At 27, Miss Johansson may seem quite a bit younger than the usual recipients of the Walk Of Fame stars, but she is actually a 20 year veteran of the industry, appearing in film and tv since she was a child.

When asked how this all came about Johansson said..

“I don't know, actually. I think you're nominated. There's a committee... and, I guess, they nominate you and then you receive a star, which is very exciting for me. I was totally thrilled, of course, because I feel very nostalgic about that kind of thing. It's a wonderful tradition and I felt like I finally made it. I really did! I was, like, ‘Wow! I've been in the industry for twenty years and I've worked since I was a kid.’ It felt like a big milestone.”
















A big week for Johansson then, who of course stars in Marvel's The Avengers which opens Stateside in a couple of days.

Hollywood walk of fame is nothing special, pretty much anyone and anyone can get one. Not saying she hash't been working in the industry long enough, but I think should only get one if win at least 2 oscars or something.

I think she was great in the Avengers. I read alot of bad comments about her from people who hasn't even seen the movie yet. She's a good actress.

I do like Scarlett, I don't think she's a bad actress.

I think there's a lot better actresses out there with a better body of work that probably deserve a star more.

Well she's definately hot enough, didnt know she's been in the industry for 20 years though, it does seem kinda suspect that she would get it 2 days before the Avengers release and Jeremy Renner being there an all.

Exploit much? Marvel/Disney/Paramount Conglomerate

I don't think the star are a matter of the work but your fame as the name would suggest. Tons of people know who she is even if she doesn't have noteworthy film roles.

ya sorry... but she's not that great of an actress. She's not deserving of this yet. She has yet to put on a a performance that blows me away to make me even begin to think that she is worthy of something like this.

Knightrider is right. Its not that hard to get a star. I remember seeing John Lithgow get a star and he humbly pointed out how so many of the people with stars are now totally forgotten.

Awwsome! I hear her ass will be receiving it's own star about two blocks down. It's a fine plot, right between Jack Nicholson and Cher..

for those who don't know:

"Each year, an average of 200 nominations are submitted to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Walk of Fame Selection Committee. Anyone, including fans, can nominate anyone active in the field of entertainment, as long as the nominee or his or her management is in agreement with the nomination (a letter of agreement from the nominated celebrity or representative must accompany the application). Nominees must have a minimum of five years' experience in the category for which they are nominated and a history of "charitable contributions". Posthumous nominees must have been deceased at least five years. At a meeting each June, the committee selects approximately 20 celebrities to receive stars on the Walk of Fame during the following year. One posthumous award is given each year as well. The nominations of those not selected are "rolled over" to the following year for reconsideration; those not selected two years in a row are dropped, and must be renominated to receive further consideration. Living recipients must agree to personally attend a presentation ceremony within five years of selection. A relative of deceased recipients must attend posthumous presentations. Presentation ceremonies are open to the public.

"The most common question received by Chamber personnel is, "Why doesn't _____________ have a star?" Numerous major entertainment figures and legendary show business acts are not included on the Walk of Fame, for a variety of reasons. Some, such as Julia Roberts and Clint Eastwood, have declined to participate; nominations cannot proceed without the nominee's consent. Others, such as George Clooney and John Denver, were nominated but would not agree to the mandatory personal appearance at the unveiling ceremony. Others have simply never been nominated, or do not have a nominator willing or able to pay the selection fee, or have less than the required five years' minimum involvement in their designated field. Others are merely victims of selection constraints and probability; only about 10% of nominees are selected each year.

"A fee (currently $30,000), payable at time of selection, is collected to pay for the creation and installation of the star, as well as general maintenance of the Walk of Fame. The fee is usually paid by the nominating organization, which may be a fan club, or a film studio, record company, broadcaster, or other sponsor involved with the prospective honoree."

She's the Black Widow! Of course she deserves her own star! It was obviously an early screening of Avengers that swayed the commitee. That flick is a real [frick]ing movie!

She's been in roughly 30 major productions since the age of 10. She's earned some recognition.
