The comedians of SNL may be good at getting their jabs in, but Scarlett Johansson is getting the last laugh.
During this weekend's "Weekend Update" segment, Johansson got sweet revenge on comedian Michael Ché, who co-anchored the segment with Johansson's husband Colin Jost.
The segment often features a bit in which Jost and Ché swap jokes they've never seen before that they've written for each other, and one of the Ché-written jokes back in December was a doozie.
It involved a horrified Jost comparing his wife Johannson's, uh, lady bits to Costco roast beefâwhile she watched backstage.
So Johansson had Ché deliver an "apology" on-air, one that left him squirming nearly as much as Jost back in December.
The apology skewered Ché right back. He said:
âThe fact is, I was just lashing out because Iâm jealous. Iâve never ever seen a human vagina. And notice I said âhumanâ because I once spent the summer on a farm.â
Ché was forced to then lampoon his own body.
âMaybe Iâm just embarrassed about my own body. I canât even take my hoodie off during sex because I have more nipples than a pregnant dog.â
And to finally confess his undying love to Jost, a long-running joke on the show.
"Iâve told thousands of jokes on âUpdateâ and gotten dozens of laughs, but Iâve never said the three most important words of all: I love you.â
Johansson teased her revenge in a recent Vanity Fair interview, telling the mag:
âI feel like itâs almost my responsibility to come up with some way to burn Michael back. Retaliation, Iâd say, should be expected.â
Judging from the way Ché cringed through the thing, it seems like that mission was definitely accomplished.
On social media, fans loved Johansson's witty bit of retribution.
Note to self: Never cross Scarlett Johansson.
