Natalie Portman vs Scarlett Johansson

Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson
Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson may just be 26 and 23 years of age, respectively, but they are two of Hollywood\'s most bankable and respected actresses. They can, after all, boast
Lost in Translation (2003) and
Closer (2004) between them. But, of course, it\'s not just for their acting skills that they\'re famous; their lifestyles intrigue us, too. Scarlett, with her to-die-for body and sultry glamour, and Natalie, with her astoundingly beautiful face and casual campus-chic, bring another dimension to their on-screen personae, so that we want to know who they\'re dating, where they hang out, and - most importantly for our purposes - what they wear. Now starring together in the film
The Other Boleyn Girl (with Eric Bana as Henry VIII), we thought we\'d grab the opportunity to examine just how they do it.

The girls have been working hard promoting their film, The Other Boleyn Girl (released Friday 7 March 2008). Set during the reign of Henry VIII, it presented the perfect chance to indulge in a little 16th Century-style fashion. Here they are, pictured arriving at the film\'s London premiere in Leicester Square. But whose bust-enhancing gown do we prefer - Scarlett\'s or Natalie\'s?
Out and about

Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman
A big part of any Hollywood star\'s life involves attending meetings, consulting with stylists or, ahem, researching an upcoming film role by shopping in
Bloomingdales. Scarlett and Natalie both have that casual off-duty look down to pat, but who does it better?
On show

A printed floral mini (or
Derek Lam romper, in Natalie\'s case), over black opaque tights and accessorized with a strappy shoe (Natalie\'s red patent Mary Janes are from
her own line for Te Casan) is evidlently a look favoured by both. Who works it better, Natalie or Scarlett?
On the red carpet

Another night, another premiere for
The Other Boleyn Girl, this time in Berlin (as part of the
Berlinale Film Festival). A cocktail dress was obviously deemed to fit the bill. Do we prefer Scarlett\'s heliotrope plunge-neck, or Natalie\'s no less sexy black lace adorned with blue chiffon?
The big cover-up

It\'s a chic girl who can pull off a bulb-skirted coat, or indeed a cape, but both our girls manage it with a smile. (Have you noticed that Scarlett\'s wearing
those black patent shoes again; she must like them!) Whose look do we prefer?
Party on

Tight and sexy, a la Scarlett, or understatedly stylish like Natalie - who rocks the strapless look better?
