Here are the numbers in case youre wondering. 5, 16, 22, 23, 29 and the powerball was 6. There were lots of people who were lucky like we were who spent 5 and won 4. Its like theater. Going to the theater world. Almost 9 Million People won smaller prizes. And were one of them. Some people actually won 1 million. There were how many people . I may be one of those people i came home last night and frank said, i want to show you something. Usually when he says that its something different. But this time it was two powerball tickets. Something different. We may have won and frank has probably thrown them away thinking we didnt win them. Honey, check them. We might have won money. If you didnt win, dont feel bad. We were looking at odds how it is to win. You have more of a chance of getting hit by killed by a vending machine. Odds are one in 112 million. Is that a vending machine minding its own business sitting there . One you kick . You put your money it in, it doesnt come out, you shake it because thats what people do. Then it tips over and kills you. You have a better chance of that. Better chance of getting attacked by a shark. Which is always fun. 1 in 11. 5 million. The odds of you becoming president , 1 in 10 million. Better chance of being killed by bees. 1 in 6 million. A better chance of dying from using a righthanded product incorrectly if youre lefthanded. One in four Million People are stupid enough to do that. 70 of the people who land sudden windfalls lose the money within several years. The story used to be shocking, the Lottery Winner who sleeps under the bridge in the end then it became a common story. Which is sad.

The concept of the book is you find a significant event in someones life like they won the lottery, lost a job, lost a loved one, then ten years later. To see what happens. Were doing the Lottery Winner in our next one. It was big here last night, the tree lighting. It brings hundreds of thousands of people it seems like. You cannot move when that happens.

Jay leno thought it was funny matt is such a germophobe. Al roker got a case of laryngitis yesterday morning and was sitting next to matt lauer. Matt is a bit of a germophobe.

M. , apparently according to tmz and other sources, she was at a night club. These things never happen at church. She was at a club at 4 00 in the morning. Someone was sitting at an adjacent booth and there was some exchange of words. Lindsay said Something Like give me my space. They say at the end of the whole deal Lindsay Lohan allegedly pun. Lindsay in the face. She was on the way leaving and the police intercepted her. I guess thats her under the coat. How many times is she going to take the perp walk . She is always on tv saying im done with partying. Shes been saying that a lot lately. Done with it. The new me. Thats the girl who got okay. Maybe she wasnt drinking, but ive never been in a club at 4 00 in the morning in my life. Ive been in clubs before like around 11 00. Most people are drinking. Most people are a little uninhibited. What are you doing in a club at 4 00 . Every time she goes to one, it seems like. Somebody, please, please take care of her. Definitely. I want to stop doing Lindsay Lohan stories. We were hoping to do a great one this week with talking about her comeback. Even then she wasnt showing professional behavior. She wasnt showing up on time. Can somebody get her up into a studio on time . Right. You think by now her parents are watching. Isnt there a point where they just kind of she is an adult. You cant make somebody do something. I dont know. You know what you cant make a zebra and horse do or a pony . A pony and a zebra . You cant make them stay in prison when they want to get out. They broke out. This was a Staten Island petting zoo. Lets make a break for it, go, go, go. They were running down the street. Some guy had his video camera. They heard lindsay was at a club. They were going to take the ferry and come over and party. Apparently the zebra said he wasnt going to do it, but the pony went and he followed. You know how you always blame the other guy .

He plays the older, more opinionated bossy brother. Take a look. She actually suggested i let her sneak the baby out one day and get her baptized. I think its genius. We are not baptizing the baby. Why not . Corey is jewish. I thought corey was an atheist. Hes still jewish. There are some light moments in. This but there are heavy duty ones, too. Tell us a little bit about for those who havent seen the movie, where it came from in that brain of yours. I wanted to make a film that took a look at a big family. A couple of my best friends, one is one of nine, one is one of 12. I always heard Great Stories about the dynamics in those families. The three oldest kids, three middle kid, three youngest kids sometimes have very different opinions about their parent, what a good or bad job the parents did. Thats where i started. This takes a look at seven adult siblings who have to deal with the fact the father that walked out on the family 20 years ago has returned and he wants to spend christmas with the family. Hes dying. Yeah. You gave it away. I didnt give it away. We dont know what happens. Now we got that out of the way. People come back for all kinds of reasons. Why did he show up after 20 sorry. You didnt tell me not to say. The cast, you took your old favorites and brought them all back. Talk about your full cast. Its like ive got two generations of cast members and two parts of my career. The early mcmullen season and these later films ive been doing. I knew i was going to work with she is so great. Connie here. Speaking of connie, i knew i wanted to work with connie britton. And mike maglonagen. I said why wait till then . How about you join this family . To work with connie and mike again it was as if no time has passed. It was great. The underlying theme is forgiveness. Is it possible in that kind of a familial environment for everybody to come to some point of acceptance and forgiveness . I think thats the theme of the movie. Its a big part of christmas. I think this family looks at it like, okay, maybe we cant forgive this guy for everything hes done, but for tonight, for this one day, christmas, lets forgive him without giving away the ending i didnt give away the ending. He doesnt die in the film. He doesnt die, okay . You said the script just poured out of you. Tyler perry gave me great advice. He goes, look, i rewatched your first two films. In 15 years, why havent you ever gone back and explored those types of characters, that world and make that kind of film about a family again . An honest water waurt dwarts and all look at it. In real life because we know this father did something thats tough, your dad is completely you keep writing that kind of father figure. What does your father who is a wonderful man say about that . We were at a film festival. He was at the screening. During the q and a i never got to explain to the audience my dad isnt anything like this guy. After he goes youre a real pain, youve got to tell these folks that i am not a whatever. How can people see this film . You have a new way of letting people see these film. You bypass the middle man. A lot of indy films followed suit. The film is available on vod. Which is movies on demand.

One journalist got so upset, took his clothes off and went streaking on the plane. She finally addressed it. It was like the elephant in the room. She said theres the streaker right there. What did she say finally . She said i needed to use the time to sleep, to rest my voice. This is something she had never done before. Was kind of an experiment. She didnt go crazy. She wasnt out partying. Still. You dont keep people waiting three hours and bring them all with you. It sounded like a good idea on paper. Didnt work out.

Justin bieber, remember the woman who accused him of having a baby with her. This is back up again. Paternity is back. We thought that was over. It was supposedly settled.

He was on the road, the world tour and said he did it and took off. No one knows where the dna test is. So apparently, it hasnt been settled. And that child is in this world. Yes, it is.

Whether it snuck up on you or when you hit 40 or you stuffed yourself like a thanksgiving turkey last week, belly fat is difficult to lose. Joy bauer has Healthy Snack options and help you shrink that stubborn middle area and help you reduce diabetes. That is a problem area for a lot of women. Bottom line is, you cant spot reduce, but there are tricks you can do to lose fat all over. The best part is that the belly fat tends to mobilize first. Really . These foods work. Green tea. Everybody loves a soothing cup of tea. Now we have research if you sip on either green tea or black tea before a meal or with the meal, it helps to actually play interference with the breakdown stop it. Really . Yes. Starch meaning rice, pasta or potatoes. Before or during . Before or during. It can be green or black. All tea is virtually caloriefree and fills you up with fluid so you wind up pulling back on the main meal. You eat less and you will lose the belly fat. I like that one. Whats next . Take advantage of the festive varieties now, cinnamon and spice. Lots of holiday play vors flavors. I called these stuffed cukes. Im replacing a cracker with a lowcalorie, lowcarb cucumber. You get the crunch. What is that tuna . You can do chicken salad, tuna salad, crab salad. This is a holiday inspired hors doeuvre. Thanks to our kitchen good ess. Use light mayo or nonfat greek yogurt. We need to try this. Its delicious. You can leave the skin on or off with the cucumber. Nice part about a cucumber, its more than 95 water. The more water you take in, the more water and sodium you flush out. A lot of people have trouble with cucumbers. They return on them, shall we say. Nice way of putting it. Then you would only eat the stuffing. I think that pecans should be the official nut of the holidays. When you toast pecans in your home, nothing makes your kitchen smell more fabulous. They are very low carb. Its a filling, fiber, you have to stop at about two handfuls, but if you sprinkle these with a little cinnamon, the cinnamon helps to keep your blood sugar stable. Between the pecans and the cinnamon its really an ultimate hungersquelching snack. This is my goto food. I need to eat more fruit.

Amazing crunch. 100 calories and a perfect snack. For anyone looking to lose weight. You know you want it. I do. Bean dip. Beans are a combo of protein and fiber, which helps to expand in your stomach and keep you feeling full. You eat less. For a holiday dip there is nothing easier than taking a can of white cannelini beans, draining it, rinsing it, tossing it in the Food Processor with minced rosemary, garlic, a Little Olive Oil and salt and pepper. Taste it. Dark chocolate. Thats what ive been waiting for. When youre faced with cupcakes, brownies and fudge, go for the dark chocolate if they have it. Europeans came up with a study that shows there is something in dark chocolate that not only tastes so good but helps make our insulin more sensitive. When your insulin is mow sensitive, your blood sugars are stable, you feel fuller and lose belly fat. Dark chocolate almonds are the best. Go for it. Thank you so much. This is today on nbc.
