10 Oscar Winners Prove That the Academy is Obsessed with Appearances

7. Natalie Portman

The naturally slender Portman dropped over 20 pounds for her role as a professional ballerina in the award-winning film, Black Swan . Portman said that to prepare for the role, she underwent strength training and a grueling ballet regime beginning a year before filming. Portman notes that she was “really, really” tiny, but felt it was necessary to commit to the role. Portman was awarded the Oscar in 2010 for Best Actress.
