Scarlett Johansson shunned 'blonde looks' due to boredom

London, March 4 (ANI): Actress Scarlett Johansson has revealed that she decided to shun her "blonde bombshell" looks out of boredom.

The actress, who appears in the guise of Marilyn Monroe as the "face" of the first-ever make-up collection by Dolce and Gabbana, launched this week at Milan Fashion Week, has got her hair dyed in a dark red colour.

"I was bored one day. It was raining. I was with a hairdresser friend and just decided to colour my hair. We experimented with a few shades until we got the right one. I like it," the Telegraph quoted her as telling as to when she decided to get her hair dyed.

Her brunette appearance has surprised people because she has always emphasized on blonde looks in the past.

"For a long time I've had really white-blonde hair. I'm naturally blonde - my dad's Danish - and I was playing up to it. I wanted to act out all those famous blonde icons - Lauren Bacall, Grace Kelly, Marilyn Monroe," she said. (ANI)
