Holy hell! This came out of nowhere. According to People Magazine, Natalie Portman is engaged to ballet dancer Benjamin Millepied, and they are expecting their first child together. There is no word on how far along Natalie is, but I would guess she’s probably at the end of her first trimester, because I haven’t really noticed a “bump” at all. I did notice her boobs though – her boobs were looking bigger, and perhaps I mistook her parade of bitchfaces for something sinister, when really she was just pukey and gassy. Poor Nat! Anyway, Natalie and Benjamin met when they worked together on Black Swan – he’s a professional ballet dancer, and he helped Natalie train for her role. It was widely thought that Natalie had “homewrecked” Benjamin from his live-in girlfriend, although there was some other gossip just recently that Benjamin is kind of obsessed with social climbing.
Natalie Portman and choreographer Benjamin Millepied are engaged and expecting their first child, her reps confirm to PEOPLE exclusively.
The couple met during the production of Black Swan. Portman’s performance in the film has earned her nominations for a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award.
The actress, 29, will next be seen in the romantic comedy, No Strings Attached, costarring Ashton Kutcher.
This will be the first child for the actress who is due in 2011.
[From People]
Okay, I’m obviously a horrible person, because my first thought was “Wow, Natalie really wants to win that Oscar.” I mean, how great is this for Natalie’s Oscar campaign? Babies and an engagement! Oscar voters will eat that sh-t up! But, yes, I’m a horrible person. Congratulations to Natalie and Benjamin!

i thought she was looking a bit chunky myself. i figured she was finally, you know, EATING for a change.
good for her, i guess. maybe having a baby rip through her lady parts will humble her and make her come off a little less bitchy.

I’m even worse person than you all, my first thought was – “that baby sure will be raised by single mother” as even if they do get to the altar I don’t think their marriage will last. Ballet dancers/choreographers can not be married for life to high profile actors with busy careers. It just doesn’t work. They need someone who’d play second fiddle to them and support them in THEIR endavours, not someone with life of their own outside ballet world.
That said I’m sure she’ll be a terrific mother and she deserves to win Oscar this year.

I’ve always wondered what her deal was. I mean, most of us would kill to be that talented, rich and beautiful, but she always looks like she smelled a big turd which, come to think of it, she’ll be smelling a lot of now that she’s having a baby.
On a personal note, she was the final straw in Star Wars Episodes 1-3, and for that I will always dislike her.

Good on them, if it’s true. There’s no way on God’s green I could have made it through red carpets while I was pregnant; I was in the hospital for over a week while pregnant with my daughter, and crawled on the floor for over a month while pregnant with my son. “Morning” sickness is no joke!

I think this was an accidental pregnancy & now she’s scrambling to make it look right for her image. I see no love between these two. Anyway, maybe now, with a baby, her attention will turn to other things, and she can retire from acting because frankly, she sucks big time as an actor; even after doing it for so many years. She should get her doctorate, and teach at Harvard.
Hasta la vista baby!

lolol announcing a pregnancy and an engagement at the same time is always a classy move, isn’t it?. I mean do you really think you are fooling anyone? how can people take your engagement seriously when you make it so obvious it is fulled by an unplanned pregnancy? she just made herself look desperate for a husband, and he looks like a fool trapped into marriage. or maybe it’s the other way around but considering he’s the cheating type and she’s the type to shack up with a cheater I probably got it right the first time.

I like Natalie but for real, of course she’s engaged, she’s pregnant and you can’t be pregnant without being engaged. Just once I’d like for an actress to say “yep it was an accident but who cares, its my baby and I don’t need to get married just because of that.”
I also never had morning sickness with my daughter although I was completely exhausted. Constantly falling asleep during the day and once I got home I would nap till dinner and then bed at 8. The rest of my pregnancy was amazing though.

Cheaters suck. Every minute of every day. It takes a huge amount of arrogance to assume you are so much better than his/her current mate that his/her eye will never wander. The bottom line is cheaters think they are justified, and deserve to screw around because they are so special. The only justice is when cheaters hook up with the people they cheated with, so they can subsequently be cheated on. It always happens, and I always laugh. Maybe he will end up hooking up with Leanne Rimes after he and little miss vegan poop get married. Or maybe Sienna Miller. She likes ‘em married.

@whatevernot You already admitted that your original comment was out of line. I am not going to pretend to understand the comment about a sacred vow. I am offended by all the attacks on NP for the fact that she isn’t married and is having a baby. It has nothing to do with whether or not I am also a fan of Angelina Jolie . However it would be incredibly hypocritical for a fan of AJ to attack NP for being pregnant or having an “accident” like the truly sexist commenters are because AJ has 6 kids. I don’t know about Natalie and her BF’s supposed cheating situation. So I have no comment on that. I can agree with Liana that people that I have spoken to that went to High School with Natalie said she was a huge beotch I still think she is talented and I am happy for her pregnancy.

I get the impression she was banging that hot ballerino guy thinking it was a fling and would run its course after they parted ways when the movie was finished, but got knocked up. Cuz unless she’s suffering from severe morning sickness, she sure hasn’t looked happy while promoting her film, she’s had a major case of bitchface. Maybe she’s not happy with how things have turned out and is just trying to make the best of a bad situation.
BUT just because she didn’t make the same decision you would have doesn’t make her a whore or a bad person. Let her make her own decisions. I can’t believe how many ignorant and hateful posts there are in regards to her getting pregnant and then getting engaged. She’s a grownup and she can do what she wants, but marrying the father of your child either BEFORE OR AFTER he knocks you up, doesn’t mean happily ever after for you or the kid. Why do Americans have such a prudish, naive, self righteous look on long term relationships? Marriage doesn’t work for a lot of people for very good reasons! The divorce rate is so high because the majority of people saying “I do” shouldn’t be doing it! I didn’t hear anything of the kind said about Miranda what’s her name when Orlando knocked HER up or Halle Berry having that model’s love child. Give me a damn break and give Natalie one too. Geesh.

Every pregnancy is different! I wasn’t sick a single day with my first; my daughter put me in the hospital for over a week (dehydration) & I wasn’t permitted to drive until I was 7 months along; my youngest had me so sick I had to crawl around the house (if I stood, I fell down due to the dizziness and sickness) and I nearly died labouring & delivering him. No pregnancy is the same as another!
Again, good on them. I hope she’s healthy & happy. She’s always struck me as quirky/awkward, which endears her to me. I like her.

In other news, doesn’t Portman’s piece (Mr. Thousandfeet?) look just our Kaiser’s type?

I think she’ll make a great mum. She’s smart and classy and has got it together. Always has, really, so no chance she’ll lose her damn mind after the baby is born, like some.
Also, wow. The pretentious/bitchy remarks are hugely uncalled for. You people don’t know this woman!! And even if you did it’d still be inappropriate; I think it really sucks how women get labelled a bitch or stuck-up or uptight if they are the slightest bit introverted/have a serious disposition about themselves. Femininity is NOT equal too vapid, constant cheeriness and glow-y delicate poise, despite what many seem to believe these days. A serious, articulate woman who can hold her own in conversation, smile or no smile, trumps that BS any day of the week, actually. And Natalie Portman can certainly do that much.
…&Jesus, I tire of reiterating that, here. smh for the lady celebs on this site sometimes!

I hope they were in a solid relationship before she got pregnant and this is what they both wanted and neither of them felt pressured to get engaged. As much as I hope this lasts I can see Natalie being a single mom in a year or two because it seems like one of those on set movie romances and they rarely last.

Natalie would neither have the baby nor marry the father unless she wanted to. She is a woman of considerable means, permitting her to either terminate the pregnancy or have the baby on her own without incident. It would appear that she wants to marry this man and have this baby.
Many congrats.

Best wishes to her and her boyfriend. Hope they have a happy and healthy baby. And even though I don’t particularly care for her, I would never wish anything bad on her. Oh, and I have a fabulous and rewarding life myself.
I lived in Sea Cliff near Natalie (Liana – did you live on 18th off Bay? I think we met at a couple parties at Terrapin Station) and she DIDN’T clean up after her dog a lot. And when confronted, would tell others to clean it up themselves if it bothered them.
(edited because my initial comment was really bitchy sounding, and that was not my intent)

Guess I’m a horrible person too cuz I don’t see this lasting long. I am surprised about the baby but she won’t need to keep the guy to keep the baby.
It doesn’t look like he’s making her happy at all.

Yes! OMG, Terp house… those crazy hippies. Were you Kevin’s girlfriend? Red haired Deadhead? Did you do the mini mart this year? I couldn’t go – got stuck working location in the Hamptons.
Anysmallworld, I really do hope that it all works out for her.

Life is imitating art. Three lives are imitating the story of Swan Lake. The prince-a guy who has 2 women wanting him. Odette–The 3-year live-in girlfriend who seemed to make prince happy until . . . . Odile–The imitation of a real ballerina and the one who tricked the prince into picking the wrong girl, her–more specifically, the Odile character (black swan). I hope the 3-year girlfriend doesn’t harm/kill herslef. Also, Benjamin (not so great-looking opportunist can also be seen as Rothbart. He knew who the white swan was and went ahead and picked the black one instead because he will use whatever means to make himself a star. I don’t see anything great about his contemporary dance style. He can’t make it as a classical principle dancer so he does all kinds of crazy things that I don’t see people who go to the ballet want to see. He is using Nat as a stepping stone and she is again dating someone that she can do better than. But have any of her relationships ever lasted any real time? No. Why would she date Devandra Banhart? He had some really nasty things to say about Natalie. I am surprised the comments are still on the internet. He got very discriptive about their sex life and her body. I think Nat is a little bonkers. She gives micro loans to women in 3rd world countries who don’t even have indoor plumbing. She has millions only because she won the looks lottery. She should give macro donations to these women in 3rd world countries. She doesn’t need all that wealth. We’ll see what life brings her AFTER the baby is born. She might have a total body image transformation–she becomes as fat as a beachball and can’t get the weight off. She will starve herself and her hair will fall out permanently. She could get post-partum psychosis and go bonkers even more. I don’t wish harm on her because I wouldn’t want that for myself or anyone, but she has had it easy in life so far and some people are born in the wrong part of the world to the wrong type of parents and don’t have a fighting chance at any real life other than sickness and pain. But, everyone knows life is unfair. Nat should feel very blessed to have life go so well for her so far and not tell anyone else to pick up her dog’s poop. If she lived in a really nice neighborhood, she’d get sued for that!!
