Iron Man 2 is sounding like it almost might be better than the first!! the Black Widow is absolutly awesome and ScarJo playing her will be full of WIN! from E!online news:

Scarlett Johansson is joining the superhero set.

Her rep confirms that the actress has signed on to play Black Widow in the Iron Man sequel opposite Robert Downey Jr. The deal was signed this afternoon.

"Scarlett is thrilled to be a part of Iron Man," her rep, Marcel Pariseau, tells me.

*oh yeah, if anyone cares:*

The Wrestler's comeback kid, Mickey Rourke, has finally sealed a deal to play villain Whiplash, according to Variety.

*I AM STOKED!*

Falling Down

It's ScarJo's released song! Wanna hear? I almost wanted to gouge out my ears with a spork. She had Tom waits and David Bowie try to polish her turd but I don't think that helped.

Hear for yourself.

Here's one review from handbag gossip:

Falling Down, a new track from Scarlett Johansson, has appeared online and been roundly panned by critics. The track is from Scarlett’s upcoming album Anywhere I Lay My Head, a record of Tom Waits covers, and features David Bowie on backing vocals.

*Really, ScarJo? Just a cover of somebodyelse's songs? Really? An entire fucking album of it?*

The on line response hasn’t been good. “Warning! There's a rumour going around that some people have heard this version of the song and never smiled again,” say gossip site Holy Moly. While top gossip blog What Would Tyler Durden Do was less kind. “Scarlett Johansson has set the new bar for awfulness with her Tom Waits cover of Falling Down. The only way this experience could be any worse is if this monitor grew arms and started stabbing you.”
