Here are some new photos of Scarlett Johansson, fresh from her split with Sean Penn. Honestly, though, I’m kind of thinking that the split happened before the Cannes Film Festival, which means that Scarlett has been single for nearly a month. Which means she probably already has another dude lined up, in my opinion. Anyway, these photos are from last night’s Guys Choice Awards, which… won’t air for a while, I think. You might remember that Jennifer Aniston was chosen as “The Decade of Hotness” Award (and she looked super drunk at the event too). Scarlett chose red hair for the event (because she’s currently working on The Avengers), and this totally dated-looking Valentino. You know what this dress reminds me of? Julia Roberts’ “fancy dress” in the classic film Mystic Pizza. Beyond the dress, I kind of think Scar looks like total crap. She’s obviously been training hard for The Avengers, and she’s lost a lot of weight really fast, and it’s made her look kind of drawn and tired. The red hair doesn’t help either – it doesn’t really suit her, in my opinion.

And as it turns out, Sean Penn was also at last night’s Guys Choice Awards, but most people claim that ScarJo and Sean carefully avoided each other:

Newly single stars Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson avoided a face-to-face reunion on Saturday (04Jun11) as the former lovers both attended the Spike Guys’ Choice Awards in Los Angeles.

The actors were said to have enjoyed a brief romance before news of the break-up emerged earlier this week (03Jun11).

But there was no awkward meet-up at the glitzy California bash – Johansson walked the red carpet, while Penn arrived late to accept an award from Robert De Niro as his 1982 movie Fast Times At Ridgemont High was inducted into the Guy Movie Hall of Fame.
Johansson opted not to talk about her love life to reporters and instead turned the focus onto her latest movie project.

The actress looked sensational in a black and white Valentino gown as she arrived at the Sony Studios in Culver City alongside Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis, Jennifer Aniston and Cameron Diaz.

Scarlett was keen to impart an insight from the set of The Avengers, a canny move considering the moribund status of her movie career versus her fervid love life of late.
She told Just Jared: ‘I just flew in from New Mexico, where I’ve been shooting The Avengers. A bunch of the cast is here tonight but I’m here to support the troops. Chris Evans and I are presenting.’

‘We’re right in the middle of scenes and figuring a lot of stuff out. I’ve been training a lot and doing all sorts of exercises.’

So far there hasn’t been much speculation about Scar and Sean’s breakup, I guess because no one really thought they would last anyway. I would love to know what exactly went down, especially considering that Scarlett had moved in with Sean so quickly. E! news had one of the few post-split analysis pieces – you can read it here. They basically say that Sean’s family (including his mom) urged him to drop Scarlett as their relationship became more and more tabloid. They also say Sean probably still has feelings for Robin Wright, and Robin and her boyfriend just split up too, perhaps meaning that Robin and Sean might try to reconcile again.

By the way, Justin Timberlake was at the Guys Choice show. You know he and Scarlett had a thing way back, and I kind of think he’d like to try it again.
