Some of them are so amazing you cant believe its really the actual person. So we thought it would be fun to go down memory lane because every decade does seem to have its particular looks. We just thought this would be a lot of fun at our expense. Weve had many looks over the years. Some good, some bad, some downright ugly. Lets take a look at some of them through the years. Oh, god you know what . I hate thats hoda. Oh, really . I like my necklace. You know what . This is rude. Oh, my god. No need to get that dramatic. All right. Were making progress. Not much. Yes, thats when we first got together. We leapt right through the golden years. Thats when we first started oh, wait. Here we go. My turn. Oh the olympics with frankie. Yeah. That was good hair. I kind of like that look. That was also you do it with no, just a little curling rod. What about the sleek look . Im just looking at how thin my face was. I like the bangs. Get over it. Theyre gone. Come on now. Well, i say i win that one. Or has time rewritten every line oh, i could listen to Barbra Streisand all day long. She sings beautifully. Do you know what movie thats from . Hodawoman.

The amazing marvin hamlisch, whom we miss desperately. Do you remember when you found your first gray hair . You know whats funny .

Well, i will have white it will look like this it will look like that except white. And everyone will think i did it. I was wrongfully convicted. I didnt do it but i will look like i did. Shes a crazy lady. She did it. So so when did you get yours . Mid20s. Yeah, yeah. And everybody says oh, youre so blond. The truth is ive been wearing the exact same color formula on my hair for about 20some years. Its just that i have so much gray now that it takes the color differently.

Check. That would be good. Look at that. I do have some. You know what it is . I never go without coloring my hair so i never knew i had anything. Dont pull it out. Its not that im freaked out by the gray hair. It just that its come on so suddenly. I wonder if the baby gave me gray hair. Maybe it is the stress of handling work and the baby and trying to balance all of that. But you know, bill has gray hair, too. Dont tell anyone. Its our secret. Right. Only millions saw. I dont feel sorry for her at all. No. Because shes 38 years old when she finds her first one. We love giuliana. Yeah, we love giuliana. Shes awesome. This is one of those funny videos we love.
