If the task is to catch the crowd’s attention, who better to invite than Scarlett Johansson? She is used to having eyes on her because of her talent as an actress and her stunning looks. She is one who can easily keep the attention of the people and she knows it. She has been a part of some of the biggest movies with a role as iconic as that of Black Widow.
Despite the fame the actress holds, she had an unexpected incident. She never expected someone to take her spotlight the way one particular individual did. She was not upset about it though, she was just as giddy as the rest of them. On the set of Asteroid City, her co-stars were more eager to see her baby than Johansson.
Scarlett Johansson’s Spotlight Was Stolen By Her Son
When Scarlett Johansson was on the set of Asteroid City, her son Cosmo was a mere baby. She was on the set with her husband Colin Jost and her then-newborn son. All the attention went from her to her baby. Everyone wanted to interact with her son instead of the actress and would go out of their way to meet up with Cosmo.
“People were excited to see the baby, not me. They’re like, ‘Oh, it’s you. Where’s baby?'”
Johansson was rather shocked to see this and amusingly complained about how they weren’t even fond of seeing her. In instances where her baby would not be present, they would still be looking out for him and keep asking about him. He became the popular one amongst the crowd and was easily a crowd-pleaser. She was there with her entire family, as were many other co-stars. However, her son was the youngest one there and everyone wanted to meet him and get to know him more.
The Meaning Behind Scarlett Johansson’s Son’s Name
Scarlett Johansson has two children, Cosmo and Rose. While her daughter is much older than her son, many found it rather confusing as to what her son’s name meant. The actress did not mind explaining that either. Both of her children are named after flowers and she loves that idea.
“They are both flowers,” Johansson explained. “Not a lot of people make that connection. Cosmo is a really sweet little flower that comes in different shades of orange and yellow.”
While everyone agreed to the name, Colin Jost’s mother wasn’t as keen. It took her a lot of time to convince her mother-in-law about the name and she eventually did settle.
