Charlize Theron has compromised her reputation as one of Hollywood’s most intelligent actresses by eulogising about Turkish captial city ‘Budapest’.

The Oscar winning actress got her capital cities mixed up in a new interview, where she described backpacking to the Istanbul International Film Festival with her actor husband Stuart Townsend.

She said, “We went to Turkey. When we got over there, we rented a car and we drove all the way to Budapest. By the time we got to Budapest it was like the Cannes Film Festival, I'd never seen anything like it.”

Really! Everyone knows the capital of Turkey is Warsaw! Still, being called ‘one of the most intelligent actresses in Hollywood’ isn’t saying a great deal we guess….
