For the second time in under five months, Al Roker was forced to begin Today’s third hour by announcing the sudden departure of a co-host. On Thursday morning, he opened Today’s Take with a heartfelt acknowledgment that Tamron Hall had not renewed her contract with NBC News, saying:
Because humans contain multitudes, I am currently worrying about both the fate of our democracy/world as well as the fate of a long-running daytime television show hosted by people who make millions of dollars a year. Though considerably less destructive than, say, global thermonuclear war—or even a total collapse of…
On January 9, 2007, Steve Jobs stood in front of a crowd at the Macworld convention in San Francisco and unveiled his three-in-one iPod/phone/internet communicator. He called it the iPhone, the world shook, and Meredith Vieira just shrugged it off.
At the top of the 9:00 am hour of NBC’s Today Monday morning, better known as Today’s Take, the first thing Tamron Hall and Al Roker spoke about was the elephant not in the room: Billy Bush. But because they had better things to talk about—like the substance of Sunday night’s debate and a delicious-looking recipe for…
Hey, it's the sequel to the Matt Lauer photoshop nobody asked for! Look, do you; if you've got a whole closet full of expensive bondage gear I'm just happy you've found your bliss. But I've only got one thing to say about Ellen Degeneres 'shopping various Today show cast members into BDSM attire and that's RED RED RED…
The Today show always gets really really really into Halloween, and this year the theme was classic TV Throwback Thursday. The perfect excuse to get Matt Lauer in a red swimsuit.
This morning on Today, Nick Offerman and his champion 'stache stopped by to promote their — I assume the 'stache wrote at least a couple chapters — new book Paddle Your Own Canoe: One Man's Fundamentals for Delicious Living. To make the outdoorsy Offerman feel at home, the Today Show staff had another one of their…
After admitting on The Talk last week to undergoing eye enlargement surgery at the behest of a racist Dayton, Ohio TV studio back in '95, Julie Chen has clarified that she has not had a nose job. Any difference you see above is due to expert contouring, witchcraft and wizardry.
Last night on Twitter, Morning Joe host Mika Brzezinski posted a photo of herself on a scale, weighing in at 135.9 lbs., with the caption, "My weight. One year ago today I was 118 and felt fat. I feel good about this actually."
Today in Tweet Beat, Mandy Moore randomly makes a Bryan Adams/Ryan Adams comment to her husband RYAN Adams, Miley Cyrus has a weird definition of what kind of song constitutes a "BANGER" (hint: not "We Can't Stop") and Charlie Sheen magically turns himself back into a family man with one photo.
Cannot. Stop. Watching.
A lot of people worried about the future of Vine — the app that allows you to create looping 6-second videos using only the power of your smart phone — when Instagram announced its new video feature this past Friday. Never fear, worriers! Brooklyn Al Roker is here! And he is going to single-handedly save Vine with his…
This morning, around 7:30 a.m. on the Today show, Matt Lauer announced that he had intended to bring viewers a live, exclusive interview with Paula Deen — but she hadn't shown up at the NBC studios.
In his first publicized trip to the U.S. since August's disastrous dongscapade, Prince Harry and his Prince Hairy will be touring the states again this May "on behalf of charities with which the Prince is closely associated." You have two months to ready the slip-and-slide and the Jell-O.
The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards — which held its 26th annual event yesterday in Los Angeles — has got to be the most enjoyable awards show ever. From the bright, youthful clothes to the slime, celebrities actually look like they're having fun. Kristen Stewart smiles. It's that awesome. You cannot look at these…
Last week Rex Reed—the septuagenarian film critic who publishes the kind of reads that other vicious old queens would only say privately into a martini glass—wrote a negative review of Melissa McCarthy's body, as seen in Identity Thief, calling it "tractor-sized," referring to her as a "female hippo" and claiming…
Al Roker pooping his pants at the White House made the rounds yesterday because it's pretty hilarious when someone shits their pants. The only thing that even comes close to being in the same realm of funny is a dog riding a horse. Other feelings being expressed over Roker's public shart share: Sadness, bewilderment,…
Last night on Dateline, Al Roker was supposed to be sharing how he and his family intended to stay healthy in 2013, which is ugh-put-me-to-sleep-so-boring, but there was a beautiful little anecdote in there about the time he sharted at the White House.
Thanks to the antics of nine-month-old Luca Cruz, new mom Hilary Duff now prefers to get her fuck on in the morning with husband, retired Canadian ice hockey player (well, I think he's still Canadian) Mike Comrie. "[Sex after having a baby is] definitely different," she tells Us Weekly. I'm so exhausted at the end of…
As you may recall, in penance for her pro-Israel Tweet, Kim Kardashian planned a trip to Bahrain to learn about the Middle East hawk some milkshakes.
