Scarlett Johansson doesn’t want your lazy ass calling her “ScarJo.”
Now that Scarlett Johansson has a new movie coming out for the holidays – Cameron Crowe‘s WE BOUGHT A ZOO – she has an open forum to take issue with anyone who’s been bothering her in recent months. Recently on Letterman, she was able to talk about her stolen nude pics, which were leaked on the internet, calling attention to the douchebag who hacked them to begin with. And now, in the spirit of Festivus, she’s going to tell you all about the problems she has with people who insist on referring to her as “ScarJo.” Take it away, ScarJo.
“Oh, it’s awful,” she tells USA Today. ”It’s a laziness. People can’t actually say the whole name? It’s just bizarre.” She then wonders why actors like Daniel Day-Lewis don’t get called ”like, ‘DaDay’? So Cate Blanchett is not, like, ‘CaBla’? Why is that? Why do I have to get stuck”? Hmmm… I wish I had an answer to that, ScarJo, but I’m just too lazy to put any real thought into it… so ‘just because’ will have to do.
The article has a bunch of other stuff about ScarJo and her acting and her reaction to tabloids and what not, but frankly I’m just feeling too lazy to go into that right now, so, if you want to read it further, go right ahead. If you just want to lay on the couch, doing nothing, much more acceptable in my book right now.
reminds me of when Joan Collins (in her 80s “Dynasty” days) was frequently referred to in the UK as “The Bitch” and finally had a hissy fit asking people to stop.
