One Actress That’s Not Showing Her Body Boston Metro

Monday, May 8, 2006

We hear the bosses over at L’Oreal are getting a little frustrated with Scarlett Johansson, who they’re paying $5 million to star in one of their campaigns. Sources tell us that the actress refuses to show off her body in the ads. “Scarlett wants to ditch her sexy image and become a more serious actress. She doesn’t want to use her body anymore — she has talent and wants to be recognized for that,” an insider says. Maybe she’s just still upset about the fact that Isaac Mizrahi groped her breasts on the Golden Globes red carpet instead of asking her about her work. Meanwhile, spokeswomen Eva Longoria and Peneleope Cruz are doing “whatever L’Oreal wants them to do.” Considering that it’s a cosmetics brand, we’re not sure why the company is so eager to show off anything more than their face anyway. “They are getting a bit fed up that Scarlett is being so precious. She needs to [change] her ideas quickly or they might want some of that cash back,” the source adds.
