Scarlett Johansson has laughed off reports she is on a crash diet to keep up with slimmer Hollywood stars.

Johansson stunned fans in recent months after showing off a more streamlined figure, having previously maintained she was proud of her curves.

Her weight loss prompted tabloid speculation the 24-year-old had embarked upon a strict diet and fitness regime after fearing she would lose out on acting roles to thinner stars.

But Johansson is adamant her new figure is the result of shaping up in preparation for her role as Black Widow in the forthcoming Iron Man sequel.

Her spokesman tells WENN, "The press is making something out of nothing. She is simply getting into shape for a very demanding, physical role in
Iron Man 2."
