#CharlizeTheron hosted the fifth annual Block Party for her Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project (CTAOP) on Saturday night, where she got real about how, in 2025, “the world feels like it’s burning.”⁠ ⁠ Theron took the stage to kick off the event on the Universal Studios backlot, and joked, “I think we might be the only people who did not get an invite to the Bezos wedding. But that’s OK because they suck and we’re cool.”⁠ ⁠ She went on and thanked the crowd for showing up and got candid about global setbacks: "Immigration policy has destroyed the lives of families, not criminals; women’s rights are becoming less and less every day; queer and trans lives are increasingly being erased; and gender-based violence is on the rise. This isn’t just policy, it’s personal.” As the crowd clapped, she added, “Yeah, f*** them.”⁠ ⁠ More details at the link in bio.
