I am a huge fan of Natalie Portman. There is just something about her that is awesome. She is starring in the new movie with Jake Gyllenhaal and Tobey Maguire called Brothers. I love the trailer for the movie. She is the cover girl for the Winter 2009/2010 issue of V magazine. Here are the highlights from the interview:
On harsh criticism of her Star Wars work: “My acting was not exactly respected in those films [laughs] but those are the moments when you want to prove yourself again. When people think I suck, it helps.”
On how the internet affects her roles: “[O]nline bulls— interferes with what I want to do artistically. I’m not opposed to sexuality or nudity in a film, but I’m very opposed to pornography sites and you’re pretty much giving them material if you do any of that.”
On striving to be her best: “To be successful, you need the desire to be successful. Ambition can be a dirty word, but it’s pretty much more important than anything.”

Keeping up with the Twilight theme tonight. Okay, the other two posts I was just replacing them since they went missing. (If you ever find them please tell me where they are. They will be in trouble for leaving me.) Kellan Lutz is on the Winter 2010 issue of Doggie Aficionado posing with his dog Kola.
Here are some of the cute highlights from the magazine:
On adopting Kola: “I have always been a huge advocate for saving animals, so I found it fitting, when I was ready for something new in my life, to look around the local animal shelters. . . . She looked me in the eyes, bowed and slowly and softly licked my open hand. As I pet this beautiful dog I realized how soft her multi-colored coat was, and felt her desperation for a real home. Our connection was so strong that it was like fate bringing us together. I knew she was the one. That was three years ago.”
On what he has learned from her: “Kola has taught me to be a man. I hope I have given her some deserved happiness.”
Kellan just keeps stealing my heart more every time. He’s a good man for saving animals. I love it when people have a heart like that.
