The Untold Truth Of Craig Melvin

A familiar face to NBC News and MSNBC viewers for years, Craig Melvin finally became part of the Today family in 2018. From his time in the early 2000s as a local reporter in South Carolina to now, his rise to the top has been a long time coming.

Craig Melvin's schedule is not for the faint of heart. He told Parade that his alarm wakes him up each weekday morning at 3:45 a.m. After that, he says:

"I've gotten it down to a bit of a science in that I can get out of the house in 22 minutes."

He's picked up by a driver, typically before 4:15 a.m., for a commute that takes about an hour. Melvin uses that time to prep for the show, "reading scripts and notes" for Today, as well as his MSNBC show. He usually arrives at Today's studio in Rockefeller Center by about 5:30. Before going on air, he'll eat a breakfast he describes as "very particular" and never varies. Melvin joked,

"I'm a creature of habit. I'm like a 70-year-old man. I have a nonfat yogurt every morning and I add nuts and blueberries."

That routine also includes lots of coffee. By 9:30 a.m., Melvin revealed he'll have had "three cups of coffee and a double shot of espresso" to fuel him up for the day.
