Colin Jost Went Dumpster Diving for Scarlett Johansson’s Lost Ring

Now this is a marriage story about Scarlett Johansson.

Colin Jost said he once went dumpster diving across New York City when the Black Widow star—who he married in 2020—lost her engagement ring.  

“My wife actually lost her engagement ring,” he shared while hosting a season one episode of Pop Culture Jeopardy!, explaining that Scarlett thought she “accidentally threw it in the trash.”

The comedian continued, “I looked through 12 dumpsters of trash.”

But his efforts were of no avail, forcing him to return home empty-handed.

“I went back to the house and she said, ‘Oops! It was in my pocket,'” Colin quipped. “It was a great day for me.” 

This wasn’t the first time the 42-year-old cracked a joke about his relationship with Scarlett, with whom he shares 3-year-old son Cosmo. (Scarlett, 40, is also mom to daughter Rose, 10, from her past marriage to Romain Dauriac.)
