Natalie Portman Lays a Big Ol’ Kiss on Scarlett Johansson

It sounds really hot. Maybe it was possibly hot in real life and photos just don’t do the moment justice. But, the shots out of Natalie Portman smacking lips with Scarlett Johansson at the premiere of their movie, “The Other Boleyn Girl,” are a little disappointing to me. It looks like an awkward nervous 13-year-old kiss. Natalie looks like she is trying too hard to look hot for the cameras, and Scarlett looks all “Tee-hee, I’m pulling a Paris,” which I bet leads Natalie to share a nice smooch with Scarlett’s teeth.

The co-stars have become quite close friends over the past year, and Natalie confessed to W magazine that she is worried she comes off as boring. Perhaps this act was a way for Natalie to show everyone that she can be spontaneous and fun, or maybe Scarlett just wanted to make boyfriend Ryan Reynolds feel a tinge of jealousy. Whatever the motive — I’d say mission accomplished!
