Crowd Cheers on Al Roker Dressed as Lionel Richie for Halloween Show

Al Roker

Al Roker is dancing on the ceiling this Halloween!

The Today star dressed up as Lionel Richie on Tuesday, Oct. 31, for the fall holiday, putting on a show for an audience of the morning show’s fans, who enthusiastically cheered him on.

For the musical presentation, where he chose to bust a move to the artist's 1986 tune "Dancing on the Ceiling," Roker channeled the “We Are the World“ singer in a brightly colored top with tassels worn over a cow-print button-up, along with plaid pants, and black dress shoes. The look was complete with a wig full of hair and the dance moves to compliment it (which, in all honesty, is impressive due to his multiple knee replacement surgeries).

A video clip of the moment was shared on Instagram, and viewers poured in to applaud the famed weatherman and his lively display.

"Nailed it 🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️," one said, while another added, "Lionel has never looked better Mr Roker!!"

"Al you got moves👏," someone else noticed, as a fourth confirmed, "Loved it! Al channeling Lional [sic] 🙌."

A fifth joyously chimed in, writing, "You go Al!!!❤️."

In lieu of actual words, several more simply sent in a wealth of clapping hands and fire flames emojis.

Meanwhile, someone else wrote what we were thinking with "Nobody has more fun than Al on Halloween lol 😂."

If you know Al, you know this is nothing new for the 69-year-old, as he is no stranger to pulling off epic costumes. For last year's festivities, the father of three did not disappoint while dressed up as multi-talented blues singer, Sammy Davis Jr.
