Natalie Portman Shaves her Head

[plasticine20]

I think most people do care, and it's even more prevalent in the movie industry, where your looks and your actions are constantly scrutinized. She has a good point to be wondering right away what people might think.

I don't think it's lame, it's just what humans do. If you're constantly under close scrutiny, and did something like this, you'd wonder what other people would ultimately think, not just your friends or family. The average person's appearence isn't speculated upon and dissected half as much as a celebrity's appearence is on a daily basis by so many people, that I think she's fully justified to have a slightly different viewpoint than most of us.

I agree People read too much into celebrity quotes/actions.

it's true, especially with the added factor of tabloid magazines and such, I think it would be normal for her to try and predict the odd things people might say about her doing this

No biggie: she still looks beautiful. Besides, its ONLY hair...it'll grow back soon enough.

First of all, she's getting paid for it. It's for a role, if she wanted the part it more then likely involved for her to shave her head. Its been done before.. Remember alien??? Regardless if it suits her or not, she got paid and she's in a movie. I'm not suprised that she commented on the cancer patient because gossip is very much a part of her daily routine and the nazi comment is explainable as well her being israelie... Some moron out there may say something as stupid as such.
Whether she wears a pink wig or shaves her head... We are still discussing it! It may already be worth it for her and the movie her shaved head is advertising

 

[LoveKylie]

she can pull it off, in the way Demi Moore also did.

 

[Erin]

Well, if anybody has the facial features to pull off a shaved head, I suppose Natalie Portman would be among them... But still.

 

[Bonchic]

I wanna see pictures I can't see the one Kimair posted

 

[Miss_A]

Hmmm I can't see that pic either!

I think it's great that she shaved her head . . . so brave, even if she is getting paid for it. I would almost welcome an opportunity like that to shave my head because I often wonder what it would look like but I see no real reason to do it.

I also don't think that her comments about people perceiving her as a lesbian or a neo-nazi are ignorant, because I know that I would probably entertain the same thoughts. A few months ago I cut my hair shorter than it has ever been after having long hair for years and was definitely concerned about people perceiving me as butch because I wasn't sure how short it would be . . .

hold on a second there

yes, but do you remember the letter she wrote back to the magazine when she found out that she was mis quoted!!! and that people misinterpreted her....she is sooo eloquent and smart, dont kid yourself

sometimes she says the weirdest stuff...remember in allure when she said she knew what it felt like to be black??

 

[ChrissyM]

here is an image . . . can't really see that much . . .

 

[DreamsAreMade]

yuck. I hate it. But I give her credit for taking a risk.

 

[morgan38]

we...I'm not sure I like how it looks, but like dreams are made said, I give her credit for taking a chance.

 

[snowqueen]

Id have to see a picture before i judge it could look ok.

 

[snowqueen]

It actually looks better then i thrort it would.

[morgan38]

really? it looks worse than I thought it would

 

[brian]

i think she looks gorgeous bald

 

[Bonchic]

I think she looks good too.. I mean that pictures not the best but I think because of her strong facial features and big eyebrows that she can pull it off for sure

 

[lovesit]
