Penelope Cruz: Elegy in NYC

Doing a little promotional duty last night, Penelope Cruz was spotted at the Tribeca Grand Hotel in New York City for a private screening of her upcoming movie “Elegy.”

And the “Vanilla Sky” beauty schmoozed with fans and signed autographs at the afterparty, looking hot in a black corset-ish top with black pants and a funky black jacket.

Earlier this week, Cruz was over on the West Coast, promoting yet another new film “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” along with co-star Scarlett Johansson, with whom she shares a kiss in the movie.

But hearing Scarlett describe the moment, it doesn’t sound nearly as sexy as it came off. Johansson told press, “There were about 60 crewmen sitting around eating salami sandwiches! It’s really the least sexy thing you can ever imagine!”

Echoing the same sentiments, Penelope told FOX Pop Tarts: “We didn’t talk about it much, then Woody told us how the shot was going to be, but Scarlett and I don’t have any funny stories to tell about it. It felt [like] nothing, nothing happened.”
