Charlize Theron rushes to aid guard having a seizure before the Oscars

Charlize Theron had a bit of her own drama before the Oscars. When a security guard fell victim to a seizure, the Snow White and the Huntsman actress rushed to his aid. The Examiner reports Theron and several others were present when the security guard became ill at the Dolby Theater before the program began. Theron was seen trying to help the security guard while someone else called 911. E! News confirmed the incident, stating the man collapsed while Theron was walking on the red carpet. The actress, not concerned with her fancy gown, tried to help him up. Theron reportedly did not let this affect her performance at the Oscars.

Asked what the experience had been like, she told E! Online: "Completely nerve-wracking. But how could I not dance with Channing Tatum? He's so wonderful!"

She said:"No [he shouldn't have stripped]. He's so classy--and he's about to be a dad!"
