Matt and Al's Rhythmic Gymnastics: Hilarious or Humiliating?

Matt and Al's Rhythmic Gymnastics: Hilarious or Humiliating?

August 19, 2008

On the Today show this morning, Matt Lauer and Al Roker performed a men's tandem rhythmic gymnastics routine to the tune of "Dream Weaver." (Note: Men's tandem rhythmic gymnastics is not an actual sport — yet.) The parody was meant to be funny, and their earnest expressions kinda crack me up . . . but I can't help but wonder if Matt is being forced into that Spandex against his will. What do you think?

I rather hope it was against his will -- if you aren't an athlete, spandex is not really your friend. :)

The Today show people were funny this morning, too! They were playing in the fountains...Ann accidentally got drenched and then Meredith voluntarily did and tried to pull Matt and Al in there, too. I like watching them because they always seem like they are in a good mood and it puts me in a good mood for the day.

I guess I'm not a viral video consumer...I thought this was too silly to finish watching it.

I thought it was a scream! I think they're good sports to make fun of themselves like that, and Brian Williams too to appear.

Wow that was hilarious. I think Matt Lauer was embarassed, but Al Roker looked totally into it. Love the Brian Williams cameo :drool:

I joined just so that I could leave a comment. I just have to say when I saw this this morning I laughed so hard I peed.

One day I think Matt Lauer is gonna lose it on air and quit. I'm just waiting for it. It will be like the movie Network come to life.
