Scarlett Play Jenna? Perish the Thought

Scarlett Johansson will never be a porn star. Or at least she won’t portray one on the silver screen. Reports that the 22-year-old starlet had signed on to play the role of Jenna Jameson, aka Jenna Massoli, “The Queen of Porn,” in a biopic based on Jameson’s 2004 autobiography, “How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale,” were actually rumors.

According to numerous reports, a representative for Johansson said that the actress “has never seen a script nor been approached about this project. She also has no interest in playing this role.” Many fans will surely be disappointed, but it seems that Woody Allen’s muse will stick with more demure roles for now.
