Scarlet Johansson Hot Fuse Over Nickname; Black Widow Actress Thinks It's a Sign of 'Laziness' When Called 'ScarJo'

Although a lot of celebrities don't mind having nicknames, the hot Scarlet Johansson has zero tolerance for it.




In a recent interview with  Glamour  magazine, the "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" actress said she finds it insulting when her name is shortened to "ScarJo."




"I associate that name with, like, pop stars," Johansson told the publication. "It sounds tacky. It's lazy and flippant . . . There's something insulting about it."




Talking with  Glamour  wasn't the only time she admitted to having a hot fuse over the moniker "ScarJo."




In 2011, Johansson told  USA Today how much she loathed the nickname.




"It's a laziness," she said. "People can't actually say the whole name? It's just bizarre . . . So Cate Blanchett is not, like, 'CaBla'? Why is that? Why do I have to get stuck with [ScarJo]?"




The "ScarJo" alias isn't the only thing the Black Widow star wants to detach from her image. The 29-year-old is tired of being seen "in her early twenties for over a decade."




"That's a normal side effect of being a young actor," she said. "You're captured in a certain time of your life and it's hard for people to move past that."




In addition, Johansson opened up about her split from actor Ryan Reynolds.




"I think I know myself better. I feel I know now more of what I need in a relationship, what I want in a relationship. And I know I have more tools to communicate, not just with my partner but with myself," she said. "That's not necessarily any reflection of who I was married to or what was happening in my marriage, but really where I was in my life."




Now Johansson is happily engaged to, and expected her first child with French journalist Romain Dauriac.




The couple splits their time between New York and Paris, and Johansson says she enjoys the foreign way of living.




"I guess part of the wonderful thing about living in Paris is how people take their time with things. And I like to feel no pressure on the weekends in Paris. Sunday, most things are closed in Paris, and there's something wonderful about that."
