14 DAY TRIAL // Scarlett Johansson is one of the most gorgeous women in industry at the moment, but she’s far from becoming a diva and beginning to act like she’s God’s gift to humankind. At 25, the actress has a flourishing career, is branching into music and, to make matters even better, is happily married to a man as good looking as she is. In the latest issue of Glamour magazine, Scarlett opens up about her personal life and how she deals with fame, along with addressing other topics of general interest.
She’s been in so many blockbuster productions and has generated so much media, that many would expect Scarlett to be accustomed by now to having hundreds of pairs of eyes gawking at her whenever she walks the red carpet. Yet, she isn’t. In fact, the actress reveals, while she loves getting ready for the red carpet and it is one of her biggest pleasures, she dreads the act itself, since she still gets the jitters whenever she thinks of so many people staring at her.
As for her gorgeous husband, Ryan Reynolds, Scarlett has only good things to say: they’re in love and, even if they did not specifically start out in the relationship with the purpose of getting married, they’re incredibly happy. “I never really thought about getting married – it just kind of happened… You hope that a relationship makes you better, that you learn things about yourself… I feel more confident to explore things within myself that I hadn’t thought about in the past.” Johansson says.
Unfortunately, no matter how happy they are at home, the gossip mill will never shut down completely, which is why they’re constantly plagued by rumors of separation and divorce. Not that Scarlett is letting all this speculation get the best of her – she’d already learned her lesson when she started training for the part of Black Widow in “Iron Man 2,” when word began to circulate that she was starving herself to fit the lycra suit. She has a very healthy body image and would never put herself through something this damaging just to please someone else, Scarlett tells Glamour.
“There was this rumor mill cranking out stories that I had lost 14 pounds – I could never lose 14 pounds… I hate seeing these ridiculous articles where [tabloids] guess someone’s weight… I can’t look at somebody who is 6 feet tall and 120 pounds and say, I’m going to get that body. That’s just never going to happen. You have to work with what you’ve got.” Scarlett adds for the magazine.
