Well, here I go again...

.....with having crushes on celebrity babes, that is!

I started having a thing for Scarlett Johansson a few years back. I think the first movie I saw her in was Lost In Translation. I never saw the Horse Whisperer where she was a kid, but I did just watch Ghost World, where she was still kinda young. I've noticed that she goes back and forth from being a brunette, like in The Nanny Diaries, and being a blonde, like in He's Just Not That Into You. I really liked both of those movies, and I still want to see her in The Other Bolyn Girl and Iron Man 2. Of course, she married Ryan Reynolds and the two are said to be adopting a child soon. Good for them, I wish them well. She is a hot babe, and he is a hunk stud muffin. At least according to a female friend of mine. When we were talking about Scarlett and Ryan, I jokingly suggested that we both go to Hollywood and break them up so that we can be with the one we like. Ha, that sure is funny, I guess it is the fantasy of many people to be able to seduce a hot celebrity!

The one actress I have loved from afar for about 20 years now is Winona Ryder, and I just saw The Darwin Awards, one of her post-shoplifting incident movies. Believe it or not, she is actually a natural blonde, but she has had either black or brown hair for so long, it's easy to forget that fact. As for the length of her hair, I liked her fairly short dark hair in Reality Bites, and I also liked her really short dark hair in Girl, Interrupted. Also, she wore a blonde wig for Edward Scissorhands, the only time she was ever blonde in a movie that I know of. Some other movies she did I liked were Beetlejuice, Heathers, Mermaids, Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael, and Bram Stoker's Dracula. Some of her not-so-good movies were Alien Resurrection, Lost Souls, Mr. Deeds, Sex & Death 101, and A Scanner Darkly, because the animation used in that movie was absolutely terrible! However, I have yet to see Little Women, The Crucible, How To Make An American Quilt, The House Of The Spirits, and Autumn In New York.

As for my "thing" for her, I have liked her for a long time because she is an attractive petite brunette, unfortunately, she is a chain smoker. And then there's that incident at Saks Fifth Avenue back in 2001. She was removing security tags from items of clothing and the security cameras captured the whole thing. Also, she was in possession of non-prescription medication, but that might have had to do with the fact that she broke her arm filming a scene for Mr. Deeds earlier in the year. As far as I know, she paid a fine and served community service, as it was her first offense they did not punish her too harshly. I suppose that's for the best, as Bill Clinton said about Monica Lewinsky, she's basically a good girl.

Anyway, I sometimes dream about being able to meet Winona and go on a date with her. That would be great. She has dated many musicians and some fellow actors, and I guess we will never find out about why she and Johnny Depp broke up. Was it him or was it her? Oh well, I suppose it's irrelevant now. I do however, wonder if she will ever get married.

Anyway, I don't really care for the movies she has been doing since her arrest, I feel the earlier ones are much better. Also, I remembered, she will be 40 next year. Wow, time flies, that's for sure.

I guess that's it for now. Until next time...
