The 40-year-old model and dancer, known as Queen of Burlesque, said the 28-year-old actress was fixated with her during a show, and the feeling was mutual, as Dita thinks she'd make a great dancer, reported Contactmusic.
"If I had to pick one of today's celebrities to be a burlesque dancers I'd chose Scarlett Johansson. She came to one of my burlesque shows once, she was sitting front row with her mouth agape and she couldn't take her eyes off of me," Dita said.
Dita, who believes every artist should have their own character and style, was also full of praise for a number of other A-Listers who have made their mark in the entertainment industry.
"I am from Detroit (Michigan) and Madonna is from around there. She's been the person who influenced my career the most, she's interesting; she's an icon.
"I love Lady Gaga and her eccentric spirit. She's fascinating and charming, but there will never be another Madonna," Dita said.
