'Her' star Scarlett Johansson feels that life in showbiz is stressful.
The 29-year-old actress said she wants to have it all with fiance Romain Dauriac -- love, career, and kids, reported Us magazine.
"It seems so stressful to not be able to spend time with your family because you're constantly chasing the tail of your own success.
"There must exist a world in which I can balance those things, be able to raise a family and still make a film a year, or work on my own, develop things, do theater. I want to be able to have it all. Selfishly. I know that with that there will be some sacrifices. I know that's the struggle with working mothers and successful careers. It happens," she said.
Johansson feels that the story is different with male actors.
"With (male actors) it just doesn't happen that way. You can be every woman's fantasy, and nobody thinks twice about the fact that you have eight kids or whatever.
