Vicky Christina Barcelona, Woody Allen’s newest excuse to work with Scarlett Johansson that also co-stars Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem, premiered in Los Angeles yesterday where apparently everyone was, like, on their period.

Bardem and Cruz, who reportedly have been dating since last fall, walked the red carpet separately. The pair first worked together on the Spanish film Jamon, Jamon.

And we all know how forced hot that was.

That was 17 years ago, a long time,” was all Bardem would say of working with Cruz again.

Hmmm…trouble in paradise? No matter. Boobles Johansson was there to lighten the mood.

Johansson worked the press line minus fiancé Ryan Reynolds and was testy when asked if she has made any wedding plans yet.

“I just got engaged!” she protested. “Give me a little time!”

No, Scarlett. Prove you love Van Wilder NOW.

Even testier was Cruz, who refused to answer what it was like to kiss Johansson in the film. “She and I have been asked that question a thousand times, and we are sorry that we don’t have any funny stories to tell you about it,” she told disappointed reporters.

Sigh. Perhaps we’re still testy from the booing that occurred at Cannes? Below, Woody Allen finally saves the day with his usual pervy charm.
