After the sudden shocking deaths of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon and Natasha Richardson, it’s no wonder the Web has been rife with death rumors about other stars. But relax. Everyone’s still alive. Jeff Goldblum is fine. He even talked to TMZ’s cameras this week. So is Harrison Ford. And Natalie Portman did not suffer a devastating fall or get injured on a movie set.

And so far, George Clooney is plugging along just fine, thanks much.  He didn’t fall off a cliff in New Zealand, perish in a private plane crash or go missing when a luxury yacht sank off St. Tropez. And he was not murdered in a bizarre ritual sacrifice arranged by all his ex-girlfriends. Yet.

But his rep Stan Rosenfield is over all the phone calls about these death rumors. He says that he’s even gotten frantic calls from Clooney’s pals, concerned about the Web death buzz. Enough already, people! Stan is a busy man and doesn’t have time for this rumor-blasting nonsense. Source

Hi Visitors! I am here to tell you that once again Adoring Natalie Portman has changed ownership. Angela sadly realised that she was unable to dedicated enough time to the site, and as I was at the time making my own over at portman-fan.com (which you will soon be able to use to reach this site) the site was kindly handed over to me.

I realise I have an awful lot of images to add to the gallery, and I will get working on those shortly. For now though, please enjoy this pretty portrait shoot (click for more photos!) I have added, taken of Natalie this year:

  

I will be updating the site shortly!  I am organizing my life, and then I will be making this one of the best Natalie sites out there!

 

If you are interested in co-webbing with me, please send me an e-mail!

Hey all!  I will have a ton of updates soon!  Right now I’m working on a very sophisticated organized layout that will make it easier for me to feel in control, haha.  (Also, I have worked A TON the past few hours at a job that I have, so I’m so tired and have no time to do anything but sleep!)  Anyways, once that is done, I will be updating more.  Sorry for the wait, but just know that I’m here and kicking, lol.

Sometimes small actions have massive consequences.

That’s the thrust of “A Powerful Noise,” a new documentary from Unify Films and director Tom Cappello, that chronicles the lives of three seemingly ordinary women in Vietnam, Mali and Bosnia.

Hanh, a Vietnamese woman with HIV, works to prevent AIDS and destigmatize its sufferers. These women have known great heartbreak, yet refuse to give in to poverty, disease and hate.

“A Powerful Noise” will be shown in dozens of local movie theaters on one night only, March 5, in conjunction with hundreds of cinemas around the nation. The event is sponsored by CARE and an impressive coalition of international aid groups, and concludes with a live town hall meeting held in New York City but simulcast to the local theaters.

During the post-film discussion, Chicago-area audiences will be able text their questions to panelists — including former secretary of state Madeleine Albright, activist/model Christy Turlington Burns and actress Natalie Portman — as they discuss the role of women in the fight against global poverty.

“CARE has evolved over its 64 years into being an organization that targets women and children, because they are most marginalized in this world,” Davies said. “It’s the women and children who, when given the tools, thrive and survive.”
