Beautiful and inspiring superstar actress Scarlett Johansson, graces ELLE’s February 2013 cover in a white dress by Victoria Beckham, along with white leather peep-toe booties by Manolo Blahnik for Beckham, in a ten-page photo spread shot by top fashion photographer Rankin.
In the exclusive interview, Johansson talks about her bombshell status, marriage and her perfect New York night.
Scarlett says: “I feel like I’ve been transitioning from young woman into womanhood for a very long time.
Now as I approach 30, with the last few years behind me, I feel like growing pains are behind me. It’s just nice to feel happy.”
“I think any woman who is curvy and wears a gown to an event is, like, super-sexualised. I mean, at the time I was 18, 19. I was young.
“I’ve always been curvy. It runs in the family. Throw on an evening frock and it’s like all of a sudden you have boobs and everyone is like: ‘bombshell!”
“Instantly it was: ‘The new Marilyn’.”
“I got married when I was young and it was incredibly romantic and I liked being married, actually. But it is different. It’s hard to put into words.”
“To me, being in a functioning relationship doesn’t mean you have to be married. “
“For me, most importantly, I look for a partner who is creative”
“ I like people that have a colourful way of looking at things, that are inspiring and like art, music and film.”
