Scarlett Johansson Reveals The 1 ‘SNL’ Joke By Colin Jost That Made Her ‘Black Out’
The “Her” star visibly cringed while rewatching the clip and said she truly couldn’t remember it — because she “completely hit the deck” when it aired.
Scarlett Johansson can’t handle her husband’s annual joke swaps on “Saturday Night Live.”
The “Black Widow” star has been married to comedian Colin Jost for four years now and, while she enjoys watching him blindly read offensive jokes written by “Weekend Update” co-host Michael Che, one crack during the season finale in May purportedly made her “black out.”
With a smiling picture of his wife behind him, Jost bravely joked: “ChatGPT has released a new voice assistant feature inspired by Scarlett Johansson’s AI character in ‘Her,’ which I’ve never bothered to watch because without that body, what’s the point of listening?”
Johansson visibly cringed Thursday when the clip came up on “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”
“I actually don’t remember it,” she added. “As soon as the picture came up, I was like, ‘Ah!’”
The Oscar-nominated actor was understandably embarrassed by the cringe-inducing crack, but the segment itself has long become a fan-favorite of casual “SNL” viewers. The premise inherently encourages Jost and Che to write the most hilarious offensive jokes, after all.
Johansson has been a subject of this tradition before, most notably in December.
Colin Jost and Scarlet Johansson dated for several years before tying the knot in 2020.

Though the “Her” joke was arguably far less egregious, Johansson said Thursday that she “completely hit the deck” upon hearing it. She went on to note that Jost’s and Che’s jokes are “like a little gift to each other,” before reiterating just how anxious they make her.
“It is brutal,” Johansson told Clarkson. “I feel like every year it gets worse. It’s just terrible.”
