Natalie Portman's Hilarious Home Movie

Aired on 11/11/1999 | CC
Like many aspiring actresses, Natalie Portman went to theater camp growing up. Her favorite home movie, in fact, showed a performance of Cabaret where her friend tumbled to the stage when her chair slipped out from under her during song-and-dance number. During an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show to promote Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace, Natalie played the videotape for the amusement of Oprah's audience, and in typical Oprah fashion, the unfortunate friend who fell, whom Natalie hadn't seen since camp, was in attendance and popped out to surprise her.

Watch to see how Natalie reacts.
