Charlize Theron is getting candid about her personal life. The actress, 47, spoke with Harper’s Bazaar for their October cover issue all about parenting, navigating the dating world and her experience after 25 years in Hollywood. "I feel like I’m at a place where it is what it is," Theron said of her career. "Working more isn’t, I think, going to change my level of fame.

It just has always been a mediocre ride. I’ve never been one of those people that’s at a Kim Kardashian level. But I feel like it’s just always been this thing."

At 16, she came to America to start a career in modeling, which was the jump start to her career. "I didn’t grow up in America," Theron said, "so I always find myself kind of trying to keep my head above water with the school system and exams, because it’s not familiar to me.

My education was just so different than what my kids are having in America. And so there are a lot of bells and whistles that come with being a parent that I didn’t grow up with." The "Mad Max" star touched on how Hollywood was when she started her career and said she had to be "loud" to be noticed.
