Charlize Theron faces backlash over viral video 

Hollywood star Charlize Theron is facing backlash after publicly discussing a sexual encounter with a man 23 years her junior.

While speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast, The Old Guard actress revealed she recently had a one-night stand with a 26-year-old.

“I did just recently f*** a 26-year-old, and it was really f***ing amazing,” she said in a clip that has since gone viral, drawing mixed reactions from fans and critics.

Some questioned why she would share such intimate details publicly, while others defended her, arguing that both parties are consenting adults and no one has the right to judge.

“Imagine if a man had said this in such a crude, objectifying way. He’d be run out of Hollywood — even though it happens every day,” commented one user on X, where the video has racked up over 15 million views.

“Uhh, why is she talking about this openly?” asked another.

A woman wrote, “Good for her. No one would think twice if it were a 49-year-old man and a 26-year-old woman.”
