I wonder how much Scarjo got paid to sit there and pretend to not laugh.

Hosts are only paid 5000, I guess it's more about the honor/exposure.

Or just doing something fun with her spouse.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was pro bono.

She charged Disney tens of millions for those marvel movies, but she only got like $35k for filming asteroid city in Spain, which was probably enough to cover a few months of international travel and lodging for a celeb. She likes Wes Anderson and was more interested in working with him than making money.

She's married to Colin Jost and this was his last night doing weekend update, so I suspect she wanted to be there.

Has that been confirmed? Seems like this is still rumormill stuff.

You're right, I had heard that he was leaving, but can't find a source.

This was the best moment of the show. I'm gonna miss Michael Che

I don't like when they do it. More generally I don't like their chemistry.
