Scarlett Johansson reveals reaction to her and Jonathan Bailey's viral red carpet kisses
Scarlett Johansson has joked she and Jonathan Bailey are "friendly people" after their red carpet kisses.
The Jurassic World Rebirth actress - who is married to Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost - and her co-star have shared some platonic smooches during the press tour for the newest Jurassic Park blockbuster sequel, and she has opened up on their public displays.
During an appearance on the TODAY show on Wednesday (15.06.25), host Craig Melvin said: "He's just so attractive."
Scarlett replied: "Yeah, you said it."
She quipped: "He's a lovable guy, what can I say? I don't know, we're friendly people.'
The 40-year-old star admitted she hasn't been surprised by the photos of them kissing going viral.
She laughed: "Nothing surprises me, you know what I mean? Nothing surprises me these days. But yeah, I've got a lot of love to give, what can I say?'
Jonathan, 37, came out as gay to his close friends and family in his early 20s, before making his sexuality public around 2018.
He previously admitted his sexuality had been a gradual realisation and he even dated a woman for two years in his 20s.
He told Britain's Vogue magazine last year: "It's interesting with the binary, where you're perceived to be either this or that. That's how I saw it at the time, but there are so many nuances to it.
"My experience of that relationship was not that I was in the shadows. She remains one of my best friends.
'I think other people understood my sexuality before I was even aware of it."
Jonathan has always been "confident" in public displays of affection, but admitted there have been occasions when he's been "heckled" as a result.
He said: 'I've always been a confident hand-holder in relationships.
'I had a boyfriend who wasn't experienced at holding hands in public. We got heckled in London. But that kind of behaviour is now outweighed by the smiles you get.'

Sunrise host Matt Shirvington celebrates ratings success after joining breakfast show two years ago
Following in the footsteps of beloved breakfast TV host David Koch was always going to be a big ask. But two years after joining Sunrise, Matt Shirvington has not only been embraced by viewers, he's helped push ratings even higher alongside co-host Natalie Barr. This week, Sunrise enjoyed a sizeable lead over its competitor Today, consistently beating them in a busy news week. 'It's hard to believe it's already been two years with Nat and the Sunrise team. We're so grateful our viewers continue to choose to start their mornings with us — we never take that for granted,' Shirvington said. Sunrise has averaged a national total TV audience of 415,000, up 7 per cent year-on-year, extending its lead over Today nationally. It now attracts 30 per cent more viewers, compared to a 21 per cent lead at the same point in 2024. 'The transition from David Koch to Matt Shirvington has been seamless with Natalie Barr, which comes after years of him polishing his craft in sports and news,' TV Tonight's David Knox said. 'Sunrise enjoys a massive lead over Today, this week by more than 100,000 in a week of major news events. 'That's a headache for Nine, which knows that viewers are rusted-on and don't make the switch lightly.' The show continues to do well in WA, averaging a total TV audience of 41,000 in Perth, nearly three times higher than Today, which averages 14,000. 'We love our WA viewers, and with Nat, there's always been that special connection to the west,' Shirvington said. 'We love getting over there for Telethon, and we'll both be back again this year.' The ratings race between Today and Sunrise, which have both seen line-up changes, has widened in recent years. In 2023, Sarah Abo joined long-term host Karl Stefanovic as co-host of Today, replacing Allison Langdon who moved to A Current Affair. Knox said recent missteps at Today had not helped the cause. 'I don't think a recent visit to Dubai, broadcasting in the dead of night from a five-star resort did it any favours, especially when there were floods back home,' he said.

Newlyweds Bezos and Sanchez gear up for final party
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and journalist Lauren Sanchez, flush from their Venice wedding ceremony, are gearing up for the final day of partying in the lagoon city with scores of celebrity guests from media, fashion and show business. The three-day gala, estimated to cost $US50 million ($A76 million), will culminate on Saturday evening with the closing party in a former medieval shipyard where Lady Gaga and Elton John are expected to perform. Bezos, 61, and Sanchez, 55, exchanged rings on Friday evening on the small island of San Giorgio, across the water from Saint Mark's Square, accompanied by singing from Matteo Bocelli, son of Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli. The bride at the ceremony wore a high-necked silhouette dress and a tulle and lace veil by Dolce and Gabbana, which she told magazine Vogue was based on Sophia Loren's dress to marry Cary Grant in the 1958 film Houseboat. Sanchez was also wearing a pair of diamond earrings by Dolce & Gabbana, which, according to Vogue, were lent to her in keeping with the tradition that it brings good luck for a bride to wear something borrowed. Bezos, who is No.4 on Forbes' global billionaires list, donned a black tuxedo and bow tie over a white shirt. The ceremony had no legal status under Italian law, a senior city hall official told Reuters, suggesting the couple may have already legally wed in the United States, avoiding the bureaucracy associated with an Italian marriage. Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, Orlando Bloom, Tom Brady, Jordan's Queen Rania, Oprah Winfrey, Kris Jenner and Kim and Khloe Kardashian, as well as Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner and Domenico Dolce from Dolce & Gabbana were among the 200-250 guests. While the celebrities rub shoulders in the isolated halls in the east of the city, not far away activists will be protesting at what they see as Venice being gift-wrapped for ultra-rich outsiders. A protest march is planned at 5pm on Saturday from the railway station to the Rialto Bridge. For days, members of the "No Space for Bezos" movement have been trying to spoil the party, hanging anti-Bezos banners on the iconic Rialto Bridge and laying out a huge canvas in central Saint Mark's Square telling the tech-tycoon to pay more taxes. While some residents and activists see Bezos' extravaganza as a symbol of inequality and arrogance, Venice's businesses and the city authorities have welcomed the event, claiming a major boost for the local economy. "Those who protest are in contradiction with the history of Venice, which is a history of relations, contacts and business," the city's mayor Luigi Brugnaro told Reuters in an interview. "Bezos embodies the Venetian mentality, he is more Venetian than the protesters," said the mayor, adding that he hoped Bezos, who donated 3 million euros ($A5.4 million) to local institutions, would return to the city to do business. Brugnaro said Bezos had attached no conditions to holding his wedding celebrations in Venice, and City Hall had only learned about his donations after they had already been made. Bezos, Amazon's executive chair, became engaged to Sanchez in 2023, four years after the collapse of his 25-year marriage to MacKenzie Scott.
