"Sean Penn is a friend and colleague," the actress, 27, tells Usmagazine.com. "The reports that we are romantically involved are completely untrue."
Tabloid Star magazine claimed that Penn, 48 -- who recently filed for legal separation from his wife of 13 years, Robin Wright Penn -- and Portman were "making out" at West Hollywood's Sunset Tower Hotel in March.
Can you believe these stars dated?
The New York Post reported today the pair have been "cavorting."
But Portman continues: "I normally do not respond to rumors about my private life, however, this repeatedly fabricated story has forced me to do so."
Both Penn and Portman served on the jury of the 2008 Cannes Film Festival.

Penn -- who won his second Best Actor Oscar for his role in Milk earlier this year -- initially filed for divorce from Wright Penn, 43, in 2007, but his petition was later dismissed. Three days later, she filed her own paperwork. In April 2008, the couple's divorce petition was dismissed at their request.
Check out the most expensive celebrity splits of all time.
Portman split from indie rocker Devendra Banhart last September after four months of dating.

TrongodPS: Yes, I agree with @naazgol: I do love Natalie, I would find great joy in being a person to learn more about her in life, and on a personal level. It is also true that I think she is the most beautiful lady I know.report abuseposted May 28, 2009 5:41 AM PDT

TrongodWho cares about heir ages, Sean is not ageing well, and he is looking ruff! Natalie is a beautiful lady, and if any man happened to be dumb enough to lose her as his lady, then that guy is a total loser (i.e. Devendra Banhart)! I would love have a chance at having such a lovely and sweet lady as my own; I'd be happiest man in the world!report abuseposted May 28, 2009 5:38 AM PDT

Ujo'I can tell which way the wind is blowing without somebody else telling me.. Kind of like when I know how to put on a sweater before going out.. or when I have a major crush on someone.. I hope she don’t run and run trying to fool herself.. Just why doesn’t she quit the film business "For starter" ?!!report abuseposted May 17, 2009 2:04 PM PDT

NicoleOkay Crazyhollywood, this rumor has been out for a while. The reason they comment on it is because the press gets ahold of them through their manager (or whatnot) and asks for a comment/statement. They then choose whether or not to release a statement. Since this rumor has been flying around for a while, she probably finally decided to say something.report abuseposted May 15, 2009 3:05 PM PDT

CrazyhollywoodFunny thing is.. usually the FIRST thing I hear about some rumor is when the actor/actress comments on it. Until then, it's not really "out there". So.. do they just want the publicity?report abuseposted May 15, 2009 2:31 PM PDT

CrazyhollywoodI surely hope she isn't dating him. She could do SO much better.report abuseposted May 15, 2009 2:30 PM PDT
