The "Black Swan" star and her fiance Benjamin Millepied are expecting their first child summer.

Unlike Portman, Meryl Streep wasn't even showing when she picked up her Academy Award on April 11, 1983, for her performance as concentration camp survivor in "Sophie's Choice". Streep didn't mention her pregnancy in her acceptance speech, but her first daughter Mary Willa "Mamie" Gummer, who interestingly is now an actress, was born that August.
