“Black Swan star Natalie Portman is green-eyed with envy over co-star Mila Kunis!” begins a piece in the National Enquirer.

Portman, who plays the lead in the ballet thriller, is supposedly “not happy” that Kunis’ supporting performance is generating Oscar buzz.

“This was supposed to be Natalie’s BIG role, so she’s totally upset that Mila is getting so much praise,” claims a so-called source for the mag.

How come?

“Natalie knows that the Best Actress category is more competitive and Supporting Actress honors usually go to an unexpected newcomer – like Mila,” says the tab’s “insider.”

So, is Portman actually jealous of her costar possibly taking home an Oscar?

Not at all.

Portman’s rep tells Gossip Cop that the Enquirer piece is “absolutely not true.”

In fact, the two actresses “are good friends,” says the rep, who adds Portman “couldn’t be happier for Mila and all the recognition for the film.”
