Charlize Theron graces the cover of W magazine June 2008 issue. The model and Academy Award winning actress is best known for her portrayal of the serial killer Aileen Wuornos in the film Monster.

The May 1999 issue of Playboy published nude photos of Theron, taken during the early years of her modeling career. Claiming they had been “for private use”, Theron ended up suing photographer Guido Argentini.

In May 2006, Maxim magazine named Theron #25 in its annual ‘Hot 100‘ issue. In October 2007, Esquire magazine named Theron The Sexiest Woman Alive in its annual issue.
