Johansson 'wants to sing like Sinatra'

Scarlett Johansson has revealed that she would like to be able to sing like Frank Sinatra.

According to AOL, the Rat Pack star was one of Johansson's childhood heroes.

"I always wanted to be Frank Sinatra," she confessed. "Even as a little kid, I always thought I'd grow up and sound like Sinatra. I'm still waiting for that to happen.

"A lot of actors are great mimics anyway, and that can relate to music as well. I think all singers are acting, whether it's their lyrics or another writer's lyrics, they are performing.

"I don't think the two are dissimilar."

Johansson also told The Times that she was pleased when her friend Pete Yorn asked her to record an album with him.

"As soon as one project ends you never think you will get the chance again," she admitted. "I was just flattered that Pete thought of me and put the faith in me that I could creatively collaborate on anything."
