Natalie obviously had little interest in posing for the cameras at LAX the other day, but what does interest her these days is working with developing countries. As the Foundation for International Community Assistance's (FINCA) Ambassador of Hope, she's launching the Village Banking Campaign. The campaign will open over 100,000 community banks in the poorest regions of the world, allowing men and women access to loans and banking services they wouldn't otherwise have. She even shot a documentary in Mexico recently documenting the people they were able to help. As if we needed another reason to love Natalie.

I'm glad that she's supporting a good cause.
1But I've always been iffy about Natalie...I'm not really a fan of hers.
I love Natalie, shes gorgeous!
2It's always good to see a celeb working for a worthwhile cause
3Even when she is traveling she is beautiful...so lucky!!
4She looks beautiful all the time,,,I like her.
5Pretty girl.

her!!! She is just wonderful!
7sweet
8Ah Natalie is so great.
9Oh, I adore Natalie. She is my favorite actress :]
10she is the most boring celebrity on the planet...
11why does she keep getting followed?
I love her in The Professional. She is about acting and doing humanitarian work, not partying and being stupid. If you think that's boring, too bad, at least she is doing something meaningful with her celebrity status instead of just making more and more money like some celebs such as Kate Moss.
12She has talent and beauty.
13I do like her movies.
14The girl is boring as hell, but its great that she's helping others.

'Contrary to popular belief....ignorance is NOT bliss'
She's never flippant nor impudent
16I like it
I love Natalie; she's talented and intelligent.
17Natalie can be quite naughty too I bet. I think Jake and her will make a lovely couple. Though I'm rooting for Aniston and Jake also.
18She bores me.
19I love that scarf
..If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice

A little goes a long way in some of these countries. For $10 somebody in Africa might be able to open up a business.
22i love natalie portman! she is so adorable and such a great actress. my husband likes her too, but for other obvious reasons. lol
23I hope they are going to offer micro-loans as well. hhmmm... I can think of several other celebs who do charity work & have their motives questioned. Wonder why no-one does that w/ Natalie? (whom I LOVE so no-one jump all over me)
24I saw some article the other day of the prettiest celebs without make up! Why wasn't Natalie on the top of that list??? I mean I love Drew and she's adorable but I think Natalie is probably one of the prettiest people ever!
25luv her
26Agree with everyone who thinks she rocks!!
What a truly inspirational young woman, obscenely talented, intelligent and genuinely caring, and a real and proper role model for young girls everywhere. In a way it's a shame that she's not more high-profile so that more young girls could divert their attention and their aspirations away from the vacuous and superficial Hilton/Ritchie/Lohan/etc brigade, but I guess it's the fact that she keeps such a low profile that makes me respect her all the more.
I really, REALLY heart Natalie.
27OK; she's cute, but what has she done lately to be famous?
28Oops sorry, this comment was meant to keri's article (next); I am actually a fan of Natalie...
29Ditto Maggie Mae.
30I like what FINCA is doing, it seems to be a great organization. It's cool that Natalie is their Ambassador of Hope, her heart is in the right place.
31She looks tired. I dont blame her for being grumpy.
32She's awesome!
33she seems like a smart sweet girl
