Today fans concerned as Al Roker shares ‘scary and unsafe’ new video after working day and night on multiple shows

Jan 06, 2024

AL Roker has sparked concern from Today Show fans after he shared a eye-opening video on Thursday night.

The TV star has been working day and night on multiple shows and fans are afraid for his health.

Al finished out his night by running into Niall Horan fans on the street.

"Just walked out of studio 1a after doing NBC Nightly News and saw all these folks waiting for tomorrow's Today Citi Concert with Niall Horan- Wow!" he captioned the Instagram post.

"It is Thursday, at 6:45 pm and these folks are all lined up for our Today Show Friday concert series with Niall Horan. Wow," Al said in a voice over.

The camera panned over at least 50 people waiting outside by a gate with blankets, snacks, and chairs.

Niall performed on the Today Plaza on Friday morning to promote his new album, The Show, which just dropped on June 9.

However, fans were worried for the followers in the video because they would be sleeping over night on the New York street and did not have access to bathrooms.

Also, the air quality from the Canadian wildfires was still high in New York and only a few of them were wearing masks.

"I'm sorry, but this is a terrible idea with the air quality there. Not a mask in sight..." one person wrote.

Another added: "This is terrible with the air quality! Give them a ticket or something so they can go home."

Fans were growing concern for Al too, as he's worked multiple jobs.

The meteorologist works on Today in the early mornings and then headed to NBC Nightly News a few nights this past week.

He has done all of this, plus a few side projects while recovering from knee surgery.

The 68-year-old was out from the show at the beginning of May to get a knee replacement.

He was walking with a cane for a bit, but seems to be back to his normal speed.

A few months back, Al also suffered from blood clots in his legs and lungs.

After bracing the chaos of the Niall fans, he crashed a colleague's photo on Friday morning.

He shared a couple of snapshots of colleagues Laura Jarrett and Kristen Welker to Instagram.

Except they weren't the only people in the picture.

Both women posed off to the side in the weather area of the Today Show set.

In the background, Al was seen strutting through.

In the first snap, he looked like he was just glancing over at the women.

In the second, however, Al wore a huge grin and pointed at the women as they laughed at his involvement.

He captioned his photos: "My favorite lady in red x 2 @laurajarrett and @kristen.welker..."

Kristen responded by sharing Al's photo on her own Instagram Stories.

"Al Roker: set crasher," she wrote in a joking caption on the image.
