Here is Natalie Portman gracing the cover of Marie Claire UK this month, and she also blesses her fans with a huge photo shoot inside the covers. But for those of you that may not know Natalie very well, this girl is not just a pretty face. Natalie herself has an education from Harvard University, where she graduated in 2003 with a Psychology degree. But that’s not all, she’s also perfectly fluent in Hebrew which is the mother tongue of her Israeli father. Because of all of this, she’s gaining a reputation in Hollywood as a little ‘cold’ and a little too ‘brainy’. Well you know, anyone that is saying that has just got to be jealous, because brainy and Hollywood don’t exactly mix well. But Natalie talks to Marie Claire candidly about growing up. Most of her childhood was spent with her dad training to be a doctor, so they never had any major wealth. She describes herself as spoiled because her dad would do anything for her, even turning the backseat of the car into a mini apartment for her. But she wasn’t spoiled in the *too much money* kind of way, as family vacations were spent driving to Disneyland or Ohio to visit her grandmother, in the family’s old Chevy. So if you are the kind that can appreciate celebrities with a little depth, Natalie Portman definitely seems to have it all.
