Anticipation Builds for Ironman 2

If you’re a die hard Iron Man fan and just cannot wait for the movie Ironman 2 to arrive in theaters, just wait ’till you hear about this: Two lucky (and presumably obscenely wealthy) fans will be having the time of their lives when they get to personally attend the premier of the movie together with the lady of the hour, Scarlett Johanssen, who plays Tony Stark’s secretary in the new movie, Natasha Romanoff, AKA the Black Widow. “How do I get those tickets?” You ask? “I simply must have them”, you say? Well I’m sorry to have to tell you that you are too late. The tickets were made available for auction as a way to raise money for charity. Unfortunately for all you fans who wanted a chance, the auction ended back on September 24, 2009. The auction was held to benefit Jogannssen’s favorite charity, Oxfam.

Oxfam, according to their web site is “A group of non-governmental organizations from three continents working worldwide to fight poverty and injustice.”

“Oxfam is an incredibly worthy organization that I’m most passionate about.” Johanssen said in a statement recently and no wonder – she has attended many of their events and even acts as an ambassador (basically, someone who goes to various trouble spots around the world and represents herself as offering hope and help on behalf of Oxfam) for the organization.

The winning bidder on eBay and his or her guest have been offered the chance to attend the Hollywood premiere of the IronMan 2 movie (travel expenses not included) and will also receive a complimentary session at the Cristophe Salon in Beverly Hills, California so that he or she can be properly primmed for the gala event.

Also up for bids at the same eBay site will be a signed LP record from Iron Man 2 Star Scarlett Johannsen herself, her hit single “Realtor” (a duet with Pete Yorn) and her very own chair from the set of the movie “He’s Just Not That Into You.”

As the excitement over the new IronMan 2 movie grows, one may expect that Johannessen will try to find additional material to auction off in order to help her favorite cause, so be sure to keep checking around and who knows, maybe you too can get a ticket to the gala event. If nothing else, check out Iron Man 2 in theaters this spring.
