Scarlett Johansson ‘blacked out’ when she heard Colin Jost’s ‘SNL’ joke about her body: ‘Brutal’

Scarlett Johansson “blacked out” when she saw a photo of herself pop up on “Saturday Night Live” during husband Colin Jost’s annual joke swap segment on Weekend Update in May.“That’s like a tame version if you guys have ever seen the jokes,” Johansson told Kelly Clarkson on Thursday’s episode of her talk show. “As soon as they showed my picture, I — I actually don’t remember that segment.

I fully blacked out.”Like every “SNL” season finale, Jost, 42, and co-host Michael Che made each other say jokes they wrote for each other without ever reading them beforehand.

Naturally, Che, 41, got Jost to tease the “Avengers” actress, which has become somewhat of a tradition. “ChatGPT has released a new voice assistant feature inspired by Scarlett Johansson’s AI character in ‘Her,’” Jost began during the show at the time. “Which I’ve never bothered to watch, because without that body, what’s the point of listening?”Johansson, 39, told Clarkson, 42: “We need to, like, go into witness protection that night.

Like, I am absolutely terrified we’re gonna be like, targeted. It’s so bad.”“It is brutal,” she admitted. “I feel like every year it gets worse.”Last year, she revealed to Clarkson that Jost sometimes tries his jokes out on her first.
