UPDATE 7:56 P.M. EST: TMZ previously reported the woman in the video to be Katie Couric. It has since been clarified to be Meredith Vieira.
Matt Lauer really liked his coworkers. Especially when they were bending over.
Now that the TV host has officially gotten the boot at NBC over sexual misconduct allegations, decades’ worth of stories have been coming out highlighting his alleged true creepy nature.
And if word of mouth isn’t enough, we now have video evidence!

On Wednesday, TMZ released a clip from October 2006 showing Matt eyeing Meredith Vieira while the cameras were still rolling during a commercial break.
As Meredith leaned over to pick up papers on the table in front of him, you can hear Matt say:
“Pretty sweater. Keep bending over like that. It’s a nice view.”
Gross. Does he kiss Al Roker with that mouth?
Weirdly enough, the inappropriate comment found its way to the public even though Today had gone to commercial at the time. In at least one city, the local affiliate stayed on NBC’s in-studio feed, resulting in Matt’s very own Access Hollywood style tape. At least he didn’t tell Meredith where he wanted to grab her…
