SCARLETT JOHANSSON'S PETE YORN DUO

Scarlett Johansson

Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson is planning a new duo with singer/songwriter Pete Yorn. Scarlett, who hit the charts last year, with an CD full of Tom Waits tunes, recorded tracks for Break Up in 2007 - and now Yorn plans to release the project this September. The songwriter legend tells Billboard.com he hopes to recreate the kind of the working relationship between French stars Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot with the actress. He says, "I was really into Bonnie & Clyde at the time, by Serge and Brigitte, and I thought, ‘Brigitte… Scarlett! She’s Brigitte!’ It was a really manic thought pattern that was going on. Within 10 minutes, I was texting Scarlett: ‘We have to make a record!’"
