This kind of geeky guy who are making out. Its a close shot. People say i cant watch it, i cringe, i turn away. So so were making you watch it yet again. Were seeing enjoy it, hoda. You think america wants to see more of this, then lets show a little more. Heres the question. The question is this. Why does it gross people out . Lets do it in slow motion. Really. Slow motion. We can do that. Cant we . But why . What is it about now, if they were two people who if it was bar and im asking. Do people feel uncomfortable when they see a beautiful person and a not quite as beautiful person making out . Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I bet the mother of that boy thinks hes beautiful. Dont try to make me feel bad. These are questions that everyone turned away. Heres a will ferrell ad. Im not saying will ferrell is not a hottie, but he is also making out with a woman who is looking out of a bus window, and then suddenly they go in for it. Boom. Now okay . Now what is he, on a basketball jersey . He is on a bus. Greyhound. I dont know, its an old milwaukees best commercial. Beer. Of course, it is. Oh. Now why is this something that people arent, like, wow, thats hot turnon . They have their clothes on. Second of all different times in history an throw poe logically, the worlds view of beauty has been very different through the years. Remember when they used to do the like the heavy, very heavy set large bosom. That was considered hot, gorgeous. Now all of a sudden its the skinny its people considered gorgeous or not. By todays standards bar rafaelli is considered hot by todays standards. The young man that she is sucking face with he is kind of geeky. Is not considered hot. Is it because of the imbalance . If you watch a soap opera or some other they are equally balanced, hodawoman. Lets watch some of this. Were going to watch making out for our whole show. This for some reason instead of everybody going ooh, its too close. Theyre saying oh, thats hot. They are right there on the ladder equally. I cant see the guy, but i think so from the back. Its about equal footing. Okay. Just wondering why everyone was so oohed out about the other one. They still seem to be. Everybody keeps talking about how much this kid was paid to do the commercial. I asked our producers, find out how much the girl was paid. So bad. Although, it turns out i felt a little bit for the kid because it seemed exploitive of him. He loved it. He is so happy. Is he in heaven. He is getting calls. He is getting jobs. He has gone from please. He has gone from being like 63 movies he has been in as an extra. No speaking part. He will probably get in the next jonah hill movie or something. I bet youre right. He was here the other day. Yeah. Do you know whats similar . We should always take our cue from the person that is at the center of the controversy. If that kid is not upset about it, we shouldnt be. When governor christie was on david letterman. Theres a funny bit. Governor christie goes on letterman, i dont know if you saw this, and he gets in there and he now, letterman has always been making fun of christie and his weight. He came on and decided to give it back down to him. Take a listen. I make jokes about you. Not just one or two. Not just ongoing here and there intermittent, but i didnt know this was going to be this long. Heres two of them that we put together. First one was celebrity birthday today, Chris Christie turned 50, and he blew out the candles on his cake and he wished for another cake. [ applause ] this one i thought i dont know if this was one of your best ones, but i think its topical given what went on yesterday. A billion dollars will be spent on potato chips for super bowl sunday, and thats just at governor christies house. [ laughter ] now, he seems to be he is having a lot of fun with it. He is having fun with it, and didnt he also say he said, listen, im the healthiest fat man youve ever met in your life. He said his cholesterol was great, his blood sugar was great and everything. I happen to adore that man. Hes really funny. I met him just once at a giants game. He fills the room. I dont mean just bulk. Everybody loves him. He is teasing. He is funny. I didnt even see him snacking on anything. He just has a great personality. I wonder if he you know sometimes you tell the jokes that someone else doesnt. Like youre out there in front. You get ahead of it. You want to get ahead of it. I wonder if it at all hurts his feelings when he hears a lot of fat jokes. I cant imagine its great to hear constantly. I think the best thing you can do is always be selfdeprecating. About it. I think in the privacy of anybodys life, and weve seen this a lot through the joy fit club, people that are that overweight have Serious Health issues ultimately. They just do. Almost every single one of them would love to take a magic pill and be thin. For whatever reason. It can be a cruel world, and a lot of bullying takes place because of it. I always cringe when i watch, like, a heavy set female comedian make fat jokes. I dont know why. I know that its theres something about it that just makes me kind of cringe a little. I feel like the way he handled it on this show was great. I mean, i thought he really handled it. People in your life that have been teased and have had painful experiences, so youre sensitive to it. I think anyone who has ever been friends or known or been with someone thats overweight gets the feeling, or if youve been there yourself and i have been there, too, and you think is that a funny thing . Are they laughing at me . You feel eh. You ever see the difference between hoda and myself, as if its not obvious . We didnt have our cards ready today, so they brought us these. I just put mine nicely in front of me and i tore mine. Okay . Because i dont know why. I would love to have a psychiatrist tell us why. I was totally content with our nice neat little pages that i could like do this to. Pick one up, put them underneath to the next topic. But hoda has now no idea what the next topic is. She has a lot of empty pages that only get in the way, and why is my question. I dont know. I wanted to cut it in half, but you know what i almost did when i saw it . You know what i used to love to do as a kid . No, you didnt. This is going to take forever. I did this, and then if you are really careful, you can just do this and, oh, my gosh, it is so exciting and fulfilling when it look how clean. Look at that. Look at that. No, you dont need thats the difference. Right there. You got it. How about a cute baby picture . We have one for you. This is shakiras baby picture. A lot of people god bless them. Oh, come on. A lot of people sell their baby pictures, but not shakira. I love that about her. She decided to ask people to give Charity Donations of between 5 or whatever for unicef, and thats so sweet. Shes one of their international ambassadors, and she said instead of baby gifts, instead of anything for me, im blessed beyond belief. I have everything i could ever need or wish for. I love that. In his name grant some money or gifts or something to unicef so that other less fortunate others can have their basic needs covered. Its very sweet. That says everything about her. We have a johnsons baby contest because maybe your baby will be selected. We should say, usually sara does that for us, but shes gone all this week because shes out in l. A. Shooting great pizzas. Were excited. In conjunction with johnsons baby, were celebrating moms everywhere. Every week were going to feature your little bundle of joy right here in our studio. Send a photo. The birth date and the weight and some words of wisdom about parenthood. Youll have your babys photo shown right here shown on friday. Okay. Go to klgandhoda. Com. I cant wait until tomorrow. Hoda, i didnt realize what a problem you had until i started seeing how excited you were getting to wednesday. I keep telling everyone its new years eve, they go, what are you talking about . What if i said, you know what, i think this has been good for me, were not going to do this tomorrow. First of all, you know you would never say that. Lets begin right there. You know, we need to recount our calories. I know. All this time its like every day dont wake up and dont read the papers because everything youve been doing that you thought was right is now going to be wrong. Dont drink coffee. Drink coffee. Dont drink red wine. Drink red wine. Now theyre saying that the accuracy of the calories on some of those meals diet meals. Are can be wrong by 50 . So if you are wondering why youre not losing that weight that you thought maybe because the numbers on the box arent really what you are getting. Maybe Chris Christie is on one of those diets and its just not working. Because its not accurate. They say theyre calling theyre counting calories now by a system that is over like 100 years old. Its ancient. They need to do it. Its probably so much other stuff in there, too. You know what the problem is with our entire food supply . Its preservatives. I think thats why theres so much more obesity and so much more illness in the world. We were meant to eat fresh food. Well, lets eat pancakes. Okay. At least theyre fresh. I hop free pancake days. Heres the deal. In return, diners will be asked to leave a voluntary donation to support the Childrens Miracle Network hospital. Which is a fantastic program. We have a couple of people wow enjoying pancakes. Its a pancake eating contest. 30 seconds on the clock, please. Joe, joe, joe. Hes already started. Go, go, go. Now go. Joe has been eating since the morning. Joe has the greatest body, and every time i see him he is eating. He eats all day like a garbage disposal. Joe look at joe. Dont choke. Dont choke. Oh, its going to be oh, oh, oh. O. J. Theyre very neat about it. The man is an animal. I think i think joe got it. Joes got it. We want to give a shoutout right here to cory and jessica who are standing right there. We met them at the chris evert t tennis tournament. They actually paid money. Theyre crazy enough to come join us. Thanks for coming. Lots of big names here today. Smash hit on the small screen Katharine Mcphee with us.

Thats the cold truth if you are a single lady, then you know whats coming up more of today on this boozeless tuesday. We dont need anything else. We are here with the talented motherdaughter writing team, Academy Award winner Julie Andrews and emma walton hamilton. They are bestselling authors, and together they have written 27 books with more on the way. The new book is a great one. Its called the very fairy princess follows her heart. Oh, my nieces are loving it. Its so i love this one so much. Welcome, ladies. Such a funky little girl, isnt she . Shes really feisty. Shes based on somebody you actually know. Shes inspired by my daughter. Yeah. Very much so. Yeah. She has kind of taken on a life of her own, hasnt she . Eventually when you write a number of a books in the series she suddenly sprang to life, and you eventually know what shes going to say and do and all of that. How does the writing process work with you two . Who does what . Very much together. We write every line together but we finish each others sentences. Sorry about that. Thats okay. Its very organic. Some writing partners take a chapter each or, you know it needs to have a singular voice through it. In other words, you got to start together and finish together. You know exactly otherwise its two voices making the one character. We have different strengths. Lets discuss those. In writing. Whats your mothers strength . Shes great about the big idea. She has these wonderful sweeps of imagination. Big picture. Shes great. All over the entrances and the exits. And what about you . What would you say is emmas strength . Shes all the nuts and bolts. Shes the big ark. The first act and the second act. Mom weve got to go here and do this here. Its more of a director thing, right . Yeah. I guess so. An editing thing. By far the better writer. Tremendous writer. Oh really . Well, in this book the character faces a little problem when she loses something that she needs so bad, and a lot of kids run into these kind of things. It was beautiful how it was dealt with, too, in the book. She thinks shes a fairy but shes far from perfect. Shes not at all what a princess should be. Her socks are about her ankles. Its more about sparkle and individuality and letting that come forward and celebrating it. Exactly. You know, when she forgets her valentines, and she has to somehow save the day, she tells each of her friends what she loves about them best. Thats a great lesson for grownups, too. Theres a reason theres 27 of them. You know, she says i like you you sparkle because or when. Youre going to do a little sparkle now with christmas coming up. Well have another one. You come back and see us. Indeed. Speaking of directing, tell us about i just met your niece, your beautiful niece jessica out in los angeles a couple of weeks ago. She said, yes, my aunt she said she just finished directing a musical of a book you had written, and maybe its going to travel. Tell us a little bit about that. I hope so. From your lips to everybodys ears. You talk about it a bit. The book is a Great American musical. Its a love letter musical. Its about mice who perform anytime the great theater. We had the Great Fortune of it turning into a musical, and mom directed it. The music is great, and the lyrics are great, and the choreography is smashing. The audiences love it. Loved it. Were very close to being ready to really take it out on the road. This was a workshop, but it was a workshop with an audience. And they do gat work. They do. They do. Do you enjoy directing . Was that something that you like . I do. What is it about it that you like . I think its handing on, giving back. Also instead of just being in the middle and hoping that the big picture is working, i can stand back and look at the big picture, and i love it. Its a control freak thing. You nailed me completely right. Thats what i think every time i hear it. Very controlling lady. Control freak. We wish you the best of luck with this book. Not that you need it. Its a terrific book.

He is a professional dating coach and author of the new book its your move, how to play the game and win the man you want. Is the man you want nice to see you. Is the man you want different than the man you need . It could be. Is that part of the problem . It is part of the problem. A lot of the time i mean, what we have seen proven thousands of times over is that women will decide whether a man is a no or a maybe within like the first 30 to 90 seconds. When you look at them. Exactly. Thats not the whole story. But if you are looking for a longterm relationship and you are out, say, at a bar or a club or a coffee shop or a party, whats the kind of guy who can make a great impression on you within the first 30 to 90 seconds . Its someone who has done it before a lot, so its maybe a player, someone who is well practiced. Maybe not looking for a longterm thing. Exactly. Whats the right move to move them . How do you weed through and find the right guy . Half the game is won or lost before you even leave the house. Who are you going out with . Its very important how you dress. How you dress is important too, but also if you want to go out with a couple of girlfriends. Not a Massive Group because thats intimidating for men. Not your whole sorority. Exactly. Not just with one friend because then a guy comes to meet you, and you have your friend standing there awkwardly. Three is the charm. Start in three. Wear something or bring Something Interesting that a guy can comment on. Like lets say you got a shiny purse. Or nice cleavage. That doesnt work you say usually . Thats not quite where were going with this. I told you thats not where youre going, hoda. I hate even sitting here. Theres no straight man who cares enough about your purse to ask you about it. If he does make a comment, its because he wants to get to know you, and you have opened the door for the conversation. Maybe is he gay and wants to know who designed it. Then you have an interesting conversation. Then you have a good friend. Whats the other way other than bringing a prop . Lets say theres a specific guy you want to meet. Theres really subtle ways to get him to come over. Like the eye contact thing or even bumping into them. But dont spill his drink, you said. Try not to. I ended up dating someone who did that. Thats where i learned that it didnt last, did it . We broke up, im, like, you shouldnt have spilled that drink on me. I remember. And you talk about how if you are a pretty girl, then dress pretty. If you are not so pretty girl, dress interesting. I think its play to your strengths. Its so important to go to your strengths. Im with guys as theyre going out to bars or clubs or coffee shops, and theyre deciding who to approach and who theyre interested in. I see so often that guys would much rather approach the woman who is confident in her own skin who looks comfortable with herself and who maybe is telling a story about herself with how shes dressed than the 25th most attractive woman in the room thats competing on that ground. Its hard but its sad. Yeah. Im not looking at you when i say that. I didnt. I know you thought that, and i wasnt. I was saying i think you want to ask a question now. Right, hoda . You have asked every question, and im done with this segment. It seems to be over. The single one didnt even ask a question. Its fine. Im going to the handy man segment thats coming up next. Theyre five guys who i think might be right for you, hoda. Were going to meet the models who remodel right after this. Good morning to you. Im meteorologist chris warren with your Weather Channel forecast. Today were watching still some snowshowers with a clipper working across the northeast. Were going to have a chance for some snow throughout parts of the upper midwest. Coldest air still closest to the canadian border, getting close to the freezing mark here in minneapolis. Anytime you get above the freezing mark in minneapolis this time of year, it almost feels balmy. Temperatures will be above freezing in chicago. And were going to see temperatures quite mild in the southeast. That changes on thursday, a system in texas right now moves across the gulf coast states, brings rain and cooler temperatures. So say goodbye to those readings around 70 degrees because things will cool off. The next low moving through on thursday bringing a chance for snow here, chicago youre kind of in the middle. Going to have to wait and see which type of precipitation you get, whether its rain, ice or snow. But by thursday the temperatures will be into the 20s in minneapolis, coming down here still cold throughout the northeast. Boston is going to be 26. Friday is going to be a big day to watch for. Later today again on thursday, really Pay Attention to the Weather Channel for the changes that may be coming with the forecast. Because the way things are look now, this potentially could be a big storm for boston and parts of new england and the northeast. Friday into saturday. Saturday whatever happens theyre still lingering and moving off. Well see the chance for snow decreasing, though, by the second half of the weekend were watching a new system moving into the plains here. There will be some snow associated with it. Also rain, possibly some Severe Weather this weekend throughout parts of texas and throughout parts of the Southern Plains as well. And then on monday were also going to see things be a little bit on the messy side throughout parts of the great lakes. Remember weekdays on the Weather Channel wake up with al.
