It looks like Savannah Guthrie and Carson Daly have accepted the Ice Bucket Challenge, bringing back the viral sensation that originally took off in 2014 to raise awareness and funds for ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) research.
What’s Happening?
The #IceBucketChallenge is making a comeback, with celebrities, athletes, and influencers participating once again to support the fight against ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease).
Savannah Guthrie (TODAY Show) and Carson Daly (The Voice, TODAY) posted videos of themselves getting drenched in ice-cold water, nominating others to join in.
The challenge encourages donations to the ALS Association, which saw a massive surge in funding during the original 2014 campaign.
Why It Matters:
❄️ The challenge went viral nearly a decade ago, raising over $220 million for ALS research.
❄️ Celebrities like Bill Gates, Taylor Swift, and LeBron James participated back then—could we see another wave of big names this time?
❄️ ALS still has no cure, and continued awareness is crucial for medical breakthroughs.
Who’s Next?
Savannah and Carson likely nominated fellow TODAY Show co-hosts like Hoda Kotb, Al Roker, or Jenna Bush Hager—will they accept?
