Scarlett Johansson revealed a lot about herself on The Late Show with David Letterman last night…  for her 20th birthday, she celebrated it at Disneyland.  For her 21st birthday, Scarlett went to a NYC strip club with friends and family.  Yes, you heard that right.  A STRIP CLUB. With friends and family.

"When I turned 20, I had a birthday at Disneyland.  But this year, my brother wanted to go to a strip club, so we went there instead. I thought my brother wanted to go and he had the time of his life.  And I went and thought we’d round up the family and everything.  Family and friends.  It spans generations, you know what I mean?

So we got there and,of course somebody ordered me a lap dance, which of course at first I went, no, no, no and then I thought, okay, I will.  And this girl, well,  I never know what to say and I sort of say things like, ‘Are you in school?’ or ‘Is Candy your real name?’

But I had a very strange experience.  I had this very tall girl…  she was Amazonian.  She was this tall, really, really, really skinny girl.  And she was quite manic and strange.  So she’s kind of gyrating into me.  She was so thin that her pelvic or hip bone or some kind of bone bruised me.  It was horrible.  What I mean to say is that she was being all sexy and there’s areas that just bruise easily."

So, to summarize, Scarlett Johansson celebrated her 21st birthday at a strip a club with family and friends and got bruised by an Amazonian woman during a lap dance.  HOT or NOT?

FYI :: Scarlett let Letterman inspect her mouth as she’s getting all four of her wisdom teeth extracted.  Two of them are impacted… because I’m sure you wanted to know.

From acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan (Memento, Batman Begins), comes a mysterious story of two magicians whose intense rivalry leads them on a life-long battle for supremacy full of obsession, deceit and jealousy with dangerous and deadly consequences. From the time that they first met as young magicians on the rise, Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden (Christian Bale) were competitors. However, their friendly competition evolves into a bitter rivalry making them fierce enemies-for-life and consequently jeopardizing the lives of everyone around them. Full of twists and turns, The Prestige is set against the backdrop of turn-of-the-century London.

The Prestige stars Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Scarlett Johansson, David Bowie, and Michael Caine.  The film was originally set for release on October 27th but Touchstone decided to move the film up a week to October 20th. Besides, how can you go wrong?  It’s Batman vs. Wolverine!!!!  Watch The Prestige trailer below!

And Woody saw that she was good. Their second collaboration, Scoop, is just one highlight in a summer calendar jam-packed with cultural thrills. Scarlett Johansson and Woody Allen take the July 3 - 10, 2006 cover of New York Magazine’s "The Summer Issue."   Full article after the jump; bigger pictures in the gallery!

And God Created Scarlett

It’s a classic summer dilemma: Nebbish guy meets beautiful girl—say, on a beach—and struggles to find some way, any way, to impress her. Not having washboard abs or bulging pecs or nonprescription sunglasses, he relies on what he does possess—smarts. Normally this story does not end well. But every once in a while (or so nebbish mythology tells us), the guy strives and strains to impress the girl and she, in turn, inspires him to come up with something extraordinary: a witty joke. Then the woman laughs, the two click, and something quite wonderful starts up between them.

Now, Woody Allen doesn’t seem like he spends much time surfside. And Scarlett Johansson’s idea of summer in the city is “to get inside as soon as possible,” though she will be shuttling out to the Hamptons to film The Nanny Diaries (also why she’s gone brunette). Furthermore, their flirtation is strictly professional, played out on London film sets rather than hot sand.

Still, you can’t help imagining that Woody has been trying harder than ever to be funny for the sake of a beautiful woman—and it’s paid off. His two films with Johansson, Match Point and the forthcoming Scoop (July 28), have been his best in years. Scoop is old-school Allen comedy—a murder mystery solved by an aging magician (guess who) and a naïve young blonde (Johansson)—peppered with vintage-Woody one-liners. On how he maintains his svelte figure, his character responds, “I never gain an ounce. My anxiety acts like aerobics.” And then there’s his religious biography. “I was born into the Hebrews,” he stutters, “but as I got older, I converted to narcissism.”

When asked if he wrote those lines to impress Johansson, Woody doesn’t disagree—but he offers a caveat: “It’s very hard to be extra witty around a sexually overwhelming, beautiful young woman who is wittier than you are. Anytime I say anything amusing, Scarlett tops me.”

“It’s our shtick,” says Johansson, describing their update on the old Billy Wilder–Marilyn Monroe routine, in which Allen plays the mischievous old wiseacre and Johansson sunnily gives as good as she gets. After they hit it off on the set of Match Point, ribbing each other ceaselessly, Johansson told Woody she’d love to act with him onscreen—and Woody drummed up a script in a matter of months.

“He has a giant brain, which he says is due to the fact that he tried to impress the girls when he was younger,” she says. “But that’s not true. He has a genuine thirst for knowledge. And he’s a very passionate person about work and music and all kinds of things—certainly about women.”

Scoop is also a romance (with Hugh Jackman as the leading man, and not Woody, in case you were worried), and Johansson says she’s been surprised to find that Woody’s “actually very sweet and thoughtful and romantic, in his own strange way.”

Of course, part of their shtick is that the two compliment each other to the point of absurdity. Allen, film’s most famous atheist, has even said Scarlett was “touched by God.” So has Scarlett made Woody a believer?

“I can only quote myself from the movie Manhattan,” he says. “Scarlett is God’s answer to Job. God would say, ‘I’ve created a terrifying and horrible universe, but I can also make one of these, so stop complaining.’ ”
