Somebody’s getting too big for their boots…
Actress Scarlett Johansson was left sulking at home in NYC after her diva-like demands to attend Cannes were turned down by a film studio, while her Vicky Cristina Barcelona co-stars, Penelope Cruz and Rebecca Hall, soaked up the glitz and glamour of the Cannes Film Festival’s infamous red carpet.
Johansson was supposed to be in France promoting Woody Allen’s latest movie, which sees the 23-year-old making out with Spaniard Cruz (among others), but her outrageous demands saw her ditched by Warner Brothers Films and left at home.
Just what did the diva demand? According to the French branch of the film company, she demanded “her own exclusive make-up consultant at a cost of 5,000 Euros a day,” and “her own private hotel”, well away from where all the other stars were staying in the heart of Cannes.
