Prior to being cast as Mathilda in “Léon: The Professional,” Natalie Portman was actually a member of the World Patrol Kids (via Billboard). At 11 years old, the future star was singing about recycling and that kids can change the world. You can see her musical stylings in this amazing video (via YouTube) at around the 1.12 mark where she provides a harmony with her bandmates.
“There were, like, eight people who would come in and out,” she recalled of the group during an appearance on James Corden’s “The Late Late Show” in 2016. “We would perform at, like, Earth Day. It was really dorky, OK?” (via YouTube). Corden also happened to have a clip of her singing on hand, to which Portman unsurprisingly reacted with humor and embarrassment (via Entertainment Weekly). This isn’t the only time Portman has lent her voice to music. In 2005, she rapped in the track “Natalie’s Rap,” which aired on “Saturday Night Live,” as well as videos for Paul McCartney and Devendra Banhart (via Billboard).
