Savannah Guthrie on May 30, 2025The Gist -

It’s tradition that Today anchors go all out for their Halloween costumes.

Guthrie perhaps didn’t go all out with her 2025 costume, but she certainly went on trend with her DIY getup.

Guthrie debuted her costume on Instagram on October 29, wearing “67” paper cutouts that referenced the viral TikTok trend.

No one can accuse Today anchor Savannah Guthrie of not being hip with what the youth is into—after all, she is a mom to an 11-year-old daughter and an 8-year-old son.

At Today, the anchors take their Halloween costumes very seriously, and Guthrie debuted hers on Instagram on October 29. Standing inside what appears to be her home, Guthrie showed off her “67” Halloween costume—paper cutouts of a six in the front and a seven in the back—with the reel set to the tune of Skrilla’s “Doot Doot,” which started the whole TikTok trend. (More on that in a moment.)

According to Today, “67” is expected to be one of the most popular Halloween costumes this year, so Guthrie’s DIY getup is right on trend. After Skrilla’s song came out earlier this year, it went viral as a nod to NBA star LaMelo Ball, who is 6’7’’. From there, social media users started to say “67” in their own videos to reference—well, to reference anything at all.

“There’s literally no circumstance where a kid might not say, ‘six, seven,’” teacher and education content creator Mr. Lindsay said on Today. It has become “overused,” Lindsay added, with Forbes noting that Generation Alpha in particular are yelling “six, seven” so much that Dictionary.com made the numbers its word of the year for 2025 on Wednesday, the same day Guthrie debuted her costume.

“It’s part inside joke, part social signal, and part performance,” said Steve Johnson, Dictionary Media Group’s director of lexicography. “When people say it, they’re not just repeating a meme, they’re shouting a feeling.”

Skrilla himself admitted that the phrase is essentially meaningless, telling The Wall Street Journal, “I never put an actual meaning on it, and I still would not want to,” adding that its lack of meaning is “why everybody keeps saying it.”

Guthrie’s “67” costume follows her 2024 costume, where she dressed up as Elle Woods from Legally Blonde—played iconically, of course, by Reese Witherspoon. When the actress saw Guthrie’s costume on Instagram, she commented, simply, “Approved.”
