Zac Efron vs. Kathie Lee Gifford

Zac Efron appeared on The Today Show this morning to promote his new film and this weekend's SNL appearance. Little did he know that Kathie Lee -- whose singing son, Cody, Zac played on SNL -- was waiting in the wings to ambush the poor actor.

In rollers and holding a headshot of her dear baby boy, Kathy said she wouldn't let her son "leave the house" with Zac's signature coif, yet urged the star to call her son: "no really, he wants you to call him." Is this actually an SNL sketch?
