Scarlett Johansson Slams Own Nickname

 Scarlett Johansson Slams Own Nickname

Scarlett Johansson would like you to use her whole name - and no nickname - please.

The 29-year-old "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" star opened up to Glamour magazine about her "ScarJo" moniker -- something she feels is "insulting."

"I associate that name with, like, pop stars. It sounds tacky. It's lazy and flippant," she told the mag's May 2014 issue.

"And there's something kind of violent about it. There's something insulting about it," she said of the name that the media is prone to using when talking about the actress.

Scarlett, who is expecting her first child with fiance Romain Dauriac, also opened up about her personal life after her divorce from Ryan Reynolds in 2010.

"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 explained. "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."

She doesn't need a baby bump to turn heads! Scarlett Johansson stunned on the red carpet at the Paris premiere of Captain America: The Winter Soldier in a vibrant cherry-colored Michael Kors pants suit on Monday, March 17.

Johansson paired the already eye-catching look with a bold purple smokey eye and a chic, side-swept up-do.
News broke on March 3 that the New York-born beauty, 29, was expecting her first child with fiancé Romain Dauriac later this year.

Since then, Johansson hit the Los Angeles premiere of the highly-anticipated sequel in a sexy lace-covered two skirt and top and was spotted at LAX over the weekend, covering up in an oversized peacoat.

But Johansson certainly isn't hiding in these statement red carpet looks, which don't attempt to disguise her curves or growing bump. And with the April 4 premiere date of the superhero film just around the corner, the proud future mom will have plenty of red carpets to rock in the next few weeks.
