Tamron Hall’s show was on fire this week… literally!
Fire trucks rushed to Hall’s daytime show to put out a fire on Wednesday, one day after a health scare forced staffers to call an ambulance to her set.
Hall’s show was delayed on Wednesday after a fire broke out in the kitchen, according to a source.
We’re told the production was prepping for a food segment when the kitchen went up in flames, forcing Hall and her staff — plus her live studio audience — to evacuate the facility at W. 66th St in NYC.
“They evacuated everyone!” the source exclaimed to Page Six.
Hall — who is in Season 5 of her eponymous show — explained the situation in a video post via Instagram Stories as firemen were coming to the rescue.
“So, it is an hour before our live show and we had to evacuate from a fire in the kitchen… but we’re all out here, the whole team… I feel like I’m back in my reporting days,” Hall said from the scene.
It all happened after an ambulance was called for Hall on Tuesday, when she was shooting her second show of the day, we’re told.
A rep for Hall did not comment on the undisclosed medical emergency, but a source told us she was checked out by an ABC doctor and nurse at the company.
Hall was back up and running on Wednesday before the grease fire that forced her to air a rerun.
But crafty Hall did update the episode to include a live monologue. “We are not able to air the show that was scheduled today…. Everybody’s OK!” she said before teasing what Wednesday’s show would’ve been.
“We planned to start the show with a viral video of Lenny Kravitz [that] he posted on Instagram, doing his ab workout [wearing] his signature leather pants, sheer top. Everybody thought it was the hottest video of the day… Well, we had a real smoke show around here!” she quipped.
Hall’s TV studio neighbors at “The View” were also forced to evacuate their studio before they went live at 11a.m. EST.
The ladies of “The View” even ditched the show’s theme song for a different tune.
“We walked to Billy Joel’s hit ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire,’ because it actually happened next door at Tamron Hall’s studio,” Whoopi Goldberg said at the top of the show.
“This morning, we had to evacuate the studio because there was a fire that we did not start,” she clarified.
Hall emphasized that everyone was safe in her opening monologue, and thanked the first responders. “All of the firefighters who arrived on the scene, thank you so much!” she said.
