Natalie Portman is backpedaling from her comments about Jessica Simpson

Natalie Portman is backpedaling from her comments about Jessica Simpson. Portman said that her intention wasn't to shame the singer. 

"I would never intend to shame anybody and that was absolutely not my intention," Portman told Entertainment Tonight. 

After the originial comments Jessica Simpson wrote on Instagram. "As public figures, we both know our image is not totally in our control at all times, and that the industry we work in often tries to define us and box us in.

However, I was taught to be myself and honor the different ways all women express themselves, which is why I believed then – and I believe now – that being sexy in a bikini and being proud of my body are not synonymous with having sex."

Portman continued on Entertainment Tonight. "I was really talking about mixed media messages out there for young women and completely apologize for any hurt it may have caused because that was definitely not my intention."

She added, "What I said was I was confused by mixed messages when I was a young girl growing up, and there are a lot of messages for how women should be, and women should be allowed to do whatever they want."
