Scarlett Johansson has confessed she was as surprised as everybody else by her shotgun wedding to Ryan Reynolds.
The 25-year-old actress married the 32-year-old star of The Proposal last September in a quiet ceremony in Canada.
Scarlett told Glamour magazine: “I never really thought about getting married – it just kind of happened – it seemed natural, the right thing to do – it was kind of a celebration of the time.”
She added: “I think the only difference is that I’m kind of making my own little family now, which is funny. It’s like a little bit of a tribe. You hope that a relationship makes you better, that you learn things about yourself.”
The Lost In Translation star, who has released two albums, is considering a stage venture, but suffers stage fright.
She revealed: “I would love to work on Broadway, but I don’t know that it would manifest itself in musical theatre…I have terrible stage fright that I’d have to get over. It came on when I was a teenager, and I think it somehow sticks with you.”
Scarlett also gets nervous at movie premieres, despite looking so glamorous.
She said: “I love to get ready for the red carpet, but being on it is very uncomfortable. I get flop sweats, dry mouth, heart palpitations, all-over panic! I did this movie with John Travolta, and every time I looked over at John on the red carpet, he looked so fabulous. So I said to him, ‘What do you do?’ And he said, ‘I go to Hawaii in my mind.'”
