Here's more entertainment and celebrity news for March 15th. Zoe Saldanya has taken over as the highest grossing actress ever, passing Scarlett Johansson with box office totals from the latest Avatar movie, hitting $16.8 billion worldwide. Scarlett held the top spot at $16.4 billion before that. Colin Jost, Scarlett's husband, addressed it first on Saturday Night Live back in January. On a recent episode, Jost's co-anchor, Michael Che, took a jab at the couple, during Weekend Update, joking that Scarlett won a husband-carrying contest.

Colin fired back, saying they both bring home the bacon, just different kinds. Fans and Scarlet herself reacted strongly to these bits. She called one past joke vulgar and gross in an interview. Colin later said on late-night TV that Scarlett was truly shocked by the humor. This spits a long pattern of joke swaps on the show, where Jost and she write crude lines for each other. They've targeted Scarlett's looks, their family, and even food, comparisons over the years. In the season 50 finale this past May, they kept it going with more personal roasts, showing their friendship thrives on the edgy banter. This episode is supported
