Remember when the White House agreed to push forward President Obama's speech about U.S. involvement in Libya last month because people really needed to see Dancing with the Stars? Something similar has happened up north, where Thursday's French language political debate was moved forward to avoid conflicting with a Montreal Canadiens vs. Boston Bruins playoff game.

According to the AP, "With that many calories, women that age would need to be active to avoid gaining weight, walking more than 3 miles daily at a moderate pace."

Watch Little Natalie Portman Dancing At Camp
Seth Abramovitch · 04/10/11 11:39PMThe only thing that could make this dance recital by a duckling Natalie Portman at Stagedoor Manor theater camp (the same Borscht Belt conservatory that produced Robert Downey Jr., Zach Braff and Lea Michelle) more entertaining is if her legs had violently snapped backwards and she sprouted a pair of bloody wings.
