Scarlett Johansson: Curves are what make me a woman

Actress says she'd never want to be stick-thin

Scarlett Johansson has hit out at skinny actresses, saying she loves her shapely figure.

'There are a lot of actors around Hollywood who are just too thin for my taste,' she says.
'I don't understand this obsession for being stick-thin. I could never be like that – it's just not my body shape.
'I would never want to lose my curves, because curves are what make women look like women. They are what make you sexy.'
But Scarlett, 23, confesses that she'd never allow herself to put on too much weight.


'I'm a person in the public eye and I need to maintain a certain appearance, so I'm not going to balloon into somebody who is very much bigger than I am now,' she tells Weekend.
'But there's a weight I can maintain which is slim and healthy, and I think I can be my own judge of what feels comfortable to me and how I like my body to look.'

Scarlett Johansson in quickie wedding

Scarlett Johansson married her fiance Ryan Reynolds over the weekend in a hush-hush ceremony.

Publicist Meredith O'Sullivan confirmed the couple had married, but did not provide details.

The story was first reported by Us Weekly on its website, saying the small wedding took place at a resort in Vancouver with family and friends in attendance.

Johansson recently said the pair were "just enjoying our time".

"So, you know, we're just taking it easy. And no big plan yet. But it's a good time and we're just ... enjoying our time to be young and engaged.

"I mean, I'm 23. There's no reason to rush into it. Everything feels very natural and relaxed."

Reynolds, 31, was born in Vancouver, and he and New Yorker Johansson have been engaged since May this year.

She rose to fame as a child actress in movies such as The Horse Whisperer and increased her starpower in films like Lost in Translation and Match Point.

Reynolds began acting as a teenager, gained notoriety through comic roles in films like Van Wilder, and recently has starred in dramas such as sci-fi mystery The Nines.

Scarlett Johansson on Monogamy

While she admits it may not be the natural instinct of human beings and that it does require effort, actress Scarlett Johansson feels that she and fiancé Ryan Reynolds will never stray from each other, WENN reports. Johansson feels that she and Reynolds are among the elite group of people who can actually stay in monogamous relationships. “Monogamy can be hard work for some people. I don't think it applies to everybody, and I don't think a lot of people can do it,” she muses.

However, Johansson, as her past bears out, feels she can do it. On previous relationships with people such as Josh Hartnett and Jared Leto, the actress says: “I believe in finding a soul mate. I've always been in monogamous relationships. I would never want to be in an open one. It'd be too awful.” But the actress also admits: “I don't think it's a natural instinct for human beings” to remain monogamous. Psychology aside, Johansson and Reynolds – who announced their engagement in May – are ready to travel the long haul together.

The Spirit's Sexy Femme Fatales Finally Speak!

What do you get when you cast Eva Mendes, Scarlett Johansson, Jaime King, and Sarah Paulson together? Frank Miller's The Spirit of course! If you're getting excited just thinking about these four bombshell beauties kicking ass, then just wait until we share with you this fun little "talking" poster set today. We've featured a couple of sexy posters for The Spirit previously, including this one with Eva Mendes, but nothing compares to this. Yahoo has debuted the full quintuplet set of femme fatale posters for The Spirit with an extra special feature. If you head to their page and mouse over each one, you can hear the actual line quoted on the poster being spoken. That just makes your heart melt, doesn't it?!

I wonder if someone actually questioned the quotes the first time around and Lionsgate thought it would be "fun" to use the actual audio to prove that they came from the film. I know I got a kick out of hearing the sexy voices of Mendes, Johansson, King, and Paulson. I mean, who wouldn't want to hear Scarlett Johansson say "on your knees then" or Jaime King say "come to me lover." What a brilliant marketing stunt! This page has been open for the past few hours on my computer - I can't get enough of it!

The Spirit is both written and directed by legendary comic book author Frank Miller, who previously worked with Robert Rodriguez to direct segments of Sin City. The film is based Will Eisner's newspaper comic strip of the same name that originally debuted in 1940. The Spirit will hit theaters everywhere on December 25th, Christmas Day, later this year. Watch the teaser trailer if you haven't already!

The Scarlett (Johansson) Letter is "O" for Obama

With all the comparisons to JFK that Barack Obama has had lately, it's about time he gets his own Marilyn Monroe. Actress Scarlett Johansson has made her support of Obama no big secret. In the past she's quipped that she's "engaged" to the presumptive Democratic nominee (actually, she's betrothed to actor Ryan Reynolds) and appeared in his star-studded "Yes We Can" YouTube video. Now the Lost in Translation star tells Politico.com that she and Obama are pen pals.

The Daily News is all over the story, declaring on page 3, "OMG! BAM & SCAR JO R CYBER PALS!" with a glam shot of Johansson in a low-cut dress juxtaposed with a photo of Obama boarding a plane. The inevitable backlash is looming. I can already picture the columns in right-wing media: "Obama has time to cyberchat with movie stars, but what does he do for Joe Sixpack?" Considering that the current critiques of the candidate are about his amnesia on when he had his last cigarette and his audacity to hire "D.C. denizens" to assist in his VP search (see Michelle Malkin on page 6 of today's Post), kvetching about shooting off a few e-mails to a movie star could be a quick, glamorous way to impugn Obama. Add a few innuendos and voila!—instant "scandal."

Even Johansson herself understands that her constant campaigning for the Illinois senator could spur a backlash. She tells Politico.com, "Even I’m wary of celebrity endorsements…I don’t want to seem like I’m holier than thou. We all have the same right to vote and, especially in this technical age where we all can broadcast our opinions, we all have the opportunity to entice others to vote…if the spotlight is on me, I might as well try to direct it on things and causes that I believe in." Maybe it's time to dial it down a bit, ScarJo.
