Natalie Portman took a break from filming Hesher to address head on the rumors that she and Sean Penn are more than friends. She told Extra:
"Sean Penn is a friend and colleague. The reports that we are romantically involved are completely untrue. I normally do not respond to rumors about my private life, however, this repeatedly fabricated story has forced me to do so."
It's a rare step for Natalie to make such a public statement, so maybe if Sean ends up being a frequent guest at her new LA mansion, it's nothing worth raising eyebrows over.

You go Nat! I was hoping she would speak up about this because it was definitely ruining her reputation.
1I don't see them as involved and there is nothing saying two adults can't be friends.
2Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire.
She doesn't want to look like "the other woman" for fear it will hurt her career.
She and Sienna belong in the same S-L-U-T boat...
3regardless, it's kind of sh*tty for his teenage kids to have to hear these rumours while their parents are divorcing.
4I don't believe she's doing anything with him. They were probably seen together once and it was turned into an anonymous tipper saying they were cavorting. Yuck!!! I just don't believe it.
5ok, i believe her
6For those that don't believe Natalie, what proof is there that she spent romantic time with Penn? Nary a picture or any sort of evidence except for these very reliable "sources". I just don't get that logic. Good on Natalie for releasing a statement.
7Oh and I think I'll take Natalie's word over Star Magazine.
8wow - that's really WRONG of you to say LAMESS. she's certainly no slut - she's been in LONG TERM RELATIONSHIPS for most of her life and now she's linked to someone and there's been NOTHING out there to hint that she's truly with him. it's just a nice thought in my mind.
before you call someone a slut - you should look really closely (perhaps even at yourself)
9These famous actresses are NEVER innocent. Stop kidding yourself.
10Thanks Nat!!..
11I think LAMESS has some past issues that we don't fully understand regarding this issue. I definitely find it alittle strange to have such a strong reaction to this....
12i believe her.. i mean, she has the guts to step out and clarify, so i believe her
13but then again, there's always a slight possibility that she's really dating Sean because she seems to be the type that would fall in for someone very talented like Sean..
14Good for her for making a statement, she probably looked up to him as a father figure. Its a shame the media has to make up a bunch of bs just to get a story.
15Sean Penn is old enough to be her dad and is ugly as hell. Why would anyone believe this story?
16How come then,did they "disapeared" in a room at the Marmont for a few hours together.Was it to watch T.V ??!!
17Thats how the rumours started.
She is a home wrecked.
Im well disappointed in Natalie.
She's lying! of course she's going to deny it.
18She's always had an unconventional taste in men.
i always thought her to be intelligent and private. if she felt the need to defend herself publically, i feel the rumors are likely false. but who knows...i still think she's a talented actress regardless.
19I was feeling sorry for sean penn - she has the acting ability & hcaracter depth of a thunderbird puppet. I cant imagine her real personlity is that much better
20good, i'm glad she finally spoke up. no one wants to be publically branded as a homewrecker. i'm not sure i believe Nat, but i want to!!! hopefully the rumors arent true!
21Notice how Natalie only denied being "romantically involved." Last time I checked, you didn't have to be romantic to get naked. You could simply be drunk, bored or hanging out with an Oscar-winning actor who recently separated from his wife. Whatever floats your boat.
22Of course she's going to react about this..she's been involved with an older and marry man..she's doesn't wanna be marked as a homewrecker.
