Fresh off her Golden Globes Best Actress win, Natalie Portman has now been nominated for an Oscar in the category of Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role. As with her Golden Globe win, the nomination stems from her portrayal of ballet dancer Nina Sayers in the film Black Swan. The nominations for Black Swan don't stop there. The film is up for Best Motion Picture and also received nominations for:
