LOS ANGELES, June 15, 2011 (AFP) - Actress Natalie Portman, who in February won an Oscar for her lead performance in the ballet-themed thriller "Black Swan," has capped off her banner year with the birth of a son, US media reported Wednesday.

People magazine wrote that the boy was born to Portman and her fiance, French choreographer Benjamin Millepied, whom she met on the set of "Black Swan."

The baby is the first for the actress, who announced her pregnancy and her engagement back in December.

Portman, 30, who lives with Millepied in New York, is coming off a busy year in which she appeared in three films besides "Black Swan: the comedy adventure movie "Your Highness," the romantic comedy "No Strings Attached," and "Thor," a budget superhero flick.
