Natalie Portman Stripes Back
Natalie Portman looks stunning in Lanvin stripes at the closing ceremonies and premiere of What Just Happened? at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival on Friday in Cannes, Frances.
Check out Nat’s pom-pom shoes if you missed it yesterday!
Model/actress Milla Jovovich also looked elegant for the premiere and closing ceremonies at Cannes.

she’s beginning to look old.
shes adorable
That dress is not flattering at all. It looked like she just shagged her boyfriend and quickly ripped off the bedsheets and tried to make it look like a dress.
Uh, I have to disagree with the statement that Natalie looks “Stunning.” The dress totally overpowers her, and it looks as though she has 1)been tp’d with brown and black tissue paper, or 2)she has a black leotard on with a few large bandaids covering her. I know she was amazing in the movie “Leon” (hope that’s the right name) but her acting is a bit valley girlish, (I know this isn’t really possible as she grew up in NY)
what about Kerry Washington? she in the photo too. she looks gorgeous
Hey!
She is thin enough to wear stripes! She is reminding me of Audrey Hepburn here! Simply gorgeous! Love the Nat! Work it! :D
Oops. This was a miss. Too much dress for her petite frame. The hair and makeup are beautiful, though. Mila Jovovich’s dress is gorgeous. She’s statuesque enough to carry it. Actually, it looks like there were several beautiful dresses on that red carpet. Love all the color.
First
She looks great as always .. Well you cant look ulgy when you are so beautiful as Natalie ;)
I love her but not that dress…lol
Natalie is freakin’ stunning! She should be on the jury every year.
B….

Biiiiiiiaaaaaaattch !!!
sorry.. i had to let it out ^^
Dang… Jailhouse Rock?!
She looks like she’s competing in one of those races where you have to run in the sack and jump up and down.
she’s pretty.
her ears are quite elfish…
dunno if it’s the picture or what.
but that’s what I noticed.
no offense intended really.
The Dress basically swallows her small frame giving her the potato look. Stunning is not what I would call the loook .. but to each his own
I like her acting skills and she’s a beautiful lady.. but in this particular I beg to defer on your “stunning” fashion sense. I don’t think that dress does anything for her…
No need too be to serious always with those dresses.
She herself is a true beauty and so completely lovely.
I love her <3.
It’s really strange. It’s like she ran out of dresses and had to borrow this and she didn’t have time to alter it to fit her. You can see that part of the dress was tucked under the bodice, probably an attempt to make it shorter. And in the full-body shots, you can see how long and ill-fitting that dress really is. I’m sorry - I just can’t get over that fact that she wore this to the final night; the big night as she’s a juror.
Milla deserved a thread just for her her dress is gorgeus
Who cares about the dress when your face is that beautiful? Whatever.
She looks like she should be a fixture in Sephora!
Wow. Simply gorgeous!
Natalie is adorable!
I love her small shoulders and arms. The dress show how pretty her little shoulders and arms are! She is a perfect little package!
I love Milla….she looks radiant!
Natalie looks stunning as always
Gorgeous dress Jovovich has on, but she always looks good.
I am loving her choice of outfits for Cannes! And she is amazing as usual.
I’m sorry her dress is a total mess, Milla’s is breathtaking.
I personally love the striped dress…and yes, one has to be thin to pull it off…that she is, and that she can wear. But, the hair is still a mess…it’s not so hard to simply just pull back all of her hair sleekly..is it? Why the frizz ?
Secondly, I’m not much into Milla’s shiny dress, but she’s a model and knows how to work it.
Milla LOOK BEATY I LOKE HER DRESS
dress=no.
without the stripes it might have been okay.
Fuzzy curly hair, plastic surgery nose, old at 26, ugly make up, no acting talent….somebody stop the madness. FUG!
Millas dress is beautiful!
Mila’s hair is awful! Nat is perfect!
nat looks like she got duck-taped.
Natalie looks beautiful, her face is so gorgeous, she looks just like she used to look in Star Wars only with glamorous make up.
The dress stands out, it is elegant yet daring.
She takes chances and pulls them of with poses.
Love her. She looks very French.
@36
Natalie is openly proud of being Jewish, you are waisting your time trying to insult her. What are you, pig?
Mila’s dress is just another gown, Natalie’s dress is charismatic, fit for a judge not just an actress.
Natalie looks like nice big BEE:))
she looks divine!
I think she’d look great with short hair. She looks much nicer with it up than when she wears it out.
Not a fan of the striped dress, it has no real shape to it and swallows her up. I loved the ruffled white dress she wore and thought it was pretty but a bit too big on her.
Mila looks great and lost the post pregnancy weight like way fast!
I don’t get why Nat’s a judge either, she hasn’t really done all that much.
Milla looks stunning! Portman looks ugly because she’s standing next to a real beauty, Milla! Natalie looks like a fuzzy haired elf from star wars lol all gums, no talent :p
I am totally confused as to why Natalie, an awful actress, is a judge. I wouldn’t even allow her to judge a high school play.
Milla looks rough with that lipstick color and hair but the dress is perfect
#45, she may not be the best actress, but she apparently has good taste, since she chose good movies. This year’s Palme d’Or is the french “Entre les murs”, and I’m very proud of my country today. It’s been 21 years since the last french movie received this great award. But you only seem to be interested in Milla’s ugly dress, so… I wonder why everybody is watching Cannes when they don’t care about movies!
she is a stunning beauty and really stands out in the crowd of gowns, very daring and tasteful
Gorgeous face
you rock Cannes Nat, love you
proud that you are representing the states
@ 49
You are absolutely right, I am sorry I did not think of it myself but thanks to Natalie we have some one young to represent us in Cannes as a judge, they could not have made a better choice.
Natalie is extremely talented, she could play an assassin and a queen before she was 20, she is very educated and intelligent and based on the films she made has in implacable taste. And do not forget she is very knowledgeable, she can have an intellectual discussion with any of her peers.
All jealous critics would have sent Paris Hilton.
Natalie stands out, she is very elegant but Mila is a bit too masculine for the dress.
Oh dear…I normally love Natalie’s picks but this one is just awful. The large stripes draw attention to all the wrong places :S
Sorry guys, I’ve always loved her, but this time I have to say that she looks awful. I don’t like her make up she looks sooo old, and that dress!!! she couldn’t have pulled a worse dress than this one, ugly ugly ugly.
I always love Natalie, she always stands out, and she is not 5′10″. She really does stand out in a good way.
She knows how to chose her outfits. A true artist.
God, you people are so harsh on people who are over 23. Women AGE, it happens. One is not forever 21. Remember the name of the store…thats what it means. Anyway, i thought the dress would have looked as incredible as the white givenchy dress she wore a couple of days ago if it was tighter ala jessica rabbit. I think natalie portman is the best looking white girl under 30 in the business right now.
Natalie looks like she just jumped off the pages of “A cat in the Hat”…..one cat, two cat, three nat!!!!!!!!!!!
Natalie looks bad, milla looks alright but she’s been better, now Kerry Washington on the other hand, outshines both of them. She looks beautiful!
natalie looks so chic and happy in that lanvin dress!
she stood out during the whole festival imo :))
She looks so good with her hair short or pulled up. The best!
In this dress she looks like a honey bee. :)
Ugly dress on such a babe, but she is Natalie Portman and so what?
I can think of many women who could pull that dress off but Natalie does it effortlessly….a true beauty. One of the world’s most beautiful women….wow.
I haven`t seen such a wonderful and amazing dress like milla jovovich`s since penelope cruz oscars 2007 dress. I mean this versace dress was blow minded, i have never seen such an elegant milla jovovich she looks like and angel, she glows like no one else does it in that amazing dress and that beautiful necklace.. omg, she looks radiant, everything is perfect about her in this event, she was definately th best dressed in this year`s cannes. there is no doubt about it.
This title is about Natalie. I dont mind to see pics of Jovovich. I think M.J. has her own thread for the ones who interested to see pics of her.
Natalie is the one for me. She is the most beautiful. I love her <3.
Milla Jovovich has the same hairline as Leonardo Di Caprio, she is sort of the female version of him really, in one of her films she made herself look like him. She isnt that well known though like him.
To the person who made the first comment about Natalie ‘She’s beginning to look old’ Are you stupid? she looks about twelve!
