Why Charlize Theron is Not Impressed with her Raya Experience

Fellas, Charlize Theron needs you to level up your dating app profiles!

The Old Guard actress, 49, confirmed on the Thursday, June 26, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that she is on the celebrity dating app Raya. However, she’s not too impressed with what she’s seen.

“I don’t do anything with it,” Theron told host Andy Cohen, who said he’s also a subscriber. “Yes, I don’t do anything with it.”

She continued, “A friend put me on it, I went on two dates, and then I just kind of [stopped].”

According to Theron, “Every guy has a Burning Man picture and they’re a CEO, like of nothing, or like a fitness [instructor].” Burn!

“And then you meet with them and they’re not, and they just say it upfront! I’m like, ‘Well, why did you put that on your thing?’” Theron said. “No, I don’t like it.”

Rumors first swirled about Theron joining Raya last November amid her breakup from model boyfriend Alex Dimitrijevic.

Theron previously dated actor Sean Penn, 64, from 2013 to 2015.

The Mad Max: Fury Road star is also a proud mom to two daughters, Jackson, 11, and August, 9, whom she adopted in 2012 and 2015, respectively.

In July 2024, the Oscar winner opened up about her life as a mom to two preteens.

“Oh, my god, they’re so embarrassed by me constantly,” she told E! News. “They’re kids, they’re girls, you know? I have a preteen and I feel like I have a 9-year-old who thinks she’s a 13-year-old. It’s a lot of girl in our house. I’m just trying to keep my head above water, because they are smart and they are witty and they are firecrackers, but they do not go, ‘Oh my god, Mom, you’re so amazing.’ They’re like, ‘Excuse me, I need. I want.’”

Theron went on to joke, “They’re a**holes, but they’re really nice. Other parents know what I’m talking about.”

Though Theron is a single mom, she has previously credited her own mother, Gerda Maritz, for helping her raise her daughters.

“I knew that I would have to have my mom help me if I was going to do this as a single parent,” the actress told Elle in May 2018. “To not acknowledge her in coparenting my children would be a lie … I would feel pretty alone if I didn’t have a partner in crime in all of this.”
