Colin Jost revealed he was scared of marriage before getting engaged to Scarlett Johansson during a performance for celiac research at Guild Hall in the Hamptons.
The Saturday Night Live star, 36, joked about living in the lavish community and having a house by Billy Joel. When audience members noticed his ring, he switched gears and opened up about his love life.
“I was so scared of marriage for so long because every time I talked to someone who just got married, or was about to get married, is like, ‘Oh my God, you got to do it…What could go wrong?'” he joked, according to Page Six.
“Then you talk to someone who’s been married for five years, and they’re like, ‘Don’t rush into it … you have your whole life ahead of you," he added. "Don’t have kids. They’re the worst.’”
