A popular actress largely known for her mix of sexy and often critically acclaimed performances, Scarlett Johansson is also a vocalist. Born November 22, 1984, Johansson became interested in performing around age three and eventually studied acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute for Young People. After making her stage debut opposite Ethan Hawke in the off-Broadway production of +Sophistry, Johansson went on to appear in such films as #The Horse Whisperer (1998), #Ghost World (2001), and #Eight-Legged Freaks (2002). However, it was her starring roles in such films as #Lost in Translation and #The Girl in the Pearl Earring (both in 2003) that garnered her wide public recognition and critical buzz.
