Happy 27th Birthday, Scarlett Johansson!

Scarlett Johansson has been in the news recently for all the right reasons, at least according to millions of warm-blooded men: naked pictures of the actress hit the Internet in September.


But that hacking scandal is now behind the star, who can relax and celebrate a milestone today: Johansson turns 27!

Since splitting from husband Ryan Reynolds, Scarlett has been romantically linked to almost every single man in Hollywood, from Sean Penn to, most recently, Joseph Gordon-Levitt. She'll next appear alongside Matt Damon in We Bought a Zoo and, no, these two are not dating. The latter is happily married.

Scarlett Johansson appeal 'attractive woman' to strip n*ked on set of new film

Scarlett Johansson is looking for an "alluring woman" who she can strip naked in her new movie.


The sexy star has been filming scenes for sci-fi film Under The Skin around Scotland.

Now, producers have advertised for an actress to play a character whose clothes are removed by Scarlett's alien predator Laura in an opening scene of the flick.

Scots casting director Kathleen Crawford's web ad for the part of "Bridge Woman" - an alien trapped inside a human body - says: "We need to cast a woman with an uncanny ability to convey emotion through only her eyes. Extremely alluring woman, attractive, intriguing."

It adds: "This role requires nudity."

Meanwhile, Scarlett stunned punters by popping into Glasgow Mexican restaurant Pinata for a s15 takeaway of king prawns.

Boss Ella Coyle said: "Our customers couldn't believe it."

Hang Over star Bradley Cooper the Sexiest Man Alive

Bradley Cooper has been voted the 'Sexiest Man Alive' by People magazine this year.


The 36-year-old actor topped the list of 123 'super hot guys' that included George Clooney and Brad Pitt alongside comedy stars like Modern Family's 'Ty Burrell and Family Guy creator, Seth MacFarlane.

'I think it's really cool that a guy who doesn't look like a model can have this,' the Daily Mail quoted Cooper as telling People magazine.

'I think I'm a decent-looking guy. Sometimes I can look great, and other times I look horrifying,' he said.

As Ryan Gosling fans cry foul play in front of People's office, we look at this year's droolworthy hunk's back story and work.

Lady Gaga reveals all in her new book, “LADY GAGA x TERRY RICHARDSON”

Lady Gaga reveals all in her new book, “LADY GAGA x TERRY RICHARDSON” – shot by the famed photographer over the last year – and the singer also opened up about what it takes to land the Mama Monster herself.


“Talent and perseverance and pushing the boundaries of love and acceptance,” the 25-year-old music sensation told Access Hollywood guest correspondent Jill Martin.

Gaga, never afraid to raise an eyebrow or two, also shared another quality she looks for in a guy.

“I don’t know. I can’t really say. It ranges from a really big [expletive] to a degree at Harvard,” she continued. “Just about anything.”

The “You And I” singer also spoke about her hesitation to putting down roots.

“I’m not ready to buy a house. It feels like marriage or something. It’s like such a commitment. I don’t like it,” Gaga, who has been touring almost nonstop for the last two years, explained.

When not globetrotting, the Grammy winner stays with her family or at her best friend’s place.

“I do love being with my parents, but I also just really fear domestication. I just don’t have a home,” she continued. “I actually sleep [at] my best friend Bo’s, in her apartment a lot. She kicks her boyfriend onto the couch and it’s really funny. We stay up and watch movies.”

Gaga’s new book – which hit stores this week – gives fans unparalleled access to her life from the last year.

“This is me in my most completely vulnerable state. Terry was with me during breakups, during get-togethers, during party times, sad times, landmark moments in my career,” she explained. “When I wake up in the morning, going to sleep… he was there during these completely unadulterated, unmanufactured, completely authentic moments.”

Adding, “For those of you that ask me, ‘What do you look like in the morning?’ ‘What do you do when you get milk?’ ‘What do you look like at the grocery store?’ You’re going to get all of those answers in this book, because he doesn’t believe in farce.”

In addition to her new book, the singer will also appear on “A Very Gaga Thanksgiving,” which airs Thursday at 9:30 PM on ABC. Plus, catch more of Jill Martin’s interview with the chart-topping star on Access Hollywood tonight.

Twilight Saga Last Part Has A 'Global Feeling'

Director Bill Condon calls final 'Twilight' film 'epic,' while screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg promises it will be 'kick butt.'"Breaking Dawn - Part 1" has officially arrived in theaters, and you know what that means: Let the talk about "Part 2" begin!


MTV News' Josh Horowitz sat down with director Bill Condon and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg to discuss what Twi-hards can expect from the conclusion of "The Twilight Saga."

Condon hinted that there will be a significant jump in tone between "Part 1" and "Part 2," a film he described as "epic." "['Breaking Dawn - Part 1'] is a very, very emotional, romantic story in the first half that gets dark and has elements of a horror movie in it," he said, possibly referring to the infamous birth scene.

In "Part 2," Condon said the action will focus on the larger world of vampires, which comes into the conflict with the birth of Bella and Edward's daughter, Renesmee. "The second one: It is truly the meeting of the vampires from around the world, so it has a really kind of global feeling," he said.

Rosenberg promised one thing: action. "The journey of the second film is survival, and it is kick butt. There's going to be some action going on there," she said.

Both Condon and Rosenberg were hesitant to comment on how the second film will end. Condon said he knows how it ends, but wouldn't offer much else, saying only, "It's an ending."

Rosenberg, on the other hand, was more giving, and said the answer lies in what Stephenie Meyer originally wrote. "It's in the book, and it felt right," she said.

Twilight: Breaking Dawn Scores Fifth Biggest US Box Office Opening

The fourth vampire flick made a cool $139.5 million in its first weekend.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 has scored the fifth-biggest debut at the US box office, raking in a cool $139.5 million in its opening weekend.


Twihard fans raced to cinemas faster than Jacob Black running to try and stop Bella and Edward's wedding, giving Breaking Dawn - Part 1 a place in the record books.

The fourth instalment of the vampire flick collected $139.5 million in America - more than $30 million of which was from midnight showings early Friday - with it bagging an estimated $283.5 million worldwide.

Breaking Dawn - Part 1 now stands behind Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 ($169.2 million), The Dark Knight ($158.4 million), Spider-Man 3 ($151.1 million) and 2009's New Moon ($169.2 million).

Animated penguin movie Happy Feet 2 was Twilight's nearest rival, taking $22 million at the US box office, with last week's No.1, Immortals falling to third place.

The final movie in the Twilight Saga will hit cinemas next year.
