Look, Natalie's the only child of a Jewish parents who lived on Long Island. The dad's a doctor. Natalie went to theater camp. It doesn't get much more textbook NY than that. I would venture a guess that daddy had some connections in showbiz and got Natalie auditions. I don't believe the 'pizza parlor' story that's been part of NP's PR since she started out.
Oh, and there is a clip out there of Ann Miller at age 14 demonstrating real tap dancing in a number called V for Victory. (Her father's one act of usefulness in her life was getting her a fake birth certificate so she could get a contract in Hollywood as an adult, although she had a few years to go in real life.)
I'm so sorry I wasted 6 minutes of my life watching this. Natalie Portman was dreadful in every way. Anyone who thinks otherwise has no taste and knows nothing of good dancing, as art or athleticism.
Shirley Temple at age 5 was a better dancer with far more charisma and style.
repn87: I did not say it was good dancing. I said that NP was the best of the group. I did not want to comment on the quality of the dancing overall since they are just teenagers. As far as NP, she can look at it and laugh, but the rest of them might be offended if the dancing were critiqued.

@alyssamarrian see.... she is the one who appears at 0:38 in the left, then is the one who counts 1, 2, 3, 4... and you can hear people screaming her name before she starts counting and then she is the one who is in front and with the black skirt, you can tell because of the hair and the bathing suit she is wearing... just look carefully you'll see.
Natalie was the best of the lot. I don't want to comment on it in general--if the girls had fun that's what counts--this is not a program to train professionals obviously.
@Lanfeust22 she comes in at 2:30...she says "1, 2, 3..." it's definitely her because i recognize her voice, then after that i think she's the one in the cross-backed ballet outfit....

Probably 80% or more of actresses took dance growing up. It is a logical step for someone interested in the performing arts, not to mention a super popular activity for young girls.
so the ballat portionj won her oscars? really/? i thought its all about acting and not the technical ascpects that win oscars, e.g, dancing, shooting, singing, etc

Why? Because I think that she is unconvincing as an actress. However, I am obviously in the minority because she won an Oscar for some reason. Do you really think that was an Oscar-winning performance?
The are hundreds of better actors around who could wipe the floor with her acting abilities.
And sure, go ahead and criticize everything I did as a child, although that would be pretty stupid seeing as you don't know anything about me, wouldn't it?
They think this is proof that she did all the dancing by herself? Umm this is terrible. It only reafirms the fact that she probably did not do as much as they claim.
She was talentless then ... and she went downhill from here.
Totally overrated as an actress let alone as a so-called "dancer".
How the hell this bloody woman won an oscar is beyond me. Seriously. I think it must be because she is Israeli. For some unknown reason, the Americans unconditionally love anything Israeli, even though it sucks donkey's balls - which it usually does.
Obv the doing of a PR campaign after the whole Black Swan body double dance debacle. This is not a random release of footage as the PR company would like you to think.
I also heard there is a campaign going on by a few of the male action stars that show them as kids doing "dangerous" things. This is to combat the false rumours that these actors did not do all their own stunts.
Wasn't very good. The lot of them were awkward and weird, and funny enough Natalie looks one of the most awkward out of all of them. Sounds like a bunch of noise. For some reason this crappy performance only makes me doubt her performance in Black Swan. Lame
That was so bad. I've seen 10 year olds with better technique. Sarah Lane is a soloist with ABT...it would take Natalie 20 years to even get near her technical prowess.
