The South African beauty, who’s due to appear as the Wicked Stepmother in “Snow White and The Huntsman,” and as a Golden Globes favorited bitch in “Young Adult” in theaters soon, won her first ever naked golden man for playing serial killer Aileen Wuornos in “Monster.”

She also received an Academy Award nomination for her role as a female miner fighting sexual discrimination in her rural hometown of North Minnesota in “North Country.” So we guess, she knows what she’s going on about…

Charlize, who’s been getting some Oscar buzz for being a total bitch in “Young Adult,” told Josh Horowitz her secret for winning an Academy Award.

“Maybe this is not factual, but I heard that real people win more!”

She laughs about her strategy.

“[My character] Mavis is real, for the record! I did a lot of research.”

So what Charlize is trying to say is that one has to play a true-to-life character to win an in-the-buff golden bald guy.

Being the first African ever to win the acting award in a major category, she’s got the clout to say so.

Will we be seeing another cross-armed statuette in her glass display cabinet soon?
