Charlize Theron has 'zero interest' in dating fellow Hollywood stars: 'Not a good thing'
Charlize Theron has opened up about her dating life, saying she has “zero interest” in striking up a romance with a fellow Hollywood actor.
Appearing on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast Wednesday, the “Old Guard” actress lifted the lid on her dating likes, dislikes and everything in between.
“No, my god. No, no, no,” the Oscar winner, 49, said when asked if she wanted “a man in the industry.”
“I don’t think that dating somebody in my industry is a smart thing. I’m not saying it’s impossible. I’m not saying that it’s not binary. I just think that in general it’s not a good thing for me.”
Theron opened up about her dating life as a single mother of two adopted daughters: Jackson, whom she adopted in 2012, and August, whom she adopted three years later.
“I don’t have to share them with somebody,” she said of her girls. “I love that I don’t have to run every f–king thing by a guy.”
“I can tell that no man’s moving into our house while my daughters are there,” she added.
Theron said that while she’s open to long-term commitment with a partner, she’s not looking to tie the knot anytime soon.
“I’m not missing a relationship. I’m not missing the partnership that I think people think you miss when you’re me,” she explained.
Elsewhere during the interview, the actress detailed her colorful experience with one-night stands — including one with a 26-year-old.
“I’ve probably had three one-night stands in my entire life,” she said. “But I did just recently f–k a 26-year-old and it was really f–king amazing. And I’ve never done that. I was like, ‘Oh, this is great. OK.’”
She admitted that when it comes to one-night stands, she “should have done this in my 20s.”
“I’m having the kind of sex I never had in my 20s or in my 30s,” Theron said. “We should be the ones that are like f–k you. I’m going to have an orgasm.”
Theron has had several high-profile relationships over the years.
The actress dated Craig Bierko from 1995 to 1997, before striking up a romance with Third Eye Blind frontman Stephan Jenkins, which lasted until late 2001.
That year, she began dating Irish actor Stuart Townsend after meeting him on the set of the crime thriller “Trapped.” The pair’s lengthy romance came to an end in 2009.
The “Monster” star’s last public relationship was with Sean Penn, which kickstarted in 2013. The pair called it quits two years later.
