So you are going to play yourself? That would be a mindf**k.

Howard Stern played himself in "Private Parts." But I'm not going to do it now. I'd like someone else to play me. Natalie Portman! In a little beard.

That's a really horrible image�. Natalie Portman with a beard, on crack?

Not necessarily on crack.

You�d whitewash that?

Well, that can be in the film. But we'd say, "Natalie, just pretend you're on crack." When she was making "Leon" ["The Professional"] as a little kid, she didn't kill those people. Oh, she did? I'd let her off. How could you stay mad at Natalie Portman, in that little beard?
