Craig doing a surprise outfit reveal at the Rockefeller ceremony will be a nice pick-me-up for fans since the beloved Today co-host Savannah Guthrie, 50, won't be hosting this year.

"UGH - flu or something like it since Monday. I’m so sad to miss the tree lighting and TODAY. Hopefully it passes soon! Miss everyone. I will be watching," Savannah captioned.
In an Instagram story Savannah wrote, "hate missing the show and the Rock Center Tree Lighting. Will be watching from bed."
