The actresses stopped by "Today" on Tuesday to chat about their roles in the all-female "Ocean's Eleven" spinoff, but ended up mostly just talking loudly amongst themselves, throwing in the occasional joking barb at each other (two-time Oscar winner Blanchett said of Paulson's lone Emmy win, "That's nice") and wondering aloud if their off-the-rails exchange was being aired live (it was). It was enough to bring Kotb to tears -- of laughter, that is.
Get the waterproof mascara because @hodakotb could not stop crying from laughing during her interview with @MsSarahPaulson & Cate Blanchett (and even had to call in @savannahguthrie for help)! #Oceans8 pic.twitter.com/eKyd28dzO8

The host tried several times to steer the conversation back to "Ocean's 8," even bringing in co-host Savannah Guthrie for reinforcement, but by that time, it was too late.
"We didn't do anything but just be crazy people," Paulson said by way of apology toward the end of the interview.
We're totally okay with it. If "Ocean's 8" is even half as zany as this promo appearance, moviegoers are in for some fun.
The flick hits theaters this Friday, June 8.
