Everything she touches turns to gold, so not content with being an A-list actress, sex symbol and fashion icon, Hollywood darling Scarlett Johansson is turning her talents to singing.

Actress does pop? We've heard it all before...but this young lady's debut album, Anywhere I Lay My Head, isn't an exercise in bubblegum pop: it's an edgy, smouldering take on Tom Waits that couldn't be more different from Lindsay Lohan or JLo, and - shock, horror - even the music critics are impressed. 

At 24, Scarlett Johansson is already earning comparisons with screen icons Marilyn Monroe and Lauren Bacall, and is regularly voted the sexiest woman in the world. She's a bombshell with brains, a curvy beauty who loves her body, and a private character who avoids the paparazzi. In fact, if she wasn't quite so darn likeable, we'd probably hate her...

We take a look at Scarlett's rise to fame, her singing career and how her style has developed over the years.
