Al Roker and Lenny Kravitz

Worlds collided when it was revealed that the much-loved TV anchor, Al Roker, and guitar genius Lenny Kravitz are actually distant cousins. When Lenny appeared on The Today Show back in 2011, the two were joking about their relations of being second cousins.

It turns out that Lenny Kravitz’ mother was named Roxie Roker, a last name with the same origins as the TV anchor, Al. Roxie became famous for playing Helen on The Jeffersons.
