Natalie Portman Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Natalie Portman has been making headlines on all fronts this week, showcasing an impressive blend of personal transformation and professional versatility. The biggest buzz right now surrounds her new romance with French music producer Tanguy Destable, reported by Us Weekly and confirmed by several major outlets. Sources close to the star say Natalie and Tanguy have been seeing each other for a few months and are having a great time, marking her first public relationship since finalizing her divorce from Benjamin Millepied in early 2024. Friends say she’s got her smile back and is radiating confidence, focusing on her own happiness following the split and prioritizing time with family and friends.

The internet lit up after Natalie made a surprise onstage appearance at Madison Square Garden just days ago. She danced alongside musician Role Model, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury, while he performed his viral hit “Sally, When the Wine Runs Out.” This mid-concert cameo had TikTok and Instagram in a frenzy, fueling a new meme and solidifying Portman’s playful, culturally tuned-in appeal. Pillsbury called her “Sally Portman” in his own Instagram Stories—an affectionate nod that quickly became trending fodder, as noted by outlets like People and IMDb. Their rapport isn’t just for show; Portman and Pillsbury are co-starring in Lena Dunham’s much-anticipated romantic comedy “Good Sex,” which just wrapped filming in New York. Portman plays a couples therapist embarking on a journey of rediscovery—art imitating life, perhaps, as she steps boldly into a new chapter both on screen and off.

Her professional profile remains dynamite. She’s gracing the September 2025 cover of Elle France with a bold, fashion-forward editorial titled “A Velvet Rebellion,” shot in a crimson blazer and sheer bodysuit. The shoot ditches Hollywood gloss for authenticity, showing Portman bare-faced, mid-laugh, and symbolizing her willingness to tear down old expectations. Meanwhile, she recently reunited with Zach Braff for a nostalgic, sold-out “Garden State” twentieth anniversary event, thrilling longtime fans. On her advocacy front, Portman revisited her early career in a candid exchange with Jenna Ortega for Interview magazine, recounting industry challenges as a young actress and reflecting on the public’s misunderstanding of her off-screen persona.

A recent appearance on the “Dan’s Talks” podcast cemented her status as both cinema royalty and a relatable New Yorker, with Portman sharing stories from her youth, her time in Paris, and the unique experience of filming “Good Sex.” On social media, she continues to express gratitude for her circle of friends, posting a heartfelt birthday tribute on Instagram in June to those who lift her up.

From viral viral stage cameos and splashy cover shoots to honest interviews and a headline-making new romance, Natalie Portman is rewriting her biography in real time—one post, one performance, and one bold move at a time.
