Host Alfonso Ribeiro & the Muppets of Sesame Street on Food

- Yes, Babyface, thank you.

That was great.

- Yes, Babyface!

- Loved it.

You know Elmo's nickname used to be Babyface Monster back in the day?

- Oh, oh, hey, that's- - Do your Babyface pose.

- Really?

- Yeah, do it.

- You wanna see the Babyface pose?

- Yeah.

You're gonna love this.

- Okay, go ahead, go ahead.

- Oh.

- Oh, yeah, I don't- - Oh.

- I don't think there's any resemblance.

All right.

I am so glad you're both here with me today.

And what else have you guys been doing this summer?

- Oh, well, Elmo has been spending time with his family.

- Yeah, yeah.

And me, grilling cookie burgers in the backyard.

- Yeah.

- Delicious.

- Yeah.

- Mwah!

- Yeah.

- You know, we've been traveling from Sesame Street to explore lots of new places, Mr. Alfonso.

- Wow.

You know what?

There are so many places in America you can visit, right?

I know.

- Yeah, that's true.

- Yeah, and I love to take my family out in our RV.

We do some camping and head out to iconic American locales, like the Grand Canyon, Glacier National Park, and Yellowstone National Park.

Yeah, we go all over.

- Wow.

- And guess what?

My family is here with me tonight at this amazing July 4th celebration.

- They are?

- Right in the front row right there.

- Oh, hi!

- [Cookie Monster] Hi, family!

- We love you.

- Hi.

- You know.

They love seeing all these great performances.
