  • Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson has said she has no problem with the 'sex symbol' tag and feels "comfortable" as a young liberal woman.
  • The 26-year-old actress, who recently ended her relationship with Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn, which began just months after she filed for divorce from her husband of two years Ryan Reynolds, is untroubled by her 'sex symbol' status but still seeks to maintain a private life, reported Femalefirst online.

London: Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson has said she has no problem with the 'sex symbol' tag and feels "comfortable" as a young liberal woman.

The blonde beauty also said that she is a "dork" who doesn't feel particularly "mature" as a person. "I don't feel mature. I always feel about the age I am. I know Robert Redford (her co-star from Horse Whisperer) described me as, '13 going on 30', but that's not how I felt at the time.

"I am still dorky. I watch cheesy TV with TV dinners and, at one point, could not stop watching Jerry Springer. I also like cheesy movies. Arnold Schwarzenegger, for example," she added.
