Charlize Theron is in New York, promoting Atomic Blonde. James McAvoy is around too! I’m still looking for something to cover regarding McAvoy, but for now, let’s talk about Charlize. She did Howard Stern’s show yesterday and there’s one particular moment that has become a discussion point. Probably because we, as a society, love a good blind item. We love it when celebrities withhold. We love it when a celebrity drops some bread crumbs about something in their personal lives. This is what Charlize discussed:
Charlize Theron is back in the game. The Emoji Movie actress gushed to Howard Stern on Wednesday, July 19, about a romantic date she went on recently with a “really cool dude.” The actress, 44, wouldn’t reveal her new man’s name, but didn’t say no when asked by Stern if he’s famous.
“I went on a date maybe, like, a month ago,” she shared with the radio personality. “I had a great date, I’ve got to tell you. I had an incredible date. This guy really impressed me. We went for a 9-mile hike in the middle of the night. It was a full moon. But I was really impressed. It was fun.”
Theron, who ended her engagement to Sean Penn in June 2016 after 18 months together, kept mum about all the details, but sounded smitten.
“I’m not going to say where we met, but we ended up going for a walk … It was just really fun. He was super funny,” she gushed. “I think he’s just a really cool dude. It was super private … that’s what made it so much fun, too.”
The actress most recently sparked rumors of a romance when she was spotted laughing with Halle Berry’s ex Gabriel Aubry at the Santa Monica pier on May 27.
I totally forgot about that Gabriel Aubry thing – their kids go to the same school, and it would make sense if they’re friendly because of that. Maybe that was the jumping off point for something more, and the mystery man is Gabriel Aubry. Yesterday, Lainey at LaineyGossip suggested another candidate and now I can’t get it out of my head: what if someone set Charlize up with Brad Pitt??? Think about it. Wouldn’t that make so much sense? We know they have friends in common. We know that Brad and Charlize are sort of “Hollywood friends” in that they see each other at events and are generally friendly. And Charlize is frankly a better girlfriend candidate for Brad… as opposed to Sienna Miller. We also know that Charlize likes a dude with issues, because of that mess she had with Sean Penn. What I’m saying is… even if Charlize didn’t go on a date with Brad, someone should totally set them up.

If you can find the whole interview on Youtube, I would recommend listening. It’s really good…Charlize came to play. She even talked about not getting along with Toby Maguire on Cider House Rules, which I had never heard about!
That doesn’t surprise me – weird Sean Penn thing aside, I don’t think she’d put up much with idiot men. Leo’s P*ssy Posse boys would be like little fleas to her.
Little fleas. I like that description.
I know it’s likely not, but I’d love it if it was Keanu.
Unlikely, since they’ve known each other 20 years. But in McAvoy news, last night on. Colbert he talked about shaving his balls with his grandpa’s razor.
Ha! I immediately wished that too.
I think she and Keanu are more like siblings.
That would be sooo great if her and Keanu got together. I am not sure that ever happens. It is more of a fantasy. My instant instinct in this was – someone younger, a boytoy for some fun time. But then I could not come up with any names to support that. On totally different subject – whomever she is wearing it is much better than her Dior underwear outfit
Ugh. I really hope it’s not Keanu. I think he’s very sweet, and if the things I’ve heard about her unpleasantness are true, I’d want a kinder woman for KeKe. I just want him to find a lifetime of happiness, given some of the tragedies he’s faced. For the record, I’ve met Keanu. A friend of mine met Charlize years ago. We both had completely opposite experiences with them. Mine completely positive. His totally negative. That’s all I will say.
She is selling a movie she wants people to talk about her dating classic publicity.
Brad doesn’t strike me as alpha enough for Charlize. Would he have invited her to his studio to admire his artistic masterpieces or something? This sounds more like a Gabriel Aubry date, and a good one.
He’ll ask her to come over to see his etchings…
Pictures-we need to see pictures (drooling slightly)!…
Ronnie the Limo Driver with Charlize Theron might be my favorite Internet picture of the week.
Stern fan listeners should understand.
LOL
I love her hair right now. Very flattering length and style.
She and Pitt both love their weed so there’s that.
She says in the interview that she’s not smoking at all anymore.
I don’t know what it is about her face that I find so fascinating and unique. I could stare at her all day.
That said, what the heck is she wearing in that second pic?
If she was born in 1975 how is she 44?
My god she is gorgeous. ..those legs..
Charlize, I like you. Please stop talking, unless you REALLY want people to speculate about your private life. But then don’t use the “privacy” argument when it goes too far for your taste and it’s not fun anymore (or you don’t have a film to sell).
I hardly imagine Pitt able of a 9 mile hike in the middle of the night right now. Looking at him, you jut get the feeling he would cough his lungs on the pavement after half a mile.
Why? Wasn’t he fit? At least I think he looked fit in the last photos I’ve seen of him.
My guess? nobody. she’s making it up because she’s so damn tired of being asked. which doesn’t mean she’s not seeing someone.
She was born in 1968… WEEP! She is 49 and she STILL looks smokin hot. I only know this because I had to use her passport to apply for a work visa for her in 2004 when I was a junior production manager in the film industry.
Interesting… she shaved quite a few years off but she can pull it off she looks amazing for 49.
considering her choice in men, it is obviously someone awful
Charlize is selling this movie. When a celeb has something to sell no topic is off limits.
Imagine your ex starts dating Charlize Theron. Even if Angelina despises him at this point, I mean , Charlize?! That would be rough.
Why. She has a rep of being nasty.
Could the mystery date have been James McAvoy? I seem to recall he’s divorced but not sure if he’s dating anyone now…
