Uh...what? WHAT?!?! Self-obsessed bimbo? I mean really, I've said some terrible things about famous people on here but of ALL PEOPLE to say that about? Self-obsessed? Really? REALLY?!? Wouldn't you consider someone like oh, say...Kim Kardashian to be self-obsessed? Or really, ANYONE other than Natalie Portman?? WTF?! Except for the slew of them I've managed to type above, I have no words.

She may not be a good actress, but she's definitely not a slut. Perhaps a little self absorbed, yes, but that's expected. She should just focus on academia and forget about acting since she's got plenty of money now.

I don't think she's that bad. I agree, she's not a good actress. But not that bad face wise and body wise....I'd hit her...with a light saber.

Wow 'Dude' aka #2 you're a sick fuck. While I might acknowledge she's not my favorite actress, I do have a soft spot in my heart for people who try to help the down trodden, especially when they have some success.

You're probably off molesting your pet gerbil and that's the closest thing to getting laid you'll see all September...

I wouldn't call consensual sex with my gerbil "molesting." I'm giving him a blowjob right now and he has a smile of his face. And my rectum is where he sleeps, FYI.

I still think her best film role was probably in Léon, but then Jean Reno and Gary Oldman carried that film anyway. I haven't been overly impressed with anything she's done since then. Cute though. And smart.

Great young actress in Beautiful Girls, probably her best to date acting, however she is beautiful and more than good enough to take on most roles Hollywood dreams up.
