Scarlett Johansson has no desire to lose weight.

The 24-year-old actress - who admits toning up when she realised she had to wear a lycra catsuit for 'Iron Man 2' - is happy with the way she looks and has no intention of embarking on a strict diet and fitness regime to alter her appearance.

You have to work with what you've got

She said: "There was this rumour mill cranking out stories that I had lost 14lbs - I could never lose 14lbs.

"I can't look at somebody who is 6ft tall and 120lbs and say, I'm going to get that body. That's just never going to happen. You have to work with what you've got."

Despite being secure with her looks, Scarlett admits she is petrified of the red carpet.

She loves picking which dress to wear and having her hair and make-up professionally applied ahead of a public appearance, but still suffers from nerves when she makes her entrance.

She told America's Glamour magazine: "I have a tumultuous relationship with it because I love to get ready for the red carpet, but being on it is very uncomfortable. It's so freakish and weird. I get flop sweats, dry mouth, heart palpitations, all-over panic!

"I did this movie with John Travolta, and every time I looked over at John on the red carpet, he looked so fabulous. So I said to him, 'What do you do?' And he said, 'I go to Hawaii in my mind.' "
