Oscar winner Natalie Portman says she’s “shocked and disgusted” at new footage of a famous Christian Dior designer praising Hitler and telling a young woman that her forefathers would have been “gassed.”
Portman — who’s Jewish and recently signed an endorsement deal with Dior — released a statement saying, “I am deeply shocked and disgusted by the video of John Galliano’s comments that surfaced [Monday].”
Portman adds, “In light of this video, and as an individual who is proud to be Jewish, I will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way.”
Galliano — the chief designer for Dior — has been FIRED by the company after a video surfaced showing John launching into a VERY anti-Semitic rant at a cafe in Paris … and insulting a woman for being “ugly.”
