Theme of racism is very worried about Theron

Her interview with the Hollywood star began with the fact that she told about her dark-skinned children, because she brings up two adopted children. Here are some words about this issue, said Charlize:

"For me, the topic of racism is very acute. I have often noticed that this moment in the US is strongly hushed up, although the attitude towards black people in society is not very positive. After I became a mother, I realized that my children in this country could be in danger. I am so worried about them that if there is a chance of racial discrimination, then I will have to leave the US. "

After that, Teron told about why she adopted children:

"You know, when I was little, I always asked my parents to adopt someone. I was not sure why in South Africa, where I grew up, there are so many orphans and abandoned kids. When the question of my motherhood arose, I decided that my children would be adopted. I do not see any difference between the kids that I took from the shelter and those that I would have given birth. Now, looking at my kids, I have no feeling that I missed something in this life. I'm insanely happy mom! ".

Charlize spoke about changes in appearance for the sake of the role

After that, the interviewer decided to ask Theron questions related to her career. Most of all he was interested in changes in the appearance of the actress, because for the sake of roles in the tapes "Monster" and "Tally" she recovered by 15 kg. On this occasion, Charlize said this:

"After I saw the script" Monster ", I decided that I will definitely be in this film. At the time of work in it, I was 27 years old and gaining weight, getting rid of him, did not affect me. After the shooting was over, I simply stopped snacking between meals for a month and removed the sweet from the ration. My weight returned very quickly to me. As for work in the film "Tally", then everything was much more complicated. I shot in it when I was already 40 and, as my nutritionist said, the extra 15 kg will be very difficult for me to lose. And here the question is not only in getting rid of excess weight, but also in the fact that in order to gain the necessary kilograms I constantly ate carbohydrates and sugar. Because of this, I started a terrible depression, which took place only after the shooting in the tape were over. However, after that, I ran into another problem, the one called "strict diet and debilitating workouts." Unfortunately, just stop snacking and limit yourself in sweet to no avail. It was extremely difficult to get rid of the extra centimeters. This I was engaged in almost 4 months. It's a lot ... ".

The famous actress decided to finish her interview by saying that she did not understand the actors who do not change for the sake of roles:

"I believe that our profession simply obliges to be different. How can you play the mother of three children, who gained extra pounds, if you do not feel this burden on yourself. For me it's just unthinkable. Most recently, I was faced with the fact that one of my colleagues watched the film "Tally" and said that he would never be able to recover or lose weight for the sake of the role. I believe that this is completely wrong and unacceptable, because playing such a character, you try on his "skin".
