Scarlett Johansson Writes Letter to the Huffington Post About Her Weightloss

Scarlett Johansson is shrinking and she doesn't like the rumors that she has lost her curves and is conforming to Hollywood's standard of beauty.

The petite beauty has fired back via the Huffington Post and says that losing 14 pounds is ridiculous and that would mean that she has lost 'both of her arms and a foot.' That was dumb, b*tch. At 5'3, 14 pounds really isn't that much weight unless you weigh barely anything to begin with.

ScarJo claims that she's thinner because of the movie she's working on and wanting to "look good in a latex catsuit." Fair enough. We'll all just have to wait and see if she gains weight when she's done with this, though, cause this letter reeks with denial.

While training for an upcoming film, I’ve come to this conclusion: chin ups are near impossible and lunges suck. There is no magic wand to wave over oneself to look good in a latex catsuit. Eating healthy and getting fit is about commitment, determination, consistency and the dedication to self-preservation.

While I’ve never been considered a gym rat, I have, in fact, worked up a sweat in the name of cardio before, and although I enjoy a grilled cheese as much as the next person, I combine the not-so-good foods I crave with an all-around balanced diet.

People come in all shapes and sizes and everyone has the capability to meet their maximum potential. Once filming is completed, I’ll no longer need to rehash the 50 ways to lift a dumbbell, but I’ll commit to working out at least 30 minutes a day and eating a balanced diet of fruit, vegetables and lean proteins.

Pull ups, crunches, lunges, squats, jumping jacks, planks, walking, jogging and push ups are all exercises that can be performed without fancy trainers or gym memberships.

I’ve realized through this process that no matter how busy my life may be, I feel better when I take a little time to focus on staying active. We can all pledge to have healthy bodies no matter how diverse our lifestyles may be. Since dedicating myself to getting into “superhero shape,” several articles regarding my weight have been brought to my attention.

Claims have been made that I’ve been on a strict workout routine regulated by co-stars, whipped into shape by trainers I’ve never met, eating sprouted grains I can’t pronounce and ultimately losing 14 pounds off my 5′3″ frame. Losing 14 pounds out of necessity in order to live a healthier life is a huge victory.

I’m a petite person to begin with, so the idea of my losing this amount of weight is utter lunacy. If I were to lose 14 pounds, I’d have to part with both arms. And a foot. I’m frustrated with the irresponsibility of tabloid media who sell the public ideas about what we should look like and how we should get there.

... The concept of ‘Stars Are Just Like Us!” makes us feel connected to lifestyles that can sometime seem out of this world. Yes, celebrities are just like us. They struggle with demons and overcome obstacles and have annoying habits and battle vices.

That said, I would be absolutely mortified to discover that some 15-year-old girl in Kansas City read one of these “articles” and decided she wasn’t going to eat for a couple of weeks so she too could “crash diet” and look like Scarlett Johansson.

The entire article is worth a read. ScarJo gets pretty bitchy towards the end of it. You can read it HERE.
