Scarlett Johansson is fast becoming one of Hollywood’s sexiest, hottest celebs. Not a lot is actually known about her, as Johansson does not discuss her personal life with the press. She prefers to stay private. However, we do know that Johansson is a cheese fanatic, as she once said; “my greatest vice is cheese. Nothing else reigns over my life.”
She is not afraid to break the Hollywood stereotype either, as she has repeatedly criticized the media and Hollywood for promoting an image that causes unhealthy diets and eating disorders among women.
“that being ultra-thin is not sexy at all. Women shouldn’t be forced to conform to unrealistic and unhealthy body images that the media promote.”
When asked about how she stays in such great shape, she says that she relies on eating well and walking a lot. She admits that at just 24 years old, she still youth on her side. She sometimes does yoga, but puts are slim figure mostly down to living in the city, as “you do a lot of exercise and eat smartly.”
On Weight Issues in Hollywood, she told Australian Health & Fitness that “… there are actresses who I look at and say ‘They’re too thin for my taste’. I think that’s something that’s bought and sold by the media. It’s like someone said to me yesterday: ‘It must be so difficult for you. Aren’t you upset at the media coverage of celebrities and their private lives?”
Also, she does admit to eating a bit junk food, and the odd over indulgence!
“I like Burger King cheeseburger meals, because I like the toy and I love the charbroiled taste. So good. My dad is Danish. That makes me half Danish I suppose but I was born and raised in New York so I don’t consider myself to be European. I go to Denmark, I was there recently and we just had our first niece so I was in Copenhagen. I am really happy when I am there and I get really fat too, I can’t stop eating all the yummy food.”
She famously sums up her attitude with the following message:
“I am normal. I have ‘fat days,’ and I’m never going to be 5″11′ and 120 pounds. I’m not really the type of girl who goes jogging at 6 a.m., but I eat well and I walk a lot.”

It’s refreshing to hear a celebrity female who is also rated as one of the most beautiful in the world talk openly her weight, food and how she doesn’t aspire to be 120 pounds.
Obviously she likes to look good and stay in shape but she realizes that ultra skinny look is not that attractive or healthy.

that’s just an excuse for not having to be too thin

I disagree Sarah. For a start, surely no one wants to be “too thin”? Most importantly, she looks good. Size zero is just not attractive. Skin and bones are favoured by fashion designers as it makes their craft easier, but few men like a size zero woman. Women should be athletic and curvy.
