Natalie Portman and a Kerry button (large photo)

[electricmonk]

Just saw this while wandering around the net. Natalie is one of my few celebrity crushes so I thought this was cool but not surprising, I knew she was a Dem anyway. Just like seeing her showing off her support.

1. she just got hotter

if that was possibLe.

[mvd]

2. That's cool!

I have many crushes in my list, but she's been a mainstay. :hi:

4. I saw her in "The Professional." I don't think legal to call her "hot"

Maybe because as an adult I saw Natalie Portman as a child actress, it just feel very weird to think of as anything but a "lovely young lady."

It just borders on too much strangeness.

5. she was supah hot in that

j/k

nothing got my juices going Like when she said, "i was not eLected queen to watch my peopLe suffer and die, whiLe you form a committee."

7. Depends on the situation

I'm young, too, so there aren't that many years difference between us. When she was 14, I was around 19, but when you get older a few years don't mean much. :-)

9. ditto her in Beautiful Girls

Matt Dillon showed amazing restraint in that movie....

14. First saw her in that too

But then I didn't see any of her movies for years so by then she was a college student and I was like wow she grew up quite nicely. So I don't feel perverted being attracted to her but I can see your point too. Kind of the Olsen twins fetish a lot of guys have. That one has bypassed me but a guy I work with is scarily obsessed with them.

6. Aren't you hot for EVERY celebrity?

:shrug:

:P

[mvd]

11. No

Many magazines go beyond what I do. :hi:

However, there are some celebs beyond my list who are noteworthy. And I have some small crushes.

3. That's in line with her character in Star Wars

She wants to preserve democracy in the Republic.

8. soo-weet!

let the repukes have the likes of Shannen Doherty and the other skank GOPher women....Natalie rocks!

10. She's also a VERY bright young lady.

I saw her on an interview not long after the Professional. I was pretty amazed at how articulate and thoghtful she was at such a young age. She really has a classic, natural, beauty too.

12. she didn't get into Harvard by being a legacy

like some did...

[sir_captain]

13. legacy means a lot less

at Harvard than it used to...

and legacy or not, i don't think i ever met anyone there who wasn't qualified...

edit: i once had a bit of a crush on natalie, but damn, she's so tiny in person that it didn't quite work for me

[fryguy]

15. smirk was qualified?

or does anyone with a "C" average from Yale get into Harvard Business School?

[sir_captain]

18. apples and oranges

natalie portman: harvard undergraduate
chimpy: HBS

it's not even the same school. and frankly, the undergrads were a lot brighter than the grad students, imho

[fryguy]

19. point taken

and I agree - undergrad are not only brighter but a lot less arrogant. the number of HBS and HLS grads that I run into who I want to put through the nearest window is alarmingly high.....

[sir_captain]

21. i agree completely

i think the B school students are the worst, personally

[fryguy]

23. yes

maybe its the extra year at HLS or the demoralizing experience of taking the bar with the common riff-raff of all the other law schools that beats a bit of it out of the sharks....

[Zinfandel]

16. Does that go for Yale too?

[sir_captain]

17. no, of course not

those damn yalies and their silver spoons ;-)

[fryguy]

20. effete new england liberal intellectuals...

thank god we have a man of the people from humble beginnings running the country

/sarcasm

[sir_captain]

22. yeah

thank god for texas
