Former smoker Scarlett Johansson revealed a personal secret that she hopes her children, Rose Dauriac (7) and seven-month-old Cosmo Jost, never discover. She expressed her desire for them to remain unaware, saying, “So yeah, I just hope she never figures that out.” The acclaimed actress, who has been nominated for five Golden Globe awards, humorously commented on how parents often prohibit their children from doing things they themselves engage in. During an interview with Barrymore, Johansson also discussed her greatest irrationality and when she feels the most competitive.
In her recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, the talented Black Widow actress, aged 37, opened up about her youthful habits, revealing her embarrassment about her past smoking tendencies, which began when she was seen as a teenager.
The famous actress, Lucy, confessed that her own daughter may have inquired about her past smoking habits. Reminiscing about her younger days, she expressed deep shame over her former addiction. Lucy emphasized her desire for her daughter to never perceive smoking as “cool,” as she firmly believes that her child should never, under any circumstances, engage in this harmful habit.
Relatable: She followed up by saying, ‘So yeah, I really hope she never realizes that’
In addition to confessing her previous fear of never working again after completing a project, the film Marriage Story provided a rare glimpse into her domestic life with Colin Jost.
The mother of two disclosed that she becomes competitive when it comes to playing Backgammon with the 39-year-old SNL star, who, annoyingly, wins every time.
‘The moment before he rolls a series of doubles,’ she pondered, before mentioning that he also plays on his phone, where he discovers new techniques to become even better.
Throwback moment: Drew decided to share a photo featured in the SNL episode featuring Colin’s old yearbook, displaying his distinctive “mushroom” haircut and his choice of a plaid collared shirt.
‘No way,’ Scarlett quickly responded when asked if she and Jost would have dated as teenagers. She couldn’t get past the fact that her brother had the same haircut as him. She questioned who thought that haircut would be stylish, wondering what hairstylist would say, “Let’s try this.”
During the episode, Johansson admitted that even though she found Jost attractive, they probably wouldn’t have dated in high school after seeing his hilarious yearbook photo.
When shown a picture of Jost as a teen with a “mushroom” haircut, Barrymore asked Johansson if her high school self would have been into high school Jost.
‘No way,’ Scarlett quickly answered. ‘Firstly, my brother had that same haircut … I just can’t. There’s no way I mean who decided on that cut as a stylish thing, like what hairdresser was like I’ll try this.’
“I mean, he’s really attractive, but during my previous visits, I was already committed to someone else…this time, the circumstances aligned perfectly,” she expressed. “I believe he appeared differently to me because I was free, and everything just fell into place at the right moment.”
“I believe that I have definitely been in relationships where the timing was not right, even though the person was good. It is important to be open to that as well,” she commented. Scarlet and Colin initially met in 2006 when she appeared on SNL, but their connection deepened when she returned to host in 2017. “He is an adorable guy, but during my previous visits, I was already in another relationship… this time, the timing was right,” she shared. “I think he saw me differently because I was available; timing just has to be right.” She was previously married to Ryan Reynolds from 2008 until their divorce in 2011, and Romaiv Dauriac from 2014 to 2017. Johansson and Dauriac co-parent their daughter, Rose.
