Scarlett Johansson Doesn’t ‘Slop Around’ in Sweats

Scarlett Johansson Honey Facial

After refusing to wear makeup in We Bought a Zoo, Scarlett Johnasson reveals that when she’s not portraying a character, she’s actually quite fond of putting on a face.

“I always like to put a little bit of makeup on,” she tells Style.com. “I’m not the kind of person that just slops around in sweatpants. I like to feel a little more together — you never know who you’re going to see out there!”

“My absolute must-have is a really rich and vibrant red lipstick,” she reveals of the look that has become synonymous with her red-carpet bombshell motif. “I always keep red lipstick in my bag because I never know when I might show up to an event and be completely underdressed. I feel like red lipstick is the cure-all for everything.”

Other things that make her feel beautiful include reverting to her natural hair color (“I’m naturally blonde so I feel most like myself when I’m blonde”) and a good, old-fashioned honey facial. Yup, a honey facial. “I use Manuka honey,” she reveals. “You just warm your face so that your pores are open (you can steam your face right after getting out of the shower), and then you just take a spoon and apply the honey directly to your face and leave it for 10 to 15 minutes.”

The result? “It really adds an amazing glow and your skin is so soft afterwards. It pulls out the impurities.”

Kristi on

Give her a few years. She’s still looking for a man and doesn’t want to give off a lazy image. I get this impression from her that she tries too hard to be an intellectual because of her looks.

Karie on

I saw Scarlett on Anderson Cooper the other day (promoting her lame @** movie) and she is cold has an iceberg. She was frowning and seemed VERY icy. Ryan Reynolds- you were lucky to get out of that marriage without any kids with her!

Carol on

I really do not like her…bad actress and not at all pretty….but those are my feelings….

Abbie on

I agree with Kristi, I think she tries to sound wise and mature, but really she is just a typical insecure girl. Don’t mind her has an actress, but I think she tries to hard.

ace11 on

She slept with Sean Penn

i mean enough said

nichole on

She looks better without makeup.

james on

I always thought she was way overrated.

Robin on

Nobody cares SCARJO! I know you like it when people call you SCARJO.

Kelsey on

Wow, must be nice. You’re so much better than all of us who ‘slop around in sweatpants’. Sorry after working 50+ hour workweeks where we don’t live the glamorous life in Gucci, limousines and champagne, we’d like to relax in comfortable clothes. Thanks for making me realize I should be ashamed, Miss Nobody.

raja on

That’s BS -I’ve seen plenty of photos of her dressed down. She’s someone who really isn’t much of anything and every so often she seems to feel the need to say something silly to get attention.

Jennifer on

Really? If Scarlett had any kind of talent we would not be reading about how she feels she is above wearing sweat pants.

Tiff on

I don’t think she is a good actress and I don’t think he looks are anything more than average…You don’t wear sweats, good for you, you’re shallow and insecure.

chalt on

She likes to slop around in c^m!!

Tammy on

I agree. I think sweats are sloppy.

Kim W on

Great comment Kelsey, I so agree with you. Nothing wrong with wearing some sweats!! We live in the real world…we dress up too sometimes but nothing wrong with comfy clothes!! I think she is overrated as an actress too like so many of them are!!

Kim on

Wow, such bitterness I’m reading today. Since I seriously doubt any of us know her, nobody can judge what she’s like in person. And good for her for not walking around like a slob. Neither do I. It doesn’t take anymore effort to put on some decent looking clothes than it does to grab yucky sweats. You go girl!

Stephen on

I’m wearing sweats as I type this and do not feel as if they are a handicap to me sitting about the house. What a silly girl.

Jilllouise on

I dont usually go out in public in sweats either, but I dont bash the people that do. Sometimes comfort is much more important than style.

Samantha on

Sorry, Scarlett, I happen to be wearing sweatpants right now, so I guess I’m not suitable to associate with your ilk. Somebody told me years ago that, from a distance, “rich and vibrant red lipstick” makes you look like somebody slashed you across your face. I stick with the peaches and taupes these days.

Bellywitch on

Wow!! You’re not your best or yourself unless you slop on makeup and dress up in expensive clothes? How insecure are you if you feel like you can’t be yourself and have to cover YOU up?

Shawna on

What a snob. Wait til you have children…oh wait, someone else will raise them. I am “slopping around in sweat pants” a lot these past few weeks because my kids have been passing a flu bug back and forth and I’m functioning on about 3 hrs sleep a night. But guess I should be dressing up when I go out. Oh wait, I’m not a stuck up snob.

Hmm on

Oh please Kim, you mean to tell us that you make an effort to dress in anything but sloppy sweats when you are ill too? Please… You’re judging as well so give the hoier than thou a rest.

I’m so tired of these self-righteous celebrities, flaunting their wealth at every single opportunity (until it’s time to do something charitable, of course!).

What’s her face saying “NO CROCS” earlier this week.

Turbo b*tch Kris Jenner wanting throw her 16-year-old a birthday party IN THE BAHAMAS.

And now Scarlett saying I’m SLOPPY because I wear sweat pants once in a while.

Makes me wonder why I even read stories about celebrities anymore.

maggie on

I’ve seen several pictures of her dressing sloppy. She is acting like she is so put together and high maintenance. I for one never find her pretty – she’s so average looking.

Juicy on

I completely agree with her. I’m a 35 year old mother, married for 12 years and I work full time (sometimes up to 55 hours per week) I don’t leave my house without being dressed in at least jeansand a tee (and not an oversized tee either), I’m not always in heels unless it’s for work. I wear flats, sometimes tennis shoes BUT i won’t go out in sweats. To me that screams you’ve let yourself go. It’ll take you 10 minutes for some lip gloss, jeans and a ponytail. You don’t need to be glammed up to look decent. But please don’t go out like you just rolled out of bed, it’s as bad as wearing pajamas in public. And you can hate on me all you want, It won’t change my mind….EVER :)

Juicy on

Oh and my children come first. I always get them ready before me. If that means i only get 5-10 minutes to get ready, I make it work.

Mabby on

I agree with Carol. She may be a nice person, but she is certainly no beauty. She certainly is not a good actress.

I really like Scar-Jo. Although, I wish she wouldn’t worry so much about being “made up” and focus more on how she is “naturally made.”

JAL on

My day is now complete ;0)

nacho mamma on

maybe she needs to slop around in sweat pants – it might make her get rid of that stick shoved up her ass. She just appears extremely uptight all the time! Maybe no make up and sweat pants might make her a little chill!

Kate on

All you people crack me up. It’s an individual decision to do what you want. If you want to get glammed up-go for it-if you want to wear sweat who the “eff” cares. personally-I don’t want or need to impress anyone because I”m confident with who I am. I wear jeans and hoodies with no makeup practically all the time. If you consider me a slob? I really could care less-it doesn’t show my masters degree, it doesn’t show my 2 beautiful children, it doesn’t show the 30 miles I run every week….

So stop talking down upon anyone.

Guest on

She won’t “slop” around in sweats, but she was seen in public with Madonna’s sloppy seconds!! Classy!!!

Jennifer on

I’d say a bag for your face would be appropriate attire when you go out!!!

Jill K on

While I love sweats and usually change into them as soon as I get home from work, I don’t wear them in public. It’s just something I’ve never done and the same thing with PJs. I never understood why some people would wear their Spongebob or CareBear pj pants out in public. I’m sure she wears sweats but probably just not in public. Right now I don’t have any kiddos to take care of so I may change my ways once I have someone else to take care of before myself :) But as of right now, it’s jeans for this girl if I’m leaving my house!

@ Kristi and Abbie – Wow. You thought this made her sound like an intellectual? Now I’m really frightened.

Nikki123 on

She’s not that hot.

Heidi on

she is not good looking and i don’t understand the fuss over her.

Mazy on

Dear Scarlett,
Your much-loved red lipstick actually looks really ridic. Please go for a more neutral, natural look. Oh, and the deer-in-the-headlights look isn’t flattering either; please stop it. Okay?Thanksbye.

Amy on

I think it depends on the “sweats.” Now the ones that are tight around the ankle, Ew. Around the house fine. Now if they are nice ones that flare out some at the bottom who cares? I have on a pair of Old Navy fleece pants and I don’t think they look bad. Geez around here you see people in pj pants at stores and in college classes. LOL.

josh on

All of you girls not saying she is attractive is funny. Let us guys judge…and the verdict is….
Yes she is really attractive with or without makeup. She’s not that bad of an actress either. My step mother in law always slops around in sweats and it is embarrassing. Throw some jeans on before you leave the house, period.

Skye on

What does she mean she never wears sweats and always wears some makeup and her fab red lipstick because you never know who you’re going to see? Is she that insecure that she feels like she always has to be “on” for her public image? That is kind of sad and pathetic.

Amanda K on

If I’m going to the gym or for a jog I wear sweats. I don’t care what people think. Honestly, do you think I’m going to run in jeans or slacks? At least I’m not wearing pjs in public like I see people often doing. Btw, Scarlett is so wooden as an actress I have yet to have actually make it through a whole movie with her in it.

christi on

i know right..she should be happy to have a scarjo type name..atleast someone was thinking of her..shes so blah boring and not pretty whatsoever..well no shes pretty but like a BAM wow i wanna hit that. Iam a girl and prob about as pretty as her.. i have alil more edge and when i think of girls id love to look like..she isnt one of them..like me she almost looks fat to me like she needs to be more toned like 10 or 20 pounds would give her a double chinbut yah idk i dont get it ..i have friends prettier and with more talents..its really who you know..luck..and she had acted as a kid so was already in the game.

elsa caceres on

i used to like her…not anymore…bragging about getting drunk in the WhiteHouse…that is not intelligent and her just being obnoxious…she is a great actress…she needs to grow up and become mature…she lost a great man…and she does not get it…one day she will be sorry

elsa caceres on

so what if she slept with Sean Penn…is he your buddy? he is a good actor and very involed with the future of the countries…he was too smart for her

LAURA on

I’m glad she’s so impressed with herself. She should start wearing sweats from time to time and get rid of her ridiculous red lipstick!!!!!

Leslee on

Well, many have seen her in her jogging/walking clothes and they aren’t terribly flattering and don’t reflect much effort. I don’t think someone has to go into Mariah Carey zone and carry a giant purse while “jogging” with a half a dozen shin snappers on leashes, but you get what I mean.

I think she is really a beautiful woman but looks much better in a more natural look. It’s ok not to want to schlep about looking less than presentable, I can forgive her. She is in the biz, looking good is important to keep you employed. Just don’t insult the rest of us that have the luxury of the schlep :)

gatekeeper on

With her fake bust implants she so fondly loves to show off– and her cheek implants, lip injections–what is there REAL ABOUT SCAR-JO?
SHE was so desperate she slept with GRANDPA-
SEAN PENN. SICK!!!

Kim on

She’d look good even if she did “slop” around in sweats. It’s good tho, that her self-esteem is above that! If I had a million bucks, I’d certainly want to look like a million, instead of around eleven bucks, too. People are taking her comments all wrong…lots of jealousy. Even her name sounds classy to me.

LAURA on

I’m not jealous at all. I’d like to have her bank account but I do fine all by myself. Just because she has money doesn’t make her better as a person and THAT’S the problem people have. She isn’t better so she can get over herself (and put on some sweats). I still think she looks ridiculous with her red lipstick!

Sherri on

Personally,there is nothing wrong with wearing sweats around the house.Some days it feels good to just stay in the pjs and be a little lazy.You have to allow yourself some moments like that.

Bets on

I am the exact same way. I’m not a celebrity or anything, but she’s right — you never know who you’re going to see out there. Granted I’m not sporting Manolos & the latest from Gucci, but I always like to look put-together when I leave the house, even if the outfit includes jeans & sneakers.

Mel House Rock on

Scarlett is lucky she has a job. Much of the USA is unemployed. Such a pretty face. Many men, would love to date her. Ryan was lucky to marry her. She doesn’t need sweats. Too bad Aaron Spelling isn’t with us! Scarlett needs to be on a tv show! A 90210 of the 20-teens! Mel House .. now on FOX. Where the rich & spoiled live! They live in MEL HOUSE!

Got Mel House?

Youth is slipping away from this gal. Not too long until middle age for her.

I agree with you Abbie

LN on

Tis the season to be jealous apparently…

Danielle on

Being with Sean Penn affected her character….I found her on the Anderson show ….a little sarcastic and bitter about everything…..chill out because your fifteen minutes are almost up….!

Alexandra on

I do not like her either, maybe she gives a wrong impression… but thanks for the red lipstick tip.

Jamie on

LoL you girls, jealous much? She is as beautiful as she is talented. She doesnt like to wear sweats, so what?

carla on

I HATE red lipstick.

babycakes on

I’ve been a fan for a long time, but find my admiration waning. She’s starting to get on my nerves. She’s a great actress, I think, (Girl With The Pearl Earring, the Other Boleyn Girl and of course, The Horse Whisperer)…but once Woody Allen claimed her as his ‘muse’, her head increase by about three sizes.
And I do NOT like Woody Allen.
Add the whole Sean Penn thing, and…ew. Just, ew.
