There have been rumors, but did Scarlett Johansson have a fling with Justin Timberlake recently? Of course, Scarlett is not saying. “We live in a world today where if two people are single, and one’s a guy and one’s a girl and they’re both famous, you’re going to be linked with somebody,” the 22-year-old actress tells Seventeen magazine’s May issue.

“If it’s somebody one week, it’s going to be somebody else the next week. It’s either me or Jessica Biel,” Johansson says with a laugh.

Timberlake, a former member of N Sync, and “Charlie’s Angels” actress Cameron Diaz, who had been dating since 2003, confirmed their split in January. Timberlake’s high-profile relationship with Britney Spears fortunately ended in 2002. On the flip side, Johansson, who broke up with Josh Hartnett last fall, says she’s not focused on finding another boyfriend.

If she were in a relationship, the actress says she’d create a sense of mystery. It doesn’t count as a relationship unless the other person knows about, Scarlett!
