Scarlett Johansson has slammed stars who thank God when they win an award.The stunning actress claims movie stars who mention God or Jesus in their acceptance speech are an embarrassment to the profession. She said: "Some people can be so goofy, especially the ones that say, 'I'd like to thank our Lord Jesus up above!' I'm like, 'For the love of God, keep your mouth shut. That's why the world is so f***ed up because God is focusing solely on your career.'" However, Scarlett admits she would probably make a fool of herself by crying if she ever won an Oscar. She revealed to Britain's B magazine: "If I won, I'd probably cry.I mean, it looks pretty overwhelming. And if you look around and see you mom crying, and your agent crying, well, you'd cry too."

First of all,
I don't agree with Scarlett's slam of God. I personally believe that the reason why this nation is in the crapper is because of our lack of reverance and mention of ... Read More

All i gotta say is on our currency "in god we trust" in our pledge "one nation under god" what we swear on before we get on the stand in court, the Bible. so which country wasn't founded on chritianity again?

i agree with iffy. rather than focus on slamming God acceptance speeches, go do something better with your life and stop being jealous.

I think she should thank God too for all she's got instead of telling people what they should not say

I've been annoyed and offended by these ridiculous "Praise to God" speeches for years.
And even though I personally am an... Read More

I believe in God, and I honor and respect His name. What makes anyone think that God cares for actors and all their greed and lust. God has nothing to do with actors, and they shouldn't mention His name.

Honestly I found what she said insulting people can thank God for anything especially if they think that God has been the person who helped them achieve whatever the have. It doesn't ne... Read More

I'm glad Scarlett slammed the "God" acceptance speeches (even though I, myself, believe in God). These religiously devout pricks need to wake up and do the decent thing: Keep thy religi... Read More

You people are ignorant. The word "God" was not added to the pledge OR the currency until the 20th century.
The original motto of the US was "E Pluribus Unum" (Latin: out of many, on... Read More
