Scarlett Johansson's looking plump...

These pictures of Scarlett jogging with her new beau, Sean Penn (we still don't understand what she sees in him) were taken recently to lots of speculation that the star might be pregnant.

Seriously?

Scarlett's people spoke to...People and said:

"But a rep for Johansson warns not to jump to conclusions, and reveals a few common missteps that make up the anatomy of a pregnancy rumor:

Step 1: Catch the celebrity at an awkward angle
“She’s outside running and it’s simply the placement of her shirt that is misleading,” her rep, Marcel Pariseau, tells PEOPLE of Johansson.

Step 2: Single out the one photo that portrays her as a mere mortal
“She was followed and photographed for over 20 minutes and I’m sure there are other photos in the series that show and prove that she is not pregnant,” the rep points out.

Step 3: Set the record straight
“Scarlett is not pregnant,” Pariseau says, adding for good measure. “She’s been training for The Avengers for over four months and is in the best shape of her life.”

Are we so used to seeing stick thin actresses that our standards for plump have become ridiculous?

P.S What the fuck is she wearing on her feet?
