Let’s be honest—when it comes to real-life chemistry, Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost never disappoint.
And during the epic 50th season finale of Saturday Night Live, they gave fans a little moment of magic that’s still trending online: a surprise kiss on stage that closed out the show with serious rom-com vibes.
Not only did Scarlett become the first woman to host SNL seven times, but she also shared a sweet, totally unscripted moment with her husband that had the internet in its feelings.
From Dino Drama to Date Night Energy
Before the big moment, SNL released a hilarious promo video spoofing Scarlett’s upcoming Jurassic Park film.
The sketch had her frantically running from danger—only to reveal that the “threat” was none other than her husband, Colin Jost, cheerfully pitching a kiss scene.
The absurd scene saw Scarlett slamming doors, bolting herself inside a studio, and literally yelling “No!” when Jost suggested a kiss.
Enter Sarah Sherman, who saved the day (and the comedic timing) by shooting Colin with a tranquilizer dart from the rafters.
Scarlett’s relieved reaction? “Thanks, Sarah!”
The Kiss That Broke the Internet
Fast forward to the end of the live episode, and the tables turned.
Jost, flowers in hand, finally caught up to his wife on stage—and sealed the night with a sweet kiss.
The crowd melted, and so did social media.
Fans couldn’t get enough of the chemistry between the couple.
One person tweeted, “Omg, I’m in tears, Scarlett Johansson & Colin Jost on SNL,” while another wrote, “Power couple energy on full display.”
Others commented on how genuinely in love the two seem: “I hate how I can tell how deep in love they are just by this kiss.”
Another fan summed it up best: “He’s not just the Weekend Update guy, he’s the lead in a real-life rom-com.”
