I think I’ve mentioned before that I am less than enamored of Scarlett Johannson. Especially after her boring-ass album of Tom Waites covers (leave the starlet-turned-chanteuse stuff to the people who can actually act and sing, ScarJo); not to mention the stories of her ridiculous behavior on the press tour for Vicky Cristina Barcelona (demanding a personal make-up artist and thousands of dollars of expensive cosmetics for every appearance, etc.). Normally I don’t give a damn about an artist’s private life (unless they’re a $cientologist, that’s the one single complete deal-breaker for me); but when it’s someone I already dislike, I collect stories of their misbehavior and commeupance with great schadenfreude and glee.
I was quite irked by ScarJo’s claim that she had some kind of personal email-based relationship with Barack Obama. So you can imagine my delight when Obama popped that bubble:
Obama was chatting with the guys on his campaign plane when he referred to his personal assistant, Reggie Love. “She sent one e-mail to Reggie, who forwarded it to me,” Obama said matter-of-factly.
“I write saying, ‘Thank you, Scarlett, for doing what you do.’ And suddenly we have this e-mail relationship.”
HA HA, BURN! (BTW, have I mentioned how much I <3 Reggie Love?)
You know, he’s really doing you a favor, ScarJo. You keep running your mouth about Obama, and you’re gonna wind up getting your weave snatched off your head by a pissed-off potential First Lady.
I mean damn, two tickets to the gun show! I know who my money’s gonna be on in a smackdown between those two.
