You Guessed: Natalie Portman
Not Quite! But Here’s a Star-Studded Secret…
Nice guess! But Natalie Portman actually did have a connection to Ruthless! The Musical.
Here’s the fun fact for you:
Laura Bell Bundy was the very first Tina Denmark in Ruthless! The Musical Off-Broadway in 1992 at just 11 years old.
Her understudies? None other than Natalie Portman and Britney Spears, both also 11 at the time!
