Scarlett Johansson is among many Hollywood heavyweights who earned an Emmy nomination this year. The half-Jewish, half-Scandinavian blonde beauty scored her first one for her role in, "A View From The Bridge." "It has been a dream come true to be a part of the Broadway community," Johansson said. "I am deeply honored to be nominated and so proud to have been a part of this extraordinary production." Scarlett's co-star, and fellow Member of the Tribe, Liev Schreiber, also earned a nomination.
There were plenty of other A-listers who landed Tony nominations, including Denzel Washington, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Christopher Walken.
As far as the overall picture heading into Broadway's biggest night, two strikingly different musicals, "Fela!" - - the innovative Afro-beat biography of Nigerian superstar Fela Anikulapo-Kuti - - and "La Cage aux Folles" - - a revival of the classic Jerry Herman-Harvey Fierstein musical celebrating family - - each earned a leading 11 nominations.
Winners will be announced June 13th during a ceremony televised by CBS from Radio City Music Hall.
