"Sean Penn is a friend and colleague. The reports that we are romantically involved are completely untrue. I normally do not respond to rumors about my private life, however, this repeatedly fabricated story has forced me to do so."Amazing that Natalie let this spread for so long before issuing a statement. If I was in her position, I would have been denying these rumors faster than that Ahmadinejad dude from Iran denies the Holocaust. I'd rather have people believe I fucked Al Roker than that commie Sean Penn.

"[Natalie] stimulates [Sean] in ways no other person has, mentally or professionally," says a source. "There's a lot more there with Natalie than any of the other girls Sean's been with."Natalie stimulates Sean in ways no other person has? Either Natalie has an eight-inch tongue or she learned how to recite Chairman Mao's Little Red Book in a Cantonese accent. Frankly, the fact that Natalie's dating a strange guy that's older than her shouldn't really surprise those of us that have seen
It was Sean's indiscretion with Natalie that encouraged Robin, 43, to stop turning a blind eye to his philandering. "She was furious he was messing around with such a young star," says an insider.


Is sending a chick a "first edition" book really how guys are picking up women these days? Back in my day, men were more "romantic." We'd slip a little something in our target's drink,They're keeping it very hush-hush, but I understand Natalie Portman is "intrigued" by Ryan Gosling, who has been actively wooing her since the couple met recently at an L.A. nightclub. Gosling has been kind of a regular DJ at the hot Bardot's nightspot. "Natalie always has been attracted to actors and other men who are intellectuals ... and Ryan qualifies," says a BZ spy who should know. Along with continual "and very poetic" text messages, the star of "The Notebook" reportedly has been sending Portman first editions of books he thinks she'd like. (Source)

"They went to a bank of elevators that only goes to the spa or to private rooms," an eyewitness tells Star. "They came back about 45 minutes later, and that's when I saw them making out. There's a door outside of the hotel's Tower Bar that has a bridge to the terrace, so it's semi-private. I used that path to get to the restroom, and when I came back, I had to go through some curtains — and that's when I interrupted Sean and Natalie! When they saw me, they were startled and quickly composed themselves." (Source)Rather than harp on how ugly and disgusting and dumb and gross and wrinkly and smelly Sean Penn is, I'd prefer to look at the bright side of this story. Before they were caught making out, Sean and Natalie were gone 45 minutes doing god knows what with each other. Well that's 45 minutes that Sean spent not talking about Karl Marx. I'd call that progress.
