Bells Are Ringing Alert™: Natalie's quickie wedding.

Publication: In Touch
Date: 4 April 2011

Fresh trash on Thursdays! There have been no mentions of Natalie Portman in the supermarket rags since the Oscars, so In Touch decides to remind us she is still planning to get married to baby daddy Benjamin Millepied, who is not actually mentioned or pictured on the cover, but she is going to have a (gasp!) quickie wedding!

As you can imagine, quickie weddings of celebrities are the worst possible news to the gossip mags, since they are denied chances to tell about the details of a lavish affair for weeks or even months.

This blog stays with our pro-love policy and wishes the happy couple and their coming bundle of joy every happiness, regardless of the size of their wedding party.

On the rocks alert: Natalie's finace accused of using her for her fame

Publication: Weekly Life & Style
Date: 7 March 2011

Fresh trash on Thursdays! Last year, there were zero stories about Natalie Portman on the covers of the supermarket rags, but in 2011 there have been seven, which currently puts her in the top ten most popular celebrities in the gossip world. She gets two cover stories this week, one for being nominated for an Oscar and another because someone thinks her fiance, dancer and choreographer Benjamin Millepied, isn't good enough for her and is just using her for her fame.

This blog has a strong pro-love policy and wished the young couple all the best.

Breaking news:Natalie Portman pregnant and engaged

Publication: People online
Date: 27 December 2010

People reports on their website that Natalie Portman is pregnant and engaged to the father of her child, choreographer Benjamin Millepied (seriously? Millepied?), age 33. This is the first child and first marriage for the 29 year old actress, who is cute as a button even when she isn't all glammed up. She's one of those actresses that gossip outlets leave alone, since she shows up and does her work and has the absolute minimum of drama in her personal life.

In keeping with this blog's pro-love policy, we wish the happy couple and their baby all the best.
