The story behind Craig Melvin‘s earring will melt your heart.
The Today anchor was interviewing Jamie Lee Curtis when the Oscar-winning actress asked him about his piercing.
“What’s the blue dot in your ear?” she asked on the Nov. 3 episode of Today. “Tell me the story.”
Craig shared that his decision to get his ear pierced was a result of a nerves-filled outing with his daughter Sybil, 9, to get her ears pierced.
“My daughter, years ago, she went to go get her ears pierced and she got cold feet,” he recalled. “And in a moment of haste, I was like, ‘If I do it, will you do it?’ And she’s like, ‘Yes!’ And I got it, and that’s why I have it.”
Naturally, Jamie melted when the morning show host—who shares Sybil and Delano, 11, with wife Lindsay Czarniak—finished the story.
“Oh, come on!” she exclaimed. “That’s gorgeous.”
Craig, who then redirected the conversation because, as he noted, he was “blushing” at Jamie’s praise, had previously shared the story behind his piercing back when it happened before Sybil’s fifth birthday.
