Pat Sajak is on the receiving end of slight criticism after "Wheel of Fortune" viewers didn’t take too kindly to a joke he made to longtime co-host Vanna White.
While nearing the end of Wednesday’s episode of the popular series, Sajak and White, 65, were engaging in their usual banter after professional opera singer Ashley Fabian won the bonus puzzle and a total of $67,410 in cash and prizes.
It was during their back-and-forth that Sajak asked White, "Are you an opera buff at all?" To which his co-host of more than three decades answered, "Yes, I’m not a buff, but I like opera." In response, Sajak, 75, said, "Have you ever watched opera in the buff?

"I feel like I just witnessed a #metoo moment on @WheelofFortune?" one fan tweeted of the conversation, while another fan wrote that it was an "inappropriate comment."
