Photographing fans is not something Scarlett Johansson is interested in doing.


Johansson seems to be living in the clouds, as seen by his apparent dislike of taking pictures of people in public.
Many people find it quite offensive. Of course, that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate that people are delighted to see me or are admirers. However, I always tell folks that I’m not working. [That implies] I don’t want to be recognized as being with you at this time and location. When describing her stance on pictures, the famous actress told InStyle, “I’m doing my own thing.”
“I don’t want to be identified as being in this time and place with you.”
What a line.
Is she an actress or a hippy at Woodstock floating through the air? I’m not sure I’ve ever heard a more unnecessary excuse than not wanting “to be identified” in a certain “time and place.”
A simple “no thanks” would have sufficed. Instead, she had to cook up a comically stupid excuse. Does she think the CIA is hunting her? Does she think she’s so important that she can’t let people know where she is with a stranger?
It’s a wild reason, and it doesn’t make her look like a down-to-earth person. She comes off as a bit of a jerk. It’s a photo. Either take it or don’t. This isn’t complex.
She’s an actress. Not a war hero. She reads lines from a script for a living. It’s not an important or overly impressive job in the grand scheme of things.
