Portman denies Penn romance rumor
May 15, 2009
Israeli-born U.S. actress Natalie Portman Friday denied rumors she is dating actor Sean Penn, who recently separated from his wife of 13 years.
Sean Penn is a friend and colleague,
Portman said in a statement to TV’s Extra.
The reports that we are romantically involved are completely untrue,
she said. I normally do not respond to rumors about my private life, however, this repeatedly fabricated story has forced me to do so.
Penn has won Oscars for his work in the films Mystic River
and Milk.
Portman’s credits include Beautiful Girls,
the three most recent Star Wars
movies, Cold Mountain,
Closer,
Garden State
and The Other Boleyn Girl.
