Charlize's Battle is Full of Margaritas and Pet Names

PopSugar — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 12:54:09 -0700

Stuart Townsend and Charlize Theron posed together yesterday at a special screening of their film Battle in Seattle in Beverly Hills. The couple have been having a blast promoting the movie together, joking about what Charlize had to do to get the role and how embarrassing it was when she called Stuart his pet name on set. Whether she's downing margaritas and singing on The Tonight Show or asking why The Hills is so popular, Charlize's giddy energy is really showing through. She recently revealed how she makes her relationship with Stuart work in an interview. Charlize said:

"The secret is that it’s all about the person you’re with. It doesn’t matter what you do. I don’t believe that an artist can’t go out with a banker. I think it’s about the personal connection. When you’re with somebody good who’s looking out for your best interests and loves you in every possible way, then how could there be a jealousy? Nothing makes me happier in my day to know that he got a good review or that this movie is getting some really great buzz. Those things actually turn me on. I’m sorry."

No need for apologies from Charlize who always looks happy to support Stuart, especially on this project so close to both of their hearts.

PopSugar — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 05:00:00 -0700

Charlize Theron took advantage of the warm weather in New York with a little plaid dress she wore on The View yesterday before joining her man Stuart and costars for a screening of Battle in Seattle. Charlize always manages to look fabulous from the red carpet to the beach, and her efforts earned her a spot as one of People's 10 Best Dressed Stars of 2008. While we're not sure if we agree with some of the other honorees, Charlize's style continues to impress us even after the results are in.

Charlize Breaks From Hancock to Battle With Stuart

PopSugar — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 15:30:24 -0700

Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend cozied up for the cameras to show off their documentary Battle in Seattle at a screening in LA yesterday with the likes of Matthew McConaughey and Camila. While they managed to keep it G-rated on the red carpet, Stuart joked that Charlize had to sleep with him in order to win a role in his movie, to which she replied, "You’re still making me sleep with you.” His lady may be happy to playfully flirt with co-star Will Smith on those Hancock red carpets, but it sounds like Charlize is still having the most fun with her main man.

Movie Preview: Battle in Seattle

BuzzSugar — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 08:30:45 -0700

The directorial debut of actor (and boyfriend to Charlize Theron) Stuart Townsend, Battle in Seattle is a fictional account of a protest gone awry in Seattle in 1999. As the World Trade Organization prepared for a summit, activists from all over the world made plans to disrupt the meetings. This film is Townsend's attempt to convey the chaos and fear that overtook the city when ideologies clashed.

According to the trailer (which gives me chills), the movie will take a look at the ordeal from many different points of view - from the police officers, to the WTO organizers, to the peaceful protesters and their clash with activists looking to make a more destructive statement.

This was big news at the time, but it slid under the radar after 9-11. I'm curious to see if the film brings something interesting to the table that will make these events relevant to today's audiences.

The movie will open at the Seattle International Film Festival in May, and will release to a wider audience in September 2008. To check out the trailer, read more.

Charlize Is Skipping the Fancy Frills of the Oscars This Year

PopSugar — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 03:30:01 -0800

Charlize Theron looked gorgeous in her funky metallic dress on Stuart Townsend's arm at the Meteor Irish Music Awards in Ireland on Friday. The couple then went casual for a screening of Battle in Seattle at the Dublin International Film Festival on Saturday. Charlize is getting into the awards show circuit abroad, however don't expect to see her on the red carpet at the Oscars. She's planning on watching the show from home, saying, "I think it's a special thing if you get a nomination, or your film does. Then you go. But we don't have any nominations or anything like that in the house, so we sit in our jammies and watch it on the couch."

We don't blame Charlize for wanting to keep things comfy and casual, especially since the show can be fun even when watched from home. Want to make the Oscars even more exciting? Be sure to fill out your ballot for the chance to win some sweet prizes. Lots more of Charlize and Stuart so read more

Charlize & Stuart Are Married! Kinda

PopSugar — Thu, 13 Sep 2007 15:02:44 -0700

Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend have been together for almost seven years now, and if you've been wondering when the wedding will be, you could be waiting for a long time. Apparently these two decided to skip the ceremony and the legal binding and jump right to calling each other husband and wife. Here's more:

"I'm married," Townsend told PEOPLE this week. "I didn't do a church wedding or anything, but we're married. We're husband and wife."

"We love each other and we want to spend our lives together," the 34-year-old actor said about his nearly seven-year relationship with Theron, 32, who he calls "the greatest woman I've ever met."

"We didn't have a ceremony," he added. "I don't need a certificate or the state or the church to say otherwise. So no there's no big official story on a wedding, but we are married. ... I consider her my wife and she considers me her husband."

Well, to each his own right? We would've loved to see beautiful Charlize all decked out in white, but we all know by now that she's not always the most traditional type of girl.

Charlize's Battle in Seattle

PopSugar — Wed, 06 Dec 2006 15:46:19 -0800

Charlize is in Vancouver working on her latest project Battle in Seattle. The movie is about 5 intense days of protesting in Seattle against The World Trade Organization in 1999. We're betting Charlize is super excited to be making this film because she gets to work with her cute man. Not only is Stuart Townsend making his directing debut for the film, he wrote the story as well. Battle in Seattle also stars Woody Harrelson, Joshua Jackson, Susan Sarandon and Channing Tatum.

Charlize and Eva Show Their DNC Support in Denver

Molly — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 02:03:00 -0700

The Democratic National Convention rolled on last night with another rousing series of speeches, including from Hilary Clinton, and more stars arriving in Denver. Charlize Theron, a new US citizen and voter, was out with Stuart at a screening of their movie Battle in Seattle. Meanwhile, Eva stopped off to check in with the MySpace computer station. Naturally Anderson Cooper was there to cover the event, but what can I say, I'll take any excuse to post him. The same goes for Kal Penn, my recent fair game foe. Of course, these are just a few of the stars expected to make appearances this week - our Citizen girls have even had celeb sightings themselves.

To see more of the stars at the DNC, just read more.
