I was going to pass on this article, but all kinds of sources report about this. So here it is, I took the one source with the most info i could find.

She hasn’t been seen on the big screen for over a year, mostly due to her continuous legal woes and recent house arrest. But it appears that Lindsay Lohan still thinks her acting chops are up to the standard of Oscar-winning actress’ such as Natalie Portman.

The 25-year-old troubled actress, who was back at work today on the music video set for Miggs’ ‘Let the Games Begin’ told a Miami reporter that she was disappointed that she didn’t get a coveted role in Portman’s hit film Black Swan. The proclamation came during a recent photoshoot for Plum Miami magazine in Miami, which took place back in May before her house arrest.

Although Lindsay posed for the magazine, she refused to do an interview with the publication’s writer Jacquelynn Powers, prompting the journalist to instead write an unflattering profile about Lindsay on the set of the shoot.

During her time in Miami, Lindsay claimed she ‘took ballet until she was 19 and was indignant that she was not considered for the movie Black Swan,’ Powers said.

There is a big baby boom right now in Hollywood as many of the biggest stars are either starting a family or expanding the one they have. Actress Natalie Portman and her fiance Benjamin Millepied welcomed a baby boy(their first child) back in mid-June and it wasn’t until recent that they announced the name of their baby, Alef.

On a recent episode of “Good Evening With Guy Pines”, an entertainment talk show in Israel, Natalie chose the name Alef(which is the letter A in Hebrew) as a way to become closer to her native homeland Israel. There is no word on a middle name if he even has one.

Natalie Portman has not officially released the name of her baby boy, however, the Israel Hayom newspaper is reporting the chosen name.

Black Swan actress Natalie Portman surprised us all when she announced last December she was pregnant and engaged to her choreographer, Benjamin Millepied. Since then, Portman has kept the details of her pregnancy and baby private from the press.

Portman, 30, and Millepied welcomed their baby boy last month but the private couple has not released a photo or the name of their baby.

We have been waiting anxiously to hear their baby name choice. Will it be unique? Weird? Traditional?

The newspaper Israel Hayom is reporting that the couple has named their child Alef, “like the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet.”

They report that the Israeli television show Good Evening with Guy Pines originally reported the baby news, with their source being Portman’s cousin.

Although Portman has not confirmed the news, the Oscar winner was born in Jerusalem so a Hebrew name like Alef is possible.

The Black Swan star, 30, was said to be celebrating the birth of her first child with her French-born dancer fiancé Benjamin Millepied, a well known choreographer.

The couple, who met on set of the movie in which she won her Academy Award, have not released their son’s name.

Friends and celebrities were quick to offer congratulations to the couple, who announced their engagement last year.

Ellen DeGeneres, the comedian and talk show host, led tributes, posting on Twitter, the microblogging site: “I’m so happy for my dance protégée Natalie Portman and her new baby boy! Congratulations!”

Lindsay Lohan, the troubled Hollywood actress, added: “congrats to #natalieportman for her beautiful baby boy!”

Congrats Natalie!!!

Actress Natalie Portman’s career started in childhood with ‘The Professional,’ spanned early adulthood in the ‘Star Wars’ prequels, with a shaved-head diversion in ‘V for Vendetta,’ and found firm, serious footing with an Oscar-winning performance in ‘Black Swan,’ all before her 30th birthday, which is Thursday, June 9, 2011.

Natalie is nominated for the “Best Kiss” category for her kiss with “Black Swan” costar Mila Kunis. This year’s MTV Movie Awards are gearing up for the live broadcast happening this Sunday June 5th, in L.A.

Natalie Portman and her beau Benjamin Millepied took an affectionate stroll through the streets of New York on Monday, and by the looks of it, Portman is getting nearer to her “this summer” due date.

While the “Black Swan” actress is keeping mum about the official date the baby is expected to arrive, she was talking baby names with Ryan Seacrest at the Golden Globes in January. “I’ve definitely been thinking about it, but I haven’t done the book or anything,” Portman said. “Open to suggestions!”
