Fashion model turned Academy Award-winning actress for Monster — photos, style and news
Charlize Theron (born 7 August 1975) is a South African and American actress and fashion model. She rose to fame in the late 1990s following roles in The Devil's Advocate (1997), Mighty Joe Young (1998) and The Cider House Rules (1999). Theron received critical acclaim for her portrayal of Aileen Wuornos in Monster (2003), for which she won the Silver Bear, Golden Globe Award, Screen Actors Guild Award and Academy Award, all for Best Actress, among several other accolades, becoming the first South African to win an Academy Award in a major acting category.

Theron carries both halves of the fashion-celebrity definition in her job titles alone: actress and fashion model. The late-1990s film run — The Devil's Advocate, Mighty Joe Young, The Cider House Rules — established her on screen, and Monster (2003) completed the arc with a sweep of Best Actress honours: Silver Bear, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild Award and Academy Award, a first for a South African in a major acting category. The Monster role is also a famous case of an actress transforming her appearance completely for a part, the inverse of the glamour image her modelling built — and the contrast is a large part of why her red carpet appearances attract so much attention.
