As per tradition, Michael Che and Colin Jost marked Saturday Night Live’s final episode of 2024 with their signature “joke swap.” This year’s installment was particularly epic, as not only did Che have Jost read jokes in “Black voice,” but Jost’s wife, Scarlett Johansson, was also in attendance. As Jost was made to tell jokes at the expense of his wife, SNL cameras cut to Johansson watching backstage. Che didn’t escape unscathed, though; he was forced to vouch for Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Johansson was one of several celebrity guests who turned out for SNL’s Christmas episode to celebrate host Martin Short joining the Five-Timers Club. The episode also featured appearances from Tom Hanks, Paul Rudd, Melissa McCarthy, Tina Fey, John Mulaney, Alec Baldwin, Emma Stone, Kristen Wiig, Jimmy Fallon, and Dana Carvey.
