Single Charlize Theron reveals what men lie about on celebrity dating app Raya
Charlize Theron isn't having any luck on the dating apps, specifically, celebrity dating app Raya.
And she blames the men on the apps for it as being a beautiful, successful, wealthy celebrity isn't enough to get past the guys with photos from Burning Man.
The Old Guard actress, 49, appeared on the Thursday, June 26, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen and revealed that she is on Raya.
'Every guy has a Burning Man picture and they're a CEO, like of nothing, or like a fitness instructor.
'And then you meet with them and they're not, and they just say it up front! I'm like, "Well, why did you put that on your thing?"' Theron said. 'No, I don't like it.'
'I don't do anything with it,' Theron told Cohen, who said he's also a subscriber. 'Yes, I don't do anything with it.'
She continued, 'A friend put me on it, I went on two dates, and then I just kind of stopped.'
And Charlize has dated her fair share of celebs including actors Craig Bierko, Stuart Townsend and Sean Penn, as well as Train frontman Stephan Jenkins and model Gabriel Aubry.
She was also reportedly dating Alex Dimitrijevic in 2023.
Last week, Charlize revealed her children have 'zero respect' for her award-winning acting career.
The actress appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live looking stunning in a glamorous black blazer dress and a sheer floor-length skirt as she discussed her children's thoughts on her career.
Charlize's motherhood journey began when she adopted daughters Jackson, 11, and August, seven.
But it seems her children are not phased by the fact she's a huge movie star or features on billboards, as she told Jimmy, 'my children have zero respect for me' when asked if they are impressed by her career.
Laughing towards the audience, she said: 'My children have zero respect for me. I don't know how, it's just unbelievable.
'And then you meet with them and they're not, and they just say it up front! I'm like, "Well, why did you put that on your thing?"' Theron said. Seen here June 24, 2025
'I feel like I'm pretty humble, but every once in a while I'm like there's a f*****g Oscar right there.'
The audience and Jimmy erupted into laughter as she added: 'No, they're so not impressed with me.'
Charlize became the first South African to win an acting Oscar when she picked up the Best Actress gong for 2003 drama Monster.
Recalling picking up her daughter the day before, she explained: 'I was picking up my youngest from dance yesterday and we drove past that new Mission Impossible poster, where Tom Cruise is hanging onto some like yellow plane.
'And he just looks really cool, and my kids were with me when I shot Old Guard 2, and I worked on this incredibly intricate sequence where we brought in this amazing helicopter pilot, Fred North, and we were gonna choreograph this incredible scene.
'Like me fighting helicopters and jumping on this real helicopter and hanging off and shooting like 99 per cent of it on a real helicopter, as it's like trying to shake me off like a ragdoll, and we took two weeks to shoot this sequence.
'And I was like, "Wow, I just did that" That's really amazing. And my child yesterday, just looked at this poster of Tom Cruise and went "That's weird, he looks so much cooler than you did when you were hanging off that helicopter"
She laughed, adding: 'I was just like, "but I hung off the helicopter, like just some credit."'
Theron reprised her role as 6,732-year-old warrior Andromache 'Andy' of Scythia in the Netflix superhero sequel.
The Studio guest star also executive produced Victoria Mahoney's small-screen adaptation of Greg Rucka's 2017 graphic novel, which wrapped production way back in 2022.
Old Guard 2 is set to launch globally on the streaming service Netflix on July 2, 2025.

The Alters: unintentionally the realest game about parenting I've ever played
Other than during that golden period when they were old enough to play games and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer but hadn't yet become evil teenagers, I don't think I'm very good at parenting. When my kids were babies I felt unnecessary and useless, a feeling I have been reminded of most days since. That's OK. We can't be good at everything. I can read words backwards and upside down but I can never find my house keys. I am brilliant at dancing to the Cure's The Lovecats on Dancing Stage MegaMix but terrible at DIY. Don't get me wrong: I love my children. I like hanging out with them socially as young adults because they are smart, funny and entertaining, but then they remember I am their dad, and everything is ruined as they ask me to do stuff then blame me for everything wrong in their lives. So I took advantage of the fact that they all went away on the same weekend to have some uninterrupted dad time and sink my teeth into a game with depth, without disturbance. That game was The Alters. I loved the concept. You are stuck on a planet and have to clone different versions of yourself to operate the base and survive. That's really clever. Even better: you create the clones by looking at your life path and picking moments when you made certain decisions that led to you becoming the Jan Dolski that you are. For example, if you select the path where you went off to study rather than entering the mines like your dad did, then you clone Jan the Scientist, an ace researcher. If you went to work on oil rigs, you create Jan Worker, a load-lightener. If you decide that all you want to do is sit on your backside all day playing with words, you become Jan Writer. (Except you don't. There is no Jan Writer option, which shows how useless I would be in a survival situation.) It's a compelling game mechanic because you are not only exploring, resource building and problem solving, you are questioning the whole nature of decision making. It makes you go back through your own life, wondering at the choices you made and what could have been different. This is horribly depressing though and I wouldn't recommend it. Stick to the game's story, not your own. The problem is that the more clones you have in The Alters, the more you have to work to keep them fed, healthy and entertained. And they are needy little bastards whose first language is Whine. It didn't matter about the fresh food I gave them, the movies I sat through or the games of beer pong I deliberately lost – the Jan Miner character was determined to be grumpy and confrontational, and Jan Scientist was constantly punchably irritating. Whenever I thought I was triumphing at managing the base – helped by a system that allows you to set up automatic production of important things like radiation filters to keep you safe, and allotting different clones to regularly do specific shifts – I would have to drop what I was doing and run around doing something else for my dependants to keep them happy. You see where I am going with this? Sign up to Pushing Buttons Keza MacDonald's weekly look at the world of gaming after newsletter promotion The Alters may be pitched as a sci-fi survival game, but really? It's a parenting sim. The very last thing I want to do with my free time. My failures in the game (and there are many) are accompanied by me screaming at the needy sods to give me a break for five minutes. My neighbours probably still think my kids are still at home. I have never felt so strongly that I am the wrong person to play a game that is so right. The script and story are strong, almost like an interactive version of Andy Weir's The Martian. Philosophical concepts are bandied around, such as Camus's idea that heroism is easy, and it's doing the normal things that is the real challenge in life. And the graphics are so distinctive and mesmerising they are works of art. The space base moves around like a futuristic take on Howl's Moving Castle. The game questions the very meaning of existence and what we're supposed to do with it, and it is moving to witness the clones react to their new reality. Some hate you, others are fascinated, but all at points bond with you over shared memories of everything from Mom's pierogies and beloved lava lamps to how you dealt with your abusive father. There is imagination and intelligence in abundance. It would make an incredible novel or animated movie. And 1990s Dominik, who had no kids or responsibilities, would have found marshalling a load of interesting, talented but whiny dependants a fun novelty. It's like The Game of Life, which was a fun board game to play as kids, but hell when we had two in the back seat of our car. Maybe The Alters is the perfect game for you to play if you are thinking about having kids. In fact I urge anyone of child-bearing or rearing age to play it immediately, to see if you are up to the task in real life or if, like me, it all turns out to be too much hard work.

Kim Kardashian's daughter North West, 12, has fans all saying the same thing about her viral video
Kim Kardashian 's tween daughter North West has gone viral for appearing in influencer Chris Smoove's latest video. The 12-year-old nepo baby, whose dad is controversy-plagued Kanye West, rocked her hair in knee-length blue braids and a gothic-inspired shirt, shorts, and sneakers. Chris, who's known for profiling celebrities and their designer threads, asked North how much her outfit cost, piece by piece. And she sent the internet into hysterics as she gave the same answer for each question: 'I don't know.' Fans convened in the comments section of the post, collectively agreeing that the youngster is 'just like' her famous father. 'Daddy's daughter,' one person wrote, along with a string of crying laughing emojis and one shrug emoji. Chris, who's known for profiling celebrities and their designer threads, asked North how much her outfit cost, piece by piece. And she sent the internet into hysterics as she gave the same answer for each question: 'I don't know' Someone else said North was 'Princess Yeezy Fasho,' referencing Kanye's popular clothing line. Another social media user declared, 'She definitely has her dad's personality for SURE.' 'She just like her daddy,' influencer Nick Yardy added.' North's interview echoed her dad's 2021 chat with Smoove, during which he answered 'I don't know' for most of the questions presented to him as he rocked an all-black ensemble. The Chicago-bred rapped did, however, divulge that the watch he was wearing at the time ran him $200,000. Chris captioned this week's video featuring North, 'How much is your outfit worth? North West Pulled a YE on me,' adding crying laughing emojis. It comes after the Kim and Kanye's firstborn of four children recently celebrated her June 15 birthday on a yacht in Mexico. Another social media user declared, 'She definitely has her dad's personality for SURE' In addition to North, the exes also share son Saint, nine, daughter Chicago, seven, and son Psalm, six. They were married from 2014 until the television star filed for divorce in February 2021. West moved on with busty Bianca Censori, 30, marrying her in December 2022, the month after his divorce was finalized. Together they're known for their outlandish public appearances, which often see the Australian architect scantily clad. Meanwhile, since leaving the YZY creator, Kim has been romantically involved with Pete Davidson, and linked to Tom Brady. The 44-year-old bombshell billionaire is currently in Italy, where she's enjoying Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos' wedding festivities. The bombshell billionaire was trolled on social media ahead of the weekend for making the Bezos wedding 'all about her' as she posted racy content to social media. The lavish celebration kicked off with pre-wedding festivities at the historic Madonna dell'Orto cloisters, where A-listers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey, Orlando Bloom, and Ivanka Trump mingled under candlelight. Some of Kim's famous family — Khloe Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, and momager Kris Jenner — were also at the star-studded affair. But despite being surrounded by celebrities and an opulent setting, Kim couldn't seem to stay off her phone. She was spotted snapping selfies throughout the day — and in between her self-staged photo shoots, she slipped in a sizzling SKIMS promo, flaunting an animal print bikini on social media.

New Friday the 13th 'film' announced... and horror fans AREN'T happy about it
The Friday the 13th franchise is getting a new entry, but it's not quite what fans were expecting. Instead of a new full-length film, a short-form vignette is being produced to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the original 1980 movie. Titled Sweet Revenge, the project is being sponsored by Angry Orchard Hard Cider as part of a larger collaboration between the boozy brand and the iconic horror franchise. Sweet Revenge will be directed by Mike P. Nelson, who is also working on a reboot of the holiday horror film Silent Night, Deadly Night. 'I am so grateful that the team at Horror, Inc. saw something in "Sweet Revenge" and wanted it as a part of the Jason Voorhees story,' Nelson said in a statement. 'And to think 30 years ago I was trying to secretly watch these movies on VHS when no one was looking,' he continued. 'To have the opportunity to write and direct one of these stories is surreal – not to mention having an amazing team led by Chad Villella and Brianna Lee Johnson help me bring it to life! 'Not only is the vignette a new take on the beloved IP, it is a comforting, gory hug, reminding us why we fell in love with these movies. Much gruesome fun awaits you!' Production kicked off earlier this month, reports Variety. Fans were furious over news that the vignette won't be a full-length theatrical film. 'What are they doing what is this garbage? No Jason films for almost 20 years and now this,' commented one. 'They'll do anything but put jason back on a feature film. Yikes,' raged another. 'Wow... a short film. We've had a million of those already. What we want is a new film. This universe is a desperate joke,' a third commented. An all-new Jason Voorhees design was recently unveiled by special effects legend Greg Nicotero and will be used in upcoming Friday the 13th projects. While longtime fans will need to wait a lot longer for a new Friday the 13th film, an upcoming prequel series is currently on its way. Titled Crystal Lake, the series is being produced by A24 for the Peacock streaming service. Linda Cardellini will play Jason's mother, Pamela Voorhees. Other cast members include William Catlett, Devin Kessler, and Cameron Scoggins. Showrunner Brad Kane announced that production had officially started on the project last week. Crystal Lake has been described as an 'expanded prequel' to the original film and will most likely dive into the backstory of Jason and Pamela Voorhees.
