GMA hosts poke fun at ‘uncoordinated’ George Stephanopoulos as hosts break down in group dance & do ‘The Carlton’
GOOD Morning America hosts have poked fun at colleague George Stephanopoulos’ lack of dancing coordination.
The presenters ended up in fits of laughter while trying out the Fresh Prince of Bel Air’s famous Carlton dance during Wednesday’s episode of the ABC show.
GMA co-host George, 61, was sitting down with Robin Roberts, 61, Michael Strahan, 50, and Lara Spencer, 52, as they discussed Shawn Mendes’ new music video for his single When You’re Gone.
As they teased the new song and video, the hosts were seen dancing on set.
Robin busted out into the Carlton, while Lara and Michael joined her and they revealed they liked the song’s beat.
The Carlton is a dance move made famous by the character of the same name on Will Smith’s hit 90s sitcom.

George then attempted his best dance moves, which made his co-hosts break out into laughter.
Lara continued to dance as she claimed: “Even George has some moves.”
Meanwhile, Michael cracked up and Robin slapped on the arm of her chair as she said: “Nice try!”

JEOPARDY BACKLASH
While George showed off the fun side of his personality during the episode, he was previously met with backlash when he served as a guest host on Jeopardy!
Back in July, George made his debut on the game show.
Fans made it clear they did not like how he handled the role and vowed to boycott the show until Robin served as guest host the following week.
While taking to Twitter, one fan wrote: “Oh, #Jeopardy. George Stephanopoulos is hosting? I just can’t. I’ll be back next week. Sigh!”
Another agreed, writing: “Nope! Can’t watch Jeopardy for the next two weeks.”
After the Jeopardy! Twitter account promoted George’s hosting role, one fan commented: “Skipping these two weeks.”
MICHAEL’S MOVES
While viewers expressed their love for Robin, another fan-favorite GMA host is Michael.
The 50-year-old was first known as a Super Bowl-winning NFL star, playing for the New York Giants for 15 seasons.
Michael, who retired from the league in 2008, was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2014.
He was a seven-time Pro Bowler, a two-time NFL sack leader and once named the league’s Defensive Player of the Year.
Following his retirement, the athlete successfully transitioned into a TV career.
He first appeared as an analyst for Fox NFL Sunday before starring on Live! with Kelly and Michael from 2012 to 2016.
Michael then moved to his current full-time role at GMA.
