What I learned about celebs while watching them eat: Emma Stone introduced herself to Meryl Steep at one point, George Clooney laughs at everything and loves whispering in people's ears, Charlize Theron is friends (friendly) with the ladies of “The Help,” Busy Philipps and Michelle Williams are besties, and Leonardo DiCaprio doesn’t mingle much.
Variety Executive Editor, Steven Gaydos, said:
“Charlize Theron continues to make an impact by committing herself to films
In Young Adult, Theron is still gorgeous, but her character doesn’t exactly have the most beautiful personality. Charlize tapped into her sarcastic, bitter and condescending side for the role.
Hollyscoop asked the actress how she feels about playing more sloppy characters in her films.

Anyways, Charlize Theron says she’s never been on a proper date because she’s always in a serious relationship. So she’s never had to deal with the awkward blind date or the “wow-you-looked-different-at-the-bar” date or the “our-friends-think-we’d-like-each-other” date.
Theron was with her partner Stuart Townsend as long as she can remember, well 9 years to be exact, and says they were even calling each other “husband and wife.” Before she got with Townsend she was in other long-term serious relationships for 10 years prior. She’s basically been “in relationships” for 20 years.

In the video, Miley was presented with a Bob Marley birthday cake. And it wasn't because she loves Reggae music. It was because, as she put it, she's a "huge stoner." Her rep later claimed she was just joking.
If it’s true, not to worry, Miley. You're not alone. There are plenty of celebs who smoke weed, some of them even talk about it openly. Hollyscoop brings to you 12 celebrity stoners.
Matthew McConaughey: That's not smog in Los Angeles, it's weed smoke coming from Matthew McConaughey's house. Matthew was notoriously arrested for possession of marijuana in Austin back in 1999. Neighbors called complaining about the noise, and when police arrived at McConaughey's home, they found him dancing naked playing bongo drums. Must have been some good stuff.

“I wore really nerdy glasses because I was blind as could be and the boys didn’t like [me],” Theron tells People mag, “I didn’t have any boyfriends, but lots of crushes.”
Wow, she sounds just like..my friend I know, or so I’ve heard…from this friend.
During grade school she was so unpopular but desperately obsessed with becoming popular that she did really creepy things to get close to the cool kids.
She’s starring in the new Jason Reitman directed flick, “Young Adult” and in next years “Snow White and the Hunstman.”
Charlize got super candid in an interview with Vogue where she covers the December issue of the mag and opened up about being single for the first time in 10 years, wearing fake silicon boobs inserts when she was younger and what she really thinks about working with Kristen Stewart. Oh and Theron cusses like a sailor. Keep Reading.

“I did that horrible, embarrassing thing. I just really, really, really loved Up in the Air.”

If you’ve seen the action packed/sword fighting/axe wielding drama that is the trailer for the new Snow White flick, it’s no surprise that Kristen Stewart has been badly maimed as a result of filming the fight scenes in the movie.
Last month, Max Manganello who plays a soldier in the film tweeted that K-Stew got hurt while filming and they had to cancel shooting for the rest of the day.

Once again, Theron stuns, not just with her hotness, but also with her Oscar-winning acting skills. The trailer suggests that Theron sucks the beauty out of women and absorbs it for herself. Theron plays the Evil Queen, who can't stand other women being prettier than her. So she asks her mirror the legendary question: "Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?"
And the mirror responds, "You are, but uh, there's kinda someone else who's like, almost as pretty as you." (in so many words). From there, Kristen Stewart, who plays Snow White, is introduced. And I mean, Kristen Stewart is cute and all, but really? Comparable to Charlize Theron? I don’t know about that.

Theron tells Germany's In Touch magazine, "I want a baby. If it would happen tomorrow I would be very happy."
When asked if she would consider adopting as a single mother she said, "Why Not? I'm open to everything in life." Charlize has previously spoken out about adoption when she said, "There are so many unwanted children on this earth and it's our job to care for them. And if we don't we're doing the world a disservice."
But in this day and age if a single woman wants a baby, she should get a baby. Here are the other single moms who made the decision to adopt.
