Finally, some news! The music video for Devendra Banhart’s quite evidently Bollywood-inspired “Carmensita”, featuring Natalie in an absolutely hilarious cameo appearance, has finally premiered online, and is available for viewing at Spinner.com. Do check it out (if you can — non-US residents will have to bitterly bite their tongue for the moment), Natalie is absolutely priceless and looks like she had a ton of fun filming it. Screen caps later today!

In other news, according to the Project Runway official site, Natalie will “guest judge” in the green, second episode of Season 5, which airs on Wednesday July 23 2008 (that’s tomorrow!) at 9-10 PM ET/PT on Bravo — check your local listings. Don’t forget to visit Portman Source for coverage! From Bravo.tv:

Episode 2: Grass Is Always Greener
The designers are forced to think green in the second episode of Project Runway — with the help of their trusted model. Guest Judge: Natalie Portman.

I’ve recently noticed that photos originating from Portman Source are being reposted at other websites without the slightest of mention of the site. While a little reposting is fine by me (after all, the site is here to share, no?), I do find it increasingly disheartening to see hoards of material — literally hundreds of photos — from our imagery being continuously spread to or at other sources, material I work hard to obtain exclusively for Portman Source. In view of the fact that, unlike many other fan sites today, I leave the majority of photos untagged and do not nitpick about the occasional reposts, I don’t see why allowing Portman Source a taste of appreciation for work well done should be so much to ask.

Thus, I kindly ask you to please credit Portman Source for reposted material, and ask you not to redistribute our original scans or screen captures to or at other websites, whether they be dedicated to Natalie or not. Thank you.

I’ve been meaning to upload these for a while now, but haven’t really gotten to it. I’ve just added 6 hi-res scans of Natalie’s feature in the June 2008 issue of Finnish Elle. The inside photos are not new, the cover shot on the other hand, is. Enjoy, and kindly do not redistribute these scans at another Natalie Portman fan site as they were obtained exclusively for Portman Source. Thank you. More scans coming up!

My apologies again for the delay in updates, we experienced some technical difficulties for a while there. Lucky for us (?), there hasn’t really been any news on Natalie of late, so we haven’t really missed anything.

At any rate, I do have something to update with today. I’ve just uploaded roughly 1700 medium-res screen captures of Natalie as Anne Boleyn in Justin Chadwick’s period drama The Other Boleyn Girl; DVD-quality caps will be added as soon as possible. While I confess I didn’t like the movie itself, Natalie was her usual splendid self, with her performance being one of the highlights of the film. Enjoy the caps; our gallery has now reached more than 40,000 Natalie Portman photos!

As most of you will already know, the 2008 Cannes Film Festival wrapped up on May 25; hopefully, for my sake, this update will wrap up the photo coverage, which has been quite extensive throughout the festival. I’ve just finished uploading nearly 450 site-exclusive hi-res photos of Natalie’s various Cannes appearances. It’s nearing 4 a.m. for me, however, so without further ado, enjoy the new photos.

My apologies for the few days’ delay in updates - I don’t have access to internet on weekends. At any rate, the 2008 Cannes Film Festival is finally over, as the festival closing ceremony was held yesterday — but the media coverage isn’t. Here’s our 5th big batch of medium- and hi-res photos — however, I have so many photos yet to add you can expect more Cannes photo updates throughout the week. Anyway, I’m running out of power here (for a change), so without further ado, here are today’s updated photo albums.

More photos! On May 19, Natalie attended the Cannes Film Festival premiere of Le Silence de Lorna, looking absolutely amazing, as usual, while yesterday she was spotted at the festival premiere of Che, as gorgeous as ever. 100+ medium- and hi-res photos of Nat at the events have been added to the gallery, alongside some other Cannes hi-res photo additions. Still more to come!

Please note that I am constantly adding new medium- and hi-res Cannes additions to the gallery, even though I’m not necessarily posting updates about them (mainly due to online time restrictions). Do check back for daily new additions!

Finally, a proper update on the recent big photo additions at the gallery. As most of you will already know, Natalie has been granted the honor of juror at the ongoing 2008 Cannes Film Festival, and we here at Portman Source are, of course, doing our best at keeping up with the photo flow. Nat was last seen on May 18 at the festival premiere of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull looking as classy and glamorous as ever, and tons of medium and hi-res photos of her on the red carpet have been added to the gallery.

The third big batch of medium- and hi-res photos of Natalie’s festival opening day appearances has also been uploaded to the gallery, which you’ll hopefully enjoy browsing through. We have at least one more big photo batch coming up, so stay tuned. A huge thank you for the medium-res footage goes to my good friend Filip of Cameron Fan. Keep your eyes peeled for more photos, as the festival will run until May 25.

Personally, I couldn’t be more excited about Natalie’s festival style if I tried. I am particularly in love with Nat’s opening ceremony look, which to me is flawless, right down to the beautifully done hair. Stylewise, Natalie never disappoints.
