Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost made their first appearance as a couple just in time for the holiday season. While they have been rumored to be a couple for a few months now, they have neither confirmed nor denied their dating status, choosing instead to be captured in early morning paparazzi photographs. But with the annual American Museum of Natural History Gala in New York, Scarlett and Colin are now a public item.
The 33-year-old actress has had a full year already, having divorced her husband, settled her baby daughter’s custody, and stirred up a whitewashing controversy surrounding Ghost in the Shell . But it looks like she is determined to go out with a bang with one last headline that is sure to make her fans very excited.
The Avengers actress and SNL “Weekend Update” host made their relationship public at the annual American Museum of Natural History Gala in New York. Right after Thanksgiving and just before December, the pair confirmed the previous rumors that they are getting serious.
