So the second part of our homework assignment this week was to name a person who we consider to be a New Elizabethan. We can have chosen this person due to the fact that their fashion sense or style reminds you of or is inspired by the Elizabethan's or someone whos personality or achievements reminds you of an Elizabethan. The person I chos as a New Elizabethan is the Actress Natalie Portman. The reason I have chosen Natalie Portman is because on doing my research I find she shares some similarites with Queen Elizabeth herself. Queen Elizabeth was well kown for being an extremely intelligent and highly educated woman, not only did she have a great knowledge of politics, she was multi lingual and a master of controlling her self image.
Natalie Portman who has been in the spotlight as a hollywood actress froma very young age herself is also a very well educated and intelligent young woman, not only has she studied at Harvard University and gained a Bachelors in Psychology she also speaks fluent Hebrew, French and Japanese. Not only are they similar in the fact that they are both smart and enthusiastic about learning, they both take pride in their public image. In this day and age it is increasigly unusual to hear of a child star turned successful adult star and not being in the news at some point for some kind of bad behaviour. However Natalie portman is one of the very few stars of today who has never been named or shamed in any kind of trouble. Ms Prtman comes across as a very level headed young woman who clearly cares about her self image and the impct it may have on her career.
