Colin Jost Says Scarlett Johansson Took His $280K Ferry Purchase in Stride

Colin Jost said his wife Scarlett Johansson 'sees the value' in the $280,000 Staten Island Ferry he bought with Pete Davidson in 2022

Speaking to People in an interview posted Friday, September 13, Jost, 42, quipped that the ferry “is absolutely the dumbest and least thought-through purchase I’ve ever made in my life … The way I justified it is for the amount of money we were putting into buying it, on just a basic square-footage level, is if you found the right place for it to be, you were essentially buying a building on its side that’s 65,000 square feet. The Golden Globe nominee and the Saturday Night Live star were first spotted together in May 2017 at an afterparty celebrating the NBC variety show’s season 42 finale. (Jost did speak to the outlet from the ferry, which was hosting a Tommy Hilfiger show on board during New York Fashion Week.)
