Today on 'Today': Calling Out Matt Lauer's Ankles
The kids from Best Week Ever did their usual Friday shtick this morning, but with a special, meta-highlight: Matt Lauer asked them what they thought about his Britney Spears interview. While the rest spit out the expected jokes, Sherrod Small won our hearts by addressing Lauer's inexcusable attire of loafers without socks: "I was just uncomfortable with seeing your ankles during the whole thing." Always the professional, Lauer completely ignores him — but later in the segment (not on the clip), on the matter of Connie Chung's hideous farewell performance, Small reiterated, "I can handle Connie Chung, I just can't handle your ankles." Touche. The man speaks for everyone.
