| Although she's been acting for over a decade, it wasn't until 2003 that Scarlett Johansson burst onto the scene with a star-making performance in Lost in Translation. Scarlett has spent the last several years appearing in a wide variety of films, including a historical drama, 2003’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, a science-fiction thriller, 2005’s The Island, and even a feature-length cartoon, lending her voice to 2004’ s The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie. Scarlett’s reputation for hooking up with some of the hottest men in Hollywood -- young (Josh Hartnett) and old (Benicio Del Toro) -- precedes her, and she’s made it clear on several occasions that she doesn’t entirely believe in the concept of monogamy. 2006 was an expectedly busy year for Scarlett, as the actress appeared in three films of varying success. Scoop reunited the actress with her Match Point director, Woody Allen, while The Black Dahlia found Scarlett acting opposite then-boyfriend Josh Hartnett. Scarlett also appeared in The Prestige and lent her voice to two episodes of Comedy Central’s Robot Chicken. True to her sassy and daring nature, Scarlett raised eyebrows in February when she appeared naked along with Keira Knightley on the cover of Vanity Fair; making it clear, once again, why she’s remained a fixture on this list for the last several years and why she skyrocketed from No. 21 to No. 1 in 2005. Scarlett was born on 22 November 1984 in New York City to Melanie Johansson (of Polish descent) and Karsten Johansson (of Danish descent). Scarlett showed a passion for acting at a young age and starred in many plays. She has a sister named Vanessa Johansson, a brother named Adrian, and a twin brother named Hunter Johansson born three minutes after her. She began her acting career in 1994 starring as "Laura Nelson" in North. In 1998, the acclaimed film The Horse Whisperer brought Johansson critical praise and worldwide recognition. Following the film's success, she starred in many other films including the critically acclaimed cult film Ghost World (2001) and then the hit Lost in Translation (2003) with Bill Murray in which she again stunned critics. Later on, she appeared in Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003). In 2003, she was nominated for two Golden Globes, one for drama (Girl with a Pearl Earring) and one for comedy (Lost in Translation). She dropped out of Mission: Impossible III (2006) due to scheduling conflicts. Her next film role was in The Island (2005) alongside Ewan McGregor which earned weak reviews from U.S. critics. After this, she appeared in Woody Allen's Match Point (2005) and was nominated again for a Golden Globe.
