‘Proud to Be Jewish’

Portman just made a movie with a lesbian theme. Why isn't Huckabee criticizing that?

He has presidential aspirations; he doesn't want to get the "homosexual community" stirred up, ya know, or their advocates, the very outspoken and vindictive jew media. Wouldn't be prudent.

Never mind what 'the people' find moral, 2% of the population gets precedence.

Seeing firsthand the limits of her range, I never really cared for her 'acting'... Being a Jerusalem-born jew has always been the wind beneath her wings, in my opinion.

Now that she has become an overly accorded outspoken jew activist of questionable moral qualifications, I care for her even less.

The actress Natalie Portman, who has an endorsement contract with Dior for its Miss Dior Cherie fragrance, has strongly condemned its chief designer, John Galliano, for anti-Semitic remarks after a video surfaced of Mr. Galliano appearing to deliver a tirade in a Paris bar. In a separate incident, he was accused of verbally abusing a French couple last week in the bar. He was suspended Friday from Dior.

In a statement released Monday evening in Los Angeles, Ms. Portman said: “I am deeply shocked and disgusted by the video of John Galliano’s comments that surfaced today. In light of this video, and as an individual who is proud to be Jewish, I will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way. I hope at the very least, these terrible comments remind us to reflect and act upon combating these still-existing prejudices that are the opposite of all that is beautiful.”

It was not known how Ms. Portman’s contract with Dior might be affected.

Huckabee is a poser. Pro marriage? Well, this negro lover huckabee, does not care if it is white woman and a black buck, as long as they are married. He is a worthless neo con!!!

Up here the Liberals think Huckabee is a Right Wing extremist!! They are laughing at Him during Their Latte breaks.

I agree. He's no friend to us, that's for sure.

Maybe Huck mistook the jewess, Portman, for a White woman. Soon as he discovered his error, he backtracked.

Entirely possible... I wonder where Israeli citizen Natalie Portman plans on giving birth to her child by the Jewish French national Benjamin Millepied? ... America for the birthright US passport?

He reminds me of Sarah Palin... His 'position' on anything is subject to change as soon as his memory has purged his last statement on the issue... "Tell 'em what they want to hear", sort of a long middle name, but very fitting.

He needs to buy, and wear full-time, some knee pads to assist himself in kissing the butts of the jews.

Mike Huckabee and all the other neo-con filth claim to stand for America until it comes to support of Israel, the oil companies, or criticizing any issue that has to do with morality. They are bought and sold just like any communist democrat, and the decent people of this nation who try to live lives of purity fall for their crap every time.

You may remember, many years ago (1983), the movie 'Flashdance' became a surprise box office sensation pretty much on the superlative dance performances of its star Jennifer Beals... It then became a controversy when it was revealed that she had used a double to do the movie's actual dance performances.

Well, it seems a similar controversy has again erupted, and this time with far greater consequences.

For the film 'Black Swan' (2010), Jerusalem-born actress Natalie Portman won the 2011 Best Actress Academy Award in February, with critics claiming her dancing double, American Ballet Theatre star Sarah Lane - and not Portman - deserves the credit for the film's most breathtaking sequences.

You make your own judgments about whether or not jewish-born Portman benefited from her jewish connections in Hollywood to win an Academy Award while using a double "for the film's most breathtaking sequences".

Natalie Portman has broken her silence over the Black Swan ballet double controversy.

The actress' role as a troubled dancer has come under increasing scrutiny since she won the 2011 Best Actress Academy Award in February, with critics claiming her dancing double, American Ballet Theatre star Sarah Lane - and not Portman - deserves the credit for the film's most breathtaking sequences.

In a Wall Street Journal essay on her movie experience, Lane insists Portman only performed five percent of the ballet routines in the finished film.

Director Darren Aronofsky, co-star Mila Kunis and Black Swan choreographer Benjamin Millepied, who is Portman's fiance, have all defended the actress, as have studio bosses at Fox Searchlight - the company behind the movie.

Now Portman has finally spoken out to address the rumors she was not involved in the movie's complex ballet sequences.

She tells E! News, "I had a chance to make something beautiful with this film and I don't want to give in to the gossip."

And Portman has dismissed speculation she intentionally omitted Lane from her acceptance speech at the Academy Awards.

She says, "I don't remember my Oscar speech at all. And I'm actually too embarrassed to watch it."

Well, at least you are very artful dancing around the questions from the increasing scrutiny, Natalie.

Ballet is a tougher sport than football and boxing combined. It would be hard to expect a non-professional dancer like Portman to suddenly get up and dance as if she's been doing it her entire life.

Heck yea, I'm at level 2 again !!

True, but that's not the point. Artists are VERY sensitive about getting credit for their work and rightfully so.

Portman tried to dismiss the controversy by implying she was disheveled during the acceptance speech. That's NO EXCUSE considering the magnitude of the award she was accepting.

What Portman did is akin to plagiarism in the academic world, using someone else's work without giving proper credit, intentionally for your own personal gain.

It was a lapse of professionalism on her part that implies it was intentional and greedy, and considering she's a jew, that just seems to fit the profile.

American Ballet Theatre star Sarah Lane got the compensation she contracted for.

What she did NOT get was the common courtesy of a gracious and heart-felt acknowledgment in the presence of the world entertainment community, for her contribution to the body of work, that resulted in the awarding of the Academy Award for Best Actress, to another performer who benefited enormously, and will continue to benefit enormously throughout her career, from her work.

If you ever needed a good lack-of-character study in the greed-obsessed psyche of the jew, there it was, on display, for ALL to see.

This controversy will take more than a little of the luster off Portman's ill-gotten gain, especially among the professionals who appreciate the magnitude of her slight to American Ballet Theatre star Sarah Lane, for her own personal gain.

Considering jewish-controlled Hollywood fully intends to use this 'award' as a springboard to promote this jew's career, I personally find a great deal of satisfaction in knowing that this controversy exists.

In February, 2008, jewess singer and crackhead Amy Winehouse was honored with FIVE awards at the Grammy ceremony, including Best New Artist, Record of the Year (Rehab), Song of the Year (Rehab), Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (Rehab), and Best Pop Vocal Album (Back to Black).... Her album 'Back to Black' was also nominated for Album of the Year but did not win... ('River: The Joni Letters' by Herbie Hancock took top honors in that category).

In the Best New Artist category she was selected over country music newcomer Taylor Swift who had sold more albums... In the Song of the Year Category, Winehouse's 'Rehab' was selected over country music singer Carrie Underwood's 'Before He Cheats', a track from the 'Some Hearts' CD which had sold over 7 million copies.

The heavily tattooed singer was caught on video smoking crack in January of that year and was denied a visa to the United States to attend the 50th Grammy Award ceremonies due to her heavy drug use and conviction.

Then a planned tour featuring Winehouse's music as the headlining attraction was canceled because of poor ticket sales.

If you've ever had any question about the power of the jew-controlled entertainment industry in promoting their own kind, this is as good a case-in-point as you will ever see: FIVE dubious awards over other artists who accomplishments easily overshadowed Winehouse's.

And so it was with Portman, in my opinion. Others might say she just benefited from a lack of competition in the category, in a year devoid of good releases.

But *I* say, adverse publicity for undeserving recipients is a GOOD thing, especially jewish ones; I think it is significant that this controversy is receiving ANY exposure at all in the entertainment industry, and for those who wish to heap undue and undeserved accolades on the Natalie Portmans and Amy Winehouses out there, . this latest episode is a reminder that the world is watching.

Amy Winehouse

Eww @ Winehouse pic... Missing 'puke' emoticon once again needed!

This year was the Jewish Oscars. A few years ago; it was the Black Oscars when Halle Berry got hers. When they gave Tom Hanks an Oscar for "Philadelphia", it was the Gay Oscars (at least for the movie theme).

I never thought much of Portman. She was unremarkable in Star Wars.

She appeared in V for Vengeance.

Now she gets an Oscar for a ballet movie, where someone else does the difficult dancing for her.

I think by now people realize that the Oscars are highly politicized, and it really doesn't matter who gets the Oscar from Jewish Hollywood.

Amy Winehouse

Is it Amy Winehouse or Crackhouse? I can't remember.

Could I please request that any posting of an Amy Crackhouse (heh heh) pic should be preceded by a warning, so those of us grazing on our supper aren't put at risk of losing it before it's been digested. Having said, Portman is taking credit for achievements not her own, but then, she's Jewish, so it's probably written in the Talmud or whatever it is that it's her given right.
In her limited mind, the Jewess BELIEVES those were her supple moves. Even if she had, say, amputated legs she'd still be convinced. There is something about the Jewish mind that is, well, nutzpah.

Whatever serves the jew agenda will be the darling of the Oscars, that has been proven over and over now. THAT is why we should avoid patronizing their theaters.

It was obvious to ME when she came out of nowhere to get the choice role in Star Wars that she was being nurtured along, and it wouldn't be long before she would receive the highest accolades the jewish film industry could bestow. My only surprise is that it took as long as it did.

The year that 'Schindler's List' won Best Picture should have been the eye opener for even the most ardent of doubters. There is NO WAY that movie deserved the nod over 'The Remains of the Day', easily one of the best films ever made.
