Scarlett Johansson has bought a $7 million Hollywood house. The native New Yorker has bought the property which is situated on an acre of land in the Outpost Estates area of Los Angeles from her director-producer friend Harold Becker.
The seven-bedroom Spanish-style home is 4,300 sq ft and Scarlett's new neighbors include Brad Pitt and his partner Angelina Jolie, Sharon Stone, Meg Ryan and Denzel Washington.
Meanwhile, Scarlett, who is an Oxfam ambassador, has spent two weeks in India and Sri Lanka working with the relief charity to increase awareness about global poverty and suffering.
Speaking about leaving her glitzy lifestyle behind, Scarlett, 22, said: "It was nice to feel part of the community. Certainly your own vanity is the last thing on your mind when you're traveling in a place like this."
The blonde star - whose next movie 'The Nanny Diaries' is released in the U.S. this month - feels privileged to use her status for good causes.
She said: "It's amazing to come home when you see people living in poverty. On one hand you're thinking, my celebrity life is so surreal, but it's my work and helps me bring awareness to Oxfam."
