“HE BROUGHT SOMETHING FROM MY OWN SEXUALITY”
On the other hand, Portman, describing his unknowns before, stated that playing roles in many of his projects caused him to be portrayed as ‘lolita’ in the media.
Natalie Portman had this to say on the subject:
I guess being sexualized as a kid took something out of my own sexuality because it scared me. The way I can be confident is ‘I’m conservative, I’m serious and you have to respect me. It felt like saying, ‘I’m smart and don’t look at me that way.
“DO NOT FEEL SAFE”
The actress, who married dancer Benjamin Millepied in 2012, added, “Whereas at that age you have your own sexuality, your own desires, and you want to explore things, you want to be open, but when older men are interested in you, you inevitably feel unsafe and say, ‘No, no, no. no no no!’ you say.” she continued.
“I DRAW THE IMAGE OF CHALLENGE”
Explaining that she built castles to protect herself, Natalie Portman also said that she paints an image of being chaste.
Portman, who gained fame by starring in films such as 1994’s “Léon: The Professional” and 1996’s “Beautiful Girls,” says, “I know I developed it consciously because it was a way to feel safe.” he said.
