Washington - Charlize Theron has upset Americans with comments made during a CNN interview in which she compared America and Cuba with regards to the restrictions placed on human freedom.
Theron this week made her debut as a movie producer with the movie East of Havana, a documentary film about rap singers in Cuba.
After the interview, newspapers published headlines referring to her as a "dumb blonde" and articles wondered whether she was just another Hollywood left-winger.
The New York Daily News wrote an article with the heading "Just another pretty face".
The article said that it was accepted that Charlize Theron was blonde and that now it had been proven that she was stupid as well.
Most Americans however, felt she had been treated unfairly by journalist Rick Sanchez who refused to let go of the subject while talking about the movie. There were also claims that she was quoted out of context.
Theron was criticised for saying that there was a lack of freedom in America. She said that TV reporters in the US were fired for commenting about the US war, just like rap singers in Cuba had to show their lyrics before they were allowed to perform.
Theron also said she loved America, however, and this is why she lived in the US
Where do these people come up with this crap?
From being taught drivel all their lives by their schools and the MSM media
So she expects to be put in prison and "disappeared" ?
Name one.
