Charlize Theron is a newcomer when it comes to social media.
While making an appearance on A Little Late With Lilly Singh on Thursday night (December 19), the 44-year-old actress revealed that she turned to Lilly to teach her how to navigate Instagram, but that she failed to mention anything about fake accounts.
Charlize admitted that she’s been messaging a social media account she thought belonged to Emily Blunt: “The one thing that you missed in your tutorial is that there’s this thing called fake accounts, which I did not know,” she said. “I was following a lot of people.”
“I was following Emily Blunt, but I wasn’t really following Emily Blunt. Somebody was like, ‘no, Emily is not on social media.’ And I was like, ‘yeah, she is, I follow her!’ That was a hard lesson to learn,” Charlize continued. “I was like writing her… like, ‘Hey Em, what’s up evil sister?’ Writing to some crazy person who’s like obsessed and probably stalking her in like a dangerous way.”
Charlize Theron also talked about her unbelievably sassy mom and tells the story of the day she got nominated for a Golden Globe for her film, Bombshell.
