Scarlett Johansson, the actress known for her role in The Avengers, candidly revealed an awkward encounter where she accidentally exposed herself to a total stranger, leaving the star completely embarrassed and red-faced.
In a 2018 episode of Jimmy Kimmel's show, Scarlett Johansson disclosed an amusing incident involving an unexpected encounter with a stranger.
During the segment, she recounted a lighthearted and slightly embarrassing story about failing to lock the bathroom door on an airplane.
To start, Kimmel said, "This Avenger flashed a stranger in an airplane bathroom."
The stars' answers were mixed, with only Bautista correctly guessing Johansson.
"It was unintentional, though!" the actress said. "Obviously!"
"I was using the bathroom in the plane, as one does, and I guess I didn't lock the door. It happens occasionally. I don't know, I thought I did! I went to grab the toilet paper and my entire vagina was splayed out."
She said things got even more uncomfortable when the person opened the door and immediately recognized her.
"The guy opens the door, he looks down, and he's like, 'Uh…oh! Oh!' I was like, 'Close the f— door!"'
Matters got even worse when she then had to return to her seat.
"It was before the plane took off. I had to open the door and walk past the entire cabin of people that all just heard me scream," she said. "And then they were like, 'Oh, it was Scarlett who was screaming and it was her vagina!'"
During their appearance on Kimmel's show alongside fellow Avengers stars Dave Bautista, Danai Gurira, and Mark Ruffalo, the group engaged in a quiz testing their knowledge of each other.
Johansson's revelation sparked a lively reaction among the cast and audience, resulting in laughter and a touch of embarrassment for the actress.
Johansson further entertained listeners on the Armchair Expert podcast with another amusing story.
This tale featured a humorous incident with actor Joaquin Phoenix during the filming of "Her," where Phoenix's character forms a connection with a virtual assistant voiced by Johansson.
During a particularly risqué scene simulating phone sex, Scarlett let loose: "We tried to get through one take and he was losing it. He left the studio, he needed a break ..."
"You definitely don't want to hear what you sound like having an orgasm. You definitely don't want to hear what you sound like having a fake orgasm - ew!"
Discussing the on-set incident, Johansson characterized it as "gross" during her conversation about the experience. In her private life, she confronted rumors alleging an intimate encounter with actor Benicio del Toro in an elevator, a claim she emphatically denied earlier this year.
The rumored event supposedly took place in 2004 at the Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles.
Seventeen years after the initial circulation of the rumor, Johansson addressed and rejected these claims.
Speaking on a podcast, she said: "When I was younger it was more acceptable to write really nasty, slutty things about young actresses.
That was a story that followed me for a long time. That would be tough. It's a very short period, the logistics of that seem so unappealing to me."
