Scarlett Johansson Comments on Her Past Controversies: 'It Can Be Embarrassing'

Scarlett Johansson has been involved in a few controversies over the course of her career, and she was asked about them in a new interview.

The 36-year-old actress spoke with The Gentlewoman about how she has “made a career out of” her missteps.

She added that she is always “going to have opinions about things, because that’s just who I am.” She then said, “I mean, everyone has a hard time admitting when they’re wrong about stuff, and for all of that to come out publicly, it can be embarrassing.”

A few of the controversies Scarlett has faced in the past was claims of whitewashing for her role in Ghost in the Shell. She responded directly to the backlash surrounding her role in the movie.

Another controversy she faced includes criticism for taking on the role of a transgender individual in another film.
