Scarlett Johansson has admitted how much she dreads her husband Colin Jost and his Weekend Update co-host Michael Che‘s popular Joke Swap segment, in which each gets to read jokes written by the other, sight unseen.
Once again, Jost was made to do jokes about Johansson — and this time, viewers could see her reaction from backstage. (Jonansson was one of several members of Saturday Night Live‘s Five-Timers club who showed up in the Cold Open to initiate tonight’s host Martin Short.)
Jost and Che traditionally humiliate each other in the segment but they took that to the next level this time with a slew of highly inappropriate jokes as Jost was forced to read his “in a Black voice,” starting with a slavery reparations dig.
The audience — and Jost — knew a Johansson joke is coming, and when her photo appeared, it was greeted by a mix of cheers and groans by the audience and a “why?!” by Jost. Dedicating the line “to my boo, Scarlett Johannson,” he noted that she just celebrated her 40th birthday, “which means I’m about to get up outta there!”
There was more.
“We just had a kid together, and y’all ain’t seen no pictures of him yet — because he Black as hell!”
