JOHANSSON MISSES OSCARS FOR CHARITY WORK

Actress SCARLETT JOHANSSON was a no-show at Oscar parties on Sunday (25FEB07) after snubbing the event to visit Sri Lanka and India on a charity project. The LOST IN TRANSLATION beauty, 22, is spending 10 days in the South Asia region as part of a trip organised by international aid agency Oxfam. Oxfam executive director JEREMY HOBBS says, "By supporting Oxfam, Scarlett is taking a stand alongside millions of people globally who are working to overcome poverty. "Her support is crucial in helping to show how the smallest donation to Oxfam can mean the world of difference to a poor community."
