Tom Cruise was the surprise guest at Matt Lauer's celebrity roast at the Friars Club in New York City on Friday. Cruise joked that Lauer had given him some advice before his infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey: "Go crazy. Trust me. Trust me. People will love you for it."

Cruise made for the exit shortly after his speech. So, Lauer called after him with the zinger, "Tom, can you stay? I'll get a booster seat."

Meredith Vieira was surprisingly one of the dirtier roasters, saying how his former co-anchor Katie Couric squeezed his balls so tight that there's nothing there for her to grab. She also relayed how when people ask her if she and Matt really get along, she answers from her heart: "Fuck no!"

Vieira also talked about how she always defends Lauer when people say he has a stick up his butt: "It's not a stick, my friends. It's Al Roker's dick."

Other roasters included Katie Couric, Bob Saget, Al Roker and others.
