Scarlett Johansson in black Versace at ‘The Avengers’ premiere: pretty or boring?

Last night was the LA premiere of The Avengers, and before I write up all of the hot dudes that were there (Skarsgard, Downey, Hiddleston, Renner, et al), let’s just have a moment where we talk about “the girl” in the movie, Scarlett Johansson. Scar is playing Black Widow, obviously, and after releasing several trailers in which Black Widow was not allowed to speak, a Black Widow-centric clip of the film was finally released. And it was very jiggly. Now, Black Widow may or may not kick major ass in the film. But I kind of think Scarlett was just hired because without her, the whole thing would have just been a balls-out sausage party.

So, did Scarlett dress the part of “the T&A” for the premiere? Scarlett wore this Versace gown, and I swear she’s worn a similar dress in white at some point. I remember this silhouette on her. I’m not crazy about the dress, honestly. It’s not actively bad, but it doesn’t do much for Scarlett’s figure – beyond making her look really slender. I feel like she’s lost so much weight over the past year. I do love that she’s back to this dirty-blonde, though. It suits her more than any other hair color. And her makeup looks good here too.

    In the first picture what the hell is she doing?Trying to pee?? After all those red carpets she hasn’t learned how to pose properly? BTW I love the dress.

    • brin says:

      I know….why does she always pose like that…she looks so lame!

    • Aiobhan says:

      I actually like the dress as well. It is simple but elegant. The wonky neck line though throws me off. Her makeup and hair is perfection.

    • Eileen says:

      I was thinking the same thing-her feet are pointed inwards and her legs are spread….WTF?
      Otherwise she looks gorgeous and I generally am not a fan-she’s boring to me.

    • Bej says:

      Haha, exactly what I thought when I saw that pic. Wth? Why is she standing like that? Is she chafing?

      • itstrue says:

        I think she was just photographed mid-step.

      • Belle says:

        Agree with the mid-step photo theory… surprised people think she is actually posing. Looks kind of like she was walking, and just starting to turn in order to pose (hence the funky angle of her legs) when the photo was taken.

  2. Lilou says:

    Isn’t that the dress J. Aniston wore some time ago (but in black and white)? Anydoodle, it looks cute on her but too simple for a premiere…

  3. Eve says:

    That ring is horrendous.

  4. marie says:

    I think she looks good, like the shoes-but she’s standing kind of weird.. Was it a half-hearted attempt at the Funky Chicken?

  5. cupidityrox says:

    That ring is all kinds of awesome. I want!

  6. mary simon says:

    eeewww -she’s doing that twisted Barbie leg thing again!

  7. notpretentious says:

    I love that dress on her, and she does look great and really trim. I like that ring as well!

  8. LadyJane says:

    She looks amazing. Good on her. TINY waist.

  9. T.C. says:

    Pretty girl, bad dress.

  10. Franny says:

    She looks amazing! This is the Scarlett we all remember her as.

    Peplum is huge for spring, which is why many people think this is just the same dress everyone else has worn. I like this one a lot. I want those shoes.

    I just can’t get over how great she looks.

  11. maggie says:

    Thumbs down on the dress and the hairstyle. She could look so much better!

  12. msshuffleupagus says:

    THE WONKY FOOT IS BACK.

  13. imabrat says:

    She’s so beautiful, but personally I think that dress is very odd.

  14. ladybert62 says:

    (1) That dress makes her look fat (especially the arms)

    (2) That pose is ridiculous – stand up straight girl

    (3) That tattoo is awful – is that new – what did she get the horrible megan fox marilyn tattoo on her arm? Trashy.

  15. Zelda says:

    Am I the only person who thinks her face is meh?

  16. Jackson says:

    That dress is all wrong for her. Makes her shoulders and arms look big and chunky. It also looks at least one size too small. She just looks very awkward and uncomfortable to me.

  17. monette says:

    Thank, thank you Kaiser for that first picture.

  18. The Original Mia says:

    She looks good. I love that ring.

  19. mkM says:

    Penelope Cruz wore it in white, or?

  20. Jacqu says:

    Will Cobie Smulders be featured, because jeeze, I love her but I wish ScarJo, who’s one of the main stars of the film, wore something of that calibre.

  21. Maya says:

    I love her makeup – her skin looks gorgeous.

  22. lucy2 says:

    The top part of the dress is a little much on her, but I really like her hair and makeup. She looks good.

  23. BKiddo says:

    I kinda like the dress, but my attention goes immediately to the ring. Love it!

    And as someone mentioned above, that tattoo is just ridiculous.

  24. Alexis says:

    The strapless is not flattering on her soft arms and upper body. She is clearly skinny, but this type of strapless at least is not flattering. I think she’s sick of it, but emphasizing her hourglass figure is the way to go.

  25. Jenna says:

    Eh, it’s alright. I like the top. But that little flare there at the waist is what kills it for me.

  26. normades says:

    Sorry, but she is not aging well.

    Agree with other posters that said that the dress is super unflattering on her short frame. The neckline cuts her off at all the wrong places.

  27. foozy says:

    totally uninteresting zzzzzz

  28. Jordan says:

    The first pic looks like she started to walk away and was called back, someone snapped a pic when she was in motion…good lord people, do you really think she posed like that? Her makeup, especially that shade of pink lipstick, looks good. I don’t hate the dress but I don’t love it, it’s okay.

  29. Kim says:

    I think she looks very pretty. Love the hair and lighter makeup.

  30. Reece says:

    1st pic is weird. It’s giving her bra fat arms. In the others I like it. I don’t dislike it. Meh…
    This was the big Premiere I think her dress should’ve been more sparkly. Maybe that’s just a personality choice.

  31. Camille (The original) says:

    I like her makeup and her shoes, everything else- fug. I also really hate her tattoo.

  32. Ravensdaughter says:

    It’s almost like “anti-cleavage”-what an odd dress!

  33. lola lola says:

    Wow. That is one ugly dress. Talk about hiding your assets….
