Today show stars laugh off bad hair days during live broadcast

‘Are we having a bad hair day, or what?’ Today show stars struggle to hold back laughter as they sport very windswept hairstyles during live broadcast at the Australian Open

The Today show panel are usually perfectly preened when they address their Australian viewers. 

But on Friday, they couldn’t help but poke fun at their windswept appearance when their Australian Open coverage in Melbourne was interrupted by the extremely breezy conditions.

Co-hosts Georgie Gardner and Deborah Knight laughed as their immaculately-styled blonde locks began flying over their faces during the live broadcast.

‘Are we having a bad hair day, or what?’ Deborah Knight and Georgie Gardner struggle to hold back laughter as they got battered by the wind during the Today Show on Friday 

Proof of their professionalism, Georgie, Deborah and co-stars Tom Steinfort and Tony Jones were all smiles, despite being lashed by the wind during their discussion.

‘Are we having a bad hair day here, or what?’ sports reporter Tom chuckled to his fellow panelists.

Responding with sarcasm, Georgie laughed: ‘No, this is perfect.’  

'This is good. It's a big improvement': Georgie (R) laughed off her wild locks as she flicked her hair off her face while newsreader Tom comically tried, to pat it down with his hand

Melbourne is currently in the midst of a heatwave, and the stars were sitting outside in the 33 degree heat at 6.30am. 

‘We’ll take the breeze, and I don’t care about the hair,’ Deborah mused. 

‘This is good. It’s a big improvement,’ Georgie added, as she flicked her hair off her face while newsreader Tom comically tried to pat it down.

Deborah then turned to Georgie and added: ‘People were having a go at our hair being too styled, so we may as well go mental.’

The current panel also includes former Triple J newsreader Brooke Boney as their entertainment reporter.
