Scarlett Johansson: “I Could Never Lose 14 Pounds”
September 30, 2009 in Scarlett Johansson by Versus
Since we saw Scarlett yesterday and some of you were saying that she has gained some weight (back), this quote of her from Glamour Magazine is quite interesting – Here’s the whole body-related part:
Scarlett Johansson is over endless speculation about her weight.
“There was this rumor mill cranking out stories that I had lost 14 pounds — I could never lose 14 pounds,” the actress, 25, tells the November issue of Glamour. “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,” she admits.
Johansson — who slimmed down to wear a lycra catsuit as the Black Widow in the Iron Man 2 sequel (out next spring) — has accepted her body, she says.
“You have to work with what you’ve got,” she says. But despite coming to terms with her figure, working the red carpet still makes her freak out. I have a tumultuous relationship with it because I love to get ready for the red carpet, but being on it is very uncomfortable. It’s so freakish and weird,” Johansson says. “I get flop sweats, dry mouth, heart palpitations, allover panic!”

love her
People say she’s curvy or feminine. But she has always been very slim, not skinny, but just fit and slim. Yeah, maybe she did not lose 14 pounds because she would look really skinny if she did. She’s short and losing that much would be really visibile.
I can’t even imagine her being super skinny, it’s just not her body type. I actually think she’d look gorgeous even with some extra weight.
she probably didnt lose weight for the movie, i would say she just toned up, a stone is a lot of weight for a shorter person to lose and i would say she was working out for the movie, therefore looked more lean and then when she was done filiming, laid off the super exercise regime.
I’ve always battled my weight a bit and losing 20 pounds when working out daily and losing 20 pounds from diet alone create a very different look.
I never understand when some people say she looks normal…she is gorgeous…she has such a slim curvy figure…and a pretty face…beautiful eyes…filled lips…
That is the body I like and aspire to have…normal girls do not have curves like that in the soooo right places…
I liked her when she was slimmer and I like her with some softness,too…I always like her…
…
who is this man in the pics with her? he looks Italian
pete yorn, an amazing singer and song writer
I think she is gorgeous but she is a very overrated actor. Everyone thinks she is an amazing actor….I just don’t.
But she is definitely one of the most gorgeous women in hollywood
….If she would just consider closing her mouth sometimes.
It just bugs me when women do the whole amateur model look.
I love her, but she is NOT a good actress… Thought I was the only one who have noticed.
hmm not really a fan of her’s, but she does look great with darker hair, love the first b&w pic.
great body she looks so pretty and fresh
Despite what she says, she did lose weight for the movie. Maybe not 14 pounds, but maybe 12, 10..etc. I don’t mind her number weight, but in the last post she did look actually untoned and a bit lumpy. She was no where near overweight, but I do think it would be in her best interest to at least keep tone, seeing as how the majority of her career was as a result of her body and not her talent.
Scarlett is one of my favorite actresses in Hollywood, she can rock anything, she’s a different beauty in a good way..she’s curvy and slim at the same time..she got one of the most beautiful smile too..
She looks amazing! Love her hair and make up. She looks anything but ordinary or boring in these photos. Regarding her weight, she looks to have lost a little for Iron Man 2 only to gain it back. She could definitely benefit from some toning exercises but her body is naturally very curvy. Anyway…she looks great here.
I agree! She’s gorgeous!
Scarlett is my favorite actress, celebrity, everything!
I lover her ’cause she rocks her slim, curvy, feminine figure, despite other celebrities that starve themselves (and don’t tell they’re not, please) and they don’t even look half better as she does.
Why being worried with diets if she doesn’t need to? lol
Please do not put links in your comments anymore, or they will end up deleted.
Whatever she may have lost, she already gained some of it back.
Scarlett is a gorgeous, curvy, in-shape, beautiful, stylish girl who is overall a good actress as well as a good person. Wow. It’s rare to be able to say that about a person in Hollywood, but Scarlett is just so talented and so gorgeous. I would love to have her body… although it’s not the kind some WOMEN prefer, GUYS love this kind of look!! What’s the point of looking like a ten year old boy? Scarlett has these amazing, enviable curves and she rocks them well… with/without the weight she is beautiful.
