Jim Carrey Makes Brian Williams Joke On 'SNL 40' Red Carpet

During an interview with NBC’s Matt Lauer on the “SNL 40″ red carpet, Jim Carrey joked about Brian Williams.

“Can I ask you a question, you guys? Where are you hiding Brian Williams? Where is he?” Carrey asked as Lauer, Tina Fey and Savannah Guthrie looked slightly uncomfortable. “I just want to say something in his defense,” Carrey continued. “If the helicopter in front of me gets hit, I’m taking the story.”

Williams was suspended for six months by NBC after embellishing a story about his time covering the war in Iraq. Watch the interaction below.
