More pictures of Charize after the dump…

Whenever someone is vocal against marriage, there’s usually a reason they won’t marry that person. Charlize said she didn’t need a piece of paper, but whatever. From the Herald Sun:

The stunning 5ft 11in South African has told close friends that she decided to split from the Irish actor following a Christmas trip to Mexico and has since stopped wearing the antique ‘commitment ring’ that Townsend gave her as a symbol of their relationship.

A friend of the actress said: “Stuart is gutted but Charlize said that she realised during the Mexican holiday that the relationship was over.

“They had become more like brother and sister than lovers. It was she who ended it.”

Siblings…ouch. That”s the kiss of death for a relationship! How fast do you think Charlize will move on to someone else?

Charlize has always seemed like a level headed person and would make a good mom.  I imagine her doing the thing Julia Roberts did….getting married, having a baby and moving off to the desert to be a mom.  Forget Hollywood, the kids are the important thing.  From ICYDK:

The Battle in Seattle star – who is currently dating Irish actor Stuart Townsend – says she is keen to have a baby, but is no rush to get pregnant.

“I’ve always known that I wanted to be a mom. I love children. I’ve always loved children. But I’m not like, ‘Oh my god, I really must have kids right now.’ I’ve never felt this pressing urge that some biological clock is ticking. We both want to be parents one day, but I’ve no idea when that will be.

Isn’t Charlize nearing the 35+ mark?  Maybe she is already past it.  She might want to bump up her keenness if she really wants a baby the natural way.  She hits fertility treatments, yeah, we’ve got another set of multiples coming up!

Before the holidays, Charlize had said she booked a relaxing holiday for her and lover Stuart in Mexico.  Maybe she packed the same bikini as Jennifer Aniston?  Nope.  Sources near the scene say via The Daily Mail:

‘She kicked off a few times and Stuart took the brunt of it all and didn’t look very happy,’ says a poolside spy.

‘She began shouting about the lights not coming on in her room and was heard complaining about the water not being hot enough.’

It seems the couple were apart for most of the trip, with Charlize attending power yoga classes and playing golf while Stuart relaxed alone at the beach.

Awwww, poor little spoiled brat.  How about replacing a light bulb or turning the faucet to the red ‘H’?  Duh.

The sorcery part comes in to play with former leading ladies who have won Best Actress Oscar Awards, then gotten divorced or broken up with their significant other.  Those ladies include: Reese Witherspoon,Gwyneth Paltrow and Hillary Swank.  Oh crud.  Is Charlize next?

More pictures after the skip…

Charlize was surfing and playing in the water, while Stuart took pictures.  Ha! Ha!  Paparazzi were nearby to take even more pictures.  Check out Egotastic and the picture they got with a ring on her left hand.   Who wears jewelry in to the ocean unless it’s important jewelry???

Maybe it’s just a token ring.  One worth a lot of money.  But it would be nice to see her in a wedding dress and party.  I bet if she did get married, it would be a small affair in Italy, what do you think??

“We love each other and we want to spend our lives together. We didn’t have a ceremony, I don’t need a certificate or the state or the church to say otherwise. So no there’s no big official story on a wedding, but we are married. … I consider her my wife and she considers me her husband.”

In the Valley of Elah is a film by Paul Haggis. It is about a young model soldier goes AWOL after returning stateside from a tour of duty in Iraq. His father, Hank Deerfield (Tommy Lee Jones), himself a retired non-commissioned officer, goes in search of him. It soon becomes clear that his son was murdered and dismembered near a military base where he was temporarily reassigned, the chief suspects being four buddies with whom he served overseas. But In the Valley of Elah is not so much a whodunit as a whydunnit, an investigation of why a group of quite ordinary American soldiers would find themselves involved in such a brutal and essentially meaningless crime.

It is supposed to be gut-wrenching & thought-provoking. Opens today in selected cities.
