‘Black Swan’ star Natalie Portman is expecting a baby with fiance Benjamin Millipied, in case you’ve been living under a rock. And on Portman’s way to Sunday’s Oscars red carpet, she swaddled that baby bump in any number of glamorous getups.

The Ministry is proud to present a mini-restrospective on the pregnant Portman, above, from left, with her looks from Saturday’s Independent Spirit Awards, the Feb. 7 Oscar nominees luncheon, the Jan. 30 Screen Actors Guild Awards and the Jan. 16 Golden Globe Awards.

Will Portman win the lead actress Oscar? Time will tell — but for now we’d like to give her an unofficial ‘nicely played’ nod.
