She was like that with William Reid, too

Actor-turned-person-who-put-out-a-record Scarlett Johansson has been accused of - you might want to sit down for this - sending an email to Barack Obama. And, also: getting an email in return.

The rightwards-leaning US media has reacted like Victorian women discovering the vicar has allowed a fallen woman to sleep in the Rectory, and Scarlett isn't happy:

"It seemed to me to be like a product of extreme sexism, and I kept thinking to myself, 'God, if this was just, like, Kal Penn or George Clooney or any of the other (Obama) surrogates or supporters ... there wouldn't be (any) question about it. Nobody would even talk about it," she said.

Nestle's George Clooney, of course, wouldn't send an email. He'd be linked to Obama on Facebook.
