Why does Natalie Portman have a shaved head?
 
My beautiful girl shaved her head! Just saw a Cannes video. Why????

I assume for a new movie, but have no actual idea why!!

LONDON: Natalie Portman says she prefers being bald. The "Star Wars" actress, who has shaved her head for her role in new movie "V For Vendetta" was quoted by Sky News as saying:

"After all the crazy hairstyles I had to endure for the films, it's quite liberating to have no hair - especially in this heat."

"Some people will think I'm a neo-Nazi or that I have cancer or I'm a lesbian."

Yeah, the whole quote is asinine, I think. Neo-nazi, cancer, and lesbian parts. :rolleyes:

Although there is a lot of truth in her comment! :shrug:

Even today a woman shaves her head - or has short hair and automatically her sexuality is questioned....

Interestingly when I had long hair women NEVER hit on me or even gave me a second look - when I chopped it all off?? Bam - got hit on...:shrug:

This also happend to my straight friend, Shannon who shaved her head and then everyone assumed she was a lesbian :shrug:

PErhaps her comment was dumb - but it rings true :o

It's true, though. A woman who wore pants back in the day was considered one (just look at Hepburn), and now if a woman has short hair or a shaved head, it's automatically assumed by many that she's a lesbian.

That's not what bugged me, it's more of what Hillary commented on...cancer, lesbian, neo-nazi, get real Natalie and stop sounding to stupid! You went/go to an Ivy League school! :laugh:

I've decided that celebrities shouldn't talk :laugh:.

:laugh: It's best if celebrities don't talk so people on The Ledge like us don't criticize all the crap they say! :laugh::lol:

Josh and Deanna are right, but the thing is, if I were Natalie, I'd try not to say that outloud. It's almost like it perpetuates that misconception.

Here I go taking things too seriously as usual. :rolleyes: :laugh:

Agreed. I think what bugs me the most about her comment [and why I care is beyond me :laugh:] is that noone is going to think any of those things because she's Natalie Portman, so, duh. Well, maybe the cancer part might waft through one's mind, I don't know. Anyway, it just rubbed me the wrong way. In the future I'll try to keep my meandering, impulsive thoughts to myself :laugh:.
