Natalie Portman Blasts John Galliano

She’s the face of Christian Dior fragrance, but Natalie Portman wants nothing to do with John Galliano ever since he made some anti-Semitic statements

The “Black Swan” actress commented on an amateur video that hit the internet yesterday showing John, who appeared to be drunk, saying “I love Hitler.”

Natalie declared, "I am deeply shocked and disgusted by the video of John Galliano's comments that surfaced today. In light of this video, and as an individual who is proud to be Jewish, I will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way.”

“I hope at the very least, these terrible comments remind us to reflect and act upon combating these still-existing prejudices that are the opposite of all that is beautiful."
