Once again, celebrity Scarlett Johansson is playing defense for Planned Parenthood.
The May 2016 issue of women’s magazine Cosmopolitan features 31-year-old actress Scarlett Johansson (The Avengers) on its cover. Among other things, Johansson declared in the cover story that the recent push to defund Planned Parenthood should not be a priority and moves America “backward.”
Cosmo’s Katie Connor published an excerpt from the upcoming issue where Johansson commented on “cutting the budget for Planned Parenthood.”
Johansson began by insisted that defunding Planned Parenthood – America’s largest abortion provider – should not be the country’s top priority.
“There are countries at war, there's terrorism, global warming, and we're like, ‘We should definitely cut the budget for Planned Parenthood. Let's take away the availability of women's health initiatives!’” she said. “It's nuts. We're talking about preventing cervical and breast cancers.”
She admitted that she herself used Planned Parenthood’s “services” while “growing up.”
“All my girlfriends did—not just for birth control but for Pap smears and breast exams,” she added.
In the end, Johansson said, defunding Planned Parenthood moves America “backward[s].”
“You read about the rise of back-alley abortions, women having to mutilate themselves and teenagers having to seek help in unsafe conditions, and for what?!” she exclaimed. “We're moving backward when we're supposed to be moving forward.”
Johansson also touched on other topics including equal pay and relationships in the issue that hits newsstands April 12.

Charlotte believes babies are unnecessary.
I guess she’s too dim to think very far ahead.
She hates children.
She’s had at least one abortion.
She has moral relevancy.
Her right, assuages her pain and causes her to act in anger, to synthetically give her moral authority...
So fund it yourself, whore [SJ, just to be clear].
86% of PP’s income comes from abortions.
Another commie lib celebrity who thinks that Americans shive a git about what SHE thinks. She’s just a movie celebrity for Pete’s sake. Someone else has to put words in her mouth so she can do her job.
Take the money given to PP and give it to clinics who don’t perform abortions.
She got a lot of grief from the Left over her support for Israel.
I suspect that part of this message here is her trying to make amends with the power brokers. Of course, she probably does hold foolish views on abortion — but why be public? I think she’s trying to undo damage with the Left.
You want to fund it get out your checkbook, cupcake.
Leave me out of it.

The good news is, she’ll die a lonely, miserable old lady. No kids. No grandchildren.
Isn’t she the one who admitted getting tested for HIV rather, uh, frequently? Must be cutting a wide swath through Hollywood.
“31-year-old actress Scarlett Johansson”
She’s getting old.
(Hollywood values).
You can’t have a free-fornication society without free abortion.
The wonders of make-up and lighting.
Nope it moves us forward towards post-abortion America.
Planned Parenthood has set an all new low for backward.
Franklt, Scarlett, I don’t give a damn.
If you and all your roadie friends love PP so danged much, PAY FOR IT YOURSELVES.
If you have ever seen her without makeup and hairdo and lighting, you might think differently.
