From Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow in the Avengers, to Anne Hathaway as Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, we look at some leading ladies who kick butt!
YOU MOST CERTAINLY ARE, ANNE – AND ADAPT YOU DID – FOR THE ROLE OF CAT WOMAN IN THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED BATMAN SEQUEL – “THE DARK KNIGHT RISES.”
AS FOR GETTING INTO SHAPE FOR HER CHARACTER, THE ACTRESS ADMITS IT WASN’T EASY AND THANKS TO HER WARDROBE QUOTE, “I'm a vegetarian and right now, I'm living on kale and dust for the training. That catsuit's unforgiving.” MEEEE-OW!
WHEN IT COMES TO COMIC BOOK BABES, ITS HARD TO IGNORE HOTTIE WITH THE BODY JENNIFER GARNER!
HER PORTRAYAL AS ELEKTRA WAS SO SIZZLIN’ THE FIRST TIME AROUND IN DAREDEVIL, THEY COULDN’T HELP BUT GIVE HER, HER OWN FEATURE.
WONDER IF KICKING HUBBY BEN AFFLECK’S BUTT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH HER MOTIVATION?!
WHEN IT CAME TIME FOR UMA THURMAN TO ‘KILL BILL’ – THE ACTRESS WAS ACTUALLY PREGNANT. SO WHAT’S ANY GOOD DIRECTOR TO DO? HALT PRODUCTION UNTIL YOUR LEAD IS READY TO ROLL.
AND SPEAKING OF ROLES, CLEARLY UMA TOOK HER MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING PRETTY SERIOUSLY --
01:22 – UMA: No kidding, cuz I heard it was kind of hard…
BECAUSE IN THE END – SHE DOES IN FACT, KILL BILL!
BUT IN OUR OPINION, THIS IS WHERE IT ALL STARTED. WHO CAN FORGET THE FIRST TIME WE SAW LINDA HAMILTON’S GUNS IN TERMINATOR 2.
THIS TIME AROUND SARAH CONNOR WAS 100% MUSCLE AND TOTAL BAD-ASS… AND SHE CAN PRETTY MUCH TAKE CREDIT FOR A HUGE MOVEMENT OF WOMEN BULKING UP THEIR BICEPS.
SO WHO’S YOUR FAVORITE BUFF BABE ON THE BIG SCREEN. HIT US UP ON FACEBOOK AND LET US KNOW!
SCARLETT HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRAISED FOR HER GOOD LOOKS AND CURVACIOUS BODY, BUT WHEN SHE SCORED THE ROLE OF "THE BLACK WIDOW" IN 'THE AVENGERS' SHE HAD TO KICK HER DIET AND WORKOUT INTO HIGH GEAR.
SHE TELLS FOXNEWS.COM, “You have to eat a really clean diet, a lot of kale and salmon. Basically you get all your nutrients and then training like crazy. The training is crazy, but you just suck it up and do it.
BUT EVEN WITH ALL THE DIETING AND EXERCISE, THE STAR WAS STILL WORRIED ABOUT HER BODY. SCARLETT HAD THIS TO SAY WHEN SHE VISITED THE DAYBREAK MORNING SHOW IN THE UK.
"Every woman has body worries. I'm not exempt from that, But the by-product of spending that much time in the gym is that you can fit into a cat suit."
AND SHE DEFINITELY ROCKED THAT CAT SUIT. SO NOW THAT SHE'S DONE FILMING WHAT'S ON SCARLETT'S MIND? CHICKEN WINGS! SHE TELLS FOXNEWS,
“ [I am obsessed] with buffalo chicken wings, I am addicted to them. You will have to roll me down the red carpet next time you see me.”
PAUSE - WHAT HAPPENED TO WORRYING ABOUT HER BODY??? WELL, JUDGING BY THE LOOKS OF SCARLETT AT THE MOVIE’S PREMIERES, WE'D SAY SHE HASN’T STARTED PACKING ON THE POUNDS JUST YET.
THEY WERE ONLY MARRIED FOR TWO YEARS WHEN SCARLET AND RYAN BROKE UP. AND SHE SAYS, THE SPLIT CAME AS SOMEWHAT OF A SHOCK. THE BLONDE BOMBSHELL TELLS VOGUE IT WAS HORRIBLE.
“It was devastating,” SHE SAYS. “It really throws you. You think that your life is going to be one way, and then, for various reasons or whatever, it doesn’t work out.
SHE ALSO ADMITS THAT LIFE AFTER RYAN HASN’T BEEN EASY.
“I don't feel on the other side of it completely, but it gets better," SHE ADDS, "It's still there. More than anything, it's just that not having your buddy around all the time is weird. There's no rule book. I think it's just time."
AND NOW IT SEEMS LIKE SCARLETT HAS MOVED ON…TO AD EXEC NATE NAYLOR.
SHE ALSO FAMOUSLY COZIED UP TO OSCAR WINNER SEAN PENN. ABOUT THAT HOOKUP WITH THE 51-YEAR-OLD SHE TELLS THE MAG, “I never put a title on it, really, but we were seeing each other."
THANKS FOR ADMITTING YOU’RE HUMAN, SCARLETT. WITH YOUR NEW AVENGERS MOVIE COMING OUT AND THOSE SUPER POWERFUL GOOD LOOKS – WE WERE STARTING TO WONDER.
IT’S ONE OF THE MOST HIGHLY ANTICIPATED MOVIES OF THE YEAR, AND NO SURPRISE THE HOLLYWOOD PREMIERE OF THE AVENGERS DID NOT DISAPPOINT.
ROBERT DOWNEY JR ARRIVED ON THE RED CARPET IN STYLE—AND IN CHARACTER! THE SET OF WHEELS? TONY STARK AKA IRONMAN’S NINE MILLION DOLLAR ACURA!
RDJ POSED ALONGSIDE HIS WIFE SUSAN IN A DARK PURPLE THREE PIECE SUIT COMPLETE WITH MATCHING GLASSES OF COURSE!
SCARLETT JOHANSSON CHANNELED HER INNER BLACK WIDOW OPTING FOR A SIMPLE BLACK STRAPLESS GOWN
THE FLICK’S OTHER LEADING MEN—CHRIS HEMSWORTH, MARK RUFFALO, JEREMY RENNER AND CHRIS EVANS ALL PUT AWAY THEIR SUPERHERO COSTUMES FOR THE NIGHT- AND SUITED UP FOR THE OCCASION… HOW DAPPER DO THEY LOOK?!
BUT DON’T GET TOO USED TO THE COAT AND TIES. THE EPIC SUPERHERO FLICK HITS THEATERS MAY 4- AND WITH JUST ABOUT EVERY CHARACTER FROM THE MARVEL UNIVERSE MAKING AN APPEARANCE.. THIS IS ONE MOVIE MASHUP YOU ARE NOT GONNA WANNA MISS!
LOTS OF CELEB NEWS THIS WEEK, BUT ONE OF THE BIGGEST SHOCKERS HAS TO BE THE ONE ABOUT ELISABETTA CANALIS REBOUNDING FROM GEORGE CLOONEY WITH STEVE O…AND THAT GOT US THINKIN’ ABOUT A FEW MORE REBOUND ROMANCES THAT GIVE A WHOLE NEW MEANING TO THE WORDS, “LOVE IS BLIND.”
SHE WAS ONCE MARRIED TO THE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE…BUT WHEN SCARLETT JOHANSSON DIVORCED RYAN REYNOLDS SHE FELL RIGHT INTO THE 50-YEAR-OLD ARMS OF…
SEAN PENN…
AND IT’S BEEN SAID SHE WAS THE ONE WHO PURSUED HIM RIGHT AFTER HIS DIVORCE FROM ROBIN WRIGHT… BUT THEY ONLY LASTED A FEW MONTHS, BEFORE SEAN BROKE IT OFF, REPORTEDLY BECAUSE HE DIDN’T WANT TO BE TIED DOWN.
A FEW MONTHS AFTER CHELSEA HANDLER ENDED HER LONGTIME RELATIONSHIP WITH A NETWORK EXEC, SHE STARTED HOOKIN UP WITH 50 CENT…
AT FIRST SHE DENIED IT, BUT WHEN SHE FINALLY FESSED UP ABOUT FIDDY, SHE SAID, “He's actually a lot different than you would think. He's really sweet. I thought it was kind of amusing that I would even be with 50 Cent; I thought it was funny.”
RACHEL MCADAMS AND RYAN GOSLING WERE TOGETHER FOR THREE YEARS AND EVEN GOT ENGAGED…BUT THE NOTEBOOK STARS DIDN’T HAVE A STORYBOOK ENDING
RACHEL HAS SINCE MOVED ON TO HER MIDNIGHT IN PARIS CO-STAR, MICHAEL SHEEN…
“That’s great we can spend some time together…I’m sure we have a lot of commitments…what?”
AND EVER SINCE THE TWO FIRST WENT PUBLIC WITH THEIR ROMANCE LAST YEAR, THEY HAVEN’T STOPPED GUSHING ABOUT EACH OTHER…HE’S CALLED HER “TALENTED, INTELLIGENT, BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING,” AND SHE SAYS HE’S “FANTASTIC”….SOUNDS LIKE THESE TWO ARE THE REAL DEAL…
STILL, WE JUST CAN’T GET THIS PICTURE OF HIM AS A VOLTURI VAMPIRE OUT OF OUR HEAD… WELL YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY… “BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER.”
2011 MAY BE REMEMBERED FOR ALL THE HIGH-PROFILE CELEBRITY MARRIAGES THAT WENT SOUTH. BUT WE WANNA MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBER ALL THE SINGLE PEOPLE THAT HAD A LOT OF FUN THIS YEAR.
BLAKE LIVELY WAS SINGLE AND READY TO MINGLE IN 2011 – AFTER SPLITTING WITH PENN BADGLEY LATE IN 2010. THE “GOSSIP GIRL” STAR DATED LEONARDO DICAPRIO THROUGHOUT THIS SUMMER, THEN AFTER THINGS WITH LEO FIZZLED, SHE STARTED HITTING THE TOWN WITH RYAN REYNOLDS.
SPEAKING OF RYAN, HIS EX SCARLETT JOHANSSON SPENT THE YEAR BEING LINKED TO A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT STARS – INCLUDING JOSEPH GORDON-LEVITT, SEAN PENN, KIERAN CULKIN AND EVEN BRADLEY COOPER. BUT SINCE SCAR-JO IS TIGHT-LIPPED ABOUT HER PERSONAL LIFE, WE’LL JUST HAVE TO GUESS WHICH HOOK-UPS ACTUALLY HAPPENED.
BUT SINGLE LADIES WEREN’T THE ONLY ONES PLAYING THE FIELD THIS YEAR.
WE’VE ALREADY MENTIONED BRADLEY COOPER BEING LINKED TO SCARLETT, BUT SHE’S NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HE SUPPOSEDLY SPENT SOME QUALITY TIME WITH. THE LEADING LADIES LINKED TO PEOPLE MAGAZINE’S SEXIEST MAN ALIVE INCLUDE: J-LO, OLIVIA WILDE, JENNIFER ANISTON (PRE JUSTIN THEROUX, NATCH), ZOE SALDANA AND EVEN FRENCH ACTRESS MELANIE LAURENT. WHAT A BUSY GUY!
OH YEAH, BACK TO RYAN REYNOLDS. AFTER THE DIVORCE, HE SUPPOSEDLY FOUND COMFORT IN THE ARMS OF SANDRA BULLOCK, BUT HAS FINALLY COME FULL CIRCLE AND IS GOING STRONG WITH BLAKE LIVELY.
OH WHAT A TANGLED WEB THEY WEAVE. BUT GLAD IT’S WORKING OUT FOR SOME OF THEM.
Tis the season- to switch up your ‘do!
Check out the celebs we spotted out and about this week showing off their new looks.
She found love and some serious big hair!
Always one to keep us guessing with her ever-evolving hair styles, Rihanna showed off a more natural color with some major body and curles at an after party in Milan.
We are major fans of this look!
Justin Timberlake’s on-again gf went for a darker hue for winter. Jessica Biel debuted her darker locks Monday night at ball for Charity Water. She paired the look with an LBD- and we have to say that we don’t miss the ombre one bit. We hope dark is here to stay!
And Scarlett Johanasson stepped onto the red carpet at the We Bought A Zoo looking very mod.
The old Hollywood updo was a new look for the 27 year old star who complimented her style with a Dolce and Gabbana- and co star Matt Damon of course!
Katy Perry can’t get enough In-N-Out burger, model Miranda Kerr loves homemade fried chicken, Scarlett Johansson gets down with Burger King and more of celebs’ favorite junk foods!
WHEN IT COMES TO GRUB, WE’VE ALL GOT OUR FAVORITE GUILTY PLEASURES – AND THESE CELEBS ARE NO DIFFERENT.
MIRANDA KERR’S SLIGHT PHYSIQUE MADE HER FAMOUS, BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN THE VICTORIA’S SECRET MODEL DOESN’T LOVE TO EAT – HER FAVORITE FOOD IS HER OWN HOMEMADE FRIED CHICKEN. DON’T STRESS IT, GIRL: AIN’T NO THING BUT A CHICKEN WING.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON SAYS SHE GENERALLY EATS HEALTHY, BUT WHEN SHE GETS A CRAVING FOR FAST FOOD, SHE THINKS ROYALLY.
THE ACTRESS SAYS SHE LOVES BURGER KING’S CHEESEBURGER MEALS – FOR THE CHAR-GRILLED TASTE *AND* THE TOY THAT COMES WITH THEM.
KATY PERRY IS ALSO A BIG BURGER BACKER, BUT HER RESTAURANT OF CHOICE IS WEST COAST FAVORITE IN-AND-OUT BURGER.
THE “CALIFORNIA GURL” HAS TWEETED HER DESIRE FOR A DOUBLE-DOUBLE ANIMAL STYLE A COUPLE TIMES – EVEN WHEN SHE WAS ACROSS THE POND, ON TOUR IN GERMANY.
WHAT KATY, ISN’T A LITTLE OF THE LOCAL BREW GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?
MARIAH CAREY’S MEAL OF CHOICE IS PIZZA – BUT THE DIVA TELLS NOW MAGAZINE THAT IN ORDER TO KEEP HER SIGNATURE FIGURE JUST THE WAY SHE LIKES, SHE DOESN’T INDULGE. SUCH ARE THE SACRIFICES OF CELEBRITY.
ONE SINGER THAT DOESN’T HAVE ANY ISSUE WITH GRABBING A SLICE IS GWEN STEFANI. THE NO DOUBT SINGER PROVED THAT WHEN SHE TWEETED THIS PIC OF HER CHOWING DOWN AFTER HER 2010 LAMB FASHION SHOW. SOMETIMES A GIRL’S GOTTA EAT.
ScarJo is reportedly regretting her split from Ryan Reynolds, telling Cosmo she misses “having a partner and a confidant.” But how does she feel about his new love, Blake Lively?
SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE’S HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS ABOUT DUMPING THEIR HUBBY! WE HEAR SCARLETT JOHANSSON IS TOTALLY HATIN’ ON BLAKE LIVELY!
RYAN REYNOLDS AND BLAKE LIVELY HAVE BEEN GOIN STRONG FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW, AND APPARENTLY THAT’S NOT SITTING WELL AT ALL WITH HIS EX.
AN INSIDER TELLS US WEEKLY, “Scarlett is pissed that he's not under her spell anymore. She realized what a great catch Ryan was.”
THE COUPLE, WHO WAS MARRIED FOR TWO YEARS, ENDED THE MARRIAGE A YEAR AGO. AND IT ONLY TOOK HER A FEW MONTHS TO MOVE ONTO SEAN PENN. BUT THAT ESSENTIALLY ENDED ANY PLANS FOR THE TWO TO GET BACK TOGETHER.
THE SOURCE ADDS, “Ryan would have gotten back with her. He was so totally in love. But then she flaunted Sean right after their split, and he was done.”
NOW SCARLETT’S SAYING THAT GETTING MARRIED WAS QUOTE, “the best thing I ever did.” SHE TELLS THE NEW ISSUE OF COSMO, “It grew out of a romance and love and a desire to have a future with somebody and I was very fortunate that I married somebody who turned out to be the person I thought he would be.”
HMM, MAYBE THE SINGLE LIFE ISN’T ALL IT’S CRACKED UP TO BE, SHE ADDS, “I’ve never been single for a chunk of time before. You miss having a partner and a confidant.”
SOUNDS LIKE THE TABLES HAVE TURNED FOR SCARJO – DESPITE OTHER REPORTS, LIKE A STAR MAG STORY THAT CLAIMS BLAKE IS QUOTE, “SMOTHERING” AND PRESSURING RYAN TO COMMIT.”
THE US MAG SOURCE ADDS, “Things are great for Blake and Ryan. They haven't had a fight yet!”
The Avengers star poses for the cover of December’s Vanity Fair and spills on how the nude photos were on her phone, plus details about her split from Ryan Reynolds!
WHEN SOME STARS FIND THEMSELVES AT THE CENTER OF A NUDE PHOTO SCANDAL, THEY’RE QUICK TO SAY – PHOTOSHOPPED! BUT NOT SCARLETT JOHANSSON!
SCARJO’S OPENING UP ABOUT THOSE NUDE PICS SHE TOOK OF HERSELF – YOU KNOW THE ONES A HACKER STOLE AND BLASTED ON THE INTERNET – AND SHE’S ANYTHING BUT MODEST…
THE STAR TELLS VANITY FAIR “I know my best angles.” THE DECEMBER COVER GIRL ALSO EXPLAINS WHY SHE TOOK THE X-RATED PICS OF HERSELF IN THE FIRST PLACE, SAYING, “Those are old, from three years ago. They were sent to my husband. There's nothing wrong with that,” AND SHE ADDS, “It's not like I was shooting a porno — although there's nothing wrong with that either.”
BUT SHE’S MORE TIGHT-LIPPED ABOUT WHAT SHE FEELS IS ANOTHER INVASION OF PRIVACY… HER DIVORCE FROM RYAN REYNOLDS.
SCARLETT SAYS, “I didn’t really know what to do with myself. It was such a strange time. There was nothing that was interesting to me. I had a very public separation. It was difficult. I felt very uncomfortable.”
BUT AT LEAST SHE’S COMFORTABLE IN HER OWN SKIN… YOU CAN READ MORE OF SCARLETT’S INTERVIEW IN THE DECEMBER ISSUE OF VANITY FAIR.
