Charlize Theron was
born in South Africa. When she was a little girl (at the age of 6) she
stared to dance and she always wanted to become a professional dancer.
At the age of 16 she switched from dance to modeling.
After one year of
modeling her love for dancing prevailed which didn't last to long
because she had a knee injury. After that injury her only chance was
Hollywood.
In 1994 she was
discovered by John Crosby (talent manager) in a bank. Her first movie
was '2 Days in the Valley' in 1996. After that she acted in a few
horror movies.
