5. Charlize Theron
Oscar Win: Best Actress (Monster)
Pretend Job: Destroyer of Stereotypes
Real Job: Mannequin When Charlize Theron first burst onto the scene in Two Days In The Valley, she was just another model cum actress. But she went on to defy all expectations and stereotypes with her blistering turn in Monster, playing real life murderer Aileen Wuornos and picking up an Oscar for her troubles.Where would she go from here? Would she become the next Meryl Streep? Er, no. She actually reverted to being nothing but a pretty face again for a series of campaigns for both Dior and Raymond Weil. What's even worse? She allegedly broke her contract with Raymond Veil and was sued. They settled out of court which means she might need a few extra bucks. Expect another vacuous commercial advertising something 90% of the world's population can't afford coming soon to a TV set near you, then.
