Turning to politics where fireworks are expected on the South Carolina stage. That is the site of the next republican debate. With the attacks getting more heated on the campaign trail, anything can happen. We have coverage for you with nbcs Hallie Jackson covering the republicans. Hallie, good morning. Reporter good morning. This morning, the candidates are getting ready for the debate. The stage is the smallest with six people left in the race. South carolina has a reputation of being a rough and tumble state. Dont expect tonight to be different with republicans already looking ready to rumble. Reporter in front of a rowdy crowd, donald trump taking aim at jeb bush. He has a vicious streak. Reporter online, a different target as trump warns ted cruz on twitter, if he doesnt quote clean up his act, stop cheating will sue him for not being a natural born citizen. There is more than a little irony than donald calling somebody nasty with the insults and vulgarities. Reporter cruz and trump battling for evangelicals in South Carolina. And on the air waves, ad wars intensify. This one from trump on illegal immigration immigration. His killer, an illegal immigrant. Reporter and this from cruz hit not a republican rival, but Hillary Clinton. The ad spoofs the movie office space but a different kind of film that has cruz explaining why he yanked this off the air. Vote for a pretty face next time. It happened with one of the actresses who was there had a more colorful film history than reporter the actress the star of adult movies who says she has no hard feelings. I have no ill will against ted cruz. He has a job to do. Im a middle class working girl. Reporter the job tonight for marco rubio, prove he can bounce back from New Hampshire. Rubio says he is ready. We have to have perspective here. I had one answer i would have done differently. Reporter Rubio Campaign aide tells me he is eager for tonight and ready to take on attacks directly rather than pivot to president obama. Watch for jeb bush to try to land some punches tonight. South carolina hoping its the comeback state for bush. Look for john kasich keeping up momentum after the second place finish in New Hampshire. His tactic is different, guys. He is looking to stay positive well see if that works. Hallie jackson, thank you. Elise jordan is a political adviser. Thank you for being here. Thank you for having me. There are six candidates left. What advice would you give the candidates . Given this is the ninth debate, we know the patterns with each and how they project themselves. People havent done well trying to attack. You look at what Chris Christie did with marco rubio. It was a very effective attack and really harmed rubio, but christie is out. He was a suicide bomber on stage and took rubio out. That is the fine balance these candidates have to navigate between being too nasty and showing a positive vision and keeping in the race. You mentioned marco rubio. There will be an extra focus on him tonight. Yes. He really needs to have a really strong performance. Script and not a robot candidate. There is a focus on that emphasizing that part of his political background. He needs to show he can be more off the cuff and intelligent. Donald trump in South Carolina at last check, he was up around 16 points, i believe. Primary voters in that state are not just evangelical. Nearly 70 of the voters are evangelical. Donald trump did well with evangelical voters in iowa. How is a guy like donald trump doing well with the socalled god voters. It is interesting he is navigating that balance so well so far. I think part of what cruz knows with the opening there, when he did the new york values attack, that was not sailing in the wind. He knew that was effective. What im looking for tonight is trumps use of the foul this is the bible belt and polite culture. That language in front of children is not going to go well. A lot to watch. Elise jordan, thank you. Turning to the democrats where president obama is a major talking behind for Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders after thursdays debate. Nbcs Kelly Odonnell has more on that. Reporter good morning. Hillary clinton and Bernie Sanders will spend part of the day in nevada hoping to get out the vote for the nevada caucuses next weekend. Both spent the night and they were there to help out the state party to raise money for the Humphrey Mondale dinner. It was a record turnout. Bernie sanders spoke first. His Campaign Sees minnesota with a history of electing more liberal candidates as a place but both spoke differently when they referred to president obama. We have got to be honest and to acknowledge we still have a very, very long way to go to create the nation that i know all of us believe we can create. Better off because of his presidency. So i, yes, will build on the progress hes made because i am a progressive who actually likes to make progress. Reporter more and more Hillary Clinton trying to wrap herself in the legacy of president obama. And nevada is that next big showdown and clinton has changed her schedule to spend more time there. So on monday, she will be in nevada and former president bill clinton will take over for her at three fundraisers already back to you. Kelly, thank you. Pope francis is spending his first full day in mexico today arriving last evening to fanfare. Today, the pope travels to areas plagued by drug cartel violence. Later, a special mass.

Zoolander was not a Box Office Hit when it opened, but it was a classic and it made derek and hansel household names. They are back in zoolander 2. He was once the worlds most famous model. But that was a long, long, long time ago. Its been 15 years since we first saw Derek Zoolander strike a pose and stop moving objects. From supermodel to super reinclusive. It is a conspiracy to kill the that gets derek and hansel out of hiding to solve such a mystery. Peace out, world. Were back. Back . Yes, but a lot has changed in the world of high fashion. You are im sorry i cant understand a word youre saying. Sitting down with ben stiller and owen wilson, the beauty and brains behind derek and hansel. We touched on film and politics and origin of blue steel. How are you doing . Good. Legend has it blue steel was inspired by your mirror face. Is there truth in that . I guess part of it came out of the face i would make when i would brush my hair and my wife would say why are you making that face. I would say what face . Owen, do you have one . Yes, i do have one. Owens hansel look has a sound. Beautiful. Its a work of art right there. Only one person can know how to tackle this look. How would Derek Zoolander interpret this look . That is a blue steel. I would call that sad puppy and a dog. We do have to be fair. Senator sanders. How would derek and hansel interpret . Gray steel. Crumbled steel. I personally think that derek and hansel are responsible for some of the magnificent dialogue in cinematic history. What would other magnificent dialogue had derek and hansel been around for a few good men . Did you order the code red . Ill answers the question. Do you want answers . You cant handle the truth. I love you, jack. Dont you do that. Dont say your goodbyes, not yet. Do you understand me . Im so cold. Rose. Youre going to go on and make lots of babies and watch them grow. You will die an old is this really the dialogue . Promise me that youll survive. I promise. Never let go. Ill never let go, jack. Ill never let go. And that never gets old.

You picked a beautiful ring. Thank you. Were never having kids. Mmmmmm. Breathe. I love it here. We are never moving to the suburbs. We are never getting one of those minivan . We are never having another kid. Im pregnant. I am never letting go. For all the nevers in life, we are back on a saturday morning with an important question on this valentines day weekend. What is love . That someeople dont know the answer to. Heres looking at you, kid. You complete me. Its been chronicle kron chronicled on film for decades. Those scenes. Those lines. That love. When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible. It starts with age and culture. What is it . Ask 100 people and you get 100 different answers. Love is awesome. Love is being together. Giving a girl a flower. Love is your first grand child. Yes. Love is when someone like reaches for your food and you dont have the sudden urge to slap their hand way. You know you are in love when your girlfriend than your best friends. Being in love is loving the craziness that every day brings. Love is being patient. Being in love means remember the rest of your life. Look at your wife every day and say its my fault. We tell each other every day. We wake up in the morning with a hug and kiss. And he sings in the shower. Well, thats to make sure youre awake. I love him. Robi ludwig, good morning. Good morning. I know folks come to you all the time. The opinions are going to vary. In your opinion, what is love . How do you know youre in love . Well, i think when you are falling in love when you are in love, you are under the it packs a woll allop. You are seeing your partner through rosetinted glasses. What everyone sees as annoying, you find as adorable. The insurance tensity is turned up. You want to be around this person all the time. You think everybody else wants them as well. There is a physical attraction and intellectual attraction and hopefully compatibility as well. What is the difference between being in love and loving someone . Well, i think it is more intense. So when you love somebody, you dont mind sharing them. You might even match them up with somebody else. When you are in love with somebody, you dont want them with anybody but you. You plan your life around them. When you are falling in love, you are on that roller coaster. Its up, its down. Thank god we dont live like that all the time. It changes. It is different when you are young and meet someone for the first time. All of a sudden you have children. Children seem to change love in a good way. Right. You know, in the end, i think loving somebody is having that calm secure sense of home base. There arent necessarily so many highs or lows. Theres a sense of expansion beyond the two of you into your friends and family. I think its more normal. It is loving who you are when you are around that person and loving who you can be. It is almost like you help each other to become the person you are meant to be in the bestcase scenario. That is a good way to look at it. What is the pressure for valentines day and people not in a relationship . For couples out there who maybe one half of the couple feels they feel they dont have the traditional commitment symbol whatever it may be. When do you know it is time to maybe cut and run . Cut and run somewhere else. Lots of different non traditional relationships today. More people are co habitating more than getting married. If you are to wake up a year from now and your relationship and your life was unfolding the way you wanted it to you are in the relationship you want to be in. What would the day look like . Visualize that and go for that. You need to respect your relationship goals. You have to be direct and say i want marriage and i want kids. Put it out there. If someone cant give that to you, cut your losses. How do you sustain love . Love that lasts a lifetime . You have to first of all look at a persons character and see if you are looking at life in the same direction. Do you have the same goals . Do you want the same things out of life and are you willing to help each other to get it . Love exists within reality. If that exists with what you want and if it does and match up, that can be damaging. You know, studies show that couples who succeed and fails, the couples that succeed have more positivetonegative interactions even when they are fighting. Support each other. Nurture and love. Thank you so much. Robi and ian, thank you. Happy valentines day. Up next, speaking of love, how about a delicious breakfast to help you get in the mood this valentines day weekend.
