shoots. Then at the age of 18 Charlize moved to New York
on her own.
She
continued her modeling career working modeling jobs when
she could land them and taking bread from restaurants
when work was thin. She was accustomed to the South African
climate so to get over her woes of the cold and wet New

school. The love for dance was Charlize childhood passion.
However, a knee injury ended her chances at becoming
a dancer and that was when Charlize decided to head to
Hollywood.

Still only 18, struggling and starving, things were off
to a slow start for the dancer and model that now wanted

just trying to the get by, and to make matters worst she
got in to an argument with a bank manager that refused

bank manager that would soon change Charlize life.
While
arguing with the bank manager, a Hollywood agent noticed
Charlize. She caught his eye with her loud out burst,
stunning beauty, and towering height. That was the big
break she ever so needed to get discovered, and eight
months later she landed her first job.
