In the November issue of Marie Claire, Natalie Portman certainly revealed some skin. She was wearing a midriff-baring Dior Haute Couture dress while striking a sexy pose for the magazine's cover. In the interview with Marie Claire, Portman also discussed everything from her new life in France to the lessons her parents taught her while she was growing up, E! Online reported.

The 32-year-old Oscar winner will move to Paris "at the end of next year. Why? Her French husband, choreographer Benjamin Millepied was named the director of the Paris Opera Ballet. Portman said that she will miss California.

"I just really, really love it here," said the star. "It's one of the most exciting places to be in the world right now. It's really central in terms of the arts. It feels like things are happening in L.A., you know? New York is more where art is bought than where art is made."

"I'm really lucky," she added. "When Ben asked me if I wanted to go to Paris, I freaked. Everyone dreams of living in Paris."

Portman's next movie is Thor: The Dark World, which is a sequel to the 2011 movie Thor where she worked with Chris Hemsworth. Chris is, like, one of the greatest people in Hollywood," she gushed. "He's the kind of actor who's so charismatic, he must be tired when he goes home."

The star also thanked her parents in the interview. "They made me feel that they would drop anything at any time to help me. I never felt like there was anything more important than me. Which I know can probably create an a--hole, too. It gives you a deep sense of security and safety to feel that your parents will love you no matter what."
