Oh snap! Did she really think she was emailing with Obama? LOL! Now that's funny! Scarlett gets the truth. From UsWeekly...
Barack Obama has downplayed his "email relationship" with Scarlett Johansson - and says the actress doesn't even have his personal address.
Earlier this month, Johansson claimed to have a "personal dialogue" with Obama.
She told Politico: "You'd imagine that someone like the senator who is constantly traveling and constantly 'on' - how can he return these personal emails? But he does, and in his off-time I know he also calls people who have donated the minimum to thank them."
But Obama told reporters Tuesday that "she sent one email to [my assistant] Reggie [Love], who forwarded it to me.
"I [wrote] saying, 'Thank you Scarlett for doing what you do,' and suddenly we have this email relationship," he explained.
...Sounds like Scarlett got caught up in Obama euphoria. Just goes to show you, that you never know who is on the other side of an email. Be careful.

She did it for Macca - now can she do it for Madonna? Fiona Shackleton, the divorce lawyer who ensured that Sir Paul McCartney retained all but £24.3 million of his £825 million fortune, has been lined up by the pop star.
Madonna, whose fortune is estimated to be worth £300 million, is understood to be seeking legal advice on a possible divorce from her husband of seven years, the film director Guy Ritchie. Ms Shackleton, 52, is the lawyer of choice for the rich and famous after what was regarded as the spectacularly well-handled split of Sir Paul from Heather Mills, who was rumoured to be pushing for £80 million.
Dubbed the "steel magnolia" for her tough but pragmatic negotiation tactics, Ms Shackleton instructed the top divorce silk, Nicholas Mostyn, QC. They secured such a successful result that Ms Mills emptied a jug of water over Ms Shackleton's head after hearing the judge's ruling.
Ms Shackleton also acted for the Prince of Wales in his divorce.
Yesterday Madonna's spokesman refused to comment on the claims. But one lawyer told The Times that the word in legal circles was that Madonna had gone to Ms Shackleton after making an approach to another firm. Guy Ritchie is thought to have had dealings with a lesser-known Mayfair law firm, Forsters.
There has been speculation for some time over the marriage of Madonna, 49, and Ritchie, 39. It is thought that the couple did not have a prenuptial agreement, which means that the starting point for any settlement would be a 50-50 split.
.......Madonna...No Prenup...I find that hard to believe!!

American and Iraqi children suffering from the war will get much-needed support, thanks to $1 million the Jolie-Pitt Foundation is donating to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict.
"These educational support programs for children of conflict are the best way to help them heal," Angelina Jolie said.
The EPCC, which Jolie co-founded in 2007, has earmarked $500,000 for the Armed Service YMCA Operation Hero Program, which helps educate and emotionally support children of military personnel serving in Iraq. The money will bring 2,500 new children into the program.
The other $500,000 will go to groups dealing with Iraqi women and children struggling to learn - or simply survive. They include Women for Women International; The International Rescue Committee; and NineMillion.org, part of the United National High Commissioner for Refugees. In all, 5,700 Iraqi children and 300 women will benefit.
"We hope to encourage others to give to these great organizations," said Brad Pitt.
Jolie, a United Nations goodwill ambassador, is noted for her humanitarian work. In February, she went on her second trip to Iraq, for a State Department mission to research the displacement crisis. In May, she wrote an op-ed piece in The Washington Post calling for aid for Iraqi refugees.

John and Jen... getting thumbs up from their closet friends. From USWeekly...
Jennifer Aniston's BFF says she and John Mayer are still going strong.
"They're great!" David Arquette, 36, told Usmagazine.com at the Dodgers 50th Annual Hollywood Stars Game in L.A. on Saturday.
Aniston was spotted over the weekend with pals in London. Mayer, who has been touring in Europe, plays a show tonight in Birmingham, England.
Mayer, 30, and Aniston, 39, went to a barbecue at Arquette and Courteney Cox's house earlier this month. The foursome got together again at the Omni Peace event in L.A. (Aniston and Mayer's first public appearance) on June 12 to celebrate Cox and Arquette's anniversary.
"It was great," Arquette tells Us. But the actor remained mum past that on his famous friends.
"I tend not to talk about them [because] they're so much in the public eye," he adds.
One topic he couldn't help but touch on? Daughter Coco, 3.
"She's wonderful!" Arquette gushed.
...Here's hoping they make it through the summer. Heck, I hope they make it forever and forever...and ever. :)
