Scarlett Johansson was left fuming when her emotional speech at the Women's March was cut short after she mentioned Ivanka Trump.

The Hollywood actress was at the height of her speech asking listeners to support clinics such as Planned Parenthood when music started playing and her mic was turned off on Saturday.

She was visibly annoyed that her impassioned plea was cut off after she requested Trump to offer her daughter the same 'privileges' that were available to Ivanka Trump while she was growing up.



Johansson was seven minutes into her speech when music started playing and her microphone was promptly cut off.

The 32-year-old gave a wry laugh to the audience and turned around to give a  half-hearted smile to where the music was coming from.



She looked back to the crowd to wait for the sound to subdue but when she realized her microphone was muted, she shrugged with her hands up and backed away from the podium.

A friend waiting for Johansson seemed to say to the star, 'what just happened?'.



She later looks annoyed as she flips through note cards of her speech on the side of the stage.



In the mother-of-one's plea to Trump, she asked the president to support her daughter in allowing her the same privileges Ivanka Trump had during her youth.



Johansson said: 'Support my daughter, who may actually as a result of the appointments you have made, grow up in a country that is moving backwards, not forwards, and potentially may not.'



During her speech, the actress said that she didn't vote for Trump but she wanted to be able to support the president. The only way for her to do that is if he supported women's rights.



She said: 'President Trump, I did not vote for you. That said, I respect that you are our president-elect and I want to be able to support you. First, I ask that you support me.'
