Transcripts For KGO Good Morning America 20150304

On hollywoods biggest night and epic host to get the alist treatment. Was he really the best actor of the night . Good morning, america. Everyone wants to know what it feels like to win an oscar. This guy decided to find out. That was fun. It was fun. They didnt know. No one embarrassed him so they let him in. Well share that with you later and but well begin, though, with that suspected serial shooter in custody this morning. A man who is believed to have opened fire on an nsa building, highways and several other locations in washington over the past two weeks. Abcs david kerley is in washington and has the latest. Good morning, david. Good morning, robin. This all came to a head in the past couple of hours. That shooting at the countrys Top Spy Agency actually happened yesterday afternoon. It is a building on the nsa campus which sits along a highway that was apparently hit by two bullets. It was just hours earlier on that highway that shots were fired at a truck traveling down the road. Two men inside that treetrimming truck, two bullets smashed through the windshield, a fragment hit one man in the shoulder. Glass hit the other man. Their injuries not lifethreatening. The fbi arrested a male suspect late last night and believe he is responsible for both of those shootings and that may not be all. The fbi says it believes the man is responsible for a series of shootings between washington and baltimore over the past two weeks. Now, the bureau took on this case when the shots were fired at the National Security agency, its a federal installation where officers collect, decode and translate spy data from around the world. There is no word of what the alleged shooters motive may have been. We dont even know if he was actually targeting the nsa. George. Many more questions to answer. Thanks very much. We turn to the Boston Marathon bombing trial. Opening arguments set for this morning and now there are new questions about what role the suspects widowed sisterinlaw played in the bombing. Abcs brian ross is in boston with the latest. Good morning, brian. Reporter well, good morning, george. Under tight security, a panel of ten women and eight men will hear the case beginning here this morning and while the focus has been on dzhokhar tsarnaev, Law Enforcement authorities tell abc news the fbi has been quietly investigating his his sisterinlaw, the wid doef his dead brother who they say could Face Criminal Charges herself. The daughter of a welltodo family Katherine Russell changed her name to karima to marry tamerlan, the mastermind of the boston bombing, but after the bombs went off, and her husband was killed in a shootout, russell told the fbi she knew nothing about the terror attack before it happened. As a mother, a sister, a daughter, a wife, katie deeply mourns the pain and loss to innocent victims. Reporter but now Law Enforcement Authorities Say they believe russell accompanied her husband to this macys store in boston two months before the attacks and bought five pressure cookers, two of which they say were used to make the deadly bomb. Since the bombing russell moved to new jersey. Shes the one in black to live near the sisters of her dead husband where our boston station wcvb caught up with them. Authorities say the fbi put russell under surveillance during last years marathon and they continue to track her to this day and despite what she might know she is not expected to be a witness at her brotherinlaws trial. One would think that she would have an incredible amount of knowledge. The fact shes not being called as a witness suggests at least on one very important level that she continues to be an object, a person of interest. Reporter neither russells lawyers nor the fbi nor federal prosecutors had any official comment on her status and authorities tell abc news no decision will be made on whether to prosecute her until after the trial is over and that might not be, robin, until midsummer. Could take some time. All right, brian, thank you. Now to this brutal winter weather. More snow falling in boston last night as that city closes in on a record and another storm is on the way. Abcs rob marciano has the latest. Reporter this morning, millions of americans waking up to another day of deceptively dangerous icy conditions. I just completely turned all the way around and slid off the road. Reporter in chicago, watch as this suv slips and slides across the highway nearly slamming into another driver. People were sliding all over the place. Reporter across the midwest, roads littered with wreckage. In minnesota traffic backed up for hours on interstate 94. More than two dozen crashes throughout the day. I got off the highway to calm my nerves. Reporter near st. Paul, an officer investigating a wreck became part of it as his cruiser was slammed into. This tractortrailer flipping over and ending up on its side. In boston more wicked weather overnight. Over 310,000 miles of boston streets plowed. Thats farther than here to the moon with just 2 inches to go until that alltime record topples, some residents finally embracing the idea that today could be a historic snow day. Im ready to set a record. Reporter other bostonians less worried about snow totals and just want the winter to end. I dont care what the record is for the snowiest winter of all time in boston. This is ridiculous. Were going out of our minds. Reporter ridiculous is certainly a word you could use to describe this winter. Youre looking at one of the areas where theyre stockpiling the snow. Several stories high and come to you live from Boston Harbor parts of which were frozen over the past couple of weeks. Today theyll hit 40 for the First Time Since january 19th. That will feel good but it will be shortlived, though. More snow and cold coming tonight. You know it all too well. Thank you very much. More so and ice. Warnings from texas all the way to new jersey and ginger will track it all. Philadelphia back to dallas and a winter storm warning. Anywhere you see in pink, this is a big deal especially this late in the season. Im most concerned about memphis to louisville as we go into the overnight hours and im going to show you why. It develops and snowing in parts of the plains but the snow and ice really at drive time tonight from memphis up to louisville is heavy. Some of southern ohio up into West Virginia and then youre driving tomorrow morning from washington, d. C. , where the sleet will start to mix in some freezing rain back to memphis and dallas and then snow, heavy snow on top of that. So this is a big deal not just for the midatlantic but anyone there going to get the ice and then, again, some of those snow totals could top a half foot. I will detail all of this coming up in your nations weather. Half foot in march. Thanks very much. Were going to turn now to new questions this morning about Hillary Clinton and her use of private email as secretary of state. At a public event last night clinton did not address the controversy but her team insists she did nothing wrong amid pressure for more disclosure. Jon karl has all the latest. Reporter clintons spokesperson says there is nothing nefarious here, that she saved all of her emails and turned them all over to the state department. That is not going to end this controversy. House republicans say they are now investigating saying, mrs. Clinton used multiple private emails as secretary of state and they are vowing to subpoena if necessary and the white houses defense of her email practices has been lukewarm at best. Yesterday, White House Press secretary josh earnest refused to say directly whether or not she violated the law. In fact, george, he couldnt name a single other official in the Obama Administration who behaved, who acted in this way as mrs. Clinton. Thats right. Previous secretaries of state colin powell also said he used personal email but had a government account, as well. Reporter thats right. Only two previous secretaries of state used email at all. Condoleezza rice and colin powell. They both had official accounts, colin powell did have a personal email that he used but his spokesperson points out it was a rather primitive operation back then at the state department. Many employees didnt even have computers on their desks when he first came to the state department. Okay, jon karl, thanks very much. All right, there, george. Now to david petraeus, the former cia director and one of the most revered generals of a generation stunned the country when he admitted to having an affair and now he has agreed to plead guilty to mishandling top secret material. Sharing them with his mistress. Abcs Martha Raddatz has the latest on all this and joins us. Good morning, martha. Reporter good morning, robin. This is a man who was once thought of as a possible president ial candidate, making his fall and the charge he is pleading guilty to all the more stunning. This morning, this retired fourstar general who led the war effort in two of our nations pose important conflicts and as cia director held the nations most important secrets is preparing for sentencing after sharing highly classified information with his lover and lying to the fbi about it. I have traveled with petraeus from iraq to afghanistan where he was revered by his troops on and off the battlefield. I also watched him take careful notes in black notebooks like the one here in a briefing in afghanistan i attended with him. Prosecutors say eight of petraeus black books which contained classified information, identities of covert officers, war strategy, intelligence capabilities and even notes from discussions with the president of the United States were given to his lover Paula Broadwell who was writing petraeus biography. His romantic desires potentially put people at risk, operations at risk and maybe more importantly could tell the enemy how we do our business. Reporter but despite the seriousness of the charge against him, prosecutors are not recommending any prison time, only probation and a 40,000 fine. George. Okay, martha, thanks. Now to that scathing report from the Justice Department charging the ferguson, missouri, Police Department with civil rights violations. It finds a clear pattern of bias against africanamericans, sets the stage for major changes and our chief justice correspondent Pierre Thomas has the details. Hands up, dont shoot. Reporter we all recall the protests and emotional accusations of rampant racism by the ferguson Police Department in the wake of the Fatal Shooting of a young black man by a white Police Officer. We have been harassed so much that were tire of the of it. And this is our breaking point. Reporter today the Justice Department is expected to release a damning assessment of Ferguson Police alleged a pattern and practice of discrimination. According to details obtained by abc news, the Justice Departments investigation offers these searing numbers to make the case. Blacks make up 67 of fergusons population but were accused in 95 of jaywalking cases, 93 of all arrests and 85 of all traffic stops, and the civil rights probe found numerous examples of police and Municipal Court officials demonstrating bias, if not outright racism. Derogatory remarks even made about the president. In november 2008 one city official wrote, obama would not be in office very long because what black man holds a steady job for four years . The findings come as the attorney general is expected to announce there is not enough evidence to charge officer Darren Wilson with violating Michael Browns civil rights. Officer wilson told our George Stephanopoulos this was not about race. If Michael Brown were white, this would have gone down in exactly the same way . Yes. Ferguson officials will get a chance to say whether they agree with the Justice Departments findings and make changes in enforcement. If they do not, Justice Department officials will sue them. George . Okay, pierre, thanks very much. Want to go to amy with todays other top stories. Very big day at the Supreme Court. Thats right, george. It is, indeed. Good morning, today the Supreme Court justices will hear arguments in a case that has the potential to unravel president obamas health care law. At issue is whether its legal to give out subsidies in states where the federal government runs the insurance exchanges. Also this morning, a new twist in the battle over gay marriage. In alabama the state Supreme Court has ordered probate judges to stop issuing samesex emergency licenses defying a recent order by a federal judge. The u. S. Supreme court is expected to rule on the issue in june. And troubling report about the nations heroin epidemic. The cdc says the number of fatal heroin overdoses has tripled since 2010. Prescription drugs are often the gateway to addiction. And authorities now say the homeless man shot and killed by Los Angeles Police was wanted for probation violation stemming from a bank robbery conviction. The lapd says the man tried to grab an officers gun. The victim has been identified as charlie robinet, but he is accused of stealing that identity from a french citizen. In houston, a mother and her young son survived this violent crash, their truck slamming into a van before flipping over. Part of a tree that was also sent flying. Rescuers had to use the jaws of life to open the roof and pull them out. Somehow despite that video they suffered only minor injuries. And overseas, a dramatic scene as passengers rushed to evacuate this turkish airliner that skidded off a runway in nepal in heavy fog. The front landing gear had collapsed. Passengers jumped down the emergency slides, all 238 people are okay. And a shocking discovery at new yorks jfk airport. Agents arrested a man after finding 770,000 in cash hidden inside these boxes of soap, bandaids and alkaseltzer in his luggage. The suspect says he was just trying to buy a building in yemen. Finally, almost everyone is sick of winter. Im going to say everyone, not almost everyone. Everyone is sick of winter. The snow, the sleet and frigid cold so police in a small town in New Hampshire came up with a cure for the winter blues. Free pizza and french fries. Theyre handing out gift cards to reward Good Behavior in town and in this case it means driving carefully in the snow, police were going to pay for the pizza and fries themselves but when local businesses heard about the plan they decided to donate to encourage safe driving. And i got to say i think they hit this right on the money. Because two things that cheer me up in almost any circumstance pizza and french fries. Good old comfort food. When the snow melts everyone will have to go running. Work that off. Yep. Thats true. Throw in a cupcake and all is well. All right, thanks, amy. We want to move on to the investigation into a brazen gold heist in north carolina. Armed robbers reportedly held up a truck and got away with more than 4 million in gold. Leaving two security guards tied up in the woods. And were hearing the 911 calls from the drivers who found them on the side of the road this morning. Abcs linzie janis has the story. 114 northbound.

Police say the suspects tied the victims hands behind their backs and led them into the woods before fleeing the scene with nearly 5 million in gold.

For good morning america, linzie janis, abc news, new york. Wow. Brazen. Brazen. To say the least. Thanks for bringing that to us. Now to snow in minnesota yesterday. One of the many places and now this arctic air coming in from that. Right behind it. And thats the other thing. Well be talking about record lows potentially in the mid and deep south after this moves through so not everybody hates winter. Not everyone because some places where theyre used to a lot of snow in march. That is a ground blizzard in minnesota. Western see, thats the attitude you have to have. Can be dangerous, of course, because visibilities are quickly reduced. And thats the whole thing.

Again, right now, a suspected serial shooter who allegedly opened fire on the nsa building and highways in the Washington Area is in custody this morning. Also right now, the jury in the jodi arias Death Penalty retrial says theyre at an impasse. And a new warning about those popular mens testosterone drugs. The fda saying they may not be as safe as you think they are. Pay attention to that this morning as we say good morning, america. A lot to get to, including a guy we had some fun with at the top trying to convince people he won an oscar and he made it pretty far. Had a lot of fun getting lots of selfies. Well tell you more about it. Is that why lara had turns out one might be better than an invite to anywhere. Invited anywhere. This may be all you need. Well explain what that means coming up. We will. But we begin this halfhour, the latest on the jodi arias Death Penalty retrial. The jurors will be back to work this morning deliberating for a fifth day after telling the judge they were at an impasse on tuesday. Abcs ryan owens has the story. Were you crying when you were stabbing him . I dont remember. Reporter she may be this countrys most infamous femme fatale and convicted murderer jodi arias may be about to escape arizonas death row again. This morning, the second jury trying to decide whether arias lives or dies for the brutal stabbing and shooting of her exboyfriend Travis Alexander will begin their fifth day of deliberations. Tuesday, the judge told them to keep working after they claimed they were deadlocked. Its exactly what happened to the first jury almost two years ago. I have received your note indicating that you are unable to come to a unanimous decision. Reporter this new jury of eight women and four men has already deliberated more than 20 hours. Thats six hours longer than the first jury. If they too cant come up with a decision, thats it. Jodi arias lives. The judge will pick either life in prison or she could get out in 25 years, something we discussed in a jailhouse interview just after her murder conviction. So you think people should feel safe if jodi arias is out of these four walls at some point . Well, i think so, yes. If youre not abusing me and attacking me and threatening to kill my life theres no reason to fear. Reporter so, you are sticking with that story. Its not a story. Its the reality. Reporter if it feels like this case has gone on forever, it has. Its been almost seven years since arias slaughtered Travis Alexander in his mesa, arizona, home. Her fourmonth murder trial including 18 days of her on the stand ended in may of 2013 with that hung jury. It hasnt been cheap either. Arizona taxpayers have shelled out 3. 1 million for her defense. Prosecutors have refused to say how much theyve spent trying to kill jodi arias not once, but twice. So deliberations will resume this morning with hour number 21 and counting. A little hard to believe somebody that stuck to their guns in the jury room at this point will suddenly change their mind but we will certainly watch what at least for now looks like a very bad case of deja vu, robin. We know that youll be there. All right, thanks very much. Abcs dan abrams is here with more on this. So lets pick up on this and why do you think the jury is having such a difficult time coming to a decision . Because this is kind of a squishy legal standard. The question here is its not did she do it but should we execute her for what she did and the legal question becomes do the aggravating circumstances outweigh the mitigating ones . And theres a long list of aggravating ones and mitigating ones and in this case actually the defense has stronger arguments on the mitigating circumstances, meaning theres some factors that the jury wasnt asked to consider last time like remorse, posttraumatic stress disorder, borderline personality disorder. These are all things that helped jodi arias avoid the Death Penalty. They dont because the process that its in, this jury does not hear all the evidence about guilt or innocence. Thats right. This is just the penalty phase and that you could argue might lead the jurors to take longer, as well, because in the first case they knew everything. Theyd heard everything about the case. Theyd heard all of the facts, all of the debates. Here, theyre just getting a limited amount of information that says youre assuming that she did it. You know she did it and you get a little sort of encapsulized version and now decide. There could be questions about exactly what happened and how it happened that didnt exist in the first case. Like ryan owens, you have been on this from the beginning and when it got to this point you were throwing your hands up. So, what happens if its another hung jury . I always said i dont think they should just retry the penalty phase. Under the law of arizona there will not be another trial. They cant. If theres a hung jury she gets life in prison. Thats it, case over. Well see. All right, thanks so much, dan. Okay, guys, were going to switch gears and we know winning an oscar can open up all kinds of doors for an actor and one wannabe found out how powerful that could be. It shows you what you can get away with by showing off that statue. Its gone viral and abcs brandi hitt has the story. Great job. I watched your movie. Reporter winning an oscar feels fantastic. Reporter it certainly did for Mark David Christenson sunday night, but heres the catch. Christenson didnt win anything. The actor fooling hundreds of people across l. A. Making them believe this fake oscar was real. Its an oscar. Reporter are you surprised people thought that was real . Yes, look at this. He has hair. Oscar does not have hair. Its like a smooth baldness. Hes holding a wreath. Reporter christenson was given the alist treatment from free food and drinks to access to oscar afterparties. I lost my ticket. Reporter even picking up a car from a valet without a ticket. He has an oscar. Reporter that wasnt his. Why would you let someone do this . Reporter christenson returned the car. Im letting you go through. Youre an award winner. Reporter and perhaps, most shocking, making it past two levels of Academy Award security. You guys ever arrest an oscar winner before . We could right now. Reporter before being stopped at the dolby theatre entrance. All joking aside you got through heavy security. Yes, very heavy security just by flashing a statue and a tux. Reporter even when out with us passersby still tricked by that fake statue. Did you think it was real . Maybe. Reporter christensons video going viral this morning with more than a million views in just four days. For good morning america, brandi hitt, abc news, los angeles. I dont mind if he goes to some parties but he got somebodys car that isnt his . Come on. Ginger is irate. Thats true. Its really amazing, though, that he was able to get past security a little eye opening. Its a golden ticket. I didnt know why he didnt go for a nicer car, i dont know. Why he picked that one. Yeah. Ginger, what is that behind you . Well, lets look. Oh, its beautiful, george. It is beautiful.

Prescriptions have nearly doubled in the last five years, but now the fda says the popular drugs are being overused and may not be safe. Abcs Neal Karlinsky has the details.

If i would have known of the side effects of this drug that included strokes or heart attacks or any other type of complications such as that, i would have never taken it. Reporter the fda also says drugmakers need to make clear that low t treatment should only be for men with certain medical conditions and it hasnt been approved to combat normal aging. The vast majority of men taking testosterone dont have a condition for which its indicated and the fda is very worried about that. Reporter two low t manufacturers spoke with abc news, one telling us, weve heard from the fda and well continue to work closely with the agency in the best interests of men who use testosterone therapy and the other saying, it is committed to our patients and we continue to work with the fda.

And then finally, guys, in pop news this morning, when it comes to the bedroom, it turns out side does matter, i said side with a d. A special, yes, pop news investigation. We have determined that if you feel like you woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, you were probably sleeping on the left. Its a survey actually carried out by a Mattress Company and they found that more than half of americans prefer the right side of the bed, so this is if youre looking at the bed and youre looking at the headboard, which shied do you sleep on . On the right. On the left. Especially men like the right like george and the study says that men that sleep on the right side of the bed are generally more relaxed than men who sleep on the left side of the bed. Also interesting, it turns out that 75 of americans choose which side they sleep on based on which side is closer to not the bathroom but electrical outlets because as we all know you must be plugged in at all times. Got to have that device. Yeah, well, there was one other study. Can i just say, that moreover more women than men, 72 need their space and prefer they face away from their partners.

You may remember that maryland couple investigated for letting their Young Children walk home from the park by themselves. Well, officials now say they neglected their children. Dan and nancy are here to argue it out after this from abcs bazi kanani. Reporter this morning, the parents who made headlines for letting their 10 and 6yearolds walk a mile home from a park without adult supervision are found responsible by Child Protective Services for unsubstantiated child neglect. Its shocking, its hurtful, its traumatic. It never would have occurred to me that i could get caught up in Something Like this. Reporter danielle and Alexander Meitiv say they knew their style of parenting, known as freerange parenting, giving children more space and more responsibility was Old Fashioned but they never thought it would come under investigation. Which is just the way most of the adults watching were raised. You know, a parent says, go play outside. Come back before dinner. Not any radical idea. Reporter Child Protective Services says marylands state law states that children under the age of 8 must be under the care of a person who is at least 13. The case now closed but the meitivs are fighting back hiring lawyers to file an appeal. Were on file for five years. That black mark is on our records here. Reporter the Maryland Department of Human Resources tells abc news it cannot comment on specific cases because of confidentiality requirements. We spoke with the meitivs childrens rafi and dvora in january when the investigation was under way. Do you think its okay for you and your sister to walk places by yourself . Yeah. Reporter the meitivs say while theyre worried about being investigated in the future, they will still let their children walk by themselves. I cant let it change my parenting because i know what im doing is right. Reporter for good morning america, bazi kanani, abc news, washington. Thanks to bazi for that. Dan abrams is back joined by nancy grace of hlns nancy grace. Welcome back to both of you. Ill begin with you, dan. Ill let you guys debate. I look at this finding, unsubstantiated child neglect, i dont know what it means. Its a little bit misleading but it means that they found evidence of it but they dont necessarily think they can prove it. But the reality is this is not nuts in my view. The idea that two children walking in a neighborhood, 10 and 6, that their parents are now being found responsible for child neglect. The question isnt should a 10yearold and a 6yearold be walking alone, thats not the question. The question is, should the authorities be stepping in and getting involved and bringing in the government to make these sorts of decisions for parents . I know how much a lot of parents want to be the Parent Police here. But thats not the question. It is crazy that the authorities are involved. What do you think, nancy . Well, actually, those are not exactly the facts. This was not just in your hometown neighborhood. This was a mile away, and i have actually traced the route and they go through some major, major thoroughfares with red lights, lots of traffic, lots of stores, lots of people. I would just direct everyone to a video that i refreshed myself with this morning. Its of carlie brucia. Shes about 10 years old, she had about eight blocks to walk home in her neighborhood from her little sleepover home and she was abducted and killed. Now, does that happen every time . No, but does it happen, yes. I dont think these parents are bad parents. I think theyre very loving, but this is not the same world we grew up in, dan, where we could ride our bikes all day and that was fine. Ill tell you its not like that anymore. In fact, this area has the highest crime rate in all of that county you cant draw legal lines by doing, retracing their steps and saying, how many crosswalks are there . Thats just you just said it was a neighborhood. Its not just a neighborhood like next door to theyre walking through a Business District for petes sake. Nancy, when i was 10 years old in manhattan, i rode the bus to school by myself. Now, maybe that wasnt the right decision. And look what happened . Exactly. Its true. [ laughter ] listen to me. Listen, this is not anything to get crazy about, but what im saying is, dfax wild protective services got a phone call and they investigated it. And when you dont know a horse, dan abrams, look at its track record. Cps never continues its investigations, the parents will never hear from them again. Dan, im afraid thats going to have to be the last word. I cant believe you served it up for her like that. Right, right. I try to help. Lets go back to robin. That was amazing. It was. Also burning up the heat index, the new fashion trend that is sweeping gyms across america. We just saw you working out there a little bit, amy. Lets call them colorful pattern tights. Abcs sara haines has the story. Reporter leopards, tigers, and snakes, oh, my. Fitness fanatics, beware, yoga pants now entering unchartered territory, an out of this world place where kale, yes, kale is the new black. Meet the loud print yoga pant. At akt in motion, trainer to the stars, anna kaiser, says she rarely sees black yoga pants in her classes. How many people in the room are wearing the crazy pants . I would say 80 . Reporter so, the black sheep in the room are the ones with the black leggings. With the black leggings. Reporter i see a lot of fun things. I think these are blueberries. These are blueberries. One leg is a different pattern than the other leg. Reporter and theyre flying off shelves. Here at bandier in new york city, theyve been selling crazy pants like hotcakes since last summer. People didnt want to wear the same thing every Single Person was wearing and they started to experiment with color and patterns. Reporter experts say these designs can actually be more flattering than simple black pants. Drawing attention to the pattern instead of the shape of the leg. And dont be afraid to strut down the street. You can wear them with boots and sweaters. Reporter back at class, im sporting my new dreamcatcher pants. Theres no denying these hot pants give me some extra punch. All right, so do your thing. Well, youve seen us in all the fitness wear but took these day to night and you can do other things with them. We added a jacket, booties and a little scarf and see these ladies. Not that you want to leave in your sweaty gym clothes but it means when you wear them, you can get other uses and hang out in them. What do you do in these . Go to dinner, ginger. Or the club. Yeah. But theyre having a lot of people commenting. Its one thing to wear them in a gym but should you really be wearing them other places . I dont know if id go out for a night on the town but i would go out with friends shopping to lunch, things like that. Mine look like i was told like minecraft. Yours are like a party. Definitely a party going on in there. All right, lara, take it away. Thats it. That is a party. And finally on the heat index, Cate Blanchett, she got her first oscar nod for playing Queen Elizabeth and her latest movie, cinderella, cate is playing the queen of mean as the wicked stepmother and abcs nick watt sat down with the twotime oscar winner. Ooh, it seems too much to expect you to prepare breakfast, serve it and still sit with us. Wouldnt you prefer to eat when all the work is done, ella, or should i say cinderella . Reporter Cate Blanchett is a deliciously, deliciously wicked stepmother. You auditioned to play cinderella, of course . Of course, of course, and im a little bit cross. You know, they were doing cgi and could do a little bit no, i had friends say to me when i told them what i was doing, they were looking at me with sort of slightly concerned how do they ask me the question, arent you slightly too old . Reporter cinderella is 25yearold lily james of Downton Abbey fame and her prince, Richard Madden from game of thrones. You cannot cgi chemistry and they had the most extraordinary chemistry and watching them dance did they have an affair i cant reveal that. You know, but theres oh, youre that kind of journalist. No, but it was extraordinary. I thought breakfast was ready. It is, madam. Im only mending the fire. The breakfast scene where you were being horrible to her. My character is being horrible, yes. In the future could we not be called until the work is done . As you wish. When i was approached to be in this, it wasnt a fairy tale that i actually gravitated towards. Why not . Because i found the central female character really passive. Reporter in this retelling of an ancient tale, cinderella is loving and kind but also smart and in control of her own destiny. Cate blanchett could have played her. She could play anyone but what on earth have you been doing . Dreaming. Thats all. Well, then wake up. Its wonderful to be offered the villain, you know. Is it . Yes. You like being the villain . Its great, its fantastic. Why . Because im so lovely in real life. No, we get socialized out of all these mean, cruel things so you kind of have this vicarious experience through the villain. Reporter and villains get some of the best costumes. And trying to get in and out of the portaloos was slightly challenging. May i introduce my daughters anastasia and drizella . Reporter for good morning america, nick watt, abc news, los angeles.

Her designs have graced some of the most famous women of the world and now rachel roy is turning her professional success into a personal mission empowering everyday women. You rule your own life. You make your own choices and you stand by that. Selfrule is the idea that we can take charge of our life that we are actually responsible for our life but taking that step to say every single day the choys that i make are mine and im going to take that power back. Thats what im really trying to give to young people and to women in particular. Reporter she asked 30 women from Ballerina Misty Copeland to u. S. Olympian lindsey vonn to write down what selfrule means to them and with each message she hopes to inspire women everywhere. I think that the idea that youre speaking to your younger self. Woo he all have that younger self we wished we could have helped. You are the daughter of an immigrant from india, from a very low caste system in india. How has that pushed you and your work ethic . You know i remember hearing growing up you live in america. You have an opportunity to be an entrepreneur. You have an opportunity to start a business and when i started my business it was with no Business Plan or any other motive other than really choosing what i loved and trying to make a career out of it reporter you have quite the celebrity fan base from Gwyneth Paltrow to kate hudson to first Lady Michelle obama. What is it like to see your dresses on all of those gorgeous ladys . To know that someone trusts you and the way that you will make them look and therefore hopefully feel is it just puts you over the moon and perhaps in the right direction of what im trying to do and how im trying to make women feel. I know your daughters are huge inspiration to you. What kind of world do you want to see them growing up in . I would love for my daughters to live in a world where they are not judged by how they look but rather by how they treat people. Welcome and happy International Womens day.

Of course, she won an emmy on desperate housewives and he for ordinary people. Their son has been murdered during a Home Invasion on their show. You stole so you could gamble some more. You were off in vegas. It was an illness, an addiction and i got myself help and now i am recovered. Raising those boys by myself in public housing. A white and her two white kids. Do you know what those people did to us day after day. Im here trying to do what i can for matt and your feelings are over hurt over what i say to reporters. Stop saying my name. Wow. I think we ought to take a break. Felicity huffman, tim hutton you guys got a lot to go through. Sorry i yelled at you, darling. Thank you. You know we hear that those people those people those people a lot of people will say, boy, a lot of prejudice there. Well, yes, i mean i think if you asked barbara if she was a racist shed say no. She would say im a realist, im a pragmatist but i was talking to tim about it earlier and i think because its not so obvious, i think that is sort of the new face of racism and racial prejudice. Its the most charged subject in america. The creator john ridley wanted to have a whole new look at race in america and how crime touches all of us. I think he wanted to show the effect that it has on families inside their homes, not just you know what we read about in the headlines and he wanted to do a show that really examined this one central crime and how it affects all the people on both sides of the crime, the victims, as well as the suspects families and how, you know we dont treat each other we base a lot of our encounters on assumptions and our perceptions are immediate and quick and we jump to conclusions. I think the show deals with that. We could see in that scene how raw this is. I read somewhere that when you were first going through the descriptions you couldnt believe this would actually get made. Oh no remember we had bets. We were doing the pilot and i said i love working with you, ill never see you again. Its true. So i was forsure it wasnt going to get picked up. Network television has never done anything like this so take my hat off to abc and paul lee because its gutsy and cool. What do you hope people get out of it. Me felicity. I think that they will connect with the characters. I think theyll see a bit of themselves in all of the characters and i think that you know hopefully theyll be invested in these the story, how deeply affected these people are because of this terrible tragedy and how it turns their life around forever. I think theyll want to come back and, you know follow these characters because what you think youre watching is radically different than what happens to the characters. Youre actually going to get some resolution at the end. There is resolution. As well. You know were calling this way back wednesday. I dont know if you were prepped for this. I think we found your first appearances on television. Both of you. Really . Take a look. Hey, i thought you two guys just had dinner. Yeah that was an hour ago. Hey, tomato. All right.
