Colin Jost finally got his revenge on Michael Che after his vulgar joke about Scarlett Johansson back in December.
“You know, before I tell another joke, I want to take this opportunity to apologize to someone I hurt,” Che said, before inviting Johansson on stage.
“You know, last time we did Joke Swap, I made Colin do some tasteless jokes comparing your vagina to Costco roast beef,” Che told her.
Because I once spent the summer on a farm.” Che confessed: “Maybe I’m just embarrassed about my own body.
And, like, old-school gross.” While the actor said she had been warned that a “vagina joke” was going to be made, she didn’t realize it was going to be at her expense.
Following Michael Che’s offensive remark about Scarlett Johansson in December, Colin Jost finally exacted revenge on him.
During the “Weekend Update” joke swap segment on Saturday Night Live, where the two comedians read out lines that have been written for each other to say, Che brought out Johansson, this week’s host and Jost’s wife.
Before inviting Johansson to the stage, Che said, “You know, before I tell another joke, I want to take this opportunity to apologize to someone I hurt.”.
Che informed her, “You know, the last time we did Joke Swap, I made Colin make some crude jokes about how your vagina is like Costco roast beef.”.
He went on with his phony apology, saying, “The truth is, I was just acting out because I’m jealous.”. I’ve never even laid eyes on a human vagina. Note that I mentioned “human.”. Because I was on a farm for a summer once. “.”.
“Maybe I’m just embarrassed about my own body,” Che admitted. I have so many nipples that I can’t even remove my hoodie during intercourse. “”.
“Yes, I have heard that about you,” Johansson said. “.”.
Jost was forced to read a number of jokes directed at Johannson’s age, their child, and their sexual life during the December holiday edition of Saturday Night Live.
The segment’s final joke was the most savage. Jost started off by saying, “I’m not tripping, but Costco has taken the roast beef sandwich off their menu.”. I have been eating roast beef every night ever since my wife gave birth. “”.
The cameras cut to Johannson, who was in utter disbelief as he watched from a screen backstage. “Oh my god!” she exclaimed, laughing. “Holy sh*t. “.”.
“Naw, I’m just playing, baby,” Jost said, concluding the gag. I don’t go downtown, you know that. “.”.
In a March interview with InStyle, Johannson reflected on the shocking incident, saying: “It was so vulgar.”. It’s simply unbelievable that they went there. It was so disgusting, I thought. It was truly disgusting. It’s also kind of old-fashioned. “.”.
The actor claimed that although she had been informed that a “vagina joke” would be made, she was unaware that it would be directed at her.
“When the Costco photo appeared, I was like, ‘No! No, Michael!'” she recalled. “I mean, it’s a vaginal joke, how bad could it be?
They awaited my response. Johannson continued, “I felt crazy about the backstage cameras.”. I thought I might pass out. “.”.
“It was really intense that it took on a full To Catch a Predator-style reveal or whatever,” she added. It seemed like a group of people holding up lights and a man with a video camera appeared out of nowhere. “.”.
Since 2020, Johansson has been wed to Jost. Cosmo, the couple’s son, is three years old.
