Actress Scarlett Johansson has angrily hit back at reports she’s the latest Hollywood starlet to go under the surgeon’s knife. The 23-year-old Lost In Translation star is threatening legal action over claims in an Us Weekly’s “outrageous and defamatory” plastic surgery allegations that she had cosmetic surgery on nose. The publication, which ran her picture with the cover line, ‘A List Nip/Tuck’, quotes her as saying: “I definitely believe in plastic surgery. I don’t want to be an old hag. There’s no fun in that.” But Scarlett has vigorously denied she’s had work, saying in a statement “I have always been straightforward with the press regarding my body image and I am very concerned that my fans (and perhaps even my employers) will feel mislead. Thus, I feel compelled to take immediate legal action against US Weekly.” Her spokesperson slammed the report as “outrageous,” adding “there simply is no truth to the story.The publication made a pathetic attempt to validate its story by using two cover photos of Scarlett that were taken years apart with obviously different make-up and lighting, and then relying on an “expert’s opinion” (based solely on looking at the two photos) on what “might” have been done. It wasn’t.”
