The clues page says > [@](#): > > Favorite false rumor about yourself? > > That I only date men over thirty. What kind of a standard would that be? According to Scarlett Johansson’s Wikipedia page, she has said she’s not interested in guys under 30. ---

[QUOTE=ShibbOleth] I seem to recall on of the clues put her as older, but maybe it was intentionally misleading. I don’t really follow or care about these things, so I don’t much pay attention to them. [/QUOTE] Maybe it’s Uma. I think she’s prettier now than she was when she was first getting started in film. ---

How tall is Scarlett Johansson? I was under the impression she’s around 5’8" and that seems taller than the woman depicted in the photos who looks to be no more than 5’4" (especially in the previously mentioned bicycle shot). Judging from her answers to the questions and what we’ve seen of her in the photos, I keep thinking it’s Brittany Murphy but she’s not listed among the possible choices. Incidentally, one of the clues is that she’s appeared in a B/W movie. I don’t think Scarlett Johansson’s been in a B/W film. ---

Judging by the still photos of [Manny & Lo](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116985/), I think maybe she has. ---

[QUOTE=Raygun99] The Man Who Wasn’t There. [/QUOTE] I stand corrected. Now if Scarlett Johansson turns out to be shorter than I initially thought, I’d have agree that she’s the front-runner. ---

According to the ever reliable ( :rolleyes: ) IMDb, she’s 5’4". ---

[QUOTE=McNew] Here’s my analysis: Jennifer Aniston, Rebecca Romijn, Angelina Jolie, Reese Witherspoon- in addition to the other reasons mentioned, too A-list. Drew Barrymore, Monica Bellucci, Heather Graham, **Scarlett Johansson** , Nicole Kidman, Jessica Simpson, Renee Zellweger- wrong body type Keira Knightley, Kate Hudson, Jamie Pressley, Naomi Watts- I think their star is already rising, they don’t need this kind of exposure That leaves Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Kate Bosworth, Rachel McAdams, Molly Sims- (wasn’t one of the Jessicas last year’s Mystery Girl?) I don’t know anything about her and I’ve missed a couple months worth of Q&A, but my guess is Molly Sims. [/QUOTE] I obviously don’t know what the hell I’m talking about. I just looked at a bunch of Scarlett’s pictures on the IMDB, and it adds up. An earlier question was whether she’s ever appeared on _Entourage_- yep. She was asked which superhero she most identifies with- answer: SpongeBob SquarePants. According to IMDB, in 2004 she voiced a character in the _SBSP_ movie. She does, in fact, have a body like the mystery girl. For some reason I always thought she was more… Rubenesque. I change my vote to Scarlett. ---

[QUOTE=McNew] I change my vote to Scarlett. [/QUOTE] I’m not changing my vote, but upon re-assessing her height and curvaceousness, I agree she should be a possibility. ---
