Oscar Winner Charlize Theron Feted at Harvard
Lovely 32-year-old actress Charlize Theron traveled to Harvard University in Cambridge on Thursday and showed everyone what a classy person she is. The occasion was the formal bestowal of a Pudding Pot for being named Hasty Pudding Theatrical’s most recent Woman of the Year.
As is customary, before receiving her honor, Theron participated in a public parade through the streets near Harvard Yard. Tons of onlookers stood nearby to get a look at her and the Hasty Pudding male members dressed up in flamboyant, costume-y drag … but mostly her.
I love the way Theron stated at the beginning of the outdoor spectacle, “I am Woman of the Year. If there was ever any doubt that I’m a man, it’s been erased.” Cute — now we all know she has a good sense of humor, too.
The video following the jump comes courtesy of the local publication the Cambridge Chronicle. Take a look to see for yourself just how charming and fun Theron was during the festivities. If you didn’t like her before, how can you not now?
Also, stay tuned for coverage of actor Christopher Walken’s journey to the Square next Friday, when he’ll drop by to accept his very own Pudding Pot for Man of the Year while no doubt entertaining onlookers at least as much as Theron did yesterday.
