Scarlett Johansson's Stage Fright  1/3/06

Scarlett Johansson hates making red carpet appearances and only overcomes her stage fright by concentrating on the outfit she is wearing. 

The Lost in Translation beauty insists she is a private person and only appears outgoing in front of the press because she is keen to show off her latest figure-hugging dress. 

She tells the New York Daily News, "I don't really enjoy them. I actually have horrible stage fright when it comes to those things. "But I'm usually so excited about what I'm wearing, that's why I seem to bound up to the press line! It's purely a vanity thing. Normally I'm very private."
