Natalie Portman: engaged & had a baby boy!

[dajrekshn]

tho i've yet to see Michelle and Nicole in their "Oscar" movies this year i have to say that Natalie did nothing (emotionwise, awardwise) for me in Black Swan, IMO she was even the weakest link of (an already merely okay) movie. always thought she had an "overrated" image, now next to it i find her talent as dubious.

all of the girls this year are pushing it hard, Portman had luck to get another thing to be talked about and it might just be part of the public that Aronofsky and she herself might've had hard time penetrating up until now, this softens her image quite a bit.

Random..

HAHHA I tought the same

Then I did remember that she is almost 30 years old
and in that age people udsually start
thinking about getting kids and getting married.
NOT ALLWAYS, but often.



Anyway, Congrats to them!
Black Swan has really been life changing experience for her.

I'm surprised! But I'm happy for Natalie, as this is hopefully happy news.

 

[fantastical]

Didn't see this coming.

I always imagined her marrying some high-brow intellectual or some dashing tycoon.

you get two snaps! I SO agree to this statement. she comes across as very pretentious, so marrying some choreographer is shocking to me. and no, I don't expect this to last whatsoever, but hopefully it will work for the kid's sake

actually, benjamin is pretty much the most pretentious, self-centered and egotistical person I have ever come across in my life. in that sense they work together.

I wonder what her father thinks. lol. Maybe the engagement is mandatory.

I was thinking that too, I heard her dad is pretty old-fashioned. She just never seemed like someone who would get married -- I'll believe when it happens.

 

[redhearts]

I was surprised. She doesn't seem like the motherly type yet, but congrats to her.

Little Luke is coming...

My boyfriend - who has long adored Portman - is hidden away somewhere quietly weeping... ;0)

 

[jun3machina]

^ i think a legion of fanboys who adore her are in the same boat, weeping across the world in an international day of mourning.....

I wonder what her father thinks. lol.

"Thank God this didn't happen with Devendra"?

Have we seen pictures of her bf?

Could you please be more specific ? Why would this pregnancy guarantee her an Oscar ?

hey, I think others kinda answered it but I meant that the Oscars love a good sentimental story. and beautiful pregnant engaged Natalie is the kind of thing that gets votes and gets ratings. there are so many politics around the oscars and campaigns, and winning often has little to do with who was actually the best performance (not saying Natalie wasn't good). But the whole image of perfectly glowing 4-5 months pregnant natalie winning will be hard for any other actress to beat.
