Natalie Portman in "extreme" lesbian sex scene

Feature by Cover Showbiz | 05 Nov 2009

Actress Natalie Portman has reportedly filmed an “extreme” lesbian sex scene.

The 28-year-old got intimate with another woman for Darren Aronofsky’s new psychological thriller Black Swan. It was her first same-sex love scene, and she is very proud of the result.

“It’s not raunchy, it’s extreme!” she laughed.

But while she has no problem finding challenging roles, Natalie is worried about what will happen to her career when she gets older. “You see people who were stars five years ago and already they’re waning,” she said. “As actresses approach 40, it starts becoming really, really difficult.”

While she hopes she won’t resort to cosmetic surgery to maintain her looks, Natalie refuses to rule it out.

“I would hope I won’t go under the knife,” she told V magazine. “But I won’t know how I’ll feel in a few years time. If I have a pimple I want to get rid of it.”

The actress also spoke about how her studies at Harvard University helped her be more selective about the movie projects she signed up to. She explained: “Going to school was a great barrier to doing too much. I had one slot open every summer. That makes you really, really picky.”
