Sean e Charlize em Londres

Guests at the Dorchester Hotel in London were bowled over by a heady cocktail of Northern brawn and Southern charm on Wednesday evening, when Sean Bean and Charlize Theron set flashbulbs blazing in the upmarket venue.

Sheffield's favourite son was snapped arm in arm with the South African actress, who made a stunning style statement in a three-piece black silk trouser suit, as they arrived for a photocall to promote their new film North Country. The South African actress has been nominated for an Oscar for her role in North Country.

The blonde bombshell, looking characteristically radiant at the event, assured reporters she doesn't always manage to look quite so perfect, though...

Pois, pois! Está SEMPRE linda!
