Scarlett Johansson's Weeding Gift

posted on Jul 02, 2009

Samuel L. Jackson, who worked with Scarlett Johansson in "The Spirit," admitted to the Late Show with David Letterman that he invested in a beehive for Scarlett Johansson after she let him known of the insect's declining population. "Scarlett was always talking about how the bees were dying and the planet was going to die. I was telling her that people keep saying the bees are dying because they want to charge us more for fruit and vegetables," he explained. "So she kept complaining about the bees, we had the same dressing room. 'Sam, the bees are dying, we need to do something', so I said, 'Ok, what I'm going to do is buy you a beehive as your weeding gift'. "And she thought I was kidding. So once they got married, and when the weather was right, I sent my sister out to a bee farm, we got about five pounds of bees. We got them some bee suits and hats as well."
