How awful would it be if you were a hot celeb? We don’t mean getting all the free stuff and invites to the cool parties, but the constant pregnancy speculation! Last week, poor Nicole Richie blasted people who suggested she was up the duff, and now it’s Scarlett Johansson’s turn to deny she’s full of baby.
Scarlett, 26, was spotted running with new boyfriend Sean Penn (50!!) and friend Owen Wilson (it was a pretty celeb jog, we’ll be honest) in Malibu yesterday and the picture obviously caught her at a funny angle, as she didn’t look her normal gorgeous self.
In fact, she looked distinctly curvier than she has done ever before. Instead of thinking she’d started on the Easter eggs early (you know you have too) the internet started screaming about Scarlett obviously being up the stick.
But she’s not. “Scarlett is not pregnant,” her spokesperson said. “She's outside running and it's simply the placement of her shirt that is misleading. She's been training for The Avengers for over four months and is in the best shape of her life.”
There we go then. You’ll be glad to know she’s not in as good a shape as Owen and Sean, though, as the boys were pictured running off ahead of Scarlett, leaving her trailing behind. Or maybe she was letting the old men feel good about themselves.
Let’s say that, and not that they were being competitive boys, shall we?
