Two Hollywood actresses face their fears. Sandra Bullock has been dragged into a custody battle with her husband's ex wife, a former porn star named Janine Lindemulder. Sandra's new hubby Jesse James has a child with the woman and they are in court battling over custody. Meanwhile Natalie Portman doesn't feel comfortable with taking off her clothes on film, but only because of the online video leaks and still shot photos that always follow, as both stories do below.

One - Natalie Portman is scared to strip off on film - in case it ends up on pornographic websites. The Star Wars actress said she is happy to take her clothes off for a suitable role. But she worries that X-rated sites will end up exploiting her image.

She said: "It's annoying because online (BS) interferes with what I want to do artistically. "I'm not opposed to sexuality or nudity in a film, but I'm very opposed to pornography sites and you're pretty much giving them material if you do any of that. It's always a big dilemma for me."


Israeli-born Natalie, 28, said that she asked directors to rewrite a nude scene in her 1999 movie Anywhere But Here because it made her feel uneasy: "I was figuring out my own sexual identity, likes and dislikes and all that stuff, and it's weird to be doing stuff on film as you're figuring it out."

She also said that she began to receive strange mail after she appeared in 1994's The Professional - also known as Leon - when she was 13. She said: "Also being a sexual object when you're a kid is really uncomfortable. After The Professional, I was already getting creepy letters."


Two - Janine Lindemulder didn't have the same fears, in fact the former wife of Jesse James make a living off the adult movie world. Philippa Bourke and Tina Johnson cover more here of the continuing case.
