Charlize Theron & Seth MacFarlane have ‘a new relationship brewing’

Here are some new photos of Charlize Theron out in Beverly Hills with her son Jackson over the weekend. Jackson got a haircut! Charlize took him to the salon and he sat on her lap as he got a trim. Because mother and son both love a close crop, apparently. Speaking of Charlize’s hair – how righteous does it look these days? It just keeps looking better and better, right? I thought the high point was going to be the brunette fauxhawk, but I like her hair even more in these photos. Charlize just has the face and the attitude to pull off really short hair. She rocks it!!

Meanwhile, there are still lots of rumors about Charlize and Seth MacFarlane. I don’t get it. Apparently, Seth is no longer with Emilia Clarke (the Khaleesi from Game of Thrones) and he and Charlize are circling each other. Page Six seems to have started the rumor last week, and now there’s this:

Could this year’s Academy Awards have minted more than mere Oscar gold? There’s a lot of chatter coming from Hollywood that a new romance may have been ignited, thanks to a connection made at this year’s awards ceremony and the rehearsals leading up to it.

Translation: Oscar winner Charlize Theron and host Seth MacFarlane apparently really clicked while prepping for Sunday’s big show. Along with dancing in MacFarlane’s opening musical number, Theron also pre-taped one of the reaction shots for his much-discussed “We Saw Your Boobs” bit, spoofing famous actresses’ topless or nude scenes in their films.

According to folks close to Theron, the South African native thinks MacFarlane is funny, cute and charming.

“Charlize finds Seth to be a great guy who not only makes her laugh but has so much on the ball,” said a longtime Hollywood insider who has worked with Theron for years.

Reportedly, the duo not only hung out all night after the Oscars but are planning to see each other again. “This is early, but I see a new relationship brewing,” added a second source who attended MacFarlane’s own post-awards bash Sunday.

The timing of all this could work. MacFarlane isn’t dating anyone special, and Theron has been single since she and longtime beau Stuart Townsend ended their nine-year relationship last year.

[From the Chicago Sun-Times]

“MacFarlane isn’t dating anyone special” – that’s harsh for poor Emilia Clarke, who was still with Seth back in January. As for Charlize… I guess she isn’t banging Alexander Skarsgard. I can’t say that upsets me, as I was one of the few who wasn’t into that pairing at all. Charlize is also going to be directed by Seth in his new live-action movie, A Million Ways to Die In the West. So, will she be bangin’ her director? Eh, why not? Apparently they’re both single.

    The answer is quit simple really. She is thirsty. Plus am I the only one feeling that she is everywhere since last year. I hate it when the push celebs in my face EVERYDAY!! I am sick of seeing and hearing about her man.

      @oldest b; overexposed would be Kim Kardashian, not Charlize. At least Charlize is an oscar winning actress with real talent. The only talent Kim have is the talent of staying popular for no apparent reason.

      BTW I have no problem with her dating Seth; if this rings true. As long as they are good to each other, who cares who she dates.

        I said nothing about KK please don’t I blocked those people out. She is overexposed but whatever, we differ in opinion that is fine but don’t tell me she isn’t overexposed when it obvious that there is too much about her circling around. Later today there will be a post about her parking her car. Or saying something or hooking up with some guy. As for talent there are far better in her peers that outshine none of her recent works says much.

        As far as her peers doing much better work? Have you even SEEN Young Adult? One of the best female acting performaces of the past 10 years IMO. If you want to say she’s overexposed, fine (I disagree but wh’evs) but when you start questioning Ms Theron’s talent, well you lose a lot of cred, frankly.

        Really according to you. I saw YA and YAWN!!! drinking from a cola bottle, acting cold and bitchy is CT in real life no award needed. You’re a fan and her PR is working because fan or not when someone blows they blow. Monster is her best work. Everything after that is just too force like her new over exposed life.

      I think she is everywhere, ever since the baby. I mean do photogs stand around outside of hair salons waiting for celebs to bring their children in? Seems odd.

      Also this time last year is when the Alex rumours started, isn’t it? So can we expect someone else next year?

      Who to pick??

      I rarely see stars photographed with significant others. Unless they are famewhores, they seem to be able to avoid the paps.

      The paps are more interested in following around the Kardashians, Lohans, Rimes and other trash than real celebs. Stars should be thankful for these people.

        since her break-up with Towsend,she only had some rumored boyfriends (True Blood’s guy,Reynolds…)without a clue that she really was with them.
        Here she must work with McFarlane so it’s probably only a relation of work

        She dated Ryan Reynolds but there never was a picture of them. Because of this I always find it funny when people think stars couldn’t live a pretty normal life. I mean Charlize also gets papped, I guess it’s unavoidably if you live in Los Angeles. But it’s not like we know about her dating life if she doesn’t want to. We just know about MacFarlane because of the Oscars.

    But I can see her liking Seth, I think his sense of humor would attract her. But I do get a douche vibe from him. So both she and Emilia can do better.

      I think they did bang but for like a brief moment. Don’t think Skarsgard wanted something serious though. But I wonder if SM was still dating EC and then upgrade to CT you know. I am sure the whole story is not told yet where is the real gossip. *laughs evilly away*

    Well Charlize and Emilia could do better. I kind of think Emilia was with him for the press. She should have stuck with her co-star Richard Madden (not nearly famous or as rich as Seth, but at least he doesn’t scream douche to me)…supposedly those two were an item during season 1 of GoT. As for Seth, as beautiful as Emilia is, being linked with Charlize would be a feather in his cap. At least she is his age.

    These pics are so adorable! Charlize and her son are the cutest pair ever! Look at those cheeks! And her holding him in her lap as he gets his haircut. She’s a doll.

    Gossip mags are fishing with those Seth rumors. Can’t Charlize and a guy be friendly without these rumors? After all they are doing a movie together and Charlize is the kind of gal who gets along with women and men. The media has been
    desperate to link her with somebody ever since she broke up with Stuart Tonwsend. Fact is, there hasn’t been any proof at all that she ‘s dated someone since him. I love that she’s so private and focusing on being a mother.

    Now back to those pics, cutest mother/son duo ever!

        @cr: I’m not suprised that most of the sources seem to come from her people. Contrary to the popluar belief on this site, I’ve always seen her as overbearing in her pursuit of men. Not to say she must be some delicate, damsal that waits to be rescued by a man, just that ever since seeing her behavior with Fassbender, she seem overly aggressive.

        @jinni: that’s it though. I have no problem with her not sitting back and waiting for something to happen but with Alex and now Seth it just seems weird, especially for someone like Charlize, who’s a successful actress, has her own life, etc. Her ‘sources’ make her sound like teenager sometimes. It’s rather demeaning.

        And even if there is a PR element to this relationship (as there may have been with Alex as well), is this really the best way to go about it.

    I may be the only one who doesn’t get Charlize Theron. I’ve watched her interviews and the woman just comes off like a ditz and kind of mean in real life. I don’t get why people adore her and find her so stunning. She’s beautiful yes, but people treat her like some goddess or something. What did she do to warrant all this adoration? She really hasn’t been in very many successful movies lately. She looks so much like pink now too with the short hair.

      You’re not the only one add me to the list. I don’t get the excitement about her either. She was horrid in Aeon Flux, Hancock I just couldn’t relate to her story she came off cold which is how I see her in real life and SWHM jesus was she f*** horrible, she overacted that to death. I don’t get the appeal but I guess women find her attractive because that what the world wants us to be like Tall, blonde in movies.

      No, you’re not alone. She’s pretty, but no prettier than some random girls you see on the street. Hollywood always takes an average woman, and shoves them down our throats as gorgeous, when actually, they’re not, unless they were done up to the nines by a makeup artist and stylist – in which case, almost anyone of us could be considered gorgeous.

These two have good agents and pr teams because this site is not the only site I’ve been too where people rave and rave and rave about both of them. I don’t like Charlize. She seems really stuck up and snobbish. Her desperation with fassbender was all kinds of crazy and her constant praise for the guy…like people praise him, but Theron goes overboard.

      No, you’re not the only one. And from what I’ve read in the non-PR channels, she can be quite the stone-cold bitch. It’s funny how that aspect of her personality is hardly ever brought to the light. Must be something about her face and the American drawl she’s adopted that make people just assume she’s such a sweetheart.

      I do, however, give her props for adopting her son. She comes from one of the predominantly racist places in SA so I think it’s interesting that she adopted a baby who’s not white. But he looks happy and healthy, so I think that’s great for both of them.

      She won an Oscar — and actually deserved it. That role in Monster was a godsend for her. Without it, she might have been stereotyped because of her looks or relegated to romcom world, like K. Heigl, who she reminds me of.at times. But she got a great part and ran with it, so props to her.

      She has beautiful eyes, but I don’t find anything else striking about her face. She’s coventionally pretty.

      I used to really like her personality, but lately she seems to be trying too hard to be cool, which is kind of a turn off.

      The “reactions” were pretaped. That’s why Charlize, Jennifer Lawrence, and Naomi Watts were all wearing different dresses from what they came in with. Charlize wore a white strapless dress for the red carpet, a cream dress for the dance number, and a black halter dress for the “reaction” shot.

    You’re kidding right? That song reaction was a pre -taped joke and I can’t believe a week later anyone is still offended or thinking about it.Second, Seth only likes girls in their early 20′s and I am sure Charlize is too smart and mature for that windbag.Any time they’re spending together is for that western they’re doing.I bet her character is a bitch.lol

    @kasxyz Girl you are right.These white women need a class in taking care of black hair.If you’re gonna adopt them, then know how to take care of them.Drive down to Compton if you have to or ask Will Smith who they go to with his sons..Jeez.

The way she was acting with fassbender made me uncomfortable and it was just weird. She struck me as so phony and jc how does she have like the Natalie portman vocal fry voice thing? She sounds like a smoker. I loved her in arrested development and her films like the valley of Elah….might joe young (yeah yeah I loved that movie get over it), but her real life persona is so off putting.

    @mainstream, I don’t think McFarlane is anything-phobic. I think he is overall disrespectful and takes things too far at times. Also, because being of color is more visible than being white, people who do what he does and say :I slam everyone, leave me alone" are automatically kinda wrong. But I don’t worry about him actually being rude or dangerous to Jackson, or any individual person of color. He’s opportunist and out of line; it doesn’t make him a true bigot, though.

    @Everyone criticizing her for not using clippers on her son’s hair: Maybe they tried them and the sound scared him? He’s what, 2? Some toddlers are terrified of having their hair cut in any manner whatsoever, so maybe they went with the least traumatic option? It’s more important that he’s calm and happy than whether or not his hair is even.
