Savannah Guthrie Jokes About 'Today' Show Live Birth And Internet Believes It
Posted in: Today's ChiliLesson of the day: It’s best not to joke that you are going to give birth on live television. Because everyone will believe you — and freak out.
Savannah Guthrie learned that Tuesday morning when she teased with Howard Stern that she planned to have her baby on air.
“I’m really hoping to bond with our viewers,” she said. “The only way to do that is to do a live birth on the ‘Today’ show.”
But viewers seemed to miss the joke, because moments later the Internet exploded:
So @SavannahGuthrie says she will bring the @TODAYshow film crew in for the birth of her child. How do you all feel about this?

@SavannahGuthrie I really hope you were joking about giving birth on live tv. If you do, I’m sorry but I will not respect you anymore. 🙁

@SavannahGuthrie. Please don’t give birth on tv. It’s a very private thing, and I very personally don’t wanna see that.
