Natalie Portman at Saturday Night Live in New York City

she is just a private person. just because some one is an actress and wants to make movies doesnt mean they should have to deal with everything that goes with it.

This broad lost her mind years ago when she started dating girly men and lost both her SW fan base and her male fanbase.

Nobody likes her or her shitty movies any more.

It's so cheesy - why is she so afraid of the paparazzi? I mean ALL the other stars put up with it w/out bitching. Why is she any different?

You can't expect someone, just because they're famous to oblige. Famous people do not owe anyone anything, that includes paparazzi's. Being friendly towards paparazzi's is a CHOICE, not a requirement. You have to know your boundaries and respect other people. Shoving cameras into peoples faces when they clearly do not appreciate it is not respectable. I respect paparazzi's who work with the celebrity's who collaborate, NOT against them and against their own will. Do you see the point?

Prominente sind auch nur Menschen. Es ist klar das sie nicht immer Lust haben fotographiert zu werden. Ich finde sie trotzedem toll. Natalie ist eine mega tolle Schauspielerin!!! Wenn ich berühmt wäre, würde ich es auch nicht wollen das man mich ständig fotographiert und mir hinterher läuft!!

I love Natalie...

We don't mind criticism, provided that people are at least willing to consider our side of the story. The truth is that the small minority of famous people actually mind the paparazzi. The rest consider it a normal part of the entertainment business, which they love. Take a look at our other videos, and you'll see that most famous people are relaxed, friendly, talkative and friendly toward us. We have mutual respect and appreciation for one another. If 95% of celebs weren't friendly, I'd quit.

Good point.

Yes, it's rude. But what do you think of the most fortunate people who carelessly, wastefully and shamefully buy 8 ball after 8 ball of Cocaine and get completely wasted until noon the following day, on a regular basis, without regard for anyone. What do you think of people who are power-obsessed, self-obsessed, and fame-obsessed, but run around pretending to be humanitarians? The glitz and glamour magazine covers, the red carpet plastic $50,000 per table event, the media box propaganda machine.

i see what your saying but, most celebrities are open to this lifestyle and embrace it, but some paparazzi take it too far, following them around all day when they're just doing errands, or taking pictures of the celebrities kids, i mean there has to be some form of privacy, at an even like this there really is nothing wrong with, and it is to be expected, but in those other circumstances i think its wrong.

I wonder why so many people support the celebrity magazines and newspapers which publish the 'intrusive' pictures and why the television shows which discuss and air these videos are so successful. To hell if we know why. Whether it's right or wrong, it exists, and it's as much the fault as the ordinary viewer and reader as it is any one particular photographer or videographer. Why is there such demand for this sort of unimportant content? We have no idea. But the job is pleasant, day to day.

More than 852 million people -- about 13 percent of the world population -- do not have enough food each day to sustain a healthy life. What percentage makes 3-7 million dollars every time they accept a movie role? The answer to your question is a very large YES, you can take my pictures without my consent, if I've signed contracts which turn my image into a public one. And especially when I'm attending a media-invited entertainment industry-related event.
