HOLLYWOOD stunner Scarlett Johansson was left blushing after her breasts were groped on live television.
The actress went bright red after TV reporter Isaac Mizrahi fondled her left boob as she was interviewed before the Golden Globe Awards on Tuesday (AEDT). Mizrahi had asked the screen beauty what she was wearing underneath her sexy red dress.
When she replied, "Not much", he said: "Not much, except there's something going on underneath".
As stunned fans looked on, the presenter cupped the star's breast in one hand and said: "It's built in, I just wanna feel it - oh, I just love that."
When Scarlett asked what he was doing, Mizrahi joked: "I'm just taking notes."
The 21-year-old actress said: "Well, take all the notes you want."
Earlier this month, it was revealed Scarlett banned Match Point co-star Jonathan Rhys-Meyers from looking at her breasts while filming sex scenes.
The stunning blonde told the handsome actor to stop leering at her curves while they filmed the raunchy romps - but he says he peeped anyway.
He told US TV show Unscripted: "I remember Scarlett telling me not to look at her t**s. But I did sneak a peek - I couldn't help it, they were in my face."

Four transplants from Cleveland key to Denver's defensive resurgence
DENVER - Back in August, during an extended preseason trip to Houston, new Bronco Gerard Warren was hot, tired and definitely sick of being the national butt of the NFL jokesters.
The mammoth defensive tackle was the centerpiece of the Denver Browncos. He was the main inspiration for all the laughter. He had heard the chuckles all the way from Lake Erie.
"They’ll stop laughing, especially in Cleveland, when we win that Super Bowl," Warren said. "When I’m in Detroit, waving that Denver Bronco flag after we win the Super Bowl, they’ll stop laughing. I’ll be there smiling and waving to Cleveland, and telling them that I’m a Super Bowl champion."
A fun retort from a player who was sick of hearing his and his buddies’ names being picked on is suddenly close to reality. Five months later, it’s no preseason fantasy. The Broncos might win the Super Bowl. And Warren might be waving that flag.
Denver is the new favorite to win the Super Bowl, in large part because of several offseason acquisitions, mostly notably four defensive lineman from Cleveland.
Denver’s offseason was highly criticized. Nationally, pundits couldn’t understand why, in three separate moves, the Broncos took the Browns’ front four.
After all, this was the group that was ranked No. 28 in the NFL against the run. It was a group that the Browns' new coach, defensive guru Romeo Crennel, didn’t want. It was a group of malingers, accident-prone and journeymen.
Why would Denver want Warren, Courtney Brown, Ebenezer Ekuban and Michael Myers? The Browns didn’t want them, and the Browns were horrible.
In retrospect, why not? Why didn’t any other team want them?
Heading into the AFC championship game against Pittsburgh, Denver has been fueled by its defense. The unit is a veteran group that has been ball-hawking opponents all year.
The Broncos have the NFL’s most reliable running game and an efficient Jake Plummer at quarterback, but make no mistake: Denver is two wins from its third Super Bowl title because of defense.
"It all starts up front," coach Mike Shanahan said. "Our front has been outstanding."
Thank you, Cleveland.
Last February, the Denver defensive line was in a shambles as the team was coming off its second consecutive blowout playoff loss at Indianapolis. Star Trevor Pryce had missed virtually all of 2004, and sack leader Reggie Hayward was on his way to Jacksonville for $25 million.
Who was going to play on the defensive front in Denver? Hello, Cleveland.
First, the Broncos dealt for Warren. With All-Pro ability, Warren was an underachiever in Cleveland after being the No. 3 overall pick four years earlier. He was known more for his mouth and off-field issues than for his play on the field.
Then, Denver signed Brown. The No. 1 overall pick in 2000, Brown spent more times in hospitals than huddles as a Brown.
Then, the Broncos completed their foursome by trading 1,000-yard rusher Reuben Droughns for Ekuban and Myers.
One, two, three, four … Browns?
"We heard all the jokes," Denver general manager Ted Sundquist said. "But we knew what we were getting. We knew Gerard would be revitalized, we knew Courtney would be dominant if healthy, and we knew Ebenezer and Michael were very underrated, hard working guys. This has worked out very well for us."
Warren has people in Denver wondering where that "lazy" tag came from. He has instantly become a locker room leader and has amazed coaches with his sideline-to-sideline approach in practice. Every day.
Warren has dominated some games and has been a huge cog in the middle of the field. He is a major reason why Denver was the No. 2-ranked run defense in the NFL.
Brown has been healthy all season for the first time in three seasons and has also excelled against the run. He caused a key fumble against New England in the divisional playoffs that set up the go-ahead touchdown.
Ekuban has brought an incredible energy off the bench and has emerged one of the most respected veterans in the locker room.
Myers stole a starting job in minicamp and hasn’t looked back. Insiders in the organization say he’s the motor that starts the entire line. And he was a throw-in in the Droughns’ deal.
"We knew we that Denver was getting a good deal," Warren said. "Now the whole country knows it."
Stop laughing.

Cliché-packed dating show is ideal for cynics
If you like love, there are plenty of things on television for you to watch. Sappy movies, snappy romantic comedies, lush dramas — the choices are limitless. But if you hate love — really, really hate it — there is one perfect show for you: "The Bachelor" (ABC, Mondays, 10 p.m. ET, returns Jan. 9).
This time around, unlike the semi-celebrities (Jesse Palmer of the NFL) and semi-semi-celebrities (Charlie O'Connell of the family of Jerry O'Connell of "Crossing Jordan") of recent seasons, the Bachelor himself is an ordinary guy. At least as ordinary as a 33-year-old ER doctor willing to be shipped off to Paris to romance a bunch of women all at the same time while audiences watch is going to get. So it's love-hating time again.
Why is this the ideal show for cynics? Start with the fact that "The Bachelor" and its sister show "The Bachelorette" almost always ultimately result in busted romances. Sure, there was the marriage of Trista and Ryan, and the most recent couples haven't had a chance to break up yet, including Byron and his biological-clock-watching bride Mary from the sixth season, and tall Charlie and tiny Sarah from the seventh.

Biden: 'Genuine struggle' afoot over application of Constitution
WASHINGTON - Democrats promised Samuel Alito tough questions on executive power, privacy rights and abortion as the Senate Judiciary Committee opened confirmation hearings Monday on President Bush’s choice to become the nation’s 110th Supreme Court justice.
Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., focused on the larger debate over interpretation of the Constitution, saying that there is a "genuine struggle" over key issues in the document, thus the questioning was right to be extensive and probing.
The hearings, he said, come in the middle of "the most significant national debate in modern Constitutional history," he said, arguing that Americans are "entitled to know" what Alito thinks.

Wild-card playoffs Saturday, Jan. 7 Washington 17, Tampa Bay 10 New England 28, Jacksonville 3 Sunday, Jan. 8 Carolina 23, N.Y. Giants 0 Pittsburgh 31, Cincinnati 17
Washington: There’s not a lot to talk about here, which makes it fortunate that the Redskins are coached by the legendary Joe Gibbs, who at least gives the media someone to write about. Their quarterback is the aging veteran Mark Brunell, a competent field general despite his poor showing in the wild-card win over the Bucs. The Redskins, like all good NFC East teams, would prefer to run first, and Clinton Portis can be a force. Wideout Santana Moss is a dangerous big-play receiver and returner. Linebackers Marcus Washington and Lemar Marshall lead the defense in tackles, end Phillip Daniels is the primary pass rusher, and Marshall also leads in interceptions with four.
Seattle: Seattle was the best regular-season team in the NFC, largely because of Shaun Alexander, who led the league in rushing with 1,880 yards and set a league record with 28 touchdowns, 27 of which came on the ground. Alexander isn’t a big pass-receiving threat, but with the ground game he provides, the Seahawks don’t need to do a lot in the air. Matt Hasselbeck is an efficient quarterback who threw for 24 touchdowns with just nine interceptions. Bobby Engram is Hasselbeck’s leading target, but not by a lot; the Hawks spread it around fairly evenly to Joe Jurevicius, Jerramy Stevens and Darrell Jackson, now healthy, as well. The Seahawks defense can get after you and had an impressive total of 50 sacks on the year, led by end Rocky Bernard’s 8.5 and linebacker Leroy Hill’s 7.5. Rookie linebacker Lofa Tatupu from USC has been an impact player on defense and leads the team in tackles. --------------------------------------
Redskins win if ... As luck would have it, they have a template, having beaten the Hawks 20-17 in overtime back on Oct. 2. The key that day was 141 yards rushing, 90 by Portis, and just one turnover as Brunell went 20-for-36, two touchdowns and one interception. That same formula should work again: rush the ball, don’t make mistakes, and hope their kicker misses the game winner. If they want to be sure of winning, scoring two touchdowns off turnovers, as they did in the wild-card win over the Bucs, would provide the guarantee. --------------------------------------
Patriots: They’re all getting to be household names, which is what happens when you win two straight Super Bowls and three out of four. Quarterback Tom Brady has carried this team all year and continues to do so. Corey Dillon leads a modest running game, but the Patriots are primarily a passing team. Deion Branch and David Givens are the top receivers, but Brady spreads it around as well as anyone. In goal-line situations, linebacker Mike Vrabel is a dangerous target working out of the tight-end position. Defensively, linebackers Vrabel, Tedy Bruschi and Willie McGinest always seem to make big plays; end Richard Seymour is often the one helping them. In close games, no one’s better at pressure field goals than Adam Vinatieri.
Broncos: All eyes will be on quarterback Jake Plummer, who’s always had a strong arm, but, until this year, never used it very wisely. Plummer’s touchdowns are down from 27 last year to 17 this year, but his interceptions have dropped from 20 to 7. The result has been the best year of his career and the second seed in the AFC. But now the games really count and coach Mike Shanahan hasn’t won a playoff game since John Elway retired with the second of his back-to-back Super Bowl trophies. Mike Anderson and Tatum Bell share the duties at running back and combined for nearly 2,000 yards. Rod Smith, a 12th-year veteran, is the go-to receiver. Defensively, the Broncos don’t strike fear into quarterbacks –- at least not physical fear; they had just 28 sacks on the year. But Champ Bailey is a premier cornerback who picked off eight passes in a year in which he missed two games. Former Buc safety John Lynch has added needed toughness to the defense, as well.
--------------------------------------
Steelers: The Steelers are masters at taking control of a game on the ground and mixing in a very efficient passing game led by second-year quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. Willie Parker is the featured running back, and, when the Steelers need short yardage, they turn to the Bus, Jerome Bettis, who is playing the final games of a Hall of Fame career. Bettis has nine of the team’s 25 rushing touchdowns. Of the 21 passing TDs, premier wideout Hines Ward has 11 and Heath Miller, a quality tight end, has six. Antwaan Randle El is a big-play receiver who can also break a punt return. Defensively, the Steelers feature stout linebacking, led by James Farrior, Larry Foote, and Joey Porter, who also leads the team in sacks with 10.5.
Colts: It’s not all Peyton Manning; it just seems that way. Manning threw 28 touchdowns with just 10 interceptions to lead Indy to the top seed in the AFC. As big a star as Manning is, everybody will be watching coach Tony Dungy, whose son, James, committed suicide just before Christmas. How he is able to focus and how the team rallies around him will determine how far they go. Marvin Harrison is one of the best wideouts in the league, and fellow wideout Reggie Wayne actually caught more passes than Harrison. Edgerrin James is the featured back, and he’s one of the most versatile in the league. The difference in the Colts this year is defense. Ends Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis combined for 22.5 sacks this year. Gary Brackett, the middle linebacker, leads the team in tackles.

Jerry Reimer looks through the charred remains of his grandmother in-law's home in Guthrie, Okla., on Monday, after it burned to the ground on Sunday.
RINGGOLD, Texas - Firefighters faced a threat of windier, warmer weather Tuesday as they battled fast-moving blazes that have virtually destroyed some small towns and charred hundreds of thousands of acres of drought-stricken Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico.
Since Dec. 27, flames racing across grassland and farmland have destroyed more than 250 buildings. Four deaths were reported last week in Texas and Oklahoma...
On Monday, authorities went house to house in a search for victims in burned-out Texas towns including Ringgold. A weekend blaze destroyed most of the ranch-and-cattle community of about 100 people near the Oklahoma line. Fifty other homes and 40,000 acres were torched as wind swept the fire 13 miles from Ringgold to Nocona.
