Scarlett Johansson

Back on March 2nd, Scarlett Johansson auctioned herself off on eBay for a date with one lucky fan with all of the proceeds going to the Oxfam America charity. Now, the winner has been announced! Some British guy shelled out $40,100 to be in the good company of beautiful Scarlett! Us Magazine says:

Scarlett Johansson is no cheap date.

A man from the U.K. placed a winning eBay bid of $40,100 to join her at the L.A. premiere of He’s Just Not That Into You this June.

Proceeds go to charity Oxfam America.

The 10-day auction began March 2, with a starting bid of $1."

Wow, this guy must be one huge loser! 40 grand... ha! That would have gotten him about 4 or 5 "go-arounds" with one of Eliot Spitzer's call girls... and his mistress was pretty smokin' hot too! But no, this British guy is all about spending a ridiculous amount of money just to go out with a woman he knows willl shut him down from the goods! But then again, it is Scarlett Johansson... she's pretty unique, and it would be really nice to meet her and have a conversation with such an interesting celebrity. HAAAA! Yea right, for a second there it almost seemed like I had a soul... and you know that's just not how I operate!
