“Hancock†was a smash over the weekend, pulling in over $100 million, and no doubt much of the appeal was Charlize Theron. Theron has been stunning people at red carpet entries, and now she graces the cover of Elle UK for August. Theron says she had to get down to a size six and felt very uncomfortable in that body. She felt unsexy, but not she is rocking a curvier figure in some great fashions from uber designers.
On feeling too thin, Charlize says, “I played a woman with cancer in Sweet November. I went down to a size 6 and I felt completely uncomfortable. I remember being cold and wrapping my arms around my body and feeling ribs and bone. I felt totally unsexy.â€
