Sean Penn is one of the most brilliant actors of our time, but all that talent can't help him get inside Natalie Portman's panties. Or so she says. In March, Star magazine reported that Sean Penn and Natalie Portman were seen sucking face at West Hollywood's Sunset Tower. The New York Post also ran a story that Sean and Nat are dating, but the gorgeous actress is sayin' it ain't so! Natalie has issued the following statement:

"Sean Penn is a friend and colleague. The reports that we are romantically involved are completely untrue. I normally do not respond to rumors about my private life, however, this repeatedly fabricated story has forced me to do so."

Sean filed for legal separation from his wife of 13 years, Robin Wright Penn. I believe Natalie, though, cause she can do no wrong in my eyes.
