Scarlett Johansson desperate for Tom Waits approval

Actress cum singer Scarlett Johansson is eager to release her album of Tom Waits cover, as she wants to know what the legendary singer feels about her singing.

The 23-year-old actress debut album with the hit single Anywhere I Lay My Head will be launched in US on 20th May.

David Bowie has also sung for the album and has praised Scarlett’s singing.

A nervous Johansson reveals, “When I was presented with the idea, the ultimate goal was to not get chased down by Tom Waits and get my ass beat in a bar.
“I’ve heard from people who are friends with him that he’s very pleased with it. He’s been really supportive - not from the sidelines, but from a far, far distance.

“It was constantly in the back of my mind that if we did something Tom Waits hated, he’d come at me with a hammer.”
