Scarlett Johansson chopped off her hair: adorable or budget Meg Ryan?

wenn2937595

As you may have seen on the Mark Ruffalo post, Scarlett Johansson made an appearance at Comic-Con to promote her upcoming role in The Avengers, which is going to be the greatest hits of several Marvel comic book heroes/villains. ScarJo has already been tapped to reprise her role as Black Widow, so she showed up for the photo call. She sported noticeably shorter hair:

It is cute, although it looks like she could use some conditioner, or maybe a hot-oil treatment. But I would love it if my hair had as much natural curl/wave to it as ScarJo’s. Did she used to have her own hair though? Or did she just have a weave taken out and then she added a new haircut on top of it? You know what this reminds me of? That short, choppy little haircut that Meg Ryan used to sport a decade ago. It’s totally Meg Ryan-esque. Very cute. The bustier-and-suit combo is totally hot too – Blake Lively should take note: this is how you show your figure without looking like a harem-panted hooker.

    Wow I hope she didnt pay alot of money to have that done.

  2. J says:

    What happened?

  3. gracie says:

    It’s ok but I think she needs it evened out a bit. I don’t like those bedhead haircuts where it’s supposed to look mussed all the time. They always look sloppy to me.

    She does have an amazing body, I must say.

  4. bite me says:

    the new haircut works for her…she needs to her work on her body some more

  5. Reason says:

    I like it. I’m so tired of long hair on starlets.

  6. snowball says:

    I’d demand a refund and then get creative with headbands for a month or two.

    Someone’s hairdresser hates them.

    (and their stylist too)

  7. onyx says:

    not a good haircut!

  8. LOVE ANGELINA says:

    Adorable!!!!! That girl is just to cute.

  9. Bodhi says:

    I love it!!

  10. Green Is Good says:

    She ought to try running a comb through her hair.

  11. Tazina says:

    I always thought Meg Ryan had really cute hair. This is nothing like that. She must have done it herself. Surely she didn’t pay someone to make her look like this.

  12. Raven says:

    That looks really awful. Looking like you chopped your hair off in your bathroom without benefit of mirror is not appealing.

  13. jen says:

    It reminds me of Jake’s girlfriend in Sixteen Candles after she gets her hair stuck in the door!

  14. ViktoryGin says:

    I like the length on her and can see what she was trying to go for, but it just looks sloppy in its current state.

    I could totally see her pulling off a slanted bob.

  15. Tuatara says:

    Looks like it has been chewed off.

  16. Bam Bam says:

    The rest of us would be riduculed for such horrible look if we were to try this nonsense. Good looking or not, the styling is bad, can’t tell about the cut yet.

  17. meme says:

    She’s beautiful but I’m not crazy about the hair.

  18. a says:

    i cut my hair once and it looked like that. some conditioner may help.

  19. Rosi says:

    Meg Ryan’s version was much better and worked better on her face than ScarJo’s.

  20. McMe says:

    I like it. It’s different. I’m sure she will have extensions in a few days though.
    @Bite Me….what’s wrong with her body? She’s back to her natural size and she looks amazing!

  21. texasmom says:

    I think the length is ok, but the dry, bed-head look isn’t so good.

    But isn’t MEG RYAN the budget Meg Ryan?

  22. excuse me says:

    So this is how it looks when a celebrity gets a bad haircut. She should get her money back.

  23. LOLyuck says:

    It looks like she cut it herself in the dark…. and then she just jumped up out of bed and threw on her clothes and headed out. What happened to the days when starlets were glamorous. That is a bad hair day X 10…..

  24. sapphire says:

    Meh on the hair, maybe she just needs to work with it a few days. The body is awsome!

  25. danceprancer says:

    OMG what the hell was she thinking??!!This looks horrible on her!! Hey I wonder if her hubby did it to get even with her for kissing Liev FIRST at the Tonys and also for that sorry “my canadian whom I live with” comment?Also the night of her win,she went out and partied until 4AM w/several celebs who also won Tonys….hmmmm… the source didn’t mention Ryan going… wonder if he was even invited?Anyway, I heard Ryan was plenty mad at Scarlett the night of the Tonys,and SHE accused him of ruining her special night….

  26. fizXgirl314 says:

    that hair is terrible… but I’m glad she’s back to being curvy again… I like to see people I can relate to in the media…

  27. Lisa S. says:

    I think SJ has an amazing body, but that’s about where my admiration for her looks end. And Gwyneth Paltrow blew her away acting wise in “Iron Man 2”.

  28. Fae says:

    I feel awful for saying it, but from the neck up she’s one of the oddest looking people I’ve ever seen. Great body though, she looks fit without taking away from that feminine softness.

  29. Angelina says:

    I think she’s adorable.

  30. jamie says:

    i think it looks like crap!

  31. RobN says:

    Lots of not very nice comments directed at somebody who clearly has been the victim of some sort of weed-whacker accident.

  32. Ricci says:

    @ Reason
    because your hair wont grow?

    Cute but messy like.. maybe if she deep conditioned her hair, it would look improved?

  33. Mairead says:

    LOL!@ RobN’s comment. So true.

    Great length and the long graduated bob. with layers, should look good on her.

    But the styling on this mop is friggin’ manky.

    Either work with the wave (my recommendation) or straighten the basted thing. this looks like she had it in ponytails whilst going through a wind-tunnel and pulled them out in the last second.

  34. Maritza says:

    Meg Ryan looks good with that kind of haircut but Scarlet does not!

  35. Leek says:

    No.

  36. Cory says:

    She doesn’t have a good body. She’s dumpy looking and her face lost its character with what looks like serial plastic surgery. Looks like her nose will soon just be nostrils. All these actresses blend together and look alike, maybe they all go to the same plastic surgeon

  37. Pleister says:

    I agree that the shorter haircut looks good on her, but not the way it’s done. It looks like someone attacked her hair out of nowhere with scissors.
    I also agree that her body looks great.

  38. Kat says:

    Love her outfit. Totally cute. Hair needs a little more styling (don’t get the “purposely messy” look) but it has potential.

  39. Fiona says:

    A total mess!!!

  40. Mrs.Rut says:

    It kind of looks like she is doing one of those “fake” cuts. There is a way you can pin your hair up underneath and make it look like you got your hair cut when you really didn’t. I think that’s what she tried to pull off..TRIED!

  41. padiddle says:

    so glad she looks like she put some of the weight back on. She has amazing curves!

  42. GatsbyGal says:

    Short hair looks cute on her, but it looks like she cut it herself, washed it, fell asleep on it, rolled out of bed, then walked on stage.

  43. Schozzle says:

    God how does she keep getting work? Her Black Widow was the most forgettable part of a forgettable movie.

  44. sarah says:

    If she could run a brush through it, it would probably be cute

  45. Kazoo81 says:

    i like it, but i think she’s beautiful regardless of how her hair is.

  46. Jeri says:

    Blake Lively wouldn’t get any press if she quit dressing like a ho.

  47. original kate says:

    her hair looks really damaged…maybe she needs some hot oil treatments?

  48. bizzy says:

    she looks like she took the kitchen shears to it in the bathroom immediately before she came out on stage. which, on scarjo, is just too darling for words. love it.

  49. Susan says:

    are you sure that’s not a fake out? It looks like maybe her hair is pulled back and her shortest layers are out

  50. gabs says:

    who cares about the hair?

    She was an awful Black Widow. Ughhh

  51. Sharonkings says:

    LAWLS!
    Her hair stylist must have missed her flight so she had to go to supercuts.

  52. aenflex says:

    Not a good look for her fat face. Normally I like her look but she needs longer hair to balance herself

  53. Donna Wingfield says:

    Something seems “off” about her onscreen presence to me. Maybe it’s the odd face that someone mentioned. I don’t think she’s attractive, and I don’t think she’s a good actress.

  54. Fluffy Kitten Tail says:

    That is really sweet that she went to the Cosmetology School for the Blind to get her hair cut.

  55. oduroyal says:

    She’s still unbelievably hot

  56. super8 says:

    I’ve seen dogs with better hair cuts!

    Did she offend the stylist???

  57. Mistral says:

    It looks kind of flat on top and then curly on the bottom… Strange… She’s adorable, though.

    Speaking of Meg… Poor Meg…why did she have to mess up her adorable, gorgeous self with that horrible plastic surgery?

  58. Dhavy says:

    Sometimes after a new haircut your hair doesn’t tame the way you want it right away. This is probably what happened to her, especially if she did it herself. I’m sure it would look better but it’s not that bad, she’s young so it looks fresh. She has nice curves, better than that Blake-Fake girl or Olivia Wilde’s skeleton frame.

  59. Shania Twegano says:

    Meg Ryan WISHES

  60. bagladey says:

    It’s not really a radical change. Maybe she wants a change , or maybe she was drunk, but it looks like she did it herself. When a professional cleans it up it’ll be fine, and cute.

  61. Marianne says:

    It looks a bit choppy. I mean the second picture, doesnt look so bad, but it doesn’t look really outstanding. Maybe it would look nicer straight. Who knows. Right now, I’ll say I don’t like it, but its not horrible.

  62. Camille says:

    Holy crap that hair style looks bad. Terrible hair cut and her hair looks in really bad condition as well. I also hate her outfit.

  63. TeeTee says:

    it looks like she removed her weave, she didn’t cut anything as a matter of fact her ends needs to be trimmed.

    I’m sure she’ll be fixed up soon.

  64. JGo says:

    Looks like my dog chewed off her hair.

  65. California Surfer says:

    Grandma and I would totally sue the ass off our hairdresser if either of us was given a cut like this.

  66. grrrlgrace says:

    Looks like ScarJo had a coupon for SUPERCUTS!!!!

  67. Miss Thang says:

    She looks like someone ripped out her pony tail. It looks awful and I hate it.

  68. LolaBella says:

    She looks beautiful and I love her D&G corset.

    Maybe she is in between roles and decided to give her hair a rest from the weaves etc. The haircut is kinda edgy, I like it.

    LOL@ ‘harem-panted hooker.’ re: Boobs Legsly

  69. sabine says:

    She looks very cute

  70. lucy2 says:

    Shorter hair is cute on her, but this particular look is a little too messy and choppy.

  71. Bodhi says:

    It looks like she either chopped a bunch off and/or had extensions taken out, had the new cut styles & then slept on it.

    It looks just like my hair after I spend a bunch of money to have it hacked, styled, & highlighted & sleep on it for a few days

  72. jules says:

    totally…unfinished.

  73. purelife says:

    love the body, love the face and i love the hair. its just hairstyle for that event… geee……….. its better than braid.

  74. insidescoop says:

    like the short hair, not the style. Trying to make it look like crap, makes it look like crap – new stylist please!

  75. mohsen says:

    i love she and her works. evrything as she does. kissssssssssssssssssss!!!!

  76. mohsen says:

    i love she as crazyman.

  77. serena says:

    Yeah it’s meg ryanesque. But she’s cute whatever she puts on.
    Anyway I loved her in Iron Man2 so I’m looking forward to see her in this upcoming movie, in a hero/villain character.

  78. Johnthing says:

    It’s ugly. Is she wearing a hairshirt as well?

  79. SammyHammy says:

    Did she do it herself? While drunk? Using rusty garden shears?

    That’s sure what it looks like.

  80. danceprancer says:

    I’m sorry but Blake Lively,Natalie Portman,Anne Hathaway and Leighton Meester are all MUCH prettier than Scarlett Johansson! I STILL say Ryan chopped off Scarlett’s hair to get even w/her for that “my Canadian whom I live with” speech…
    (Hello! they are friggin’MARRIED for Heavens sake NOT just living together!)AND for kissing Liev FIRST!

  81. Bigfan says:

    Enough about the hair – how about the hotness of Robert Downey Jr in the sunglasses?

  82. NicoleAM says:

    i often hate the way she’s styled. Her hair and make-out rarely look that great, which is confusing for such an attractive chick.

  83. GIA says:

    I know this article is a little old but I had to find a place to vent about Scarlett Johanssens’s hair-do….YUCK. It’s now Feb/2011 at the Oscars and she’s presenting and I can’t believe how awful her hair looks. No doubt she’ll get lots of boo’s for trying to match that “look” with her otherwise pretty dress. I mean it doesn’t even look like she bothered to brush it. IT’s not a good cut to begin with and appears to have been spritzed saliva. Are those suppose to be WAVES or what?
    Whoever is doing her hair ~ and whomever is her stylist/handler…is ripping her off. Talk about ruining a good thing – and suck the ‘pretty’ off of a girl and you’ve got just blah going on. She needs to go more caramel blonde w/copper gold hi-lights, lengthen her hair to her more natural state where its slightly wavey and use matting face powder to get rid of the dew factor that really looks more greasy than anything. Other than that, keep her eyes defined since they are small but not put too much “dark color” around them. She looks best violet-red colored lips and rosey cheeks. Viola!
