Charlize Theron’s Kiss Won by A Woman in an Auction for $140,000
South African-born actress Charlize Theron auctioned her kiss for USD 140,000. But the interesting thing was that the winning bidder was a woman. The 34 year old actress took part in a live auction during a gala for the charity OneXOne, on Thursday in San Francisco.
She was initially selling a 2010 trip to South Africa that included World Cup tickets, a safari and a meet-and-greet with Nelson Mandela. Reportedly, she raised the stakes after bidding stalled at USD37, 000.
To make the deal interesting, she offered up a seven-second kiss for $130,000 to a male bidder, but a woman in the audience quickly bettered the deal with a USD140, 000 bids.
Reportedly, the actress was shocked, who is having long-term courtship with her boyfriend Stuart Townsend. She joked before the smooch by saying, “My boyfriend is not here tonight”.
The smooch lasted for 20 seconds. I wonder which one of the two enjoyed it the most.
