doug morris. men who have great hands -- and i do notice a man's hands. that's one of the first things i notice, you want to know if they're thin and spindly or can hold a basketball, the good kind. so, anyway if you want to keep your hands looking young, you should wash them with lukewarm water. >> not hot. >> and not cold. >> moisturize them after showering for five solid minutes who has five minutes? and use a base coat on your nails that would avoid staining which also isn't true. my fingernails get yellow and i use a base coat all the time. someone said the trick -- take half a lemon, cut it and rub it on -- >> the cuticles. >> all over the nails. and gone. >> okay. i believe you now. there is this couple, you guys that have won the lottery three times in one month. in virginia. >> it is crazy. >> calvin spencer and baterra have literally won the lottery three times in this month. separate drawings. >> they won $50,000 from a pick four drawing. they won $681,000 from a scratch off ticket. and $1 million from a powerball drawing. >> the $600,000 one was -- they took the lump sum and paid their taxes and that was after that. >> what?

>> beginning of april is always a very difficult time for the organization called child health. going to talk about it again on wednesday. whenever they have the ladies that will be down in d.c., lighting the candles. we're up to five children now that die every single day from abuse or neglect. so there is a young woman, this is called origami owl. this necklace costs about $52. each charm is -- this little girl was, like, a teenager, she started her own company, and it is a multimillion dollar company already. and everything inside it represents, like, your dog, you make -- it is customized to you. a little nieces, you have king tut, stuff like that, all customized. you would. and you know what, this young woman has personally guaranteed $250,000 to child help every year. this little girl is a multimillionaire. so i love -- i lift my hat off to her if i had one on and say god bless because she's learning how to give back. >> that's great. >> we want you to cook with us. and chef fabio viviani will be here to cook with us, spring dishes with an italian flair. help us decide which recipes he will prepare. go to our website and pick the one you like. >> voting ends tomorrow. >> okay. >> louis licari is here to show you how you can look like your favorite celebs. >> and all the hot hollywood news in "today's buzz" after this. time to get you all caught up on "today's buzz" and the hot hollywood gossip that had everybody talking over the weekend. >> here with the celebrity news you can't live without, is entertainment weekly's correspondent nina teraro. >> so elton john got married -- >> no, he was going to get married. >> i was not finished. >> i was not invited. >> you know you have to get up, they had a huge party -- >> yes, that's what i was thinking about. >> i think my invite was lost in the mail. i heard it was a good party. elton john and his partner announced they'll be getting married in a small ceremony this coming may in england. now that gay marriage is legal over there, yes. so they're going to do a small wedding. as we mentioned, they had a big blowout. they already have everything on their registry -- >> they were talking about the fact that big is not everything to them anymore. just everything is -- everything changes when you have children or should. >> so this is really just the icing on the cake. something to say, hey, we're just like any other couple, we have been together and now we're going to tie the knot. >> they are a little wealthier than other couples, but -- >> yeah. so lady gaga made the news as usual. >> everything coming up roses for lady gaga. she turned out for the first of her seven concerts at the roseland ballroom wearing a head to toe nude mesh body suit with roses strategically placed to cover her lady bits. look at that. she knows how to accessorize. sky high platforms and red veil or mask if you will. this is one of the few outfit changes she made on saturday night. she changed six times for a concert that was only 12 songs. like, can you imagine, like every two songs -- >> not like we change a sheet. when she changes, it is like a lot of work. who wants to work that hard. >> she's an artist. that's what they do. >> savannah asked her if she wasn't performing, what would she be wearing?

>> and what do you do when a friend posted photos of your child without asking permission? >> psychiatrist janet taylor and mario armstrong is here to tell you the dos and don'ts. >> hi, you guys. >> nice to see you both. >> it seems like a given, but apparently it is not. >> no. >> it is not. >> okay. >> 66% of parents say they don't want their kids' photos published without their permission. we need to look at that and identify what our own policy is within our families and ask our friends before we post their kids. >> it is your child's birth day party and lots of kids are at the birthday and you want to show some pictures or post them so your relatives can see them. do you have to call every kid? >> i call this the digital desire moment. people take out their smartphone, start taking pictures of all the kids at the birthday party. seems to be fine but they post it online. you haven't asked consent for all the minors to be into the picture. i think people think about this and ask. >> sign a waiver at the door. >> you can ask, don't assume. if you're taking pictures, i might post these, is this okay? if one person says no, then consider it a no and only post pictures of your own child. >> but the child is with all the kids at the birthday party. >> let's say there is, like, a recital or something, your kid is tap dancing and other kids around. >> i think schools and organizations have to look at this. it is not like the old days when somebody had a picture and you say can i get a copy of this? now it is there. >> the concern is what? >> what is the concern? they're not tagging them and saying who it is and where it was and where they live or anything like that, what is the harm? >> some people are doing all of that, but if they aren't, you're saying, what could be going wrong? number one, don't want photos of your kids in bikinis or in the tub or anything like that. polar end of the spectrum is pedophiles could get a hold of that or show up on sites where you're being associated with pornography and things of that nature. on the other end of the spectrum, you're not getting a chance to build your own online reputation, it is being made for you. >> i think there is a question of misuse and abuse. it also is -- we can teach our kids to be responsible for themselves, online and offline and that's a start. you are responsible for this body you have. and certainly how it is portrayed. >> let's talk about -- okay. when someone takes a picture and we hate it, and it is -- >> that's the world we live in. >> let's say you're at the pool and someone snaps a picture of you, you're out at the beach and someone snaps a picture and it is online and it is unflattering and you want to take it down -- >> i want that up everywhere. that's the last time i looked good. that's the last time. that's the last time. and i enjoy the memory. >> pretend for a minute it was me. so how do you get it off? how do you take it down? >> ask your friend to take it down. if they say no, maybe -- >> what if she won't? she keeps putting it up. >> you need to approach this with caution. if you demand they take it down they may fight back with that, why. if you ask for a favor, look, i'm not comfortable having my pictures on the internet, could you do me a favor and take it off for me. >> by that time, other people could have already -- it is already out there. >> that's the rule of thumb. anything online, even a private facebook page or private tumblr account, if one friend decides to share that was into your account, if one friend decides to share that, it can get out. >> so many kids in college are drunk when they're taking pictures. they're not in their right mind and their minds have not even developed their frontal lobe yet. >> that's right. but i think if someone asks you to take it down, take it down. my daughter will look at photos and say don't post that. and i don't. >> it is also no fun anymore because everyone is like, i don't look good, i don't like that. >> that's instant gratification. you go right through, look to see if you got a great shot and post it. you are in control -- >> what if it is a great shot of you and not the other person. >> that's all that matters. >> thank you. >> thank you, all, very, very much. great advice for soon to be college grads trying to figure out what's next. guess who's with us? >> who? >> louis licari. >> katherine schwarzenegger. >> we'll talk with louis about how to pull your hair off without spending a fortune. >> look like a celeb. >> yeah. what ya got there? oh, new cheez-it grooves. it's a cheez-it, but it's light and crispy like a chip, kind of the best of both worlds. there's more than one world? no. it's just -- they're among us? [ gasps ] you're one of them. help! he's got a probe! it's a pen. [ male announcer ] we take the time for our cheese to mature in our new cheez-it grooves. hey kevin...still eating chalk for hearburn? yea. try alka seltzer fruit chews. they work fast on heart burn and taste awesome. these are good. told ya! i'm feeling better already. alka-seltzer fruit chews. enjoy the relief! you see them in magazines or on the red carpet, gorgeous celebrities with perfect hair and flawless makeup and you wish you could pull off the same look. >> you don't need a team of stylists, you just need "today" contributor and stylist to the stars, louis licari. >> that's right. >> so you say we don't need a professional, louis, to get the look? >> you can do it yourself at home. you might want to go to a salon first to watch what a hairstylist does and take it as a lesson. steal everything. do it at home. >> so let's talk about sonya. >> sonya wants to have the taylor twist look. tell us what you did to get her there. >> well, notice sonya's hair color, first of all, i always love to talk about. this is the new ombre. a very subtle highlight with barely there -- no obvious lines. it looks incredibly natural. >> yeah. >> then what vanessa did is she got a large barrel curling iron and just gave her great waves. this is so easy to do at home, straight blow dry and barrel out and spray. >> ringlets or the barrel down there too? >> down there, but loosely. and look how much she -- she completes the look, notice the pale complexion and the red lip. >> the red lip. >> that smoky eye. >> she always has a heavy line, right. >> do you like taylor? >> of course. >> of course you do. >> you look beautiful. >> she looks like taylor. >> yes, she does. >> now, julianne wants to look like carrie washington. get in line. >> if you sort of, you know, look like the person, then you can steal their style. we don't necessarily want to exactly look like carrie washington, but take the best of them and use it for our own looks, why not? that's what we did here. first step, her hair is slightly softer, lighter than it naturally is. and what we did is we added a few pieces just to add a little bit of volume, little -- >> with a curling iron? >> and then definitely the curling iron. >> in pieces, what do you mean? >> clip-ins. >> oh. >> do you like those? >> i love them. >> they won't damage your hair. >> they won't damage your hair. you can use them or not use them. no big deal. >> used to use them all the time. >> yeah, in, out, whatever. and, again, the curling iron here, again, larger iron, the trick here, she didn't separate. vanessa did not separate the curl. she just left it as it is, and that creates that slight curl, and it really mimics the look. notice -- >> don't comb through it. >> right. >> yes, do not comb through it. >> okay. taylor, we did brush hers softly. >> and makeup looks awesome. >> the makeup, the quivering lip, just like olivia pope. >> so pretty. >> this is helen mirren. >> by the way, i saw betty in the hallway and i was, like, who is she? she looks great. tell us about her look. >> helen mirren, she did this -- helen mirren has gray hair. she highlighted it. this really gives it -- is it blonde or gray but made it much more elegant. the great thing about this coloring, it will never show a root. >> i love it. what did you do? you blew it out and put stuff in it? >> yes. it is mousse. mousse adds volume. so this is slicked back, but soft. then she holds it all in place with spray. >> how did you get the volume up top there? >> again, the mousse. mousse, round brush, traditional blow dry. >> beautiful. >> she does look beautiful, right? perfect haircut. and, again, the big trick here is highlight your gray hair. it works. >> nice job, louis. nice job. >> we'll see you for ambush on thirsty thursday. >> i can't wait. >> fun trivia game about taxes. and arnold schwarzenegger's daughter talks to some famous people on how to get advice on how to be successful. >> and maria's daughter. >> who wrote that piece?
