The Boston Traveler

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.

Unbelievable. Of all the members of the female gender in the world, Harvard University’s gleefully juvenile, occasionally humorous magazine the Harvard Lampoon has decided to bestow the title of Woman of the Year upon hotel heiress Paris Hilton.
