mother

Just read that she became mother jpost.com Can someone edit the article, I dont speak enough English. 92.65.2.138 (talk) 13:55, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Already added under the Personal life section. –CWenger (^ • @) 14:53, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong date

The date for her son says June 6, but it's actually June 14. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Netsketch (talk • contribs) 02:24, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to sources looks like birth was on the 6th, announced on 14th. Name probably has been determined by parents, just not announced yet. Bluebonnet460 (talk) 21:03, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Military service

An anon posted in March 2011 (check archives) that was wondering if Portman had to serve in the military. Well, here you go:

In fact, the only shadow that hangs over this rigidly managed career is the strange rumour that she has dodged the Israeli draft. By law citizens of Israel (where she was born), both men and women, must serve 21 months in the army at 18. The line from the Portman camp was that she must be exempt because she left Israel before she was 16 and is not resident there. And it would be unfair to suggest she has shed her Jewish heritage; she speaks fluent Hebrew and recently played Anne Frank on Broadway -- something very close to Portman's heart, especially when you consider that two of her grandparents were killed in the Holocaust. 75.5.10.254 (talk) 03:13, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

claim in the opening is clearly wrong

The claim that Portman "learned to speak with a British accent for her starring role in V for Vendetta" is clearly wrong seeing as how the role she is most known for, Star Wars,which came well before V for vendetta she also spoke with an english accent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.188.25.170 (talk) 07:47, 8 July 2011 (UTC) Nevermind I guess. Wikipedia seems to covet verifiability over truth. Luckily this topic is completely unimportant 68.188.25.170 (talk) 02:30, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
