And the wench still looks gorgeous.
Rachel Weisz on the other hand…She cut her hair off and I actually gasped (not in a good way) when she appeared on David Letterman. She went from looking incredibly lovely to…this.
I still think she looks fantastic. longing sighhhh
To be sexist and superficial (pit me if you want), extremely short hairstyles on women usually work only if the woman is petite and looks young. I like Rachel Weisz but that cut is not flattering. It ages her appearance and makes her face look too big. However, I do believe her cut (like Portman’s) was for a role.
I would suspect that that’s the main reason any actress ever cuts her hair. If you have long hair, you can be cast for a part that calls for short hair, and get it cut once the contract’s signed. But if you have short hair, you can’t just grow it out on a moment’s notice if that’s what the part calls for. Long hair gives you more flexibility that way. So it seems to me that for an actress, cutting your hair when and only when a role calls for it would be a sound business decision.
How could she go from all those wonderful Star Wars hairstyles to that?
Whatever this V movie is, it better be worth it.
Oh, it will be. In fact, I think it will be better than Star Wars.
NERDS ACROSS THE INTERNET: Ooooooooooooooooh!
Mmm, not really. At least not for stars (though keeping plain, shoulder-length hair is a good idea for aspiring actresses, especially those doing commercials). Wigs are pretty amazing things, and they’ll use them even when an actress has long hair just to get a different look (Angelina Jolie in Gone in 60 Seconds, Cameron Diaz in Being John Malovitch). And extensions are ubiquitous in the movie industry, on and off the set.
Egads, Lucas is growing a second head under his chin!
It’s the dark side. Just like Palpatine’s teeth & brow ridges went all oogy.
Holy crap, she looks exactly like the cute punk chick I hooked up from 1987 to 1989. No wonder she always give me a woody!
(Somehow, I doubt Ms. Portman’s mouth ever tastes of airplane glue, though. Eesh.)
Yikes. It would work without the raccoon eyes.
He’s from Frog Island.
It could not possibly be worse.
