Roseanne Barr slammed actress Natalie Portman in a recent interview, calling her “repulsive” for refusing to attend an award ceremony in her honor because she didn't want to appear to endorse the Israeli prime minister. Speaking to Israel Hayom, an Israeli national newspaper, the comedian criticized Portman over her action. “Like many Israelis and Jews around the world, I can be critical of the leadership in Israel without wanting to boycott the entire nation. “It was really sickening, I find her repulsive," Barr said of Portman, who was born in Jerusalem. He is expected to receive that award from Netanyahu in Jerusalem in June.
