Hoda Kotb and Al Roker definitely earned their payday today from Today.
That is because the weatherman asked the television audience if they wanted to see him eat a Payday bar, and they said “absolutely.” Since he wasn’t going to do it by himself, he asked his co-anchor to do it with him. So, they each put their mouth on one end of the candy bar and bit down.
And it reminded us of that sweet moment from Lady and the Tramp when they share a string of spaghetti.
You have to love live television because you never know what is going to happen.
Pedro Pascal recently met up with a fan while holding his Starbucks coffee drink, and AlexaFromSpace posted the video online. Since other fans are so obsessed with him, they had to zoom in to see what the actor was drinking.
What was he holding in his hand? He was downing 6 shots of espresso with extra ice in a venti cup. No wonder he survived the end of the world in The Last of Us; who wouldn’t survive with that much of a jolt?
Back to the drink. Since the producers of Today are evil, they asked Al Roker, Craig Melvin, Savannah Guthrie, and Hoda Kotb to try it. What did they think? They all hated it. Guthrie said, “I would rather lick my shoe.” And Roker declared, “I could see through my eyelids.”
Now, I totally want to try it. But I go crazy with one cup of coffee. I cannot even imagine what that much caffeine would do to me! If you see me on the news, you will know how badly it turned out.
There is just something about Idris Elba that leaves women weak in their knees. And we got to see that happen on live television today.
Kelly is a huge fan of the actor, so she woke her husband up very early to go see Luther live in person on Today. She wanted to make sure she got a good place, so they got there at 4a. And that didn’t go unnoticed by the producers of the NBC news program.
So they brought the couple inside so that she could have the best seat in the house. Not only that, they called her out on the show.
She was so enamored by the actor that she was left starstruck. She was shaking, crying, and in awe. And he was so sweet to her and her husband. So, that makes me love him even more.
BTW If I were Savannah, I would’ve asked Kelly who is her Hall Pass. Could you imagine if she said anyone other than Elba?
The Today Show started off with Savannah Guthrie hosting the show this morning, but by the second hour, she was gone.
So what happened? Sheinelle Jones told their audience, “She wasn’t feeling great, so she took a COVID test. It came back positive. So, as soon as we found out, she rushed home to rest up. So Savannah, we love you, wishing you a speedy recovery.”
Al Roker, who had coronavirus late last year backed away from Jones as she was talking about their ailing co-anchor because she sat next to her when the show started. I can’t say I blame him.
When it comes to Guthrie, who is vaccinated and boosted, this is the second time she has tested positive. The first time was in January 2022.
One last thought. Now that we know why Guthrie is missing from the show, when are they going to tell us where Hoda Kotb has been for the last seven broadcasts?
Ashton Kutcher was on The Kelly Clarkson Show, and he revealed that he puts orange juice in his coffee.
So today on Today, Al Roker, Savanah Guthrie, and Hoda Kotb tried it. What did they think? The weatherman spat it back into his cup, and the two ladies’ faces of disgust said it all.
I don’t blame them. That just sounds like the grossest thing because orange juice only goes well with other fruit juices. Although, I wonder if it goes well with milk like a creamsicle. Let me know because there is no fucking way I am going to try it.
Have you tried that? Better yet, have you tried coffee and orange juice?
