This week, a photo of Grandma Geraldine in 1967 has gone viral thanks to her grandson, Reddit user Denverjoel. Joel posted the photo
on the forum a little over a week ago, noting that he couldn't help but compare his young grandmother (who was 22 at the time the photo was
taken) to Scarlett Johansson.
When
Joel mentioned this to his grandmother, she scoffed at the comparison.
Rather, she couldn't stop laughing at the fact that she was "drunk as a
skunk" in the picture beside her husband of 54 years (who unfortunately
passed away a year ago).
Johansson
shared a video not only admitting the uncanny similarities but also
inviting both 25-year-old Joel and his 72-year-old grandmother to the
premiere of her latest movie Rough Night.
"I
have been inundated with e-mails and messages about how much we look
alike, so I had to look at the photo myself. Holy crap!" she gasped. "I
want to meet you in person. I saw that you were quote 'drunk as a skunk'
when taking that photo, and I would like to see your drunk face. I want
to share a drunk face with you. Let's have a drink, Geraldine."
She continued, "I'm going to invite you to...Do you want to come to see Rough Night
with me? Be my guest? We're a bunch of partying girls, so it's a good
running theme, and I'll cover all your hidden costs. I'll see you at the
bar. Be there or be square!"
The
video has already garnered 108,000-plus views, and we can't wait to see
what happens if and when they do meet up! (We just hope Grandma brings
that super chic, retro ensemble).
Do you think they look alike? Sound off in the comments below!
