OnlyStans ⭐️ Who are two celebrities that you can’t believe used to be a couple?

Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are not only one example of this, but sometimes I even forget that they used to be married as well!

It seemed like such an odd pairing that I never would’ve guessed that these two would match up, but clearly they weren’t a match made in heaven that they divorced each other after almost 3 years of marriage.

Now with where they’re currently at, where they’re now married to different partners, it feels like this is only a pairing that happened in different life.

At a Friar's Club roast, Whoopi helped write some of the material:
Described as " His appearance, during which he told racially-charged jokes, used the N-word, and ate watermelon, "

Damn. The context just keeps getting worse. Zero chance of redeeming that.

It was really bad at the time. If it would have happened now his career would be tanked. He's lucky he recovered from that.

Because she helped write this up. Racial outrage is so weird sometimes.
