Scarlett Johansson & Sean Penn’s Mexican getaway: is it romance or just sex?

wenn3230864

So, Scarlett Johansson and Sean Penn are boning. It’s official now. Us Weekly reported it about four weeks ago, much to the dismay of ScarJo’s rep, who issued a denial to Gossip Cop (reps lie, how shocking). Then on Tuesday, TMZ got their hands on a photo of ScarJo and Sean eating lunch together – with ScarJo’s foot on Sean’s dong. Okay, maybe that was too graphic, but it wasn’t like she had her foot on his knee, it was definitely in the crotch area (swimsuit area?). Now People Magazine (for goodness sake) reports that ScarJo and Sean have jetted off to Mexico – they have taken their love (of screwing) to Cabo.

It was a short getaway, but Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson made the most of it.

The pair left on a private jet from Van Nuys airport Tuesday morning, then were spotted having dinner in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, that night, according to sources. Early Wednesday morning, they returned to Los Angeles where Johansson is shooting the film We Bought a Zoo with Matt Damon.

On the menu during their Mexican meal? Penn, 50 and Johansson, 26, reportedly enjoyed lobster and, of course, margaritas.

Earlier this week, the twosome were seen sharing a casual lunch at the popular Los Angeles Cuban restaurant, Versailles, where Johansson had her leg draped over Penn.

On Feb. 5, the couple raised eyebrows when they stayed unusually close to each other at a party celebrating Black Swan at the L.A. hotspot Sunset Tower Hotel, then reportedly left together. “They were flirting with each other all night, pretty much ignoring everyone else,” a source told PEOPLE at the time.

Johansson’s rep told PEOPLE at the time that they the two were not dating.

Neither of their reps have commented on the pair’s most recent sightings.

Johansson and Ryan Reynolds, 34, split in December after two years of marriage. In August of 2009, Robin Wright, 44, filed for divorce from Penn. The couple had been married 13 years.

Wait, so the trip to Mexico wasn’t even a 24-hour thing? That’s so weird. Sean probably needed to make a “quick stop” in Tijuana to see a man about a goat (“goat” being “a brick of cocaine”). This whole thing is so bizarre, it really is. If it was just about screwing, I would understand it, you know? Sean seems like the kind of guy who would be good in bed (and a douchebag everywhere else), and I could see how a 25-year-old woman would think “Yeah, I need to get laid properly by a dude who knows what he’s doing.” But this ScarJo-Sean thing just feels like… she’s gotten emotional about it. Like, it’s an actual romance and not just a sex thing. Ugh.

UPDATE: People Magazine has a photo of ScarJo & Sean together in Mexico here.

    What a wonderful development for everyone who loves celeb stories. This is going to be fun.

  2. emine says:

    i wish i was in her shoes ..lol

  3. brin says:

    Maybe she’s getting back at Ryan for being with Sandra Bullock….”I’ll see your Oscar winner and up the ante with my own Oscar winner”.

  4. Quest says:

    Ayee, ayeee…I think I preferred to have Ryan R images rather than the Scarjo (romance included) and Penn (sex only) in my head at this moment.

    It’s gonna be a mexican tortilla with spicy jalenpenos down in Cabo.

  5. Eve says:

    As long as she stays away from MY (you hear me, ladies? MY) Benicio Del Toro, I’m good with whoever she wants to date — Sean Penn is repulsive though. But then that’s her problem, not mine.

  6. Isa says:

    Maybe it’s for a new role/movie they are doing together?

    I know I sound naive…..

  7. Johnthing says:

    He’s so gross. Yuck. And a commie to boot.

  8. SHump says:

    I just can’t. It’s vile. All of it. No.

  9. flourpot says:

    If the rumours are true and he’s into coke, perhaps that would explain her looking so rough lately. I can only imagine your inhibitions would falter on that stuff and if he’s right there… ug, pardon me – I need to go vomit.

  10. David says:

    Wow she is going down the tubes!

  11. Granger says:

    Talk about wanting someone COMPLETELY different from your ex! Ryan is so healthy, fit, and wholesome; Penn is such a hard-smoking-drinking-and-partying bad ass. Frankly, I’ve never been able to see his appeal, but hey, whatever floats Scarlett’s boat.

  12. devilgirl says:

    Scarlett gets around. Wasn’t she supposedly all over Jeremy Renner at the Oscars?

  13. Isabel says:

    Girlfriend is just having a good time. God bless.

    However, I could think of 15,000 men I’d rather do than Sean Penn. JACKED.

  14. beth says:

    E and W.

    this kind of thing only encourages more old men to hit on young girls…….
    excuse me, i don’t feel so well……

  15. Whatever says:

    She does seem to get around and whatever, who cares. The thing that gets me is when the Sandra/Ryan story came out, she or one of her people put out that story of her being “hurt” by it. Please, she’s been boning whoever and whatever (with no standards, obviously) since they broke up. That’s cool, but don’t try to make yourself look like a poor wounded little doe when your ex gets a little, while at the same time jumping on any dong you can find. That two faced hypocrisy really bugs me. Just be who you are!

  16. Marie says:

    He just looks like a dirty old man. Yuck! When ScarJo first chopped off her hair it actually looked cute, WTF is that rats nest on top of her head now? Ever heard of a brush?

  17. Melanie says:

    @ Eve, Do you know who my man Benicio is dating? I love him! I even dream about that sucker. There is a darling pic of him in February’s Vanity Fair if you are interested. (the events section)

  18. Crash2GO2 says:

    I love her dress and makeup here – those colors on her look fabulous. As for the Sean Penn dong-dalliance I got nothin’.

  19. guesty says:

    lol @ brin.

  20. PrettyTarheel says:

    @Eve:
    You’re going down, woman. That is MY Benecio, and has been for a long time.

    Otherwise, ewwww, Sean Penn would smell like: cokewhore model sweat and his own self-aggrandizement. Yuck.

  21. aenflex says:

    she can do better. but atfer the del toro thing, this doesn’t surprise me at all.

  22. Micaela says:

    She is looking for work, she will do the
    only thing she knows how to do to get a movie deal. I am sure this is not the first time she does this to get work, I am sure Woody Allen can attest to that.

  23. mln76 says:

    @Whatever exactly, Scarlett has been getting her groove on and is a manslinger in the same mold as Kate Hudson. I’ve mentioned it before-according to Page Six she was getting it on with Axel Rose during her Broadway show. I don’t think she had any right to cry over Ryan and Sandra.

    @Micaela gross, gross, gross I don’t think she screwed Woody Allen. And if she did that is just one of those things that shouldn’t be talked about. Disgusting.

  24. Eve says:

    @ Melanie and PrettyTarheel:

    How dare you to claim possession of something that has been declared* as mine!. Tsk, tsk, the nerve of some people…I shall slut-shank all of you!

    *I did that.

  25. coconut says:

    i like the bit about the “goat,” but just for the record, cabo and tijuana are over 1600 km apart.

  26. operagirl says:

    E to the DoubleU.

    I feel faint now. Bleaaaahhhhhhh.

  27. Nancy says:

    This guy is a notorius womanizer but Scarjo’s dumb enough to probably think it’s love, I mean he was seen wineing and dining other women in Italy just a week ago. I don’t see them as a couple obviously it’s not going to last long she’s probably going to get more emotionally attached to him then he to her.

  28. Carlotta Love says:

    I bet sex with Sean Penn is dirty and haawwwt. He seems like an ass, but he’s incredibly talented and has done extraordinary work for Haiti, from what I’ve read. So for a sport f*ck, I totally get it. Just think of how all that intensity would translate in the bedroom. Get yours, ScarJo!!

  29. garvels says:

    Sleeping with a double academy award winning leftist actor will score her points in Hollyweird! She will be rewarded with a plethora of movie roles for her work in the bedroom.

  30. EdithP says:

    He of course is gross, and there is something about Scarjo I find repellent, I don’t know what it is. So I think they’re a great couple.

  31. Marjalane says:

    Maybe she’s enjoying 4 hour sex sessions, because you know he’s using viagra to keep up with a woman almost 25 years younger than him!! (I know- Major Ewwwwwww. Try getting that image out of your head!)

  32. Rose says:

    Sean is hot, yesterday, today, tomorrow, i definitely would if i were her! Good for them I say, they’re single adults, why not.

  33. lucy2 says:

    He’s a great actor, but holy crap, if she wants to have a fling with someone to get over her divorce, she should go for someone young, hot, and not a douche.

  34. beth says:

    come to think of it, she just signalled her willingness to sleep with influential, high-calibre old men from Hollywood, if she hasn’t already, and we all know who runs Hollywood. she’s not going to run out of job offers anytime soon. honestly, i’m not sure if that’s a really smart political move or plain dumb. but ew, i just dont understand young women who go for old men. i understand why old men would go for younguns – but ive always found older men – like those closer to my parents age, really gross… even as i found them attractive TO LOOK AT for their age. a shag? no way am i letting their wrinkly bits anywhere near mine.

  35. Lem says:

    methinks she has Daddy issues, she seems the type. if you like ‘bad boys’ and you have daddy issues… Sean Penn would be a goldmine!

    Didn’t they already do this a few years ago? They seem SO logical to me!

  36. Lisa says:

    Eww ScarJo! You just lost some cool points.

  37. emine says:

    @whatever- none of Scarlett’s f*ck partners are friends with Ryan as i understand Sandra is or was friends with Scarlett

  38. Roxanne75 says:

    Frickon disgusting. WHAT IN THE HELL?

  39. REALIST says:

    I think it’s a star struck phenom gone awry. Sean Penn is a legendary actor, director, and controversial social activist. Scar Jo, you can admire his work, but you don’t have to sleep with him…

  40. Whatever says:

    @whatever- none of Scarlett’s f*ck partners are friends with Ryan as i understand Sandra is or was friends with Scarlett

    ————-

    That’s irrelevant and who knows how close friends they were. Scarlett can’t screw anything and everything, yet dictate who he is with. It’s delusional.

  41. FatJenny Runs4Burgers says:

    They are just jump offs and totally screwing around. I doubt it will lead to a serious relationship. They are both having a good ol’ time, but that’s it. The sex is probably hot and steamy. Good for them! 1 point for Scarlett and 0 for Ryan.

  42. emine says:

    @ whatever-well it may be irrelevant to you but if my hubby and i ever divorce and he hooks up with one of my girlfriends 2 minutes after i would deffinetly feel dissapointed and mad at them , dont tell me you would feel happy if ur ex and one of your gfs would put you in that position ?!

  43. Syko says:

    Sean Penn isn’t that bad or that old. 50 isn’t old. 80 is old. Maybe his legend acts as an aphrodisiac. Remember the rumors that Marilyn Monroe did Albert Einstein? It’s not always looks that attract people, sometimes it’s the brains or the personality that are attractive.

  44. Micaela says:

    MLN76, there is a photo album that shows scarjo leaning on her side with her gluteus (romp) facing towards Woody Allen, he is sitting behind her looking at her romp. She was leaning like she did in Lost Transalation. They are on a beach. She has been in several of his movies….SJ is famous for using all of assets to get ahead….I am almost positve that the old man has promised her something “big”.

  45. Whatever says:

    @ whatever-well it may be irrelevant to you but if my hubby and i ever divorce and he hooks up with one of my girlfriends 2 minutes after i would deffinetly feel dissapointed and mad at them , dont tell me you would feel happy if ur ex and one of your gfs would put you in that position ?!

    ————–

    That’s just it. Is she Scarlett’s ‘girlfriend’ or a friend of her husbands from work that she also got to know while they were married. I’m thinking it’s the latter, since Sandra and Ryan became friends while working together. As for my husband, his friends from work are his, if we ever divorce and he would be welcome to do whatever he wants there. When I walk away, I’m gone, not living in the past! I still think moving on and banging random guys gives little right to judge and decide who the ex can date. Seems ridiculous.

  46. normades says:

    She’s obviously dating him for “his mind”.

  47. kesb says:

    Now, Robin Wright and Ryan Reynolds would be a better match, in my opinion.

  48. emine says:

    @whatever-i guess we dont know if they were close friends or just aquantencies , all i was saying is IF THEY WERE FRIENDS scarlett had a right to be upset about them hooking up , if not she should have kept her piehole shut , as for her hooking up with random guys i think she has the right to do it , she is young , single and has all the time in the world to have steady relationships too , there is nothing wrong with experiencing before deciding what suits you best

  49. Micaela says:

    I agree that scarho has the right to date whom ever she wants, young or old.

    If she wants to come across like she lost her mind and appear like an idiot, that’s her choice as well.

    We do live in a free country.

  50. ordinarygirl86 says:

    The thing is guys she’s 25 and she’s going through a divorce so young!

    Raise your hand if you’ve gotten out of a relationship and as a way of coping you started a shamefuck relationship with a douchebag who was all wrong for you? (Raises BOTH hands)

    Besides even though he is a world class douche I bet the sex is nasty,dirty,hot n rough!

    With time (or after the peen gets stale) this too shall pass….

  51. the original bellaluna says:

    I hate to say this *hangs head in shame* but I truly believe Sean would be AMAZING in bed. He just gives off that vibe.

    @ Kaiser – Yes! I can totally see ScarHo being thrilled that a guy would rather look at her while they’re in bed than his own reflection in a conveniently-placed mirror.

  52. Elleh says:

    You’re Scarlet Johannson. You’re young. You’re drop-dead gorgeous. You were married to Ryan Reynolds. He’s young. He’s drop-dead gorgeous. You’re divorced. You want to be photographed by the paps frollicking in Mexico with a hot guy in an effort to make your ex drown in jealousy and regret. Note to Scarlet: Sean Penn is the one you pick when you want to get back at your Republican congressman – not your dreamy ex-husband. Fail.

  53. Micaela says:

    I think she chose Sean Penn, because she with Sean Penn would generate more media frenzy. Scarho likes the attention, the more attention the better and to her, it’s all about her exposure. The beautiful body, the pouty lips, the smile, the hair and how hot she is. She is beautiful! But, you but you don’t crap on people, so you can elevate yourself without regard of who you hurt. She will probably be the one who hurts Sean Penn. The old man will probably fall in love with her and she will dump him when she gets what she wants from him.

  54. DrM says:

    Ok…for starters Sean Penn is not old…sheesh. Man is what late forties? 2.. always thought Ryan Reynolds looked extremely boring and whitebread. You wouldn’t call Sean Penn boring…3…men get MUCH better in bed as they get into their forties…MUCH. 4…it’d be so nice to be able to sit down with someone and have a smoke, a drink and a meal without the alcohol/food/health police being called in by your dinner partner LOL. Oh and I’m a committed socialist, so the leftie commie thing also works for me…

    MMM mmm Mmm…go Ms J

  55. Gab says:

    Whatever,

    Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock have been friends for 11 years.

    She and Scarlett became friends after Scarlett and Ryan became a couple.

  56. Snarky_Pup says:

    nasty.

  57. Nikki says:

    Sean Penn is such a crotchety old bastard, and he screws all kinds of women left and right. He can’t be faithful to anyone. This whole thing ought to be entertaining.

  58. ezra says:

    I hope she scrubs him down real good beforehand and scrubs herself off real good afterwards.
