Former NBC “Today” host Matt Lauer told actress Sandra Bullock in a 2009 interview that he saw her naked in a movie she starred in.

“The major thing that’s changed since I’ve seen you last: I have seen you naked,” said Lauer.

Lauer, who was fired Tuesday after sexual harassment allegations, stayed fixated on Bullock being naked for her role in the film “The Proposal.” Lauer inquired about Bullock’s nudity in the role and joked that she is now his “screensaver.”

WATCH:

Lauer was fired after an NBC employee filed a complaint to the company’s human resource department that the show host sexually harassed her during the 2014 Sochi Winter Games.

Since his termination, Variety reported that Lauer had a button under his desk to lock his door without getting up. “It allowed him to welcome female employees and initiate inappropriate contact while knowing nobody could walk in on him, according to two women who were sexually harassed by Lauer,” the report said.
