Saturday Night Live host Colin Jost has recently revealed his wife Scarlett Johansson's reaction to his jokes about her on the show.

For the unversed, Colin and his co-host Michael Che made a series of R-rated jokes about Scarlett during the Christmas episode of SNL on December 21, 2024.

During his conversation on The Tonight Show, Colin admitted that Scarlett, famed for her roles in Marvel Cinematic Universe as Black Widow, was shocked when the jokes aired.

Colin said, "I’m in trouble, I think, with a lot of people. Scarlett was genuinely so shocked," when host Jimmy Fallon asked him referring to SNL joke.

He went on to add that the SNL team had asked Scarlett beforehand if she would be ok to jokes involving her.

"They were like, ‘Hey, would you be okay if Michael made a little, like, kind of vagina joke at some point?’ She was like, ‘Sure, whatever, I’m open to it.’ I didn’t know where it was going," Colin said.

The comedian and writer recalled, "Scarlett was backstage like, ‘Oh my god, that’s what it is!’ I can’t act that well."

It is worth mentioning that the beloved couple Scarlett and Colin tied the knot in 2020 and they share a 3-year-old son, Cosmo together. Scarlett Johansson has often praised her husband in interviews.
