“Overslept big time. It’s 6.34am and I’m still in the car,” Guthrie captioned a selfie, just 25 minutes before the cameras were due to start rolling.

As she arrived in the building still undressed for the day, TODAY’S radio program director could be heard yelling out, “Oh Savannah!”

“I know. I can’t even,” the exasperated TV host responded.

At 6.40am, Guthrie filmed her stylist running a hairdryer through her air with only 20 minutes until showtime. “Miracle workers,” she captioned her clip of her.

“This is a miracle,” she said as she joined them at the studio desk. “I’m gonna make it!”

“I can’t believe it,” Guthrie added, while Melvin responded: “It’s amazing.”
