During the SNL Season 49 finale, which aired back in May, Colin read out a joke about Johansson, whom he’s been married to since 2020.
The pair are parents to a little boy named Cosmo, while Johansson also has a child from a previous relationship.

Colin laughed as he read aloud, “Oh God... 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.”

Well, during a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Johansson described the joke as “tame” compared to some of the others that Colin and Michael make.

“That’s like a tame version if you guys have ever seen the joke swap,” Johansson said.
She continued, “I black out for that period of the night. I actually don’t remember it. As soon as the picture came up, I was like, ‘AHHH.’”

“It is brutal. It is brutal. I feel like every year, it gets worse… It’s just terrible. It’s painful,” she added. “They do it at Christmas, too. It’s like a little gift to each other.”
