Scarlett Johansson

is an American actress.
Her mother’s American, but
her father’s from Denmark. Her
birthday’s on the twenty-second
of November. She’s got two
brothers, Adrian and Hunter. She’s
got a sister, Vanessa, and a halfbrother, Christian. Hunter is her
twin. They aren’t identical. Scarlett
says they’re like Danny DeVito and
Arnold Schwarzenegger in the film
Twins! Hunter’s one metre ninety
centimetres tall, and Scarlett’s one
metre sixty-two centimetres tall!
When people see them, they don’t
believe that they’re related. They’re
very different. She’s short, he’s tall.
She’s got naturally red hair (but it’s
often blonde). He’s got dark hair.
He’s got glasses, and she hasn’t.
Some people think Hunter’s her
new boyfriend!
