The ladies of Vicky Cristina Barcelona had jaws fully dropped when they hit the red carpet last night for the premiere of the highly anticipated Woody Allen flick at the Mann Village Theatre on in Westwood, CA.
Penelope Cruz displayed sartorial sophistication in a midnight blue plunging gown. The criss cross front gown had shirred chiffon tied on the waist that cascaded down the left side. She accessorized with blue drop earrings, a matching blue ring on the left hand index finger, a thin bracelet on her right arm and a black clutch.
Meanwhile, costar Scarlett Johansson looked striking in an off shoulder scarlet flowing chiffon gown by Monique Lhullier, which had a gathered neckline and was cinched at the waist to accentuate her shape. She accessorized with silver peep-toe heels, multi pendant necklace and of course her engagement ring from fiancé Ryan Reynolds.
In theaters August 15, Vicky Cristina Barcelona casts Scarlett as an emotionally and sexually adventurous American woman in Barcelona who becomes romantically entangled with a charismatic painter (played by new Oscar winner Javier Bardem) and his tempestuous ex-wife (played by Penelope).

Scarlett Johansson goes pouty in the current issue of Italian Vanity Fair.
Meanwhile, the American starlet is making headlines in another European country — France — for ditching the premiere of Woody Allen’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona at Cannes because she demanded too high an appearance fee.
Execs at Warner Brothers were willing more than happy to flip the bill for her flight, hotel, limos, hair and makeup, and designer gowns. But that’s when little Miss Diva got demanding. Scarlett asked for a makeup artist that cost 5000 euros a day! Then she wanted to stay at a hotel 30 miles away from the center of all the action, instead of at the hotel every other actor was staying at.
They wouldn’t accommodate her, so Scar.Jo stayed home.

Looking more trannylicious than last night’s ANTM reject, bride-to-be Scarlett Johansson graces the June issue of Paste magazine.
Inside the pages, the 23-year-old actress chats about how she’s been influenced personally and professionally by her five “dads”: Woody Allen, Bill Murray, Tom Waits, Barack Obama and Bob Dylan.
On Bill: “It was difficult working on that film. First of all, I was 17, and I was going through my own shit—graduating from high school and figuring out what I wanted, what was important to me, finding my independence. I was in Tokyo, which was totally foreign to me, and I was working insane hours. It wasn’t like Bill and I had so much in common that we could have this great personal relationship. We were at totally different stages in our lives, and I don’t think he was necessarily so fascinated by what I was going through. But we were fortunate that we had a lot of chemistry between us.”
On Woody: “He’s very modern in his way of thinking and has a great enthusiasm, a hunger for what he does. I think part of that is nervousness about the passing of time, a sense that this life is not enough. He’s just so full of ideas, and it’s inspiring to see somebody who’s in the autumn of his life but hasn’t lost any of the passion for storytelling. We talk a lot about relationships, whether it’s people that are together intimately, or friends, whatever—how people are with one another. He’s fascinated by human nature, and so am I.”
On Tom: “At first it was like, ‘What this weird music that your dad listens to?’ But Tom Waits’ music somehow oddly appeals to a kid because records like Small Change have that circusy, carnival-act vibe. The songs are very cinematic. I think as a kid I was attracted to that in the same way I loved “Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite!”—one of my favorite Beatles songs. It really lets a kid’s imagination take flight.”
On Barrack: “It’s been so exciting to get out there and talk to kids—and I say ‘kids’ meaning my peers—about why I appreciate Barack. He’s confronting health-care issues that affect young people. You know, most of my friends don’t have insurance. They’re working as photo assistants and stuff like that. These kids on the campaign trail asking questions, they are so well-informed. They’re asking really specific policy questions. It impacts whether they decide to vote for Clinton or Obama, or decide to register as independent or support McCain. They have real concerns, and they want answers. I love that part of it. So that’s a whole other aspect of this life that’s been fun and inspiring.”
On Bob: “I’ve been fortunate enough to never be the biggest media sensation. I’ll do anything to avoid it. It’s so gross—that whole tabloid shit is disgusting and awful. And I feel bad because sometimes people don’t court it and they get it, and you don’t know why. People are interested in them. Maybe they’ve become America’s sweetheart at some time, and they have their personal life, but then people get hungry for that, too.
“If you have somebody waiting outside your house for 32 hours, it doesn’t matter how many days you’ve clocked in on the movie-star meter. You’re still a person living your life. I can understand how that must have been for Dylan, who’s such an icon. I’ve been fortunate enough to mostly come out unscathed.”
