It seems to me like Charlize Theron is on a mission to prove that she’s just a regular gal. The “Burning Plain” star recently admitted that she has “fat days” like every one else and now insists that there are certain trendy items even she can’t wear.

She said: “Trends are fun but you’ve got to know what works on your body. I’ve got broad shoulders so some things make me look like an American footballer.”

Despite worrying about her sizeable shoulders, Charlize revealed her ankles caused her biggest fashion mishap when a pair of elaborately-designed shoes got tangled together on the red carpet.

She explained: “I love heels, they’re like sneakers to me. My only mishap was once at Cannes, John Galliano designed these amazing shoes that snaked around my ankle.

“I was on the red carpet in front of hundreds of photographers when one snake head hooked around the other and my ankles got locked together. I had to pose awkwardly until I managed to unhook them.” [Source]

I have a feeling that even an awkward Charlize Theron pose is still pretty damned gorgeous.

It doesn’t seem like it would be possible, but apparently Charlize Theron has fat days just like the rest of us. She talked about her bloat-blues in a recent interview with AOLNews:

“Life is just as complicated for me as it is for any other woman out there and I wake up just like ever other woman sometimes and can’t fit into my jeans and feel fat and ugly and have bad days.”

Theron deals with her complicated emotions by remembering how lucky she is to be a successful, leggy, blonde Oscar winner:

I’m incredibly blessed when you put everything in perspective, my life is incredibly blessed and I don’t take any of that for granted.” [Source]

Even though she was pressured to lose weight when she was a model, Charlize Theron refused to diet and give in to the industry pressure to slim down.

Charlize - who trained to be a ballet dancer after working in the fashion business for around two years - said: “I had the capability to be a bigger model than I was. They were always telling me, ‘Lose five pounds and you’ll be a supermodel.’ But I saw modeling like waitressing - it was a way to pay for another career, and that career was dance.”

However, the star’s fledgling dance career was cut short after she sustained a serious knee injury when she was just 19. [FemaleFirst]

Even though she refused to slim down as a model, Charlize was more than happy to gain weight to play the serial killer Aileen Wuornos in the movie “Monster” (for which she won an Oscar).

Today, most pictures of celebrities from magazines are heavily retouched.

Some Photoshop wizards decided to go further, creating completely new paragons of beauty by combining the facial features of some of the most beautiful women in Hollywood.

Try to guess who’s made of whose features (for the answer, select the blank space between the brackets with your mouse).
