Portugal is still one of the countries in the crosshairs of international celebrities, and it looks like there’s going to be a new girl in town, a well-known Hollywood resident. Yes, the 33-year-old actress Scarlett Johansson fell in love with Lisbon, Portugal’s city of seven hills, and decided to buy an apartment in the Príncipe Real neighbourhood.
This is by no means the first time a world-renowned A-lister has upped sticks to Portugal. In 2017, Lisbon played host to a multimillion euro transfer, and no, we’re not talking about football. It’s another superstar celebrity who flew from New York directly to Portugal to buy a house. Who are we talking about here?
Only the queen of pop herself, Madonna, who surrendered to the charms of the sunny Atlantic coast of Portugal. It’s definitive: Portugal is still on the world's radar and Lisbon is the place to be for celebrities.
Now it's Scarlett Johansson's turn to join the list of celebrities who are already walking the Portuguese streets, according to the news agency Sol. This list is growing longer, with the likes of Monica Bellucci and Michael Fassbender having already invested in the country, as has fashion designer Louboutin, who wants to build a boutique hotel in Melides.
The American actress, best known for films such as "Lost in Translation", "Match Point", "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" and the "Avengers" saga, is one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood. Looks like Lisbon is hotting up – you don’t have to go to Hollywood to see the stars anymore because they’re rolling out the red carpet in Portugal!
