Scarlett Johansson poked fun at Sen. Katie Britt during this week’s “Saturday Night Live” cold open, parodying the Republican’s response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address. In a Thursday-night speech from her kitchen, the real-life Britt lambasted Biden over a border crisis she said he “invited” and a country she said was more dangerous than it was four years ago.
“This Affinity Diamond necklace goes with anything, and you can wear it from da church to da club,” Johansson said. The actor continued, saying “the American Dream has turned into a nightmare.” Toward the end, Johansson re-created a scene from the movie “Get Out” in which white actor Catherine Keener scrapes a spoon across her teacup to hypnotize a Black character played by Daniel Kaluuya.
