Breaking news now as it is being reported that Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are engaged. He is 31, she is 23, and they’ve dated for just about a year now. People magazine says…

“They’re both thrilled.”

The Nanny Diaries star is expected to show off her sparkler at Monday night’s Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala in New York. Sources say Johansson is eager to “show off her rock” with her Dolce & Gabbana gown.

Ryan used to be engaged to Alanis Morissette and I can’t wait for her next song about this shit. If Alanis did write a song it would be called “Scarlett is going to marry my gay ex-fiancé”. I’m pretty sure he’s gay Donkey Punch. Who is going to tell Scarlett? I volunteer to tell Scarlett. She can cry on my shoulder (as long as she doesn’t sing).

Scarlett Johansson was in Iowa supporting Barack Obama on Thursday (Jan. 4, 2008). She even treated other Obama supporters to a fifteen-minute speech. Guess it worked!

I like the below photo of Johansson talking about something worthy of hand gestures. You know all the poor boy heard was “Blah blah Obama blah” because he was concentrating so hard on trying not to get hard.

UsWeekly put Scarlett Johansson on the cover this week’s issue and asks the question “Did they or didn’t they?” have plastic surgery. They also had an expert go through and guess what work she’s had done. Scarlett Johansson isn’t too pleased and is threatening to sue the magazine. Her rep issued this long ass statement to OK! Magazine:

“US Weekly’s cover story regarding Scarlett Johansson and its clear implication that she has had plastic or cosmetic surgery on her nose is an outrageous and defamatory fabrication lacking any conceivable basis or proof, despite vehement denials by Ms. Johansson prior to publication. Not surprisingly, US magazine cannot provide the dates when she supposedly had this surgery, who performed the surgery, or what was supposedly done — all because there simply is no truth to the story. The publication made a pathetic attempt to validate its story by using two cover photos of Scarlett that were taken years apart with obviously different make-up and lighting, and then relying on an “expert’s opinion” (based solely on looking at the two photos) on what “might” have been done. It wasn’t.”

Scarlett added, “I have always been straightforward with the press regarding my body image and I am very concerned that my fans (and perhaps even my employers) will feel mislead. Thus, I feel compelled to take immediate legal action against US Weekly.”

Sue them or shut up. I don’t think Scarlett has had much work if any, but I don’t think her “true fans” (straight men) really give a fuck, because I don’t think they are looking at her face when she’s onscreen. I don’t know if she got surgery or not, but it certainly looks like her nose went from big to less big.
