Matt Lauer passes test after crash course in wildlife




Matt Lauer looks pretty darn good for a guy who recently went head to head with a deer.

The"Today'' show hostarrived at the Forces of Nature benefit with his arm in a sling — courtesy of a doe who collided with his bicycle — but was still in high spirits. “I’m among the living,” he told us. “ I’m a little banged up, but I’ll be okay.”

And what about Bambi? “The deer never wrote and never called,” he said. “It’s funny — they’re all around my house, but I’ve never even had a close call in a car, let alone on a bicycle.”

Lauer’s wounded wing does set him back in the morning hours, though. “I get up at 4 a.m., and getting dressed now is really hard. That early, it’s not the time you wake up your family to help put your socks on.”

Theater reunion

Sarah Jessica Parker may have been too distracted with her new film “Did

You Hear About the Morgans?” to celebrate the opening of “SATC” co-starCynthia Nixon’s play, but she finally settled down at the Laura Pels Theatre on Tuesday to check out “Distracted.”

Says an insider: “Sarah loved the show, and even went backstage to congratulate Cynthia and tell her how much she enjoyed the performance.”
