American actor Tracy Morgan has left viewers baffled after his recent appearance on the US TODAY show, as he joked about quarantine sex with his wife to presenter Hoda Kotb.
Choosing to kick off the interview in the most uncomfortable way possible, the 30 Rock star certainly didn't hold back when Kotb asked how he was handling self-isolation with his family.
Check out Morgan's raunchy response in the video below:Rather than talk about TikTok challenges and endless games of Monopoly like the rest of us, the Saturday Night Live legend revealed perhaps a little too much about his bedroom antics, revealing via video link:
"Me and my wife have been quarantined in here for like three weeks, so she’s pregnant three times. Every week she got pregnant, and we’re also role-playing a lot now. We’re role-playing.
"She's playing a young maiden whose grandfather was infected with coronavirus. And I’m the scientist who discovered the cure, and she’ll do anything to save her grandfather’s life, and I mean anything."
As bizarre as 51-year-old Morgan's answers were, it was co-anchor Hoda Kotb that people could not take their eyes off, as her face uncomfortably contorted at the revealing remarks.
The visibly uncomfortable Kotb, 55, quipped that The Last O.G. star was a "creative one", before trying her best to change the subject.
Following his appearance on the show, Twitter exploded as people couldn't wait to share their reaction to the bizarre interview.
One viewer, Luca Baptiste, wrote: "Tracy Morgan should social distance himself from jokes."
The interview took yet another bizarre turn as Morgan then made jokes about the tiger at the Bronx Zoo that recently tested positive for coronavirus. Morgan told Kotb was going to get all his pets tested, and reeled off his apparent menagerie of creatures:
"I’m going to get all my pets tested. I’m going to get my sharks tested. I’m going to get my eel tested," he said. "I just bought a 600-pound Silverback gorilla — I’m going to take him down to New York Presbyterian and get him tested."
To which Kotb simply asked: "Are you for real, or are you just pretending?"
But Morgan did make some serious points in the interview, telling viewers that now is not the time to criticize President Trump, and that we should all be pulling together. Morgan said:
"The struggle is real. People want to criticize the president, but imagine being a president of a country and have your country get sick. So it’s difficult for him. We’ve all got to pull together as people, now."
He continued, "Now is not the time for blame and all these other things, and anger. It’s here now. We just got to be together. We’ve got to all stay safe. Nobody wants to transmit it, nobody wants to attract it, nobody wants to get it. So let’s just stay safe and do the protocol that we have to do."
