Natalie Portman - In "Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace" (1999), Natalie was cast in the role of Queen Padmé Amidala, which often appeared to be two separate people. Since many scenes called for the two characters to appear together, a decoy was brought in. In some scenes, Natalie appeared as Padmé while the Queen's decoy, Sabe, appeared as Queen Amidala.
The correct answer is 'True'
Although a decoy was used to play Queen Amidala in some scenes, Natalie did appear as both characters throughout the film. Her voice was digitally enhanced to distinguish between Queen Amidala and Padmé. At the time of the film's release, the producers ran a disinformation campaign to suggest that Natalie played the Queen and Padmé at all times throughout the movie. In reality, Sabe (played by Keira Knightley) was the Queen's decoy. Perhaps because of this campaign, it was said to be difficult to figure out which actress was playing the Queen. Entire websites were devoted to figuring out whether it was Natalie or Keira playing Queen Amidala at any given point. When fully dressed and in make-up, Natalie and Keira so resembled each other that even Keira's mother, upon visiting the set, had trouble identifying which was her daughter. One trick I've learned (as a huge fan of both actresses) was to look at the eyebrows. Natalie's were noticeably straighter than Keira's, who had more of an arch.
Natalie received multiple award nominations (but no wins) for her role in this film, not all of which were honorable. Those nominations included: Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films Saturn Award for Best Performance by a Younger Actor/Actress (2000); Blockbuster Entertainment Award for Favorite Actress - Action (2000); Csapnivalo Awards Golden Slate for Best Female Performance (2000); YoungStar Award for Best Performance by a Young Actress in a Drama Film (1999). On a negative note, she was also nominated for a Razzie Award (which "dis"honors the worst achievements of the movie year) for Worst Screen Couple (2000), a nomination shared with Jake Lloyd (who portrayed Anakin Skywalker).

The UK's Most Talentless Celebrities - This next person achieved public notoriety in 2004 when it was revealed that she had enjoyed affairs with both Sven-Goran Eriksson (at that time manager of the England national football team) and the Football Association’s Chief Executive, Mark Palios.
The correct answer is 'Faria Alam'
Mr Palios was forced to resign, and Sven later became a tabloid hate-figure when England (predictably) crashed out of the football World Cup in 2006. It would appear that Faria’s desperate bid for celebrity failed, as she subsequently more or less disappeared from the gossip pages of the tabloid press (despite appearing on “Celebrity Big Brother” in January 2006).
