Caption: TEARS OF JOY: South African-born Academy Award winner Charlize Theron (r) bursts into tears as former South African President Nelson Mandela publicly lauds her success in Hollywood. "I love you so much," she said at a recent gathering at the Nelson Mandela Foundation in Johannesburg. The elder statesman replied that Theron's blossoming career shows the present South Africa is different from the country that suffered the scourge of apartheid. Theron won this year's Best Actress Oscar for her turn as a serial-killing prostitute in the film, Monster.
