She's been a serious dancer and serious actress, and now Charlize Theron reveals that serious model could have been on the list . . . if she was willing to lose some weight.
"I had the capability to be a bigger model than I was," says Charlize, who paid her way early on with photoshoots. "They were always telling me, 'Lose five pounds and you'll be a supermodel'. But I saw modeling like waitressing — it was a way to pay for another career, and that career was dance."
Unfortunately, or fortunately — depending on how you look at it — Charlize injured her knee when she was 19, causing both dance and modeling to take a backseat to her acting career.

She's sooo gorgeous!
1Ummmm how bad did she injure her knee???
2I ripped my MCL like 4 years ago and I am sure if I had a modelling oppurtunity I would take it!
LMAO, ashcwebb.
3I don't think she's that pretty... But then again, I don't think Kate Moss is that pretty either. Hmm.
4I think she is gorgeous.
5charlize is so beautiful, she's the real thing
6She's pretty enough to have been a supermodel.
7I love her.
8shes gorgeous
9i think she is so pretty but i don't care for her personality.
10she is stunning!
11she is gorgeous. ashcwebb, i think she was referring to her dance career when she tore her knee.
12You know, I was under the impression that she had been a really big model before she was an actress. I don't know where I thought that from...
13how could you NOT think she's pretty caervan? She's gorgeous. IT's not like she's Kate MOss where she has that debatable beauty taht some people think is ugly or beautiful. She is an indisputable beauty! Anyway Charlize is too good an actress anyway to waste time being a model. Could a supermodel pull off what she did in Monster? No. And anyway Charlize is prettier than most supermodels anyway. Most supermodels are not THAT beautiful IMO.
