Scarlett Johansson Is Gonna Sue

Scarlett Johansson is threatening legal action against US Weekly magazine over a cover story it ran claiming she has had plastic surgery on her nose.
Scarlett’s crew released the following statement to rival OK magazine:
“Us Weekly’s [new] cover story regarding Scarlett Johansson and its clear implication that she has had plastic or cosmetic surgery on her nose is an outrageous and defamatory fabrication lacking any conceivable basis or proof, despite vehement denials by Ms. Johansson prior to publication. Not surprisingly, US magazine cannot provide the dates when she supposedly had this surgery, who performed the surgery, or what was supposedly done  all because there simply is no truth to the story. The publication made a pathetic attempt to validate its story by using two cover photos of Scarlett that were taken years apart with obviously different make-up and lighting, and then relying on an “expert’s opinion†(based solely on looking at the two photos) on what “might†have been done. It wasn’t.”
Johansson says:
“I have always been straightforward with the press regarding her body image and she is very concerned that her fans (and perhaps even my employers) will feel mislead. Thus, I feels compelled to take immediate legal action against Us Weekly.â€Â
Not happy Jan.
