Scandal! I’ve actually been wondering if the bloom is off the rose for Sean Penn and Charlize Theron. It’s been about three months. Has the dong haze subsided and has Charlize finally realized that she’s been banging a guy whose face looks like a baked ham? I don’t know. Charlize was in Miami last week for a photoshoot with Mario Testino (perhaps for Vogue?) but Charlize is back in LA now. Charlize brought her son Jackson to Miami, and he returned to LA with her and they went to a kid’s birthday party over the weekend.
At the same time, Sean Penn was in Paris… with 20-year-old Blue Is the Warmest Color star Adele Exarchopoulos. They had some kind of lunch meeting or perhaps just lunch. And paparazzi got photos of them kissing goodbye. It is the French way, I suppose. Double-cheek kiss, although the photos make it look like it happened in slow-motion, and Sean Penn was really going in for the kill. Imagine being a young, up-and-coming French actress and seeing Angry McHamFace coming at you for a kiss. Sacré bleu!
So, is this anything? Probably not. Adele seems like a smart girl, although I guess we were saying that about Charlize not so long ago. I doubt Sean and Adele are in the midst of some kind of torrid affair. But! I am still wondering if the Dong Haze ™ has been lifted. What will happen if and when Charlize and Sean are over?
PS… I love Adele’s sensible sneakers-with-business-attire look. Working Girl Realness!
