Pitchfork asked Tom Waits what he thought and he was actually okay about it:

Pitchfork: I'm sure you know Scarlett Johannson is recording an album of your songs?

Tom Waits: Well no, I read about it in the paper.

Pitchfork: No one consulted you beforehand?

Tom Waits: No, no. But, you know, more power to her.

Pitchfork: Are you excited to hear it?

Tom Waits: I don't know if I'm excited to hear it, but I'm curious. People make songs so that somebody else will hear them and want to do them. I guess it's an indication that the songs aren't so ultra-personal that they can't possibly be interpreted by anyone else. I've seen her in movies. I don't know what she's going to do with the tunes. When you get a hold of somebody else's song, you make it your own. That's all you can do. And that usually requires a certain amount of tailoring. Cut the sleeves off, lay some buttons. Everybody does something different to a song, that's the tradition.

uh. color me shocked and surprised but i wasn't aware she could sing. i hope she doesn't ruin tom waits for me.

^ The best one was The Soup this week, Joe McHale was pretending to be on the beach with her, holding up signs like "wave your hands around" and "look dead behind the eyes."

I didn't like Blacklight. Just so you all know.
