Scarlett Johansson’s new Fall/Winter 2009 Mango ads have finally been released. I was really wondering how they would turn out since I think the camera loves her. And of course I love the black and white picture the best, I think black and white pictures let you focus on the important parts of the picture.
What do you think of these pictures? Is this going to make you buy Mango now?
Ed Westwick was at the K-Swiss and NYLON for the debut of the K-Swiss Remastered Classic sneakers at Bloomingdale’s in New York the other day. I know I had no intention of posting about it until I saw the video of the dance-off. Ed really has a thick English accent and I have never heard it like this before. I am a sucker for accents. I love listening to them.
He talks about his celebrity crush, the celebrity crush he has always had. (Scarlett Johansson if you don’t want to watch.) And he says that Ed has way more style then Chuck Bass ever did.
As I understand it, a lot of boys who grew up in the 80’s and saw Labyrinth (who didn’t?)forever have a crush on Jennifer Connelly. But I think even our 80’s boys would notice the bejeweled swap-monster ‘dress’ that Connelly wore to the premiere ofHe’s Just Not That Into You (do NOT call it a ‘rom-com’, dear Lord). Um…we’re just not that into her dress. Or rather, we hate the dress so much we’d like to burn it and throw it under a train and then let it be used as a tarp to paint a doghouse.
Apparently, some of us can’t let go of the horrible phenomenon that was shoulder pads. And by some of us, I just mean Jennifer. She’s got great legs and the focus is drawn there, when you aren’t starring at the abhorrent sparklyness everywhere else…
On second look, are those shoulder pads…or are her shoulders that bulky and square? The above is actually one of the more flattering pictures of her. Sad.
Additional notes:
Drew Barrymore: You are not pulling off your Audrey Hepburn deconstructed look.
Jennifer Aniston: You look leathery and like you’re trying too hard. Probably because you are.
Ginnifer Goodwin: You actually rocked your look. Pose, pose!
Scar Jo: Um, your hair makes you look mousey. Way to go. The dress is fine, however.
Not only was Vicky Cristina Barcelona a hot movie it also won Best Picture – Comedy at the 2009 Golden Globe Awards! It stars Javier Bardem, Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz. I finally got a chance to watch it last night. I’m not sure how this is a comedy though..but I guess with all the wine and the sarcastic narration I missed it. I found it more of a drama.
Vicky Cristina Barcelona is a story of two American women on a carefree Spanish holiday meet a charming local painter and become enamored by him, only to have his intensely passionate ex-wife reenter his life and stir up trouble.
I found it was a passionate movie. With all the love in the air and the sexiness of Javier I was just hoping everyone would be able to get him in the end. One thing is for certain I am totally obsessed with Scarlett’s hair! I need it!
There are no extra’s with this movie which is a downside. I would have loved to see the bloopers that Scarlett and Javier had between each other. But in any case it was released to DVD on January 27 and is 93 minutes long.
The Spirit, a movie starring Eva Mendes, Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L Jackson, is coming out on Christmas Day. It has really cool effects my favorite part when they color one thing on the screen and leave the rest black and white.
Adapted from the legendary comic strip, THE SPIRIT is a classic action-adventure-romance told by genre-twister FRANK MILLER (creator of 300 and SIN CITY). It is the story of a former rookie cop who returns mysteriously from the dead as the SPIRIT (Gabriel Macht) to fight crime from the shadows of Central City.
His arch-enemy, the OCTOPUS (Samuel L. Jackson) has a different mission: he’s going to wipe out Spirit’s beloved city as he pursues his own version of immortality.
Here are the three spots: Angels & Demons, and the other two after the jump, Power andBelieve.
Scarlett Johansson is the November 2008 issue of CosmoGIRL, which happens to be the last issue of the magazine. Inside the issue she lets it be known that she is a political activist trying to get everyone voting. Here are some highlights of the interview included:
DO YOU FEEL LIKE CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENTS ARE JUST A NATURAL PART OF THE MEDIA SURROUNDING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS? In this day and age, the media has this 24-hour news cycle that they need to fulfill their obligation to. And it seems like celebrities are a huge part of that, so it just seems unavoidable. It’s important to bring to light certain issues. If this spotlight is already shining on me and I feel like there’s a worthwhile cause, then why not direct it toward that? I hope that my [involvement] encourages the youth population to go out and inform themselves.
SO IS IT TRUE THAT YOU GIVE YOUR BROTHER, HUNTER, ADVICE ON DATING? You know what? It is true, actually. Who else has he got? I’m the first source, right? He gets a firsthand point of view from a girl his same age. I love it. I feel like it’s something nice that we can bond over.
WHAT’S THE FIRST THING THAT COMES TO YOUR MIND WHEN YOU HEAR THE WORD HAPPINESS? Things that make me happy are being with my friends and family, and also things like a challenge — using my brain, you know? That makes me feel good. When I’m challenged and when I feel like I want to get to the bottom of something, when I’m engaged, that makes me happy. Being engaged in something or bettering myself in some way.
Miss Johansson is now Mrs Reynolds since the interview. She married her boyfriend, Ryan Reynolds, in Vancouver.
