\n\t\u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d stars Colin Jost<\/a> and Michael Che<\/a> continued their yearly Christmas tradition of writing horribly offensive jokes for the other person to tell on Weekend Update. Except this year, Che lied to Jost that they weren\u2019t doing their annual swap but still prepared his own \u2014 so Jost was the only one reading out jokes, much to Che and the audience\u2019s delight.<\/p>\n

\n\tChe did not hold back for Jost once again, one year after he made his co-host tell some harsh jokes about Jost\u2019s wife Scarlett Johansson, who was backstage watching.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cCritics say a new series of coins from the U.S. Mint celebrating great moments in the country\u2019s history ignore civil rights. But what about the coin that celebrates where Black people actually come from \u2014 ships,\u201d Jost began reading reluctantly as Che laughed at his joke.<\/p>\n

\n\tJost continued: \u201cThe archdiocese of New York will set up a fund for victims of church sexual abuse. Yet I get nothing for keeping my mouth shut and taking it like a champ?\u201d The audience gasped and laughed as Jost read his final prepared joke, while Che said Jost should\u2019ve written some for him.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cNew research shows that millions of women leave the work force due to menopause. Which means there\u2019s only a couple years left on my gravy train,\u201d a photo of Johansson flashed on the screen as Jost grimaced. \u201cMy girl already be like, \u2018Colin, I\u2019m warm. Colin, I\u2019m sweating.\u2019 Bitch, you having a hot flash.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBut don\u2019t worry about me, I got a backup. They don\u2019t call Wednesday hump day for nothing,\u201d Jost finished, as a photo of Jenna Ortega\u2019s Netflix character Wednesday Addams popped on screen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d stars Colin Jost and Michael Che continued their yearly Christmas tradition of writing horribly offensive…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":359498,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,28367,75,28370,31981,34566],"class_list":["post-359497","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-colin-jost","tag-entertainment","tag-michael-che","tag-scarlett-johansson","tag-snl"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/359497","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=359497"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/359497\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/359498"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=359497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=359497"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=359497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
