Natalie Portman: White House Correspondents Dinner

Natalie Portman dons an elegant Balenciaga halter dress (with interesting cut-outs) at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday night (May 9) in Washington, D.C.

The 27-year-old actress was a guest of Newsweek. “My table is pretty good,” she says, “It’s Geithner, Gates and Valerie Jarrett. I’m looking forward to that.”

That would be Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Senior Presidential Adviser Valerie Jarrett.

This year, the annual dinner featured President Barack Obama and comedian Wanda Sykes.
