Scarlett Johansson: I preferred kissing Penelope Cruz to Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Actress says she had less facial hair!

Scarlett Johansson prefers kissing Penelope Cruz

Scarlett Johansson has revealed that Jonathan Rhys Meyers had to take a break from filming to shave off his beard.

The actors were shooting an intimate scene in 2006 film Match Point when Scarlett complained about his stubble.

‘Kissing him wasn’t that bad,’ she says. ‘But he did have to stop and shave in the middle of a scene, even though he’d shaved that morning. The man has really got some beard on him.’

Scarlett, 23 – who married Ryan Reynolds, 32, last month – says she preferred smooching Penelope Cruz in new movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

‘Penelope had less facial hair, so it was certainly more pleasant,’ she tells the Daily Record.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona hits cinemas next year.
