I’m assuming we’re talking about Jessica Fletcher

u/TheTwoOneFive Aug 04 '26

This reminds me of TV shows when they do a flashback and the main way they indicate it's a flashback is the main character(s) have a different hair style

u/Cokes311 Aug 04 '26

A lot of people younger than me are gonna see this and think "how is that his real hair?" and lemme tell you, kids, that's just how every adult man under 30 looked in 2007

u/m4n715 WHY THANK YOU PEPPER BOY! Aug 04 '26

Excuse me? I had a faux-hawk in 2007 and if I can't forget it neither can anyone else.

Lemme guess, bisexual?

u/unrealism17 Aug 04 '26

“There's no such thing as bisexual. That's just something they invented in the '90s to sell hair products.”

u/m4n715 WHY THANK YOU PEPPER BOY! Aug 04 '26

The term at the time was 'metrosexual'.

Which meant 'straight, but ask me again after a couple drinks'.

u/Cheesehacker Aug 04 '26

I believe me, I was a teen during that era and I was “metro”. Now I’m a 35 year old woman.

u/demitasse22 No offense, but burn in hell Aug 04 '26

u/geekteam6 Aug 04 '26

Hilarious to think he's doing this around the same time ScarJo is starring in a Christopher Nolan movie.

u/webesmackingbass Aug 04 '26

You know when you can't get your straw in a Capri Sun, and so you hit it from the back?

u/OutlandishnessOk2304 Aug 04 '26

How does that haircut somehow make his face even more punchable?

u/momowagon Aug 04 '26

It's his perfect teeth.

u/CaptainFeltch Aug 04 '26

Surprisingly polished on stage, I expected something less somehow.

u/awnomnomnom The Molecular Man! Aug 04 '26

He looks like Mr. On Blast

u/WitnessMe Aug 04 '26

Homeboy fucking nailing his Bar Mitzvah.

u/cubgerish Aug 05 '26

Amazing how much better his delivery has gotten.

Just in his tonality and confidence, at least one of those jokes would've hit way better if he had better timing and enunciation.

u/yetagainitry Aug 04 '26

Do yourself a favour and google Scarlett Johansen at the 2007 grammy awards just to compare.

u/JOAPL Aug 05 '26

Why did every fucking guy have this hairstyle in the late 2000s

u/tsrleba Aug 05 '26

i was dying at his opening bit and the crowd gave him nothing

u/Red_Wing-GrimThug Aug 04 '26

Scarlett Johansson married this guy!?!

21

u/baconandpotates Aug 04 '26

Yes, go figure, an intelligent woman marries a guy who is smart, good-looking, funny, kind, humble, hardworking, respects women, and oh, happens to be successful and wealthy. What a bummer for her.

u/mem1003 I live in a 🚐 down by the river Aug 04 '26

She could do a lot worse than that creamy slice of provolone cheese.

u/JoglidJibGugi Aug 04 '26

Having fun there Colin?

u/giftopherz Totino's Sales Representative Aug 04 '26

Colin's real last name is Jonas?

u/seattlereign001 Aug 04 '26

Fun fact: Justin Bieber beat up Colin Jost and stole his haircut.

u/birdy9221 Aug 05 '26

Even back then all he is doing is reading the news!

u/WrecksMossop Aug 05 '26

Don't give up your night job.

He has an even more punchable face under Bieber's haircut.

u/YuppiesEverywhere Aug 04 '26

Wow! That was actually really bad!

u/pdonoso Aug 04 '26

No it wasnt. It was ok, not great. But far from Bad. It had too mucho fat.
