Charlize Theron looks beautiful as Vogue's October cover girl where she manages to make cowboy hats and chaps look glamorous and sexy. Charlize has proven that she's much more than just another pretty face and in the article she talks about her frustrations with Hollywood's obsession with looks and exposure. Here are highlights:
- "Doing press on North Country really pissed me off. 'Yet another transformation!' And I was like, I didn't do anything! I went into a mine and I got dirty. I was doing press in Rome, and I had to walk out of one interview. The journalist said, 'Another ugly role!' Then I heard Bill Maher make a joke about it on TV. 'You know what, Charlize? Seriously, like, we get it. Enough with the ugly roles.' I just went, It's so unfair. I understand what happened with becoming Aileen. But to try to put that on every other character I play? It's like I have to walk such a fine line because I don't want people to think I'm a one-trick pony."
- "...but there's a sadness in that the longer you stay in this career, the harder it becomes to get people to sit in a theater and not focus on your looks. Maybe that's why I try to keep my private life so private and why I don't want to be an InTouch celebrity. It's why I don't have any patience for paparazzi. It's just not something that helps me at all."
Charlize makes a good point but like any actress, you have to deal with highs and lows, even if it means suffering through some backlash. Besides, she's been rewarded twice with Oscar nominations (and one win) so she must be doing something right.

6She looks great, and I love the skirt/belt in the cover shot.
7She's fantastic and gorgeous!
8I love the cover shot a lot but she loses me when she opens her mouth. It's like Michelle Pfeiffer, constantly whining about being beautiful and how much of a burden it is. Shut up already.
9I LOVE the cover!
10CHARLIZE! I love Charlize.
11don't like her
12she's amazing! so gorgeous!!
13Has she wrestled a real calf in that photo? man, she's into this photo shoot! most western shoots, the model barely gets dirty.
14Beautiful lady and Fantastic photos! Cowboys and Wild West - I've always had fondness for them!
15The photographs are beautiful. As is she...but what the heck is she complaining about? She's well respected and managed to keep her life in control...and if your gonna be a "one trick pony" might as well be the pony that gets oscar nods!
16She comes off as a snob sometimes. She's constantly moody in the public eye. I get what she's saying though about everyone categorizing her. She IS one gorgeous, stunning woman.
17i like her, but i think it's annoying when celebs complain about their looks. they say they don't want their looks to be the focus, but they keep putting the focus back on their looks.
18"but there's a sadness in that the longer you stay in this career, the harder it becomes to get people to sit in a theater and not focus on your looks" - well said Charlize.
19Just shut up. I am sure you are not complaining about your looks when you are cashing in those multi million dollar checks or get nominated for awards. She is always a snob.
20beautiful.
21AMAZING
22Her interviews are always so smart and refined. IMO she's one of the Old Hollywood set (Nicole Kidman, Kate Winslet...) that don't turn exhibitionist for every flashbulb and know how to construct a thought and a sentence... AT THE SAME TIME!
