Scarlett Johansson: I Look Like a Boy

Scarlett Johansson: I Look Like a Boy

Parade Magazine has the scoop on Scarlett Johansson in this coming Sunday’s issue with an interview by James Kaplan and photographs by Andrew Eccles.

  • On looking like a boy: “I don’t think my features are entirely feminine. Yes, I have full lips and obviously I have no facial hair. But…take somebody like Penelope Cruz. She’s so feminine. Think about it. She has, like, long eyelashes, and to me she just looks very feminine. When I wake up in the morning and I have no makeup on, like right now, I think I look like a young boy.”
  • On avoiding the paparazzi: “There’s plenty of restaurants and neighborhoods that I just try to avoid. It sucks—especially in New York, because you want to feel like you can walk around anywhere. But it’s okay. I think it’s an adjustment. It’s horrible that you have to make the adjustment, but being as I can’t change the state of where we are now, and I’m sure it will never change, you just have to make the adjustment. What’s the alternative? I don’t want to move to the middle of nowhere. I’m a city kid.”
  • On being called sexy: “It’s a nice compliment, I guess. It’s funny, because for a male actor the idea of being sexy can be very daunting. A lot of young male actors want to be chameleons and play all different kinds of characters. For a woman, I think it’s always a compliment to have people think you’re attractive.”

Scarlett, 22, was last spotted shopping in Paris yesterday with BFF Jessica Biel shortly after sitting in on the Louis Vuitton runway show. Five different Reebok ads have also been launched featuring the lovely Scarlett.

To the idiots that are saying she looks like a boy: if she wasn’t saying that, you wouldn’t be saying it, either. You’re just here having fun with the whole anonymous thing on the internet, faggats.

She does not look like a boy with or without makeup
She’s very attractive but has a serious eye problem

She was gorgeous in the Black Dahlia and the were scenes when she wasn’t packed with make-up and looked so good

i get what she;s saying, women with more diminuitive features (small eyes, nose, mouth) are considered more feminine. however, i do suspect she says things like that to deflect the fact that she’s quite the vain narcissist and recognizes the publics disdain for people who exude that attitude. these false self proclamations are Scarlett’s way of tempering her public image to make her more ‘likeable’.
