During an interview with MTV News, Charlize Theron decided to get personal and diss one of MTV’s spawns—”The Hills.” In a previous interview, Charlize had claimed ignorance of the Spiedi, LC phenomenon—going so far as to say she’d never even heard of the series. But when they caught up with her this time, doing press for her latest flick Battle in Seattle, she’d done some research.

So I watched a couple episodes. I was doing a world tour at the time, so I watched them in a couple languages. I realized that this f—ing show is huge. Now I’m going to ask you a question: Why?

Why is it so big? It’s about nothing! This is a free country. Freedom of speech! You can tell me right now to my face that “Reindeer Games” was a piece of sh–. That’s totally fine. But “The Hills” is about nothing. I think the girls are beautiful and when they cry their mascara runs and that’s real, but I don’t get it! [Pause.] I am a nana. I’ll just take it. I am a nana. Maybe I need to watch the shows some more.

I was with her until the whole “nana” thing. What’s a “nana?” I did an urbandictionary.com search and came up with 1.) grandma 2.) the name of some Japanese comic series 3.) a vagina (!!!) 4.) the French word for a girl.

I’d love to learn how to speak Charlize fluently. Luckily I got the gist of her rant—”The Hills”=Sucks, and I could not agree more.
