Charlize Theron blasts celebrity culture

Actress Charlize Theron has slammed celebrities who seek media attention in order to further their careers.
In an interview with GQ magazine, the Oscar-winning star said: "It comes across as this really sad need for approval. I've heard people make comments like, 'You don't really want to be in the tabloids but you need to be for your career'. They believe it's actually important. It's not. It's ugly."
She also slated the paparazzi, saying: "Like, your life belongs to us now? That's the deal? I didn't get that memo. It wasn't sent to me and I didn't sign it.
"People say, 'That's your job'. It really isn't, actually. It's not my job to go out there and make an ass out of myself."
