Charlize Theron Isn't Happy With Will Smith | Letterman

[@mostcom]

This interview went off without a hitch. Charlize was unflappable which made Dave look brilliant. Charlize turned the focus on to Dave for quite some time which allowed her enough of a reprieve to continue an honest expression of her sensibilities.

[@sydneycarton9973]

Dave- 'Your Mom & Dad, were they married?' Charlize- 'Yes, they were. Then my Mom killed my Dad' Dave's response would have been iconic.

[@moorenicola6264]

Yeah I can't believe he didn't know that. In fairness her Dad was a violent alcoholic and she shot him in self defense.

[@toddmars3132]

Charlize didn't reveal the whole story about her mom shooting her dad in self-defense until some years later. Her parents had a somewhat turbulent marriage due mostly to the father's alcoholism. It's all just very sad. Charlize has a very close relationship with her mom although I'm not sure if the mom is still alive at this moment.

[@raffaelecafiero3608]

That's why she never get married. And i do understand this.

[@kendavis5853]

Dave really needs to do research bc he asks her about her parents, weren’t they happily married. Charlize mother killed her father in self defense. I just cringed when Dave asked her about her parents.

[@hawkrider88]

Yea, me too.

[@kstepko]

I didn’t know that about her. That’s a risky question anyway, but how terrible to be asked that under her circumstances. 😬

[@scottzup]

Yeah. Quite embarrassing. Happened 9 years before this interview.

[@ehdimattia]

She’s certainly proud of her looks “you have nice teeth…I do I do.”gorgeous, obvi but not humble.

[@dongraham4760]

I think what she meant was, she looked after her teeth and was proud of the results as am I of my own teeth for my age .

[@rlrudedog]

I have always liked her in movies, she is great of what I have read. She is always good on talk shows when finish not much had been learned about her, she can make a full talk show and leave everyone thinking she put it all out there.

[@kenophon]

if I judge marriage by my mom and dad she said :| She grew up on her parents' farm in Benoni, near Johannesburg] On 21 June 1991, Theron's father, an alcoholic,[8] threatened both Charlize and her mother while drunk, physically attacking her mother and firing a gun at both of them.[ Theron's mother retrieved her own handgun, shot back and killed him. The shooting was legally adjudged to have been self-defense, and her mother faced no charges.[

[@retroboomer]

Now I love her even more for calling out Wil Smith on his BS.

[@johnanthonycafe2993]

One of the most natural banters you'll see on a Tonight Show. At one stage Charlize was interviewing him and she didn't wear a mini skirt to titillate the audience when she sat down like so many young female guests do.
