Scarlett Johansson And Colin Jost’s Relationship Timeline
Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost are now officially married. The Meals on Wheels America Instagram account announced that the couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony over the weekend. Prior to getting hitched, they ruled 2020 awards season red carpets from the Golden Globes to the Oscars. But how did their relationship begin? Thank Saturday Night Live, for which Jost is a head writer and host of “Weekend Update.” Below, relive their entire romantic history, from comedic meet-cute to A-list PDA.
2006/2010
Jost and Johansson have conflicting stories about when they first met. Jost recalled meeting Johansson when she hosted SNL in January 2006. “The first time she hosted was the first year I was a writer on the show,” he told Entertainment Tonight. “So, we’ve kind of known each other since then…she’s the best.” (Per People, Johansson split with Josh Hartnett in November of that year.)
Jost recounted his first meeting with Johansson in his memoir, A Very Punchable Face and described his first impression of her as “beautiful, smart, sweet and intimidatingly sophisticated.” He went on to write, per E! News, “She has just turned 20 and I was 23, but in terms of status and maturing she was here [holds hand above head] and I was here [ holds hand one inch off ground]. She claims that she remembers thinking I was ‘cute,’ but I know what I looked like and that’s not the word I would have used. (‘Shaggy’ would have been generous. ‘Slovenly,’ more accurate).”
He also praised Johansson for having “a grace and a smile that I’ve still never seen in any other human.” Jost even jokingly wrote about the dialogue he penned for his future wife-to-be in a My Sweet Sixteen sketch. “The only line I remember from the sketch is when Scarlett’s bratty character says, ‘This party is literally worse than the Holocaust.’ That was my Shakespearean sonnet for the woman I would one day fall in love with,” Jost recalled, per E!.
Johansson’s first impression of her future husband came in 2010 from that 16 and Pregnant-themed sketch during her hosting gig. “It was some dumb parody that he had written, and he was in there partly directing this segment we had to do,” she told The Hollywood Reporter. “That’s my first memory of him. He seemed very confident at the time. I don’t know if he felt that way, but in that environment, if you’re not confident as a writer, your stuff just never gets produced.”

Between the two hosting gigs, Johansson married Ryan Reynolds. The pair divorced in December 2010 after more than two years of marriage.

Fred Couples claims he will never speak to Phil Mickelson again over LIV Golf switch
Golf legend Fred Couples has fired a shot at Phil Mickelson and insisted he will never speak to the icon again after he left the PGA Tour for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series.
The highly-anticipated LIV Golf series made its debut at The Centurion Club in St Albans last month, with the likes of Dustin Johnson, Lee Westwood, and Sergio Garcia joining Mickelson in headlining a mixed field in terms of big name pull and talent. Charl Schwartzel, the 2011 Masters champion, secured a one-stroke victory and a £3.86 million payout – more than the £2.56 million awarded to Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick for securing the coveted US Open title last month.
The second LIV Golf event is underway in Portland, Oregon and the field showcases nine of the last 21 major winners, four former World No. 1 players and nearly half of the field currently ranked in the top 100. Mickelson exiled himself away from golf after his comments regarding the Saudi regime and their human rights record, but emerged to still join LIV Golf ahead of its inaugural event outside London.

Couples, who is captaining the US squad at the Icons Series in New Jersey this week, admitted he is ‘disappointed’ to see players join LIV Golf as the Saudi Arabian government is bankrolling the series, and they have all been essentially muzzled. The former Masters champion is particularly disappointed in six-time major champion Mickelson.
“I don’t think I’ll ever talk to him again,” Couples told Golf.com. “What for? I’m not in the same boat as him anymore, and probably never will play golf with him again.
“I’m not saying that to be mean. We’re just in different orbits.”

When pressed on his comments regarding the ‘muzzling’ of the LIV Golf recruits, Couples added: “These guys – you’ve seen their interviews, right? Have you ever seen Phil look so stupid in his life?
“They know it’s a joke. They’re all saying they want to change golf; they’re doing it for the better of golf.”

Mickelson is perhaps the leading name among a group of high-profile players to have ditched the PGA Tour to join the LIV series, as names including Johnson, Kevin Na and Brooks Koepka have followed suits. Each player to have defected has been banned by the PGA Tour.

Do you think LIV Golf is here to stay as a long-term rival to the PGA Tour? Let us know in the comments section.
Couples believe his family would ‘disown’ him if he left the PGA Tour to join the controversial new series. He declared: “I think this is a family thing for me.’
It was light years from Tour golf, writes Morning Read’s Dan O’Neill, but so what? Watching Woods play alongside his 12-year-old son and set a tournament record for consecutive birdies was a sight to see.
DAN O’NEILLDEC 19, 2021
Let’s be honest, this was competitive golf only in the way frozen pizza is gourmet pizza.
Pars were bogeys, birdies were pars, carts were common and giggles were plentiful. But when you’ve been living in abstinence, you take what you can get. Pizza is pizza, period.
So seeing red, watching Tiger Woods come down the backside on Sunday, in contention — 10 months after that terrible crash — was a little bit o’ heaven. Didn’t matter that his 12-year old son was playing alongside, in fact it added to it. Didn’t matter that it was a co-ed scramble, it was a sight many weren’t sure they might see again, in any form.
So it was special, and it was presented accordingly. Thus, it seems only a matter of time before Woods contends in a major. At least, Charlie Woods.
And as the two Woods strung together 11 consecutive birdies and climbed the PNC Championship leaderboard, it was hard to say who was more impressive — Tiger or Tiger Cub.
“Yeah, we had a little run there,” the elder Woods said. “It was nice; it was fun. When we played the turn, I told Charlie, I said. ‘We’re going to have to at least birdie out, at least make eight out of the nine on the back nine to have a chance.’
“And we got on a nice heater, and … we made 11 in a row, and on the last hole, we probably — we knew on the tee box that we needed (eagle) to probably get into a playoff or at least make it interesting … Unfortunately, we didn’t chip-in and we didn’t make the putts, either.”
“But it was fun. The goals this week, two things: One, to have fun; and two, no bogeys, and we accomplished both.”
The key word, repeated often, was “fun.” Before anyone gets too carried away with Masters wishes and U.S. Open dreams, let’s keep the lid. This was frozen pizza. “I’m just really tired,” Woods, who turns 46 on Dec. 30, said on TV after the round. “I mean, I’m not used to this. This was my … fourth or fifth round of golf this year? I’m a little worn out and it was nice to have a cart.”
That said, a funny thing happened during this Woods Family Festival, a twist in the plot. Tiger and Charlie Woods hogged the spotlight, to be sure. That was understandable.
But in the end, lest we forget, it’s Christmas time. And in the end, 11 straight Wood birdies and a final-round 57 wasn’t good enough. In the end, sunny Florida backdrop and crazy-looking pants notwithstanding, Santa and his elf stole the show.
Santa, being John Daly, that is. Daly looks the part, with a Kris Kringle-style beard and an ample belly. On the night before the tournament, all through the pre-championship dinner, not a creature could keep from stirring — and laughing — at the sight of Daly dressed in a St. Nick suit. Miracle on 34th Street eat your heart out.

On Sunday, Daly and his son — 18-year old University of Arkansas freshman John Daly II — reminded all the good girls and boys that the Claus family still carries a few tricks in the bag, along with presents and stuff. The Dalys combined for their own final-round 57 and a record low 36-hole score of 27 under par to capture the championship.
Ho, ho, ho. Santa was most merry about the play of his namesake elf: “With the holidays everything and, just playing golf with my son every day when I can, is just awesome,” Daly said. “To watch him grow up to do the things he could do with a golf ball and a swing that’s so perfect … saving my you-know-what from (bad) putting yesterday.
Jennifer Aniston ‘s 50th birthday party almost broke the Internet this month when her ex-husband Brad Pitt was spotted sneaking into the bash.
The actress invited all her famous friends to help her celebrate the milestone at a swanky event in Los Angeles.
However, no one was prepared to see her ex rock up and sneak into the party at the Sunset Tower Hotel.
It’s been 14 years since Brad divorced Jen and ditched her for his next wife, Angelina Jolie , and it has since emerged that the pair have put the bad blood behind them.
They are said to have reconnected in the aftermath of Brad’s split from Angelina in 2016, with secret meetings and long phone calls.
A source told Grazia magazine: “Brad and Jen have exchanged messages over email for years… For birthdays or special events…
“That changed when Brad split from Angelina.”

Brad Pitt’s friends give real reason behind Jennifer Aniston’s 50th party invite
Jen is said to have supported him after his marriage broke down and he then offered her advice when she split from second husband Justin Theroux last year.
The source added: “It was in the summer of last year that Brad and Jen really reconnected, having both been through really difficult times in their relationships.
“They’ve had long phone conversations and have met up privately at least once in the past year, but it’s all been kept hush-hush.”
They are on good terms and Jen reportedly decided to invite Brad to her party because he means a lot to her – even if their marriage didn’t work out.

Jennifer Aniston’s ex Justin Theroux calls her ‘fierce and loving’ in birthday message
Multiple sources report that the actress was thrilled that Brad made it to her birthday party, especially as it was such a public gesture of friendship between them.
However, Brad is said to have been in two minds about going to the bash as he wasn’t sure if he could get in and out without being spotted.
A source told heat magazine: “He… was unsure whether to go or not…
“In the end, he didn’t care, he just had his driver drop him off at the front door.”

Jennifer Aniston got ‘secret 50th birthday gift’ from Brad Pitt before he went to her party
He also reportedly got his ex a present and sent it to her in secret ahead of the party.
The pair were married from 2000 until 2005 and Brad went on to tie the knot with his Mr and Mrs Smith co-star Angelina, before divorcing her too.
After her doomed marriage to Brad, Jen tied the knot again in 2015 when she wed Justin Theroux.
However, that didn’t last either and they split in 2017. The former couple’s divorce is expected to be finalised this year.
They also appeared to have stayed on good terms after the break-up as he sent her a sweet happy birthday message via Instagram .
