Scarlett Johansson Hints She Will 'Burn' Michael Che 'Back' After Roast Beef SNL Joke: 'Retaliation Should Be Expected'

Scarlett Johansson hinted she will "burn" Michael Che "back" after his roast beef 'Saturday Night Live' joke and that "retaliation should be expected" when she returns to host the NBC late night show on May 17.

During the Weekend Update segment on the show's winter finale — during which the cohosts swapped jokes they had written for each other but never seen before — Jost said that “Costco has removed their roast beef sandwich from their menu,” adding, “But I ain’t tripping, I be eating roast beef every night since my wife had the kid.” He then lowered his face in his hands in apparent horror while Johansson, with whom he shares 3-year-old son Cosmo, appeared shocked, mouthing, “Oh my God,” from backstage. The fact that it took on a full To Catch a Predator-style reveal or whatever ... All of a sudden, it was like a whole bunch of people holding up lights, and a guy with a video camera."
