Charlize Theron turns to Kabbalah after break-up

London: Academy award winning actress Charlize Theron has become the latest Hollywood celeb to join Kabbalah, the Jewish sect popularised by `Queen of Pop` Madonna.

The actress turned to Kabbalah after her split from Irish actor Stuart Townsend, who she had dated for the past six years, reported a news website. The 35-year-old who raised eyebrows when she was spotted out on the town in LA with Quentin Tarantino last month, has begun attending Kabbalah classes and wearing the faith`s trademark red bracelet. Insiders say that Theron also hopes that some of Kaballah`s famous devotees, who include Madonna and Demi Moore, will help boost her career. "Charlize is wearing the thickest red bracelet, which helps ward off bad will," says a source. "Kabbalah is not just a religious interest for her - she also views it as a means to more of a social life and mixing with the Hollywood elite," added the source. PTI
