"I hope they make a video game of me. At least I wouldn't have any cellulite then"
About this Quote
The punchline lands because cellulite is such an unglamorous, stubbornly ordinary detail - the kind that almost every adult body has, and almost no red-carpet image will admit. By choosing that specific “flaw,” Johansson sidesteps the grand rhetoric of body politics and goes for something tactile, visual, and slightly taboo. It’s not a manifesto; it’s a wink that still stings.
The video-game reference matters, too. Games (and blockbuster cinema) have a long history of smoothing women into glossy, hyper-controlled surfaces. Her quip acknowledges how easily the entertainment machine turns a person into an asset: scanned, rendered, optimized. Coming from an actress whose roles often traffic in stylized sexuality and high-definition scrutiny, it reads as both self-protective humor and a quiet protest. If the culture wants her perfected, she’ll point out the cost of that perfection - and make you laugh while you notice it.
