Charlize Theron Shares Her Special ‘Bachelor’ Watching Ritual: ‘I Date the Show’

Charlize Theron will be in Bachelor withdrawal this coming Monday.

“I basically feel like I’m dating The Bachelor, like, the show,” she revealed during a Thursday, March 8, appearance on The Late Late Show. The 42-year-old even has a special ritual that involves tricking her children Jackson, 6, and August, 2, into early lights out.

“On Monday nights because my kids can’t read a clock yet,” Theron told host James Corden. “I get them to bed at like 5:45 and then I open a bottle of wine, take a bath. I get all ready and that’s my date night. I date the show.”

When Corden, 39, inquired about who the Oscar winner would like to receive a rose from, she replied: “No, I don’t want to be on the show. I just want to watch.”

“I kept saying, ‘You have to stop,’ and he wouldn’t stop,” she recalled. “He kept going with the story until I actually urinated myself. Not drizzle, I had to go back to the hotel, that’s how hard he made me laugh.”

Oyelowo didn’t realize what was happening. “She ran out,” he quipped. “And I looked at the chair.”
