Scarlett Johansson Says “No” to Diets and Gyms
February 10, 2009 in Scarlett Johansson by Versus

Scarlett recently told In Touch Magzine…
What’s the strangest rumor you’ve heard about yourself?
The plastic surgery stories really drive me nuts.Why is that?
It’s so false. A photo of me as a 14-year-old is juxtaposed with a photo of me at 24. Then they’ll say: “Oh, the nose looks different!” Why don’t they say: “Oh, did she get new breasts?”It’s refreshing that you don’t subscribe to the scary-skinny craze in Hollywood.
That’s the biggest nonsense ever! Count me out. I don’t understand what’s supposed to be sexy there. And besides, I like to eat to much.Do you diet?
I have never been on a diet in my whole life.Do you have to work out a lot?
I’ve seen gyms only from the outside. I feel very comfortable with my body.























I wish that everybody in Hollywood could think like her….!!! I love her, she is great, simple and pretty!
i agree…i wish more people in life in general would think that way…but going to the gym every once in a while wouldnt hurt
I like that she doesn’t diet and that she likes her body but I disagree with her on the gym thing… working out and exercising is not all about being thin it’s also about health, everyone should exercise. If she does not exercise than she definitely should
Agreed.
I would like to say that just because she says she doesn’t go to the gym, it doesn’t mean she doesn’t exercise at all.
there is a stark difference between dieting and eating the appropriate amount of calories and nutrients, and scarlett seemingly understands that… but yes, as has been echoed here, exercise is a part of the HEALTHY lifestyle, not just those starving to fit into a size “whatever”.
firstly, i hope this is true.. secondly, lucky her for not needing to diet or go to the gym to get her perfect body.. n thirdly, gd for her for not wanting to be auper skinny n not giving into the pressures that im sure she gets in hollywood.
Surely we can’t put any stock into what she’s saying: she’s 24. If she’s of the same mindset when she’s 30, her health is going to suffer and she will most certainly not look as good as she does now.
I personally think that a little exercise would benefit her tremendously because as it currently stands, she is skinny-fat. It is just a matter of time before the fat-to-muscle ratio is no longer in her favor.
i also think that her mentality of not being hollywood skinny is admirable…and eating what you want is a good motto! But i also agree about exercising…i don’t diet but lately i’ve been doing some cardio and my energy level has shot way up and boosted my metabolism.
Agreed…She is a great role model for kids and good for her for not starving herself to a size 0. But yes exercise is healthy and everyone should do it. Not to be a certain size but just to be healthy.
i cant believe every1 on here actually believes something printed in a magazine…
honestly, im shocked! i dont believe her about dieting one bit!!
Going to the gym once in a while isn’t a bad thing….
But if I looked like her, I’d feel the same way. She’s gorgeous! And I love her feeling about the skinny girls… I was a little obsessed, but I agree, there’s just nothing sexy about it!
Good for her! she doesn’t ned to workout or diet anyways, she perfect the way she is.
however, the noes job photos she is talking about, clearly point out a nose job. her whole nose was different. I think she mad b/c everyone knows she wasn’t born tht perfect. we all have our flaws, and so what if she went under the knife once?
she makes references to her bust. nobody was every suspicous that she wasn’t well endowed. with that referal, is she implying we should be suspicious?
she rocks. the lack of exercise #might# catch up with her some day but her attitude is awesome.
Well, just read a news story today that just might put people’s fears about her lack of exercise to rest. She is reported to have signed on to play Black Widow in the next “Iron Man” movie. Now I’m not a comic book reader, so I don’t know the character, but going by her looks, Scarlett is a damn good pick for a comic book babe
I think she looks really cute here. I think she’s telling the truth about dieting; she probably eats a ‘healthy diet’ naturally and doesn’t go on starvation diets.
that dress and her hair I love that. and the dress even though its such a big pattern it works for her.
I think she was just saying she doesn’t like gyms I mean you can exercise other places than a gym like outdoor spors or just at home.
It’s great that a celebrity is comfortable in her body and doesn’t obsess about gyms/diets. It’s good to be healthy, but not to go overboard! Scarlett looks healthy, happy and it looks like she actually eats something!
