WINONA RYDER GETS INTO THE HOLIDAYS WITH SHOPPING

Winona Ryder stopped to chat with friends on a Los Angeles street corner over the weekend after shopping at Marc Jacobs and Kate Somerville Skin Care.

Upon her departure, the 39-year-old actress tried to hide under her hat after spotting the shutterbug.

Meanwhile, Winona admits that it was difficult to verbally abuse Natalie Portman for the camera.

In ballerina-themed thriller Black Swan, Winona’s character embarks upon some unhinged behaviour, forcing her into verbally abusing Natalie for the good of the production.

However, she has revealed that such outbursts don’t come naturally to her, saying: “I wrote to Natalie and got her something when I had finished filming, saying, ‘I’m so sorry I had to say all those horrible things.’ The scene where I trash my dressing room was my last scene. I remember my first boyfriend used to smash everything – at 18 everything is dramatic. I took an Evian bottle and tried to break it really meekly. He made fun of me… even in that dressing room scene I was like, ‘Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!'”

Darren Aronofsky‘s film stars Natalie and Mila Kunis competing for the prima ballerina role in Swan Lake, replacing Winona’s disgruntled character.
