She’s not the jealous type
Memorizing your passwords and going through your phone for suspicious text messages? That’s not Johansson’s style. “I’m not the jealous type who does background checks,” she told reporters at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival. “I’m not that type of girlfriend.” Romain Dauriac obviously knew he had a keeper, since he recently popped the question and took Johansson off the market for good.Hollywood’s Hottest Bikini Bodies >>>

She’s down to earth

And, if ever I have a problem, I just jump in a taxi.”Hot Girls Who Ride Harleys >>>

She likes to cook

She’s admitted to being a great baker (she makes pies, cookies, and even her own bagels) as well as cooking her own Paleo meals.
