Oscar-Winning Actress Charlize Theron Says it’s Hard For Her to Get Roles Because She’s So Hot
CelebritiesDirt BagCharlize Theron, an Oscar-winning hot actress, lamented her burdensome beauty in a conversation with British GQ, saying it’s hard for her to get good roles because she looks so dang good on camera.
The hot star of The Cider House Rules, Monster, Hancock, Young Adult, and Mad Max: Fury Road said:
“Jobs with real gravitas go to people that are physically right for them and that’s the end of the story. How many roles are out there for the gorgeous, fucking, gown-wearing eight-foot model? When meaty roles come through, I’ve been in the room and pretty people get turned away first.”
I’d love to give Theron a pass here, but there’s really no good way of interpreting this statement. First of all, the role of Aileen Wuornos in Monster was far from a “gorgeous” one, and yet the gorgeous actress was still given the opportunity to de-gorge-ify herself and win an Oscar!
Second of all, how dare a hot, rich, famous, and generally beloved person attempt to garner sympathy from us normals because casting directors occasionally decide to choose people less genetically blessed. The suggestion that she expects more from because she’s hot that has really gotten my morning off to a sour start.
