Charlize Theron responds to those accusing her of cosmetic surgery.

While taboos around age, aging and cosmetic surgery seem to be moving towards more acceptance, actresses are not immune to societal pressure and public scrutiny. Evidence of Charlize Theron’s latest interview published this Friday, where she doesn’t mince words. Journaling the pace, the 48-year-old actress explains that people are convinced that she wore makeup. “They say, ‘What did he do to his face?’ And I’m like, “Damn, I just got old.” That doesn’t mean I had a bad surgery. That’s just how it goes.”

The actress and muse for the House of Dior seems happy to embrace this natural evolution anyway. “My face is changing, and I like that it’s changing and aging.” And Charlize Theron adds that she hates the Hollywood cliché that “men age like fine wine, and women like cut flowers.” “I despise this concept and want to fight it. But I also think women want to age in a way that suits them. I think we need to be a little more compassionate about the path we’ve all been on.”

“You are over 40, relax”

The South African-born actress also went back to gaining or losing weight for her role. “I will never make a film again saying to myself. “Yes, I will gain 20 kilograms.” I’ll never do it again because you can’t get away with it. At 27, I made it A monster (Patty Jenkins, 2004). I must have lost 10 pounds overnight. I skipped three meals and regained my normal weight. Then I did it at 43 tully (Jason Reitman, 2018) and I remember a year after trying to lose weight, I called my doctor and said, “I think I’m going to die because I can’t lose weight.” He answered: “You are over 40. Calm down. Your metabolism is not what it used to be.” Nobody wants to hear that.” Which convinces her not to yo-yo with her body even for the needs of her career.
