Scarlett Johansson is an Obama supporter. Unlike most dopey celebrities, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and say she actually thinks about issues before she speaks. She reads The Economist, for example. I'm not trying to say that The Economist is a paragon of intelligent writing, but it's an interesting, well-written magazine that's not completely beholden to left-wing ideas.
So she e-mailed Obama once, and he replied. They have since had correspondence via e-mail (this can't make Michelle Obama very happy). Anyway, this "shocked" Johansson. Victorino Matus at The Weekly Standard has a list of other things that shock her:
Her personal trainer has time for hands-on demonstrations.
Her masseur cancels other appointments to prolong his massages free of charge.
Her cable installer shows up 30 minutes early and checks and double-checks the cable connections. In her bedroom.
Bartenders make her fancy cocktails on the house and they never skimp on the alcohol.
Air-conditioning repairman returns her call in minutes, offers same day service as well as dinner.
Auto mechanics offer to reupholster her carseats for free and keep the old ones for themselves.
Waiters are constantly bringing her free food and feeding her by hand because it’s “family-style.”
