Scarlett Johansson “isn’t shy about going after a guy!” begins a piece from Star magazine, which claims the actress is “making a big play for Jeremy Renner as they shoot The Avengers in NYC.”

According to a so-called “source” for the tabloid, “She follows him around and is so touchy-feely.”

But the Hurt Locker star is “steering clear” of Johansson, says the “source,” who explains, “He heard she can be very clingy.”

Well, that’s embarrassing… for Star.

The mag has been repeatedly mistaken when it comes to Johansson’s love life, and this latest tale is no different.

A rep for Renner tells Gossip Cop the tab’s story is “ridiculous and so wrong!” explaining that Johansson and Renner are actually just “great friends.”

Oops.

Is Scarlett Johansson, who last year released the album, “Anyway I Lay My Head,” and who recently performed with Pete Yorn, heading to Broadway for a revival of the musical “Promises, Promises?”

 A number of outlets, like Perez Hilton, are reporting the rumor, even though there’s no theater, no scheduled dates, or anything else tangible.

“Scoop” Hilton writes, “Originally Anna Hathaway was said to be taking the leading lady role of Fran the waitress, but it appears Mrs. Ryan Reynolds is now on the table.”

Really?!

Well, without getting into how Perez also insulted Johansson as a singer, all we’ll say is that her rep told Gossip Cop that not only is there “absolutely no truth to this” tale about her performing on the Great White Way, but also “she has not been approached about this project.”

Perez, once again, must have gotten something “Lost in Translation.”

According to the National Enquirer, Alanis Morissette is penning a “tell-all,” and Scarlett Johansson is spittin’ mad about it because the singer “is blowing the lid off her former relationship with Scarlett’s new hubby, actor Ryan Reynolds,” whom Morissette dated for a couple of years.

The supermarket tab has someone they’ve called an “insider” saying, “Ryan was an important part of Alanis’ life, and she plans to dedicate an entire chapter to her relationship with him, how devastated she was by their breakup, and how she felt when he married.”

So why has Morissette decided to do this now?

The so-called source explains, “Alanis was inspired to write her life story by the sudden death of Michael Jackson . . . She sees how much conflicting information there is about Michael, and she doesn’t want that to happen to her.”

[Laughter break]

“She wants to lay her life out for everyone to see – even if it angers Scarlett,” continues the source.

OK, Gossip Cop can tell you that there is a kernel of truth here. Morissette is writing a book.

However, Morissette discussed penning a book several months before Jackson’s death. And there will NOT be a chapter about Reynolds. Instead, her rep says the memoir-like book will be a “collection of photos, lessons learned on the road, recipes… “

Yeah, that should totally tick off Johansson.
