Actress Natalie Portman (born June 9, 1981) has said, “I’d rather be smart than a movie star,” but the Harvard-educated (psychology) Golden Globe Award winner shines at being both.
When she’s not out doing things like guest lecturing on terrorism at Columbia University, where in 2006 she spoke about the political relevance of her film V for Vendetta, she’s serving as a film juror (the youngest ever) at the Annual Cannes Film Festival and taking bold chances with her look.
I’ll never forget her as the little girl who befriends a hitman in Luc Besson’s Léon (aka The Professional, 1994). She was 13 then. More than 20 films later, her star’s still on the rise.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

I loved her in The Professional and in Beautiful Girls as well – it was her earliest films that made me think that she was going to grow into a great actress! I loved her in the short crop best but I think it’s just because I wish I had small, fine features to pull that ‘do off!
Her interviews are pretty entertaining as well!

I loved her in The Professional and Where the Heart Is. She has that classic Audrey Hepburn style, too.

I’m sad more people aren’t voting for her shaved look! I think she completely rocked that. #2 looks much too Jennifer Garner-y to me. I think #1 is my second favourite!

Ha ha, number 9 (shaved head) is beating out 8 and 2 so far. I guess if anyone can pull of the shaved head it’s, it’s her. I think she’s a very talented actress and love a lot of movies that she’s been in, but the girl cannot do a British accent to save her life.
Kate & Zena says
It was a tie between 3, 5, 6 and 7 but I picked number 5.
Citrine says
I voted number 4 although I have a urge to pick no.9…she is one of the few Hollywood actresses that I find pretty no matter what she does to her face/ hair…
Marina says
Curly bob is the best 🙂 but she looks nice anyway!

I like 3 the best but I think (if I knew her haha) that she was say 1 suit her the best.
