In a cringe-inducing live TV moment on the red carpet Sunday night, comedian Jim Carrey made an embarrassing time for NBC even more awkward by asking NBC’s Today show hosts Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie: “Can I ask you a question, you guys? Where are you hiding Brian Williams?”

Both hosts began to laugh and comedienne Tina Fey mumbled, “Poor Brian.” (Williams was the only news anchor to host Saturday Night Live.)



As the awkward laughing died down, and no one answered, Lauer pretended to glance at his watch, saying, “Oh, look at the time.”

“I just want to say something in his defense,” Carrey said. “If the helicopter in front of me gets hit, I’m taking the story.”
