"When Charlize Theron was preparing for her role as woman-child Mavis Gary in Young Adult (AKA the female version of pretty much every character Seth Rogen has ever played), she knew the one wardrobe item that would instantly convince the audience she was an immature, dissatisfied grown-up permanently stuck in an emotional junior high: Hello Kitty T-shirts! During a New York Times &amp;quot;Times Talk&amp;quot; panel last week, the actress revealed that her role in the new film (written by Juno&amp;#x27;s Diablo Cody) called for a certain kind of sartorial slacker-ism: &amp;quot;I said to the costume director, &amp;#x27;Get me some Hello Kitty T-shirts.&amp;#x27; Those were my demands.&amp;quot; Why the &amp;amp;uuml;ber-adorable cartoon kitten? &amp;quot;I&amp;#x27;m pretty amazed by Hello Kitty,&amp;quot; Theron said. &amp;quot;I see so many women in their 30s walking around in Hello Kitty sh*t and nobody is concerned for them. It&amp;#x27;s the one iconic teenage symbol that seems okay for women in their 30s? The world seems to not have an issue with it.&amp;quot; So, that begs the question...do you have an issue with it? Are you okay with grown women wearing Hello Kitty (did you see Katy Perry on the &amp;quot;J-Pop Talk Show&amp;quot; on last week&amp;#x27;s Saturday Night Live? Complete Kitty enthusiast!), or does it kinda creep you out? &amp;#x27;Fess up, do you own any of the Ts Charlize is ripping on? What would you say if your BFF showed up to a party wearing one? Discuss! PLUS! - OMG, Diablo Cody is doing a Sweet Valley High movie AND... - Steal Charlize&amp;#x27;s chic look from the premiere!
