Charlize Theron provedshe's not only gorgeous, but hilarious as well while she presented her AMillion Ways To Die In The West co-star Seth MacFarlane with the Genius Awardat the Critics' Choice TV Awards on Sunday. Dressed in a stunning black fitted Cushnieet Ochs dress with several cutouts and a thigh-high slit, the 39-year-old joked that the Family Guy creator only madethe 2014 comedy western so that he could make out with her.

"He made A Million Ways to Die In The West, which let’s be honest was just a $40 million excuse to make out with me," she told the audience at the televised awards show in Beverly Hills.
