Less than a year after they wed in secret, Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds might already be headed for splitsville. According to Fox News
[The couple has been overheard arguing frequently]… the most heated occurred last week, as they were about to depart for San Diego’s Comic Con sci-fi convention [where Scarlett was to] discuss her new role as Black Widow in “Iron Man 2″ and Ryan [his lead role] in [Warner Brothers] “Green Lantern.” An insider [says] “they got in a huge fight just before they were going to Comic Con. It caused such a rift between them that Ryan refused to attend the conference and he told Scarlett she could go alone. She got so angry she threatened to take off her wedding band.”
The conference continued as normal, with a notably absent Ryan missing from the Warner Brothers panel. The company had planned on debuting major plans for the new superhero movie, and now [the] insider says Ryan has “angered the executives.”
I don’t know what to think here. Are they suggesting that living on different coasts for nine months of the year and pretending to be in love with someone else 17 hours a day for those nine months of year isn’t good for a fledgling marriage? Well, you know what they say — love is patient, love is kind, love does not steal your fucking thunder at a press junket. Amen.
Looking foxy as hell at Comic-Con:

Actress Scarlett Johansson is officially off the market, at least for the next, oh, year and a half, tops. According to Us Weekly
Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are now husband and wife, her rep has confirmed to Usmagazine.com.The wedding took place Saturday evening at a remote wilderness resort outside Vancouver. Guests included Scarlett’s mother, Melanie Sloan, and her brother, Adrian Johansson.
How rustic and quaint! A wilderness wedding. I get it. The becoming one with nature as they become one with each other and stuff. I would now like to offer my congratulations with a heartfelt toast. Hang on, what’s Canadian for “pretentious asswipes” again?

Scarlett Johansson showed off her new rock at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala last night, confirming her engagement to actor Ryan Reynolds. So when’s the big date, you ask? Well, there isn’t one. According to OK! Magazine
“Scarlett doesn’t want to get married anytime soon,” says an insider. “So expect it to be a long engagement.”
The Lost in Translation star’s reluctance to walk down the aisle had been a source of tension between the couple, so they came up with a compromise — “Get engaged now, and worry about the wedding down the road.”
So she doesn’t want to actually get married — she just has an album that conveniently drops in two weeks. What an Ashlee Simpson-style coincidence! Beside, all that boning Woody Allen to convince people she’s a credible actress probably wouldn’t sit too well with a husband. Husbands have serious hang-ups about what you do with your vagina. It’ll be all “I know the doctor said no sex after the c-section, but what about the butt?” this and “See, it’s a coupon for a free Brazilian bikini wax!” that. Trust me, that stuff starts to get old real quick.

Scarlett Johansson brought out the big guns this weekend for the marines stationed at Kuwait’s Camp Buehring. Unlike other celebrities who can’t even be bothered to give a buck to the homeless guy standing next to their car, Scarlett will be spending the next four days in the Gulf region as part of the USO tour. In other Scarlett news, rumor has it that she has gotten engaged to actor Ryan Reynolds. The Post Chronicle says
The ‘Lost in Translation’ actress, who has been dating Ryan for almost a year, is said to be smitten with the ‘Smokin’ Aces’ star and has accepted his marriage proposal. A source said: “We can expect an engagement announcement from Ryan and Scarlett any day now. They are very much in love and have decided to take the next step. Scarlett is thrilled!”
Whatever. I’m just impressed she’s braving the globe’s asshole to bring her special kind of talent (re: rhymes with “moobs”) to the marines stuck over there for the next year and a half. Sure, some of them have stared death in the face and lost limbs and been burned and disfigured beyond recognition in the name of American oil interests, but nothing lifts the blanket of impotent despair like chick with a big rack and no burqa or a mustache. In fact, I hear the only thing that marines like better than famous knockers is famous knockers with orders to Kaneohe Marine Corps Air Station Hawaii taped to them. Also acceptable: liquor and porn. Let’s all do our part for the boys overseas!
