The blonde actress reportedly insisted on being driven 100 yards across the Los Angeles set on the first day of filming, on He’s Just Not That Into You, while co-star Drew Barrymore walked the distance.

Scarlett, 22, also allegedly demanded three assistants shielded her from the elements with umbrellas.

An on set source said: “Scarlett’s a total diva. Some people are cool, and others are not.”

However, a member of the production team defended the Lost In Translation star’s actions, saying: “We prefer talent use vans when filming on public streets, and Scarlett has only been professional.”

Scarlett splashed out UKP400,000 this summer on a “gigantic” new home. She purchased the seven-bedroom Los Angeles property, located in the exclusive Hollywood Hills area, from film director Harold Becker.
