Speakin of Natalie Portman

korme · 07-22-2008, 02:10 PM

Dude, she's dating
Devendra Banhart

I had to google image search his name because I've never heard of him. But wow, I could land Nat Portman for christ sakes.

MikeVic · 07-22-2008, 02:11 PM

Wow. Way to aim high.

molson · 07-22-2008, 02:13 PM

Does he have money? I imagine that would be important to a celebrity, to be with someone that's not just leeching off you.

Pumpy Tudors · 07-22-2008, 02:14 PM

That's funny, because I was just speaking of Natalie Portman like three and a half months ago.

Natalie has lost some of her luster. Her movies are generally crap, and her taste in men apparently parallels her taste in movie scripts.

korme · 07-22-2008, 02:21 PM

hah i would like that, but my god that hairy beast has been in natalie portman. talk about damaged goods.

Awhile ago I had a conversation with a friend of mine. I asked why everyone made such a big deal over Portman. I think she's good looking, but people act like she's Scarlett Johansson. He explained that Portman seems attainable, unlike Johansson who isn't, and that makes guys more attracted to her, because they think in the right scenario, they'd probably be able to get her.

And I see he was correct.

Personally, I find Natalie Portman more attractive than Scarlett Johansson.

I am not sure if it's the attainability thing or if it has to do with the fact that Scarlett Johansson comes off as being pretty annoying. I also find her face to be a bit soft and squishy looking. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers, but she just doesn't do it for me as much as some other actresses like, for example, Natalie Portman, Kate Winslett, Rosario Dawson, Famke Janssen, Angelina Jolie, and many others.

MikeVic · 07-22-2008, 02:30 PM

I find her beautiful. Something about her that puts her in my top three I think.

samifan24 · 07-22-2008, 02:33 PM

She's way too hot to be dating someone as nasty looking as Devendra Banhart. Has she lost her mind?!?

Pumpy Tudors · 07-22-2008, 02:35 PM

So what exactly is a Devendra Banhart anyway? I've never heard of this fellow. Sounds like the name of a female Motown singer.

RomaGoth · 07-22-2008, 02:38 PM

Ummm....wow.

Devendra Banhart actually makes Corey Feldman look like a catch.

WTF is wrong with these hollywood women anyway? They must have all been dropped on their heads during childhood.

The Other Boleyn was decent, but kinda boring. Basically, she has never matched the potential she showed in Beautiful Girls. A few were good, like Garden State, Boleyn, etc. But in general, I have been disappointed in her movies.

Dr. Sak · 07-22-2008, 02:51 PM

I like Natalie in Garden State.

I. J. Reilly · 07-22-2008, 02:59 PM

This thread held much more promise when I thought Devendra was a woman's name.

Mustang · 07-22-2008, 03:07 PM

I'll have my man card revoked, but I liked her in Where the Heart Is

oliegirl · 07-22-2008, 03:09 PM

There is a story on People.com today, he did a folk song and a "bollywood" themed video that she starred in...

Story:

Quote:

Folk rocker Devendra Banhart has enlisted girlfriend Natalie Portman in his latest project: the music video for his new single, "Carmensita."

Styled as a Bollywood send-up – with cheeky subtitles and silly special effects to boot – the musician casts Portman as a princess whom he must save with his "rebellious beard." (You just have to see it!)

When they're not in sync onscreen, battling snakes and fire, the happy couple have been spotted together, hanging out everywhere from New York's West Village to Israel.

flere-imsaho · 07-22-2008, 03:26 PM

This is definitely a case of the girl going for the "interesting" guy.

ISiddiqui · 07-22-2008, 03:27 PM

This convinces me that I need to learn how to play guitar and stuff.

Pyser · 07-22-2008, 03:45 PM

i think this makes her even cooler and hotter

girls always say looks arent important, and here is one of the most beautiful girls in the world proving that she believes it. she fucking rocks.

That's it -- to women, if you're a musician, you're starting at about an 8, no matter how nasty you look. That's your floor. I thought everybody knew this already.

Did you enjoy V? I don't know, I thought you were meaning you'd prefer her to do sexy summer roles that all of the top Hollywood chicks do... but I like her career path so far. And remember, she's still pretty young.

oliegirl · 07-22-2008, 05:11 PM

As a woman, I would just like that say that he is not attractive and I would not go out with him...

Now, shave his scruffy beard, cut his scraggly hair, and then we'll see...certainly it would be an improvement.

saldana · 07-22-2008, 05:13 PM

that was the worst song i have ever heard.

path12 · 07-22-2008, 05:55 PM

I looked a lot like him in the late 70's, except my hair was lighter brown. Chicks dug me.

kcchief19 · 07-22-2008, 06:01 PM

Never should quit music lessons and started shaving.

And you people who don't see the appeal of Natalie Portman ... I just don't understand you. It's unexplainable.

B & B · 07-22-2008, 06:12 PM

The picture kept will remind me.

Arctic Blast · 07-22-2008, 06:36 PM

Just to add a bit of disturbing info...I remember reading an interview with Mr. Banhart where he mentioned the fact that he really doesn't like to bathe...often going weeks at a time without a shower. Seems like a catch to me...

that song up there sounds like a wes anderson type vibe. i bet her boyfriend is a vegetarian, too.

this all makes perfect sense, people.

Anywhere But Here and Where the Heart Is both have their problems, but she is excellent in both of those movies. I think she was also terrific in Closer, Garden State, and Cold Mountain. I don't think anyone can blame her for the Star Wars trilogy. With the clunky dialogue and an awful costar, I'm not sure any actress would be able to survive that mess.

So Natalie has poor taste in men, I can forgive such things, for it opens the gates for me to get a piece of her at some point in life....

V was okay. Not great. Watchable. I don't want her to make crap like Wanted either. Just something that actually highlights her talent.
