Stefanovic gets leg waxed for charity

Karl Stefanovic has had his right leg waxed on air to complete a challenge set by a young viewer to raise money for charity.

The TODAY host began the segment looking confident, showing off his leg hair in a pair of skimpy Adidas shorts before lying down on a massage table.

But the smile was soon gone as an assistant ripped off the first section of leg hair and the host screamed.

“That’s not nice, that’s not nice,” Stefanovic managed to say after several strips of hair had been removed and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

“That’s really painful, I don’t know why you do that, why would girls do that,” he said.

Stefanovic was issued with the challenge to wax his right leg for the World’s Greatest Shave and the Leukaemia Foundation by an 11-year-old viewer.

The idea for the challenge came after Stefanovic imitated Angelina Jolie on the Oscars red carpet by hiking up his trouser leg earlier this week.

Nine boss David Gyngell soon got in on the act, offering a $10,000 donation to see both presenters endure the hot wax.

TODAY co-host Ben Fordham said he had already received $17,000 in donation pledges to get his Brazilian wax, which would go ahead on Monday.
