from universal at lanorlando. >> i know you're following breaking news on the weather. >> we'll get to that now. we'll see you in a few minutes. texas is hammered once again by record rains and flooding. the weather channel's dave malkof is in dallas where people are stranded on roadways. davg, good morning. >> reporter: listen to this for a second. hear that? that is the sound of dallas drying out after a wild, wild morning. torrential rain followed by the most flooding they have seen in a long time. the most swift water rescues in five years. these vehicles down here under this overpass, we didn't even see them when we arrived in the morning because the high water mark is right here. this is how much water was pour on the ground ver these vehicles. the answer to were there people in the vehicles is unfortunately yes. the dallas fire department we

were with the swift water rescue team pulling people out of vehicles, but not everybody was so lucky to have the first responders right in front of them. this is sam's brand new bmw. he was inside and he had to self rescue. this was a terrible night in dallas. and it's going to be worse as the water comes back. >> dave down in dallas this morning, thanks very much. we'll have more on that situation in a molt. another story, this one in new york. passenger planes leaving jfk airport targeted by laser pointers. nbc's tom costello covers aviation. what can you tell us? >> 9:30 and 10:00 p.m. last night about four miles northwest of farmingdaily, new york, the recent case of a person or people on the ground pointing a potentially blinding laser at a cockpit. the planes flying at 8,000 feet hit by this green laser, at least three of the four had taken off from jfk airport. the flights were american 185,

shuttle america 4213, delta 2292 and delta 2631. the police report no one was injured but it follows a spate of laser attacks. in march 2 chopper pilots suffered eye injuries after they were hit tracking down the source of a laser being pointed at planes landing at laguardia and an air canada pilot hit in march. nobody reported injured from last night's incident but the faa and police are working to track down whoever might be responsible. >> tom, do they have an area where these pointers were probably coming from? >> all they know is that it was northwest of farmingdaily. you know, authorities say it's almost as if if somebody on the ground is bored and they point one of these green lasers that you can buy online or office supply store and point this to a plane overhead. the trouble is that flash of green laser light can light up a cockpit, it blinds the pilots and makes it impossible for them

to see out their cockpit windows or even look at flight controls. the crime pretty serious, punishable by up to 20 years in prison, so the faa and fbi are serious about prosecuting anybody responsible. >> a dangerous situation. tom, thank you. let's get more on that historic flooding down south as we showed you overnight parts of texas receiving exactly what they do not need, more rain. nbc's gabe gutierrez has more on that. good morning to you. >> reporter: matt, good morning. a few minutes ago the sun peeked out but overnight we got a lot of rain here in wimberley, dumping a lot of water in the blanco river. to the north austin authorities had to rescue a house boat that had broken free from its dock. flood alerts are in effect for almost 800 miles from missouri to texas. overnight dozens of people were rescued from flash flooding in central texas as emergency

until early next week. when finally, they will get a chance to dry out. in the meantime, flash flood watches and warnings go into saturday and sunday in that region. >> historic. we'll get the rest of your forecast in a bit. matt, up to you in new york. >> now a newly unveiled indictment getting attention, former house speaker dennis hastert accused in a scheme to pay millions in hush money to a person from his home state. nbc's pete williams has the latest on this. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. this grand jury indictment revealing the charges raises but doesn't answer two big questions -- who does the government claim the former speaker was paying, and what was the past misconduct a grand jury says was worth millions to keep quiet? the charges were filed against dennis hastert now 73, who was speaker of the u.s. house of representatives from 1999 to 2007. capping a quarter century in public life. prosecutors say the charges

involve payments to someone from yorkville, illinois where hastert was a teacher and wrestling coach in the mid 1960s and 70s, a point of pride when he became speaker. >> as a classroom teacher and coach i learned the value of brevdy. >> reporter: documents said he agreed to pay $3.5 million in apparent hush money from the person identified only as individual a, someone who is known hastert for most of that person's life the government says. the documents say hastert agreed to make the payments, quote, to compensate for and conceal hills prior misconduct against individual a that occurred years earlier. the documents do not say if individual a is a man or woman or what the misconduct was. prosecutors say hastert paid almost $2 million, with drawing money from his accounts, $50,000 at a time, but cut that back to less than $10 thoutz at a time to illegally evade bank transaction rules.

the indictment says when asked he lied to the fbi saying he didn't feel the banking system was safe and, quote, i kept the cash. that's what i'm doing. >> this inif dietment was shocking not only because who it involved, denny hastert, but that the investigation had been a secret. >> reporter: no response from hastert. a spokesman for the lobbying firm says hastert resigned. he will make his first court appearance in chicago. >> you talked about the two big questions. what was the misconduct, and exactly who was he paying off? at what point during the legal process does the public get that information? >> as a technical matter maybe never. it's not essential to prove the charges to show why he was doing this, the fact that he was structuring the payments and lying to the fbi about whether the cash was for himself or someone else. if this thing does progress flew the courts i'm sure at some point it would come out. >> pete, thank you very much.

natalie's here now with a dramatic twist at a very closely watched trial. good morning. >> good morning again. we're hearing for the first time a chilling interview with james holmes, the admitted gunman in the deadly attack on a colorado movie theater in 2012. the interview conducted by a state-appointed psychiatrist is now being played for jurors. jacob rascon is in los angeles. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this marks a shift in the trial, more than 150 first responders and witnesses have already testified about the horror that day. now we move to the crux of the case, the mentality of the mass shooter. >> i only -- they were like collateral damage. >> james holmes sat almost motionless showing no emotion. psychiatrist william reed who conducted the evaluation last year, testified today holmes was mentally ill but legally sane. >> the defendant james eegp holmes met the definition of

legal sanity. >> yes. >> what brings you to tears sometimes. >> just regrets. >> regrets about? >> about the shooting. >> there's gun shots. >> the defense attorneys admitted holmes carried out the attack but argue he was in the grips of a psychosis. his diary detail his philosophy on life and death, good did and evil followed by eight pages of the word why repeated over and over. what he calls a self diagnosis of a broken mind, about illnesses and finally the plot, page after page of diagrams, alternate venues and methods, serial murder, writing the obsession to kill since i was a kid became more realistic. finally the last escape. mass murder at the movies. the doctor will take the stand again and for the next several days of court, the jury will

hear all 22 hours of his interview with the shooter, a second psychiatrist is also expected to testify that holmes was legally sane but a third expert for the defense is expected to disagree. back to you. >> jacob rascon, thank you. amid a massive corruption scandal soccer's body the fifa will vote on its president. his only challenger is aly bin hussein of jordan. the vote comes two days after swiss police arrested seven soccer officials as part of a corruption scandal and so far u.s. investigators have not disclosed any evidence that blater had knowledge of misconduct. >> a volcano on a remote southern japanese island erupted blasting plumes of black smoke in the sky. there were no immediate reports of injuries to the 140 residents

>> thursday santorum who just announced his 2016 white house bid, was asked about the scandal by abc news. >> i'm just sickened by it. i pray for those girls in particular. to have gone through that is just hard to think about. >> before news of the allegations broke last week the family had already endorsed former arkansas governor mike huckabee's 2016 bid. despite the scandal, huckabee has announced his support for josh duggar and the family calling josh's actions inexcusable but not unforgivable. >> 12 in the house. >> an assessment that has not found many public backers. >> you could say tlc's sort of tarnishing themselves in this case considering they haven't jumped on the opportunity to make a decision. >> there's also been some talk about the fact that both jim bob and michelle duggar at this point have basically admitted that they kept this quiet for

some time. that has people concerned about them and about josh but there are some industry insiders who believe that perhaps part of the silence is because maybe tlc is talking with the family about some sort of spinoff for some of the other members of the family so not josh and the parents but maybe some of the recently married sisters. >> interesting. >> erica thanks. carson i imagine people have to say about this? >> they do. should tlc cancel "19 kids and counting"? 78% yes, 22% no. >> carson thank you very much. let's go back down to orlando. get a check of the weather from al. >> that's right, guys. thank you so much. of course we've been getting a lot of heavy rain obviously in the southern plains but it's going to be the northeast and new england's turn coming up. we need the rain. the threat for showers and storms over the weekend and into next week as the front pushes through. low pressure develops along it saturday and into sunday and on into monday. some of this rain will be heavy at times. we're talking about anywhere

seeing. this is about 20 bull sharks an incredibly aggressive shark. among the top three aggressive sharks. what we have not seen at least so far is a great white here. we came to this location because two great whites have been spotted in this exact location just within the last 2 1/2 weeks, so we are surrounded by bull sharks who are attracted to this area by chum. that's chopped up fish that they come to feed on. right now i'm inside this cage which is right at the surface. our camera woman, becky shot is just outside the cage. the difference between what she's doing, what am i doing, she's been diving with sharks for more than ten years and

never had a problem, including with great whites. i've never done diving with any sharks until i've gotten to this location here so this is a whole new experience for me. the sharks that are in this area could also be in the area here with white sharks. it's not as if the white sharks would necessarily scare them away but so far our attempt to find any one shark and specifically kathryn, the shark that had a tag on it. although it's been a while since she surfaced and transmitted information, she transmitted that information generally in this area. so we came out to find her and she may show up in a little while. who knows. savannah. >> all right, kerry. thank you so much. i wonder if kerry's tried tweeting kathryn. that would get a direct message. >> i want kerry to say once i am your father luke. >> oh, kerry is a brave one.

>> we love you, pitbull! >> 305, we love you! >> mr. worldwide! >> pitbull, i love you. >> we're back now. 8:00 on a friday morning. it is the 29th day of may 2015. we've got a beautiful day here in new york. matt lauer along with natalie morales, carson daly. we've got al and savannah down in orlando. looks like a pretty day there although i would imagine a little warmer. >> starting to get a little steamy. >> it's a little toasty, but that's not going to be anywhere close as hot as it will be when mr. worldwide takes the stage. >> here at universal orlando they are celebrating 25 years.

there are great shows here. one is animal actors on location. you can see some of the great animal actors. i think we've got a cockatoo here. if a bird likes a picture she'll go land on it. shoot. it doesn't seem to be working. let me try this picture. let me see if this picture works better. oh, yes. he likes what he sees. run along, bird. run along. >> that was great. >> yeah. i don't know. there's something appealing, that bird saw that picture and had to have it. coming up, we are going to ride some of the rides here at orlando. al got my courage up. >> that's right. and of course we are waiting for mr. worldwide, mr. international to take the stage. pitbull in a concert here.

>> send it back up to you guys. >> all right. see you in a second. you like roller coasters? >> i do not. no. i don't have the innards for it. >> we'd be perfect for an amusement park then. >> that adventure coming and another one going on just off the coast of florida. kerry sanders is in that cage in the atlantic ocean. he's searching for a great white shark. kerry, bring us up-to-date. what's happening? >> reporter: well, this is probably the most dangerous part of our dive because right now i'm what somewhat protected in this cage. but i'm going to exit to make it to the boat. as i exit, let me take you around here and show you the sharks we're swimming with. how do i feel? my heart is beating. i don't think i've ever really seen anything quite like this in the wild where i'm so close. but kathryn, where's kathryn?

kathryn was supposed to be here. she's the great white that's tagged. guys, i think she stood us up. >> well, it seems like you've got enough of a party going on there, kerry. get to the boat quickly and we thank you for trying. who knows. kathryn may still show up. >> be funny if they panned up and kathryn was there. let's get a check of the top stories with natalie. >> good morning once again. the big story we've been talking about for a week now, the weather. flash flood watches once again in texas and oklahoma. meantime the search goes on for more than a dozen people still missing from earlier floods. the weather channel's dave malkoff is in dallas this morning. dave, good morning. tell us what you're seeing there. >> good morning, natalie. it was a wild night last night here in dallas ft. worth metroplex area. this entire underpass here was covered in water. all these vehicles, this nissan and others, you couldn't even see them. let me show you the high water mark.

you can see this right here. this is how much water fell overnight. it was up to here so you couldn't see any of those vehicles. a guy named sam ung was inside this black bmw. he was inside there when the water swept him away. he was terrified and couldn't get out of the vehicle because as you see, you can't move the doors when there's so much water trapping you inside. so he had to break a window here to get out of his vehicle. he self-rescued, but not everybody was so lucky. look at that. brand new vehicle. this is the most swift water rescues dallas fire department has done in the last five years. it all happened overnight. it was dry here when we went to bed. when we woke up this morning, it was like this. a disaster. everywhere you can look. >> dave malkoff there in dallas for us. thanks so much, dave. meanwhile, the mystery surrounds the criminal indictment of former republican

house speaker dennis hastert. he's accused of breaking federal banking laws by making large unreported cash withdrawals. he paid nearly $2 million of that money to a person from his home state of illinois as compensation and to conceal long-ago misconduct against them. hastert had been a high school teacher and wrestling coach in the '60s and '70s. the faa is investigating a potential threat to air travel. a laser beam pointed at planes near new york's kennedy airport. at least four commercial pilots said a green laser hit their planes while they were over long island on thursday night. the laser apparently came from a nearby state park. pointing a laser at a plane is a federal crime because it can temporarily blind the pilot. a dramatic ending thursday night to the scripps national spelling bee. a tie was declared after gokul venkatachalam nailed his word nunatak and the judges ran out of words.

>> nunatak. >> correct. >> this morning i spoke about the fantastic finish with gokul and his co-champion vanya shivashankar. >> the whole competition was really great. i had a lot of fun this week. >> i think it's great to be a co-spelling bee champ because more people got an opportunity to win and less hearts were broken. >> the winners, meanwhile, get nearly $38,000 and a dictionary which they clearly do not need. but the rest of us do. it's 8:07 right now. let's send it over to matt. >> all right. congratulations to both of them. the human body is an amazing thing. able to perform remarkable tasks. but apparently there's something we were not quite prepared for. that is our tenacious appetite for texting. it has doctors across the country now reporting an increase in hand injuries. sheinelle jones is here with more on that. hand injuries because of texting. >> it's true. it's not exactly life or death,

but if you're the type of person who's texting while you're watching, you're going to want to put down your phone and listen. >> reporter: let's face it. we're a culture of typers, texters, and touch screen addicts. >> our smartphones do so much now. you get your personal e-mail, work e-mail, texting, order food. it's really hard to put it down. >> reporter: in fact, 64%, that's two-thirds of american adults, now own a smartphone. that's up from 35% just four years ago. while modern phones have revolutionized the way we live, all of that texting may be taking its toll. some doctors reporting an increase in hand injuries due to overuse. >> we have everybody texting so much these days and using smartphones we do see a fair amount of people that are coming with some pain. >> reporter: the most common digit in danger, your thumb. >> the thumb being the most useful digit we have tends to be the most problematic. and a variety of ailments

whether it be a trigger thumb or arthritis, they're much more prevalent in the thumb than any of the remaining digits. >> reporter: solving the problem may mean making smarter decisions with our smartphones. >> you should take these injuries to your thumb seriously because the quicker that you correct the problem, the less likely you would need an invasive procedure such as an injection or a brace or a small procedure to correct the problem. >> reporter: so if you feel pain, doctors recommend you put your phone down and take frequent breaks. switch hands so one hand isn't doing all of the work. hold your phone in one hand, type with the other. and place your phone on a table and type. sound advice right at your fingertips. now, there are exercises you can do to strengthen. >> really? what do we do? >> you ever take the piano lesson back in the day where you have to do the exercises. but the best advice is put down your phone.

>> i can't do the one where you hold it in one hand. i'm a thumb person. >> me too. i'm a double thumber. >> i have tommy thumb. i do it all the time. >> it's a phenomenon. there are people watching this morning who are having pain, so put your phones down. >> sheinelle, good advice. thank you very much. up next, one of the world's most famous homes hits the market. the asking price for michael jackson's neverland. then on pop start, why you may not be able to find beyonce's music on her own husband's streaming service. savannah, down to you. >> hey. we have brought this toyota summer concert series on the road with us. getting a great performance right now as pitbull will perform live in just a few moments. but first on a friday morning, these messages. moments. but first on a fri you know the importance of heart health. you watch your diet, excercise... and may take an omega-3 supplement, such as fish oil. but when it comes to omega-3s, it's the epa and dha that really matter for heart health. not all omega-3 supplements are the same. introducing bayer pro ultra omega-3 from

the sprawling california estate that michael jackson once called home is on the market. the asking price $100 million. michael called it neverland but now it's known as sycamore valley ranch. the property spans something like 3,000 acres, 22 buildings on that property. the main house alone, 12,000 square feet, six bedrooms. the famous amusement park rides are gone, but michael's floral clock and the train station remain. if you are hoping, carson, to pose as a potential buyer just to get a tour, think again. agents are not giving tours. we actually took a tour about a week after michael jackson died in 2009. we got a private tour. >> what was it like inside the house? >> some of the furniture had already been removed. here's part of the tour going through the living room. then the private quarters. it was very, very eerie, to be quite honest. >> he bought it in 1987 for under $20 million.

a fifth of the asking price. you wonder how much he put into it and the property obviously the value of that has gone up. >> what is that? where are you going? >> it goes to a closet there that we went into. it's just a -- it's an extraordinary and controversial place, obviously. no question. the head of the colony capital owns it right now. >> does somebody buy it to live there or as a fan to keep it going? >> i don't know. 3,000 acres. >> it's a beautiful property. all right. well, what is the first rule of being a wedding guest? don't upstage the bride. everybody knows that. that seems to be what may be happening here. you see a couple in iowa getting engaged right in front of the bride and groom. this photo posted on social media with the headline, any girl's wedding nightmare. commenters then attacked that couple accusing them of trying to steal the spotlight.

but the real story is this. this whole thing, it turns out it was the bride's idea. the woman being proposed to is her sister. so people, back off. apparently she wanted their whole family to be there to witness this special moment. >> it's a terrible idea unless sanctioned by the bride. john our camera person groaned. you feel bad about that now? you cast judgment on this couple? no? shouldn't have happened? >> so, everybody, calm down. back off. >> i wouldn't propose at a wedding for fear my fiance would think i was caught up in the moment of the wedding. i'm willing to spend the rest of my life with you in this scenario, not -- >> caught up in the moment or the champagne from the reception? >> lose yourself by eminem. this video has people singing that song to themselves. but take a look at this. ♪ you better lose yourself in

the music the moment you own it ♪ ♪ you better never let it go ♪ ♪ you only get one shot ♪ ♪ do not miss your chance to blow ♪ ♪ opportunity comes once in a lifetime ♪ >> awesome. >> one of my favorite songs. favorite video of the day. this young woman's name is shelby. she submitted this as part of the job application to work with the american sign language organization. >> give her a job. >> she got the job, of course. she says her passion is interpreting music so that everyone can enjoy it. >> she really shows that passion. she is into that song. how can you not be? harrison ford taking flight once again. you have our pop start this morning. >> i do. harrison ford is still recovering from that serious plane crash back in march in california. but less than three months later he returns to the skies. check him out. there he is in the cockpit of a helicopter at santa monica airport. this is the first time flying since the crash that left him with a broken pelvis.

still fearless at age 72. all right. you know tidal owned by jay z. in an odd twist, he could lose one of his artists beyonce. here's why. according to bloomberg, tidal has yet to reach a deal with sony which owns a lot of beyonce's catalog. sony could pull beyonce's songs from her husband's streaming service. >> i'm thinking he's trying to do it, they're trying to buyout sony on this. >> they're the only married couple that have that issue. finally mariah carey, what could her worst experience have been? appearing on "american idol." she was asked if she'd be willing to return for the final season. her response and i quote, hell no absolutely not. that was the worst experience of my life. she slammed "idol" for hyping a non-existent feud with nicki

minaj. she said pitting two females against each other wasn't cool. >> so there was no truth to the feud at all? >> i guess not. >> at least she's honest about it. >> all right. >> there's your pop start. >> thank you, carson. all right. let's get a check of the weather from mr. roker. >> thanks so much. look who i found. i found the minions. you having a good time? you guys are starring in your own movie. that must be pretty exciting, right? yeah. of course. the minion movie hits theaters july 10th. we'll give you a special sneak peek. what i didn't realize is you existed since the dawn of time. you have helped some of the great villains of all time, haven't you? yeah. that's right. t-rex to napoleon. before you met gru, you went looking for another supervillain and there's all kinds of folks in this movie. jon hamm. yes. who's driving the boat? not another minion, i hope.

ahh! the movie hits theaters july 10th. cannot wait to see these guys. who's the biggest star of the movie? which one? oh, yeah. all right. all right. that's what's going on around the country. here's what's happening in your neck of the woods. clearly more sunshine in orlando right now. in the bay area we have musty skies around san francisco. golden gate bridge disappearing into the low clouds and mist. clouds down to the bridge deck this morning. this afternoon temperatures in san francisco around the low 60s. with the giants game coming up this evening we'll see numbers in the upper 50s with more low clouds. temperatures around san jose in the mid 70s. for the north bay and tri-valley 75 in santa rosa. 83 in concord with low 80s and upper 70s around dublin and pleasanton. guys why don't you all throw back to savannah. say back to you, savannah.

>> back to you, savannah! >> thanks everybody. now to the reason we're here in orlando. our wow summer adventure. universal orlando resort our sister company, is celebrating 25 years since the gates first opened. in recent years this place has really expanded adding 18 new experiences since 2010. and al and i decided to hit up as many as we could. take a look. >> we're going to head down this way. >> the original slogan for universal studios florida was ride the movie. >> so we're going to a take you on two of our favorites. let's go. >> is this going to be scary, you think? >> no. it's e.t. who's scared by that? >> honestly i was scared by e.t. hello, fellow passengers. >> phone home. phone home. >> you have to stop doing that. no really. >> phone home. elliot. elliot. >> oh my gosh. be quiet.

first up, e.t. adventure. e. e.t. personally says good-bye to guests. >> al and savannah. >> he said good-bye to us. >> bye, e.t.! i loved it. so sweet. >> now we're going to not so sweet. hulk smash! >> hulk angry. al's pick the incredible hulk coaster. >> really slow. slow start. and then we're off. >> the ride goes from 0 to 45 miles an hour in just two seconds. the only faster way to fly was

by broom stick which you could chase at the wizarding world of harry potter diagon alley. >> see! see! >> the dragon. >> all right. here we go. the leaky caldron. >> my gosh. i could use a beer. 5 million butter beers have been sold at the park. thank you. >> thank you very much. 5 million people can't be wrong. >> that's right. to our adventure. make that 5 million and 2. >> that's good butter beer. >> we took a couple on the road as we walked through the park. >> that's right. it was a great time. i must say in the years since i first came here my tolerance for roller coasters has lessened

a bit. >> and i feel like i'm just hitting my stride. i wanted to go again and again. >> we'll find some folks there who would be happy to ride with you. >> it was really fun. >> you guys made a strategically smart move of having the butter beer after the roller coaster. >> yes. oh yeah. >> i was with a veteran here. he said don't do butter beer before home. we have a lot more coming up. i'm a little wimpy. we have something exciting coming up. here's a little hint. pitbull is here. he is going to rock this stage. how you feeling? you ready to party? >> i'm doing great. we always ready to party. we in florida, baby. >> we came to you this time. >> i appreciate that. >> he's got all his fans and we are going to have a great time coming up. but back to you, matt. >> that's the hint? bring him in there. meantime kerry is back on the boat after searching for kathryn

all this week we've been catching up with the stars of the new "entourage" movie. today jeremy piven is back in the seat as ari gold. and as always he's struggling to manage his work, his family, and his anger. >> don't answer that. >> it must be important. >> don't. >> it could be about vince. i have to take it. what? >> did you show a cut of vince's movie to larson's son? >> yes. how do you know? >> the editor just called. apparently the kid showed up with notes. >> jesus. >> and i'm quoting. that pretty boy director is locked out along with everyone else until i say so. >> jeremy welcome back. good to see you. >> good to see you. >> he's a hot mess. i like him. i may even want to be him, but he's a hot steamy mess. >> i'm fascinated when people

say they want to be him. >> why? >> because he is a hot mess. as an actor, you live to play hot messes and a guy that's so volatile. that's what you live to play. >> he does and says everything that's on his mind. >> absolutely. >> so freeing. >> and somehow gets away with it. >> did you miss him in the few years you weren't playing him? you have said it's exhausting to play him, but did you miss him? >> i did. you know this is so -- you know it's interesting. going and playing mr. self jjridge and doing a period drama is like sorbet for he. it's cleansed my palate. to go back and do the movie, it made me a better actor. >> people who were fans of the show will not be disappointed. i watched this a couple of nights ago. it's earned its "r" rating. i will say that. but you thought that was the appropriate thing to do for this show. to bring it to the movie screen with an "r" rating.

>> well you have to keep it authentic to what the show was. that's the only way to do it. and i think, you know your job is -- people are going to have high expectations. and it's our job to rise to those expectations. and from everyone that has seen it i mean you enjoyed yourself right? >> first of all, not only did i see it and enjoy myself but i was lucky enough to have a cameo in it. and we were going to show it this morning and you know what they told me? we can't show my cameo because it is a plot spoiler. which i thought was a bummer. then i thought about it and i put a different spin on it. that means that i am in such a pivotal scene in the movie that we can't show it. >> not only are you in a pivotal scene, but you were so great and so professional. and what you do lends credibility to our world because it's about the backstage life of hollywood. so it does help us. and yes, we can't -- yes, yo -- there's no way you will ever be cut out of this movie. >> however, you did cut al roker out of the movie?

>> that was my own personal decision. i'll be honest with you. this is true. i've never liked al. as you can see, he's on a boat with cartoon characters. no one likes al. he gets the worst jobs ever. >> if there is a sequel to this -- there he is now. >> al -- >> you are dead to me piven! dead to me. you know what? i am canceling my subscription to pbs. i'm done. >> uh-oh. >> the "entourage" movie opening up next wednesday. good to have you here. >> thank you. up next we'll head to orlando for a live concert from pitbull. first on a friday morning, this is "today" on nbc.
