Natalie Portman: ‘Recession is Exciting’

Posted by Adam

Natalie PortmanNatalie Portman isn’t letting the global economic downturn get her down — she thinks it’s “exciting”.

The actress believes the recession allows for everyone to re-evaluate their priorities.

“I think it’s kind of an exciting time,” said Portman, who last year filmed a sketch about the financial downturn for comedy website Funny or Die. “I mean, everyone is cutting back. It’s happening in every industry — including our own.

“All of a sudden, people are doing jobs that they hate and they’re not making as much money as they thought they would or they’ve lost their jobs entirely.

“I’ve started to see people looking more toward their own passions and what really excites them.”

Portman, 28, recently revealed she’s a huge fan of hip-hop music.

    yeah its so exciting having to work a crappy job making crappy money and live paycheck to paycheck, having to struggle and worry about your future. Ive always wanted to lose my house and provide less for my family. I agree, what a cunt. All respect lost for this idiot. and she went to an ivy league school? it just proves that beauty is skin deep and that you can have book smarts and zero common sense. if its so exciting, lets switch lives you fucking idiot.

    She clearly has no understanding as to what normal people go through, and what a recession means to them.

    It doesn’t effect in any way shape or form. I on the other hand am now living off $300 bucks a week, and I really don’t appreciate some million dollar cunt telling me I should be exited!

    I guess they don’t teach common sense at Harvard, do they?

    A VERY ignorant thing to say. Is she really that fucking stupid?
