SICKENING Interview With Katie Couric
OMG!

<snip>

As Katie Couric preps for her final “Today” show, Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson spent one final morning with Katie.

“How are the nerves?” Shaun asked.

“Good. It's a little like an out of body experience to be honest with you,” Katie said.

And it's no wonder. Less than 12 hours and counting until Katie says goodbye to 15 years of “Today.”

“When will the tears come?” Shaun asked her. :puke:

“Oh gosh. I feel like there's a lot of pressure on me to be very emotional and to cry,” Katie admitted. “If there are tears, they'll be authentic tears and if not, there will be authentic feeling.” :puke: :puke:

And in a touching moment this morning, Mariah Carey presented Katie with a parting gift.

“This is your butterfly since you're leaving and you're free,” Mariah said to Katie as she gave her the present. :rofl:

Access spoke to Mariah about the trinket.

“I think they are very pretty but also symbolize freedom and kind of evolving,” Carey explained. “Obviously this is a new stage in her life so I thought it would be something nice.”

I BEG OF YOU. DO NOT READ ANY MORE. JUST DON'T. :rofl:

3. I wish I had listened to you.
But why start now, eh?


I wonder how CBS feels about her saying she'll tune into NBC. ;) :hi:

He's turning in his grave and Walter & Dan are about to jump in and join him.

Honestly, I'm hoping for double digit rating plummets.

6. Her guest interviews
drove me bananas - the interesting guests hardly got a sentence out before she would interrupt with her own views. Between her and the commercials, the guest might as well have stayed home.

10. You're being unfair. Mariah Carey gave a similar butterly to Bob Schieffer
I'm certain of that. I can't wait to see Al Roker doing the weather each evening on CBS.

11. "You held the nations hand through so many trying times"
Ann Currie this morning (yes I had it on while I was getting ready for work) it was so sappy that Katie even brushed it off and the subject was quickly changed.

:rofl:

Kaite- hated by the right, hated by the left, LOVED down the middle :P

13. Aw, it's like senior year and the newspaper is interviewing yearbook staff
Edited on Wed May-31-06 08:02 AM by jane_pippin
for the very last time. *Sniff* BFF guys!

:puke:

Here's a fun fact:

Shaun Robinson used to host this talk show here in Milwaukee called...Milwaukee's Talking! It came on after the noon news and before the court shows.

17. Which part? The fun fact or my snotty comment?
As for the fun fact, Shaun Robinson was actually pretty good on that show. One of my family members worked for the station it ran on at the time so during the summer when my grandma babysat us she'd make us watch so we could see the name in the credits. After the show ended Shaun got promoted to the network. I remember my relative being happy for her because apparently she is a really smart, nice woman, but sad that she had to do all the ditzy celebrity stuff.

That was a long time ago though.

19. I gagged enough watching the MSNBC newsettes this morning
"Oh my...the end of an era. It's so sad to see Katie go." "Oh yes, Katie held our hands through difficult times" Katie this, Katie that, Katie-did. :puke:

But cheer up, girls. Maybe there's a high-profile promotion in store for one of you!

23. Somewhere in America, Sally Field is laughing her butt off.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Field

She won another Oscar in 1984 for her starring role in Places in the Heart; her gushing acceptance speech is one of the best known of its kind. In it she stated "I haven't had an orthodox career, and I've wanted more than anything to have your respect. The first time I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!" The line ending in "...I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!" is often misremembered as simply "You like me, you really like me!" which has subsequently been the subject of many parodies.


:evilgrin:
