Natalie Portman to keep skinhead 2007-01-01

Natalie Portman loves her shaven head so much she is thinking of keeping the dramatic look.

The actress, who was forced to chop off her locks for the role of a freedom fighter in new movie 'V For Vendetta', says having a skinhead makes her feel empowered

She confessed: "Being a really small girl, I've never felt threatening but now, for the first time, I feel tough People react to me differently and I love that"

The 24-year-old was initially worried having a shaved head would send out the wrong message

She said: "People will think I'm a neo-Nazi or a cancer victim or a lesbian"

However, the sexy star was followed by fans who mistook her for Irish singer Sinead O'Connor


A source close to the star confessed: "When she first shaved her head Natalie was constantly being mistaken for Sinead O'Connor
"She thinks it's hilarious and loves it"
