I am surprised that another Scarlett Johansson red carpet moment wasn't the number one pick. An awkward kiss from a costar doesn't come close to the time Isaac Mizrahi groped Scarlett's breast live on the red carpet at the Golden Globes in 2006 while he was working as a fashion reporter for the E network. That one really should be the number one.

[@janejones7638]

As a person who's a victim of sa, seeing the last clip triggered me. Scarjo looked so, so, so uncomfortable. It wasn't the kiss on the cheek but him groping her lower mid-section. She defended him as a courtesy to a fellow actor. It's obvious how shocked, dismayed, and almost wooden she was at the time. Many times when people are uncomfortable, they don't move. It's right before the flight or fight reaction takes place.

[@liligh]

And she said it was not a sa assauæt case. People need to stop projecting their issues on oghers, especiallu when others say its not the case. This is a bigger abuse, to ignore and annull and invalidate what someone says, because it does not suit us.

[@milsc1367]

I'm sorry for what you went through, however, ScarJo has come out herself to say that it was 'totally welcome' and she wasn't uncomfortable with it. Erasing her own words or insisting she only said that as a 'courtesy' because they didn't fit your narrative or match your feelings is inappropriate. Only ScarJo knows how she felt, and if she says she was okay with it it's not our place to say she is wrong.

[@Readysetgo2007]

You shouldn't put words in her mouth, think she knows best how she felt about it. It's not like she doesn't know him at all. But yeah, he is kinda awkward. That moment with Idina Menzel on stage also looked awkward. Maybe he was drunk...?

[@Jah_LEASE_yah]

The whole reason Amy Shummer falling in front of Kimye was news at all was because of their non-reaction. Someone falls in front of u and u just walk away and act like nothing happened? No attempt at helping the person, or even asking if they are okay? 🤦🏽‍♀️

I wish that one of these days, when a man decides to kiss a woman unexpectedly, she just slaps him! Or push him off. Halle Berry should have done it on the Oscars. Scarlett should have done it here. And for her to explain / apologize to Travolta afterwords is just crazy. No person should just grab or kiss another person like that, specially when it’s a public moment like these cuz it then puts all the pressure on the recipient to handle it ‘well’ in the moment. And if a woman gets upset about it, she gets called names. Travolta was wrong!

Yeah, I agree. Madonna should learn that lesson as well.
