That guy married to Natalie Portman has a new job in Paris

1/25/2013

Natalie Portman's husband has been named the new director of the Paris Opera Ballet. The news has Hollywood a-twitter over whether Portman will leave, at which point America will weep because she is a precious angel and national treasure. Benjamin Millepied, whom Portman famously met on the set of "Black Swan," is an in-demand choreographer and former principal dancer of the New York City Ballet, and he most recently founded the L.A. Dance Project. The gig doesn’t start until September 2014, which gives us all several months to get used to the idea that Millepied, Portman and their son are probably heading off to France, unless they’re really into long-distance relationships.
