Scarlett
Johansson, the new USD4 million face of cosmetics company L'Oreal, is the
latest celebrity who longs to be an archaeologist.
However, if you ever find yourself digging next to the Lost in Translation
star, you might want to offer her some discreet advice on artefact identification
and which tools she should be using.
In an interview she said: 'If I weren't making movies, I'd be an archaeologist,
looking for fossils. I love ancient Egypt. Cut to me in 120- degree heat,
picking at a rock with a four- inch needle.'
Have you spotted an interview with a celebrity who says they'd rather be
an archaeologist? Write in and let us know. Or are you a digger who would
like to swap lives with Scarlett Johansson?
Write to us at the usual address explaining why. We'll contact her and sort
it out for you.
