During the segment, Carson, 48, shared a list of the latest entertainment news, concluding with a trailer from the upcoming Amazon Prime series, Citadel.

The host noted the thriller’s star-studded cast, including Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Stanley Tucci, and Richard Madden.

However, Carson pointed out that he was particularly excited to see Priyanka, 40, in the production, given his friendship with her husband, Nick Jonas, 30.

The Jealous singer was previously a judge on NBC’s The Voice, where Carson is a host.

“That’s my buddy Nick’s wife, kicking butt!” Carson boasted about Priyanka’s intense fight scenes in the show.

He then revealed that the actress would appear on Today later this month.

Craig seemed excited by the news, though he assured Carson that he and his co-hosts would behave when Priyanka is in the studio.

“We’ll be on our best behavior,” the TV personality promised.

‘DATE NIGHT’

Craig only recently returned to the show after a slew of absences.

Fans noticed him missing from the news desk on Tuesday after he had previously filled in for his co-host Savannah Guthrie, 51.

His wife, Lindsay Czarniak, later shared the reason for her husband’s day off as she posted photos from their “date night.”

In the photo shared on Instagram, the couple was dressed to the nines as they posed on the carpet.

Lindsay, 45, wore a black spaghetti-strap, low-cut, floor-length dress, while Craig wore a gray suit with a white shirt and a yellow dotted tie.

She captioned the post: “Had a whirlwind but really fun date night last night in Charlotte at the HoopTee charities Legends dinner.

“The work Hornets Pres/owner Fred Whitfield does to give underserved kids academic and athletic opportunities is incredible.

“Loved meeting NBA legends and seeing old friends including NASCAR driver @tyler_reddick who won his first race of the season for 23X1 racing this weekend and had a chance to celebrate with and teammates once again.  #hoops  #hooptees  #nba  #nascar  #basketball  #datenight #giveback.”

She then shared snaps with Tyler Reddick and his wife, Alexa DeLeon, and other photos featured NBA legends being interviewed at the event.

WHERE’S CRAIG?

Craig and Lindsey again went away earlier in the month for a tropical vacation following Craig’s recovery from an illness.

The morning show host didn’t explain his whereabouts to fans at first, though he later shared photos on Instagram from the trip.

He captioned the post: “Been laid up this week with a nasty virus but gives me time to post some pics [of] our wonderful recent family getaway.”

Craig continued: “There’s a thing called winter break in the northeast for kids. It’s for adults too. Enjoy the weekend, y’all.”

The social media post included snapshots of the TV star’s children enjoying their St. Lucia Caribbean Islands holiday.

Craig’s co-hosts, Dylan Dreyer, 41, Sheinelle Jones, 44, Hoda Kotb, 58, Al Roker, 68, and other Today contributors, filled in for him while he was away.
