Other things he does every day. Were listening to your jam right now, earth, wind and fire. Number one song. Good shot. Little big shots, itll be a hit, first of all, because youre good with the kids but its not a competition, right . Everybody wins. If you have a competition, youre going to have children crying. Nobody wants that. Right. But they all are so gifted, man, with what they do. Oh. We let them come out and do world. We just have fun with them and we talk. They just do some amazing stuff, man. Like americas got talent meets kids say the darndest things. Thats right. The best part for me is the interview. When you sit there and treat children like adults, they have some real stuff for you. Oh, yes. Because you cant prep them, you know. They dont have publicists yet. Do they tell you what mom and they say stuff about their parents and the parents are in the audience, more fitified. Im dying laughing. Its the highlight of my day. Then you have the steve harvey show, which is killing it. Im blessed. I like jobs because i like options.

Yes, you are. Yeah. Youre a king maker. Im going to have donald trump on there soon. You have to have him on. Id pay money to watch you and donald trump. You should. Thats a pay per view event. Call steve, donald. Well talk more about what steve is up to in a minute. We want to get to the news that everybody is paying attention to this morning. That is the passing of the former first lady nancy reagan. She died of congestive heart california. Natalie is at the Ronald Reagan president ial library in simi valley, california, with more. Good morning. Nancy reagan is being regarded as one of the most influential first ladies. So devoted to her husband, president Ronald Reagan, but she also made her mark on her own with initiatives. Now, we look back at her life. Reporter nancy reagan is being remembered this morning as a formidable first lady who was the 54 towering figure behind Ronald Reagan. President and Michelle Obama said she redefined the role of first lady. Former president and laura bush called her influence on the white house complete and lasting. But beneath that sweet and proper exterior was a soul of steel. Hardened following the assassination attempt against the president just 69 days into his first term. That changed everything. Former reagan chief of staff nancys number one priority became protecting ronnie. She was very, very much his protector. She could be tough. Reporter shes also being remembered with fondness and affection for the part she played in the twilight of her love story with the president. When he developed alzheimers disease and nancy took on her most difficult and poignant role as protector and soul mate for what she called the long goodbye. The reagans son ron spoke to matt by phone. They had gone through a lot together. They had looked forward to, you know, what they used to refer to as their golden years, where they could sit back and reminisce and all of that. She was very saddened that their golden years would be few. Theirs was such a beautiful love story. Certainly being celebrated as part of her legacy here. In the meantime, shes been remembered for her work. She was among the first of first with her just say no antidrug campaign. She also became a powerful voice and advocate for Stem Cell Research during her husbands long battle with alzheimers disease. Mrs. Reagan will be buried later on sometime this week here right next to her husband at the president ial library in simi valley. Back to you. Natalie, thanks so much. We appreciate it. I was talking to a historian this morning who said, without nancy reagan, theres no governor reagan and theres no president reagan. She was the driving force behind him getting into politics and campaigning and even when he lost in 1976, to try again in 80. In many ways, she shaped this country. Whats interesting, too, her pop culture influence. For people around her age, i remember her making an strokes. She was in the say no to drugs campaign. Whatever people may think of it. It was criticized for being simplistic, but it was a pop culture moment and an education moment. That was my recollection of her. I thought she was really classy. I thought she was really classy right up there with jackie and Michelle Obama. They were very, very classy. And strong. You have these strong women who keep their identity while supporting, obviously, the most powerful person in the world. Thats right. Not to change the subject too much, but we were in chicago yesterday. Tamron, myself and dylan dreyer, for the 16th annual polar plunge for the special olympics. Steve is shaking his head already. So youre not an advocate of going in for the polar plunge . Youll write the check but black people dont polar plunge. Wait a minute. I dont know what made you think it was a brilliant idea. Im surprised youre here. It was to be honest, it was tamrons idea. It was my idea. It was her idea. We thought tamron, you know al went in. That was a real plunge. Tamron, you tried not to get your hair wet. Thats not true. Dont stereotype me. I am sick and have been for three weeks. I can stereotype. Other black people cant stereotype. You didnt want to get your hair wet. Thats what that was. How many times in different bodies of water, where my hair i dont mind. My doctor at the last minute said i could do it. I cant still hear in my ears. When i went back i dont remember going back. I said to al, i think i blacked out. I just remr water touching and boom and boom. You had to get a doctors excuse to polar plunge . She has a bronchial thing. Lady gaga was there. Pd, fire, gagas fiance was there. In reality, and well have more, theres gaga, who didnt get her hair wet and shes not once again, count them. There were other black people. You and al. I saw them. I didnt see any there. Its not true. No, they werent. They were. Youre saying they were there. Theres no footage. Were going to show it. No footage. Its a controversy. Yesblack and blue. Its not what it is. How cold was it, al . Was it a cold day in chicagosome. 38 degrees. Last year was 18 degrees and they had to chunk out ice. No ice. In the end, 4. 3 million special olympic athletes. So you can still write a check. I got the check. Hes ready. Ill write the check. I cant write a steve check, but i can write a check. White one we can agree on. Willie will take care of the ill be the dot. Congratulations. Well done. Miami heat mascot, bernie, celebrating his birthday last night. He has a birthday, apparently. During a game against the sixers. Heres the dear, it was a stunt for a Guinness World record. Most mascots flipped over. Were getting specific. Mascot. That wasnt a gag . I dont think so. Purpose. Look at this. Oh oh he was happy about it though. Meanwhile, that guy dont want to be a mascot no more. Which would you want, polar plunge or that . To be on the receiving end of that . Polar plunge. Im going to polar plunge then. You cant do it, do a flip on my zig er zipper. No, no flip on my zip. Im an adult. I have plans. Do you really . I have a vacation im going on. I wanted to really work out for that. Marjorie is coming back. Willie, nothing . Just smile. I thought wed have a good time, but there was a mascot. Al roker, dont you have something to show us . Excuse me . Oh, my gosh. In the weather world. Oh. Well, we are looking at Severe Weather coming in. Weve got this slow moving low pressure system not going anywhere. High pressure is dominating. Its a ridge of high pressure, so this low cant move anywhere. That means were going to have recurring storms pushing on through. Look for the heavy thunderstorms from san antonio to dallas, up to wichita today. Thats whats that is your latest weather. Thank you, al.

He told me to use pronamel. Its gonna help protect the enamel in your teeth. It allows me to continue to drink my coffee and to eat healthier, and it was a real easy switch to make.

Darby and her daughter sadie, 12 years old, and theyre from thomasville, georgia. Hi, steve. Hi. I would like to know, how do you raise appreciative children . Howo i raise appreciative children . Yes. Dont give them nothing. See, if you dont give them nothing, when you do give them something, they have a lot more appreciation for it. Its just tough parenting. You know, youve got theres a balancing act you have to do. You try to create a life so your kids have a better life than what you had. At the same time, you cant give them everything. Sometimes, withholding the blessing makes the blessing more appreciative. Sadie, are you cool with that answer . No, she wasnt. She didnt like that at all. Mom why are you asking him . Hes not my dad. Thank you so much. Next up, we have sophie from montreal, canada. Good morning. Good morning. Hi, steve. Oh. Change the locks, yeah. I dont let mine in. Yeah, they call.

One of the things when my nieces come to see me, when the elevator doors open in the building, if nobodys in there, we have what we call an fdp, Funky Dance Party in the elevator. When the elevator doors open and theres somebody in there, theyre all like, oh. The person in there is like, hello, thanks a lot. Isnt that the most fun . Its the best. Those types of memories.

Look how i got the bird. I seriously stopped and said, this does not look real to me. You are a photographer. It was nice. I was flying back on sunday and i was watching i was on jetblue, all the tvs were on, thats when the news broke about nancy reagan passing away at 94. For a lot of people for a younger generation, shes probably the first first lady they really remember. She was first lady from 1981 to 1989. Every tribute you saw. On the plane, you just kept watching them go over and over and over. She was obviously influential with policy and with her husband in so many ways. But the love story between those two, i was getting tearyeyed watching it. Notes. They had notes that wound up in books and theyre love letters. Like he was writing to her and he writes, when you leave the room, i miss you. You know how when you lose someone you care about, everyone always says the same thing, it get easier. I was watching her. She was getting interviewed by i think larry king or somebody and she said, you know how they always say it gets easier . She said, it doesnt get easier. She said, i loved him that much. Its harder every day. I was imagining her while she was going through alzheimers with her. But anyway, they had a beautiful, beautiful love story. I think in so many ways people can learn from their marriage. Marriage. Other. The respect he had for her. Yes. I got to meet them a little bit when i was little. I remember ill never forget it, thats a picture of us in the oval office. Look at you two. And, you know, he was he grandfather and i remember, i remember meeting her and i said i have a distinct memory of you meeting her at the easter egg roll when i was little and barbara and i were not that well behaved. She seemed like a first lady. She did. Dont you think . Regal. She had an air about her that was first ladylike and in all the best ways, so i think shell be missed. She will. You can just see the number of tributes and the number of people she impacted and how people have her held up as not just a wonderful first lady but as, you know, a loving wife, a fashion icon. She did so much for the white house and restoration. She left a Lasting Impact but i think the legacy, like you said, that shell leave is that the love affair. It was really ive never seen a couple who had been married as long as they had who looked at each other the way they did and you hardly saw a picture of them where they werent touching or looking at each other. No matter what, almost every single picture. We can all work on. Absolutely. To have that type of marriage. Absolutely. So, its youre so sad. Im a little bit bummed about this next story. Yes. Peyton manning is going to announce his retirement today weve heard from many sources. He had an 18year career. Hes a new orleans boy. Yes, love him. So drew brees or Peyton Manning, if you had to pick . That is a terrible oh, on an island . Stranded on an island. You know what . I dont know. A tossup. Todays peytons day. But both of these guys are upstanding incredible guys who you would want your daughter to marry or your son to emulate. Theyre that kind of guy. Peyton i didnt realize he liked our show. What . First of all, im like, whats a huge cool awesome jock doing watching this show. No, he doesnt. It came out yeah, they were talking about while he was was kind of trapped i guess he wasnt really. I guess he didnt have a choice. He said he watched us for 35 days in a row. Straight . Just listen because this is from his lips. Go. I did all 35 days. Watched hoda and kathie lee. I did all 35 days. For an hour treatment. Watched hoda and kathie lee. One more time. Why did we cut it . Just continue. You want it over and over again . Watched hoda and kathie lee. Thats my ring tone. Can we make that your ring tone and or your alarm clock . Theres so many great pictures of him. Thats supposed to be announced later today. If you want to see a beautiful picture about the duke and duchess of cambridge, they had their first ski vacation. They bought george and the baby oh, my gosh. Is this for real . What shocks me. I mean, the kids are obviously adorable. What shocks me even more. Look at her. What mom has hair that looks that fab . Look at that. When theyre holding two little babes. She looks so good. Why is everyone happy . Like usually one is not so happy. A ski trip. One baby usually. Of course hes laughing. Where are they . Theyre in the french alps. Secret location. They wouldnt give it away obviously. This is the first time william and kate have hit the slopes since having kids. Which by the way henry and i have yet to go skiing. Look at them in love too. I mean, you cant have everything. You know whats funny . We were at the pool and we saw this really handsome guy and we were ogling. Thank you for confirming. I had a lot people say you said it incorrectly. Okay, we were ogling this guy and this somehow gross it was. We were watching him and he was with his wife and she was gorgeous and they had a baby. Hes making her laugh and the babys bouncing and my friend looked at me and goes, hes got to be stupid. Because no one gets everything. Im sure his wife appreciated that ogling. We couldnt help it. She understood. Oogling. She understood. Imagine this, imagine your child goes to school with beyonces daughter blue ivy and imagine youre at a fundraiser. Right. At school which is what people do. And all a sudden its time for beyonce to get up on stage and start singing a Whitney Houston song and thats what happened at the school. So take a look. Dont fade away cant mila go to blue ivys school . Seriously. Doest this make moms across the country feel inadequate or just me. Because im right in the middle of trying to find auction items for milas schools auction. Diner down street, you think theyd do a free breakfast . Just take a today show mug, those are hot. People like those. Maybe they could come behind the scenes. Yeah, do a behind the scenes. They could have lunch with hoda kotb. And you youre like, and no. Yes, indeed, id love to. Talk about our lottery brothers. Two brothers stopped on their way home from the beach to buy power ball tickets. They both won. Thats the good news. But the bad news is one won 291. No, 291 million. Million dollars so he chose the lump sum. And his brother won 7. Million. Can you imagine . I bet it always happens in that family. That brother, bob always i would say bob is me and james is barbara. Well, james is a judge from and he was on vacation in the keys when he stopped to get a bag of ice and lottery tickets. James says hes going back to florida to celebrate. Heres the question, is james going to share with poor bob . James has got to share with bob. If james doesnt share with bob, we feel sorry for bob. We do. We already feel sorry for bob. We do. All right, its National Cereal day. So if you havent had your bowl of cheerios, were going to play, you know with our food, okay. What is this . Cheerios colada . Of course some sort of alcoholic beverage. Well, thats the show. Things dont look like cheerios, these are fruit loops. No theyre multicolored cheerios. They have fruity cheerios . Oh, my god, try them. They do taste like fruit loops. No, these are fruit loops. That is not true. Oh, theyre fruity cheerios. She looks like shes going to hit me. Its got white rum, tumoric. Pineapple juice. Its good for colds. I should drink this whole thing. Anyway, jenna and i are going to share our favorite things. By the way, i want for a second.

We get to surprise our fan of the week. Drum roll please. Today, its landed in lantana, texas. Who watches us on kxas tv. She watches us on skype. Are you i school . Yes, i am. I stepped out of the classroom so fingers crossed theyre all on task. Oh, my gosh. Were going to tell everybody why you were chosen. Youre a recent college grad who works as a substitute teacher. She watches the show every day and she said it inspired her to be brave and take the leap of faith and move all the way from illinois to texas. Good move, girl. One of her favorite memories is when she came to the plaza and played who knew with us. Ashley loves ambush makeovers and she loves how much we drink. Its so sad. She likes to join in with her full glass of milk. Okay, ashley, its time to put your fan dom to the test with a trivia question. 15 questionseconds, one guess. Are you ready . I think so, fingers crossed. This ones about jenna. She often talks about her twin sister who is named after their is it laura, ethel or barbara . Barbara. Yes. What does she win . You won a fabulous resort vacation. You and a guest are going to head to sunny florida. At the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and casino in tampa. As well as massages at the rock spa, round trip airfare is included. Ashley, whos going to go with you, do you know . Oh, my goodness, yes, my mom, shes my best friend. Im so excited. She deserves it too. Oh, ashley, we love you. Ashley, we love you and you kind of have a texas accent which i love, girl. Thanks, girl. Ashley, have a good one, honey. Coming up, were going to have your babys chubby little hand latches onto your finger so hard, its like shes saying i love you. Thats why aveenos oat formula is designed for your babys sensitive skin. Aveeno. Naturally beautiful babies. Mmmm it is a fun kayday monday. There isnt a woman out there who isnt selfconscious about some part of her body. You think your bootys a little too bootylicious. Were about to show you how to turn your socalled flaws into fashion assets. Here with the styles to help you love your body is instyle beauty and fashion editor and large. Kalana. Im good, how are you guys . Were not quite sure how to dress our bodies and if we start off with someone who lets say has ample bosoms. Sometimes its hard. It is so hard. I find it to be superchallenging because i actually suffer from this. But its not really a suffer because im embracing my assets. Its all about, you know, finding the right cuts and think when you have a bigger bust, whats complicated is finding the right tops that dont make you look top heavy. What are the rules . When you go for a higher neckline it kind of cuts you off and makes you look more top heavy so go with a bow neck, a scoop neck, a vneck. Youre talking about girls with what size cups . D cup. Even c cup. C, d, e, f, g. H, i, j. All the way. She has a scoop neck top and ateay shows off her skin but its not too low cut where shes revealing too much. And then emphasize your waist. A pair of shorts are cinched and it brings her in and gives her that hour glass shape. Another key is to do a blazer. Its a great way to just polish off the look and it kind of camouflages things. Thanks, erica. How about the opposite if youre flat chested, you have a tiny bosom. Lets bring out anna. The word bosom by the way. Bosom is from the 1960s. Thats a cute top. I think a halter top is really the way. It shows a sexy amount of skin without requiring a lot of cleavage. But i do think when your boobs are tiny you can get away with a lot more. You can really do anything. You dont necessarily have to wear a bra, right . When you do a bra, dont try to go for one thats padded, go for one that has more shape. Whats great is she can have a backless dress. No bra. You dont need it. All right. Thanks, so much. So now we got the booty. The big booty. Which is by the way, a big booty is a great asset. Some people try to camouflage this but there are women out there trying to enhance so you have to show it off. When it comes natural, embrace that. Lets see the natural. So shes wearing a pair of skinny jeans. A lot of women are intimidated by jeans because they gap in the back when you have a bigger do a pair of skinny jeans that elongate your legs but also have stretch. If you have that gap, make sure youre belting jean so you bring it in. She has a top thats a little bit more fabric so you want to tuck it in and show that waist. She has a tiny waist. So its super flattering. Curvy. We have christina. Shes working it. I want to be able to walk like that. Christina, you look good. Tell us what youve done there. I think for a woman who has a curvy shape, you want to have adjustability. You want to have a dress that is either a wrap dress that you can cinch at the waist or do a trench coat on top that has a belt. You dont want anything to be too, too tight. Again, you want to use the trench coat in the same way you would use a blazer, polish the look and bring everything together. Its bright, she has confidence. Its not too tight and its not too loose. We talk about cankles, what should we do with those . I dont like the word cankle. You just want to avoid the thick strap. Its going to draw attention to the cankle. She does not have a cankle. No. No, were looking up there. All right, i got it. You dont want to draw attention to it and wear a heel with a thick strap. You want to do something monochromatic so do a nude shoe. Thank you so, so much. We really appreciate it. You look fab. Did you take a break from your career maybe to raise some kids . Get back into the workforce. rebivetrgled depssn.

Shes here to share their stories and offer advise for all of us. Youre about to meet two women who left big jobs for their families and they dont regret the decision for a minute. Both are finding that reentering the workforce is tougher than they thought. I have three children and im a single mom. I have a son in college and two girls in high school, freshman, twins. Meet jane. Jane spent decades building a successful career for herself in the fashion world but ten years made a joint decision for her to take a break from her job to raise the kids. I said, im going to take a little bit of time off. I just want to spend some time with my kids and play around and a recruiter said to me at the time, jane, be careful, you know, you always want to keep your toes in the water. Laura had a slightly different path. After more than a decade in the world of finance, laura found out she was pregnant with twins, an exciting surprise. I stayed home for three years. And then i was offered a position with Johnson Johnson. I was with Johnson Johnson for eight years. And as my children grew, i realized i would spending less and less time with them. I was missing out on their lives. Now that all of their kids are independent, jane and laura are hoping to relaunch their careers. Jane is working hard to establish a social Media Presence and create her own personal brand. Im using linked in to really connect with people that i maybe two years, three years, and just be able to figure out like where they are and is there a possible opportunity for me. While laura takes on shortterm positions in the financial world to keep her skills sharp. I recently started taking consulting roles. Ive done three different jobs over the last couple of years. But one question remains, would they do it all differently. I dont regret leaving my job. What i absoluty wish i had done was taken the advice of that recruiter, make that transition out and back in a little bit more seamless. Things change so rapidly today that three years off may as well be 30. But in the end, it was worth it. Cy can picture so many women at home right now whatting that piece saying me too. A lot of women do want to get back into the workforce. Youre going to help us with mein o practical steps, right. You say first up is reset your expectations. Look, this is a little tough love. Found if youve been out of work for a year, only 9 of people get a job within the first 6 to 12 months of looking. Imagine what it is for working moms. Its lower than that. So you have to understand, you are not going to reenter at the level you exited at. Youre going to have to step backwards to stepforwards. This is not great news. Both laura and jane are at this place. They understand. Theyve had the interviews. The hiring managers know the world has changed. Back. Youll accelerate once you get your foot in the door but step back. You say the second step is to fill all your deficits. What does that mean . You have skill and knowledge deficits. Unless youre the rare person whos kept abreast of all the companies change. And fast, right . Because of technology. I have the three cs. Conferences. Classes. Who are in the field now. Come up to speed on the trends. There are conferences. You need to bring yourself up to speed so you can go in and say im engaged, i know whats going on in this world. You can do all this stuff before you go knock on the door again. You can say, i understand how this works. I happen to have taken a class on this. I got certified. That might help you get the job, right . Youre looking for something that shows you are not looking to come up to speed on their car. Brand of you. The first thing an employer will do is google you. If you dont have a digital footprint that shows youre engaged, if youre not on twitter in a professional and engaged and active way, if youre not on linked in commenting on peoples articles. If you have skills, they have skilled where they started consulting. Really they became the ceo of their own firm. They got some clients. They started doing work which fills that resume. You need to you look like you know, from your house into the work world, that youve done some stuff, youre digitally online, youre socially networked online. That was something you had jane do, right . Absolutely. Everyone needs to do that. Finally, tackle the elephant in the room. What is this elephant . Listen, the hiring managers looking at you and theyre thinking, is she ready . Does she know what shes about to get into . Shes going to be juggling a very difficult transition. Is she going to regret it the minute we ask her to work late or take a trip . They cant really raise that issue but you can and you can say, look, i want you to know my family has carefully considered this transition. Were ready. Im ready. I have the mechanisms in place to make it possible. Youre not going to have to pay the price for me learning how to thats smart. Really smart. Before it squashes you. Suzy, awesome advice.
