On Saturday Night Live, Scarlett Johansson’s husband took part in an annual event. The comedian and his colleague Michael Che write jokes that are borderline offensive so that their opponent can read them live on air. This time, Colin Jost had to say the strangest words to his wife.
First, the artist commented on the news that a famous burger chain had removed roast beef from its menu. Then he turned to his wife. “I want to dedicate the next joke to my beloved, Scarlett Johansson ,” Colin said.
At that moment, the camera captured the actress standing backstage near the New Year tree. She smiled, expecting to hear any provocation. However, what Colin said the next second shocked her.
Jost was extremely embarrassed, but he was forced to read what was written. “But roast beef has been on my menu every night since my wife had a baby,” the comedian said.
Scarlett couldn’t contain her emotions. She barely audibly whispered: “Oh my God!” The movie star couldn’t even imagine that her husband would get a “joke” of such a level of vulgarity.
The show’s viewers and Johansson’s fans are hotly discussing what happened. “This joke should be followed by a divorce”, “Colin is moving to the first floor”, “No, this is not funny at all, it’s outrageous”, “Scarlett’s face literally expressed everything”, “Colin himself was shocked, he didn’t know that this would happen”, “The author of the “brilliant” joke, you should be fired”, “They’ve gone too far”, the bloggers said.
The 14-time Emmy nominee is Scarlett’s third husband. Their union produced a son, Cosmo, who is now three years old. The actress was previously married to Ryan Reynolds and French journalist Romain Dauriac. From her second marriage, Johansson is raising a nine-year-old daughter, Rose.
