Charlize Theron recently said that press coverage of her private life is so intrusive that it is comparable to rape.

The Academy Award winner told Sky News that every aspect of her life had become "fodder" for a brand of journalism that existed in a dark room.

The 'Monster' star said that she could not be concerned about what some idiot was going to write online about her short skirt as she could only take responsibility for herself.

The 38-year-old actress said that some people might relish in all that stuff but there were certain things in her life that she thought of as very sacred and she was very protective over them.
