Its more like Angelina should be like her. Natalie has always been a smart cookie and stuff..she doesnt show it off like the other cele' to gain more publicity.

F…………………UCK YES. (notice how i DIDNT say first?!?!?!?!? its getting goddamn annoying, people..)
finally an awesome celebrity who's using her fame and intelligence (she went to harvard!) for an actual good cause, not one that just supplies kids with music in schools and shit like that (*cough BRITNEY) which is so unnecessary…go girl.

You have to love Hollywood actors. First is the yoga, then the Kaballa, then Africa, then the enviroment, they are always following trendy causes…. Such a generous bunch!…
Angelina Jolie discovered that adoptions and the UN were given her "credibility" to certain influencial circles of dummys, so she transformed herself from a freak whore to a "humanitarian". Now, Portman is following the wagon.

They are all a bunch of copycats. Until a new trend….

some nyu student is quick with their camera! i was there actually, and it was very interesting. natalie portman did a good job representing FINCA, although that's all she's doing, is giving them some press and helping them raise money. it was an interesting discussion with interesting questions posed. check it out.
p.s. she looked gorgeous, those pictures are quite horrible and the lighting was horrific.

youreyesclosed says – reply to this

51

I was there, too! She was gorgeous in person, and she definitely knew what she was talking about, since she's been with FINCA since 2003… What does it matter if humanitarianism is a trend now? Isn't that a good thing? Instead of douchebags who "refuse to follow the trend" and do NOTHING to help anyone? Idiots.

My roomate and BFF was in three classes with her at Harvard; she said that Natalie is a totally lovely person and very bright! Good for her I am glad to see SOMEONE using their celebrity for something positive. I use mine to visit this bootleg blog every day and hate myself for it LOL!!!

dude i met her. she's kind of stuck up. who cares that you went to harvard? do u have some kindness in there? somehow i don't think thats' possible.

"And there are people in my own profession I admire, who have done things and made substantial change, like Bono and Angelina Jolie. They are models for how you can meaningfully devote your life to causes. It’s not just lending your face. It’s giving yourself. A lot of people lack meaning in their lives, and that’s why getting active in issues like microfinance gives you such a center to your life" - natalie portman

Didn't she graduate from Harvard? And I'm pretty sure Natalie hasn't broken any homes…

YEAH, SHES HOT. AND SMART!
Sara says – reply to this

65

Celebrity diplomacy is such self-indulging crap. Would she had taken part in the same event if she wasn't sitting in the center of the stage? Microfinance in Africa is a hot issue now that real people have been working hard on for decades. Celebrities have a knack for picking up on other people's hard work and taking credit for it. Give me a break. Stick to acting.
AJ sucks says – reply to this

66

Perez, you're a retard to even COMPARE Natalie to Angelina. Natalie has an IVY LEAGUE degree and is a respectable, upstanding citizen, not some famewhore drug addict with a knack for stealing other people's husband's and adopting kids for publicity. If I were Natalie, I would be offended by the comparison. You're discrediting yourself to even suggest these two women are on the same level.
Joel says – reply to this

67

Portman has ALWAYS been smart and cared about the world. She was doing "Jolie-esque" humanitarian work back when Angelina was still doing Billy Bob on the way to awards shows
LOLOLOL says – reply to this

68

I'M AMAZED BY THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO THINK THIS WOMAN IS INTELLIGENT BEYOND BEING BOOK SMART. SHE WENT TO HARVARD? IS THAT REALLY THE STANDARD FOR HAVING PEOPLE LISTEN TO YOU? DOES IT LEND ANYTHING TO HER INCREDIBLE LACK OF AWARENESS? NO, IT DOESN'T. SHE'S ANOTHER HOLLYWOOD ELITE WITH HER HEAD SHOVED SO FAR UP HER OWN ASS SHE CAN'T SEE THE WORLD THE REST OF US DO — IN REALITY.
Mer says – reply to this

69

I don't agree with Perez Hilton's description of Natalie Portman as being "Angelina Jolie-ish." Natalie advocated things she believes in and makes sure that she is a proper role model for younger generations. Angelina Jolie, while her humanitarian efforts are a good thing, didn't even graduate from college. How can she go around advocating education when she doesn't have one herself?

And everyone seems to forget this, but it wasn't too long ago she was macking on her brother at an awards show…

Pshh, all "Angelina?" Yeah, she invented humanitarianism. By…. adopting enough children to create a small army and talking about all her "great works" more than anyone in the history of charity work. On the other hand, there's Natalie, who is not nearly as trailer-park as Angelina (does ANYONE remember hackers and billy bob?) actually has made some kind of effort at formal education, and is more than just a pretty face for the U.N. to use for raised public opinion in the "blind sheep" demographic. Angelina is a joke.
Lena says – reply to this

81

She is not like Angelina. Natalie Portman stands way above her, she has always been an upstanding person, not perfect, but much more likeable and charitable, not just when it makes her look good.

Looks like a worthy cause. Good on her.

i love natalie says – reply to this

84

this girl is such a great actress - but i wish she was in more movies. she is so much more real and more beautiful and talented than her peers and her choices in her career have been so diverse. she can do comedy and drama and can do accents. she isnt afraid of nudity when not exploitative and most importantly, she is using her fame to make a difference in the world like bono and angelina. u go,girl!

She's certainly not an idiot, but her SAT scores were significantly below Harvard's averages……so not only is she famous, rich, and gorgeous, but she also got a little admissions help at the best school in the country. I love her but that's nauseating

It's so refreshing to see such an intelligent, talented woman who's involved in charity because she actually cares about others, not to increase her own publicity. Natalie is beautiful inside and out!
Madison says – reply to this

92

I agree #86. Jolie pretends to be smart. Natalie is smart and she has the Harvard degree to support it! However, I don't think her dress was appropriate for the subject discussed. That's the actress part of her. Constantly needs attention. Her looks says- "Take me seriously, but please look at my greasy, gorgeous legs".
Please! says – reply to this

Actress Natalie Portman is studying to become a Psychologist at Harvard University. Actress Angelina Jolie dropped out of Beverly Hills High School at 16 years old.

Do you really think there is ANY comparison?

Don't put Angelina in the same league as Natalie Portman.
The girl attends Harvard, is one of the best actresses of our time, a humantarian and manages to look flawless with a shaved head.
Ange is a homewrecker who macks on her own brother.
Natalie Portman is lightyears ahead of Angie.
