Scarlett Johansson Moves in with Ryan Reynolds

Scarlett Johansson has been dating Ryan Reynolds for about a year now (they started dating back in April) ... is it the time to move in with him?
Rumor has it that Scar Jo has decided that she will move in with Ryan, although her mom is totally and utterly against it!
Scar Jo is in the process of moving her stuff into Ryan's Los Angeles home and her mom is going berserk because she thinks it's still too early and her daughter is rushing into things.
Scar Jo has already met his parents and there has been news that the two are already engaged!

What do you think? Is it to early? Or is Scarlett too young for such a move?

Ten Things You Never Knew About Scarlett Johansson

By Beth Hilton, Entertainment Reporter : Scarlett Johansson is just a tad annoying, wouldn't you say? Not only has she been voted the sexiest woman alive, she's managed to enchant Woody Allen and dated the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Jared Leto and Josh Hartnett. Dolly Parton, Jenna Jameson and Courtney Love are all clammering for her to play them in a slew of biopics, David Bowie describes her singing as "mystical" and she's about to try her hand at directing. Oh, and Natalie Portman wants to grab her boobs! All this and she's just 23 years old. As 'ScarJo' slips on a corset and a British accent in The Other Boleyn Girl, we unveil ten fascinating facts about Hollywood's most sought-after star.

1. Scarlett was born in New York to a Danish dad and a Bronx-born Polish mum. As well as twin brother Hunter, who was born three minutes after her, she has a sister Vanessa and brother Adrian.


2. Scarlett had her heart set on movie stardom from an early age. She says: “When I was three, I used to tell my Mom I had a fire in my brain to act.”


3. Scarlett's been terrified of cockroaches ever since she woke up with one on her face. Yikes!


4. Scarlett lost out to little Lindsay Lohan for the role of a pair of mischievous identical twins in 1998 film The Parent Trap.


5. Despite having already starred in six previous movies, Scarlett was given an "introducing" credit for 1998 tear-jerker The Horse Whisperer!


6. Being romantically linked with Patrick Swayze would be Scarlett's "dream come true" and she reckons John Travolta "has everything I'm looking for in a man". She's not exactly immune to the Hoff either, describing him as "a hunk".


7. Scarlett's sex symbol status was sealed by a lingering shot of her knicker-clad rear in Lost in Translation. She says of the scene: "I told the director of photography that if he made my arse look bad he'd never work again!" "He was like, 'I promise you - it will look really nice', and he came through. My arse looked OK." Men around the world tended to agree.


8. Scarlett once named 71-year-old Woody Allen the sexiest man in Hollywood. She gushes: "He lets me call him Woodrow... I'd sew the hems of his pants if he asked me to." Allen in turn calls her "criminally sexy". Get a room, people!


9. Scarlett is no shirker in the charity department. She's an Oxfam ambassador, skipped last year's Oscar parties to visit India and Sri Lanka, donated cash to a Sri Lankan school and visited troops in Iraq. Angelina, eat your heart out.


10. Scarlett is nuts about cheese. She says: "My greatest vice is cheese. Nothing else reigns over my life."

Scarlett versus Natalie

In the new historical melodrama The Other Boleyn Girl, which opens Friday, Natalie Portman plays Anne Boleyn, the woman who would become the second of six wives of King Henry VIII (Eric Bana), only to be beheaded. Scarlett Johansson plays Mary Boleyn, Annes sister, and rival for the hand and the bed of the handsome Henry.

What would happen if we pit Portman and Johansson together as rivals? Who would win that competition? They are popular, highly in-demand young women in their 20s who mix major studio films with small, independent fare. They have both made successful transitions from child actress to adult, received major award nominations and been the muses of legendary directors. Neither has shied away from nudity. But who is actually the better actress? Or are they on an even playing field?

Scarlett Johansson Hits Back After Plastic Surgery Reports


Actress Scarlett Johansson is livid after a report in US Weekly implied that she had cosmetic surgery on her nose. The report in the magazine used before and after pictures of the 23-yaer old star to validate its claim that she had a nose job.
The article also quoted the star of The Island and Match Point in the article stating, “I definitely believe in plastic surgery. I don’t want to be an old hag. There’s no fun in that.” However, Johansson vehemently denies ever going under the knife to alter her looks. Johansson is threatening to sue US Weekly over the story. Funny enough, the story was first published in an article in Radar magazine in which Dr. Raj Kanodia claimed that over 60 percent of Hollywood women have had plastic surgery.
