Scarlett Johansson received the “Generation Award” at the “MTV Movie & TV Awards” and was given a slime shower by her husband.
Actress Scarlett Johansson (36) received the “Generation Award” virtually on Sunday evening at the “MTV Movie & TV Awards”. But during her acceptance speech there was a nasty surprise for the 36-year-old: her husband, comedian Colin Jost (38), suddenly doused her with green slime. “What the hell?” Reacted the shocked Johansson, supposedly annoyed, to her partner.
“You just got sucked,” the “Saturday Night Live” actor told his wife. However, she quickly pointed out his mistake: “This is Nickelodeon.” The winners of the “Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards” are traditionally doused with green slime during their acceptance speeches. It is not known whether Jost was actually wrong about the station or whether his mistake was purely intentional.
She was the third woman to receive the “Generation Award”
After Sandra Bullock (56) and Reese Witherspoon (45), Johansson is only the third actress to receive the “Generation Award”. In recent years, Dwayne Johnson (49), Chris Pratt (41) and Will Smith (52) have received such an award.
