Charlize Theron’s a Hasty Pudding Girl

Charlize Theron has made her way to Cambridge, Massachusetts to pick up the Hasty Pudding “Woman of the Year” award.

Spotted out earlier today at the Harvard ‘Hasty Pudding’ parade, Theron cheerfully announced, “I am Woman of the Year! If there was any question about me being a man, this should erase it,” as she boarded a rust-colored Bentley convertible.

According to a spectator, “As the caravan began its slow trek west on Massachusetts Avenue, Theron got a few smooches by the cross-dressing zanies of the Hasty Pudding Theatricals. When one of the Harvard undergrad’s wigs fell off, Theron quipped: ‘What? You’re a man?’ As her car crossed passed a three-story brick building at the corner of Plimpton Street and Massachusetts Avenue, Theron spotted a few guys perched on a balcony and yelled: ‘Take it off.’ One of the men happily obliged - lifting his shirt to reveal a hairy mess. From there, Charlize seemed very interesting in seeing more of Harvard Square, even bending down and tapping her car’s driver on the shoulder with an offer - ‘I did The Italian Job, if you want me to take over.’”

Meanwhile, later on today, Charlize will take part in a ceremony where she’ll be handed a brass pudding pot - which is given to performers who have made “a lasting and impressive contribution to the world of entertainment.”
