and my kids are home. and everybody is healthy and they like me. and that is -- that's not always -- that's not always the case. and cody's lovely girlfriend came as well. we sat out -- any day you can sit outside and just enjoy spring and be with your family and eat a good meal, the weather, and thank god for -- that was sunrise. >> you are getting quite good at the tweeting action. >> yeah. i did my devotions on a beautiful easter morning and saw that sunrise and resurrection sunday, yeah, yeah, yeah. how about you? yours was a little noisier? >> i had a houseful. two nieces, one is 3 and one is 7, and my mom and my brother and his wife, all five were crow barred into my apartment. we had so much fun. we made some mistakes. we left the chocolate easter bunnies out on the windowsill, and you know what happened? everything melted down. we had such a good time with the kids and everything. we did a lot of things this weekend. we went to see "aladin". >> i hear it is terrific. >> we went to the park. i'll do my favorite thing right now. ellen's stardust diner. if you ever come to new york, go to ellen's stardust diner on broadway. it is where people who want to be on broadway or who have been on broadway are waiters and waitresses and they sing. the guy announced when we got there, he said, do you know this past year 12 waiters or waitresses went on to broadway or off broadway or traveling shows. so a lot of people get things. so you're there, the waiters are taking your order and singing. some video? >> i think so. >> singing. ♪ >> that was "frozen." we made a special request for "frozen ." and then somebody else sang something else. we have that one. ♪ isn't she lovely >> it continues, all day long. it opens early. >> 7:00 a.m. to midnight. the line is down the street, around the block. worth it. worth it. >> shall i do mine? >> why not? >> even as we're speaking, our precious natalie is running in the boston marathon. >> yes. >> she's got a really bad sciatica. so lift up a little prayer for her. i thought today would be a good day to have this boston -- i love this life is good products. there is nothing -- nothing stronger than love. >> they do great stuff. frank's favorite thing in the world is his yellow life is good coffee cup. >> you're kidding? >> he won't drink his coffee in the morning without it. got to be in that cup. it has come to that. that's what we do. >> all right. >> mine says fresh cup of mercy. his says life is good. when you get to be our age and still got a pulse, it's good. >> if you want a cute alert, we have to keep showing you this baby. >> we can't stop. >> prince george turned 9 months tomorrow. he went to the zoo. look how he bounces around. okay. every time you see him -- >> first of all, i love everything she's worn this trip. she looks so -- >> he likes -- is it a rabbit? >> it is an australian bilby, which is not a rabbit. >> and it is named after him. >> this one is named george? look at him. let him in. >> okay. this kid is so curious and adorable. and they're so great. >> aren't they? >> yeah. >> he wants in. oh, my god, it is the australian easter bunny. oh! >> i know. >> i can't. >> i can't get enough of him. >> he looks like the little kid in "heaven is for real". >> he does. chewing on anything. he's teething. >> i bet you if we ran this video our entire hour, we would have the highest ratings we have ever had. oh, my god, so cute. >> all right, he's so happy because he doesn't know he's royal. >> right. you're right. >> just loved. >> now the opposite of cute. this is a smackdown. >> oh, hoda. >> friday or thursday we teed up "the real housewives of atlanta" reunion, we said there were police called and 911 and there was blood. not really. but anyway, here's what actually happened. let's watch. >> you don't know what you're talking about. you're standing up here -- >> you are a dumb [ bleep ]. shut up. >> you want to hit me. i will [ bleep ] you up. >> no, no, no. no, no. no, no, no. stop. stop! >> i can't believe i did that. i can't believe i did that. i embarrassed myself. >> i embarrassed myself? >> that's what porta said. and kenya called the cops on her. she got arrested. >> i try it break up fights with my dogs, not people there rolling around. >> andy got in the middle of it. have you ever been so mad that you thought you could knock somebody's block off. have you ever been so ticked? >> what if you just did it like they did? >> like you did on the basketball court. tell that story again, hoda. >> we were losing so badly and i was embarrassed and humiliated and i was going for a layup and the girl stole it from me and on top of everything and i was on my back and i reached back for her ankle and i yanked it! and it felt good. sometimes you just got to do it. so kenya and porta, we feel you. >> oh, gosh. a lot of cleavage there. a lot of cleavage in atlanta. >> a lot of cleavage. a lot. there is more to come on our sister network on bravo. >> okay. >> okay. >> so kim novak is speaking out. you remember from the oscars. >> yes. >> a lot of people don't know kim novak was the reigning beautiful movie star of her day. i don't know when that would have been. and she disappeared from the scene for a while. she took a lot of criticism for the way she -- for whatever people assumed she had done to her face. she spoke at the oscars and other people -- this is her before. and now. and so donald trump tweeted, that -- >> i'm not going to say it. i didn't see what he tweeted. anyway, apparently a lot of people were commenting about her. she addressed and then she was -- when she came along the red carpet when al and i were there, i noticed she was a little disconcerted. she didn't -- she seemed overwhelmed by what is going on -- why are you laughing? >> i'm not. i'm listening. >> hoda, i want you to get -- >> i'm listening. >> i didn't know what was going on. now she said -- she's written a letter and she said, listen, i'm going to stand up to the bullies. unkind cruel things. she took a pill to relax, and wasn't eating. was going on a three-day fast. >> it must be -- when you're out of the spotlight and step in and everyone criticizes you, it is terrible. she calls it bullying and she said she understands what teenagers and young kids feel like and how it affects their lives. >> when she was a major star, there was confidential magazine, there was none of the social media that immediate vitriol you get from people. i think her time out of the spotlight, she probably felt pressure to i want to look really good for the oscars and probably did too much and she probably fasted too long and, you know, and didn't need the pill or maybe she did, who knows, but i felt bad. you know, anytime but -- our question is, should we call this bullying? >> that's a good question. >> what do you think? is that bullying or just life as we know it now because people think you want their opinion on stuff, on absolutely everything. we know what your opinion on this is. >> check this out. let's pretend your packed your bags to go on a flight and you go on the plane and sometimes they say the overheads are too full, you have to check it. in the bag let's say you had your camera and stuff, things you wanted to take good care of. so you hand your bag to the baggage guy and say i wish i could have checked it and get on the plane and look out the window and this happens. >> walking down the stairs, there we go. >> literally -- just throwing them. i guess it didn't hit the ground. they thought they were -- did one of them knock on the ground. >> i don't know. i just know that guy was in trouble. the video was shot by the guy who wants you to know. dwayne stewart of vancouver. >> yeah. can you imagine if you had like a duffel bag or backpack and -- anyway. that's not great. but there were a lot of stairs, maybe there should be a ramp or a slide. >> something easier. >> air canada released a statement saying this goes against their baggage handling procedures. bags are to be hand carried and an investigation has been launched. they didn't actually return our calls, though. >> did we call them? we tried. okay. so here's the thing. have you ever gone into a restroom and someone is on the phone when they walk in and remain on the phone, you can still hear them in the stall on the phone. that -- well, the social qs column, phil galanes addressed this about men taking phones into the bathroom and they say you often see guys walking in while doing their business while on the phone. and phil had this to say. he said the most hideous part is subjecting everyone else to our daily lives. we should stop doing this but we never will. >> meaning -- i think he used the word banal life, which is fascinating to you but annoying -- >> and kind of gross. >> yeah. to everybody else. >> yeah. i do think -- there is the hygiene issue which is you're on your phone, and you're in there, and, you know -- >> yeah. women do it too. we have to be fair. no male bashing. it is earth week and you shouldn't do that stuff. we're celebrating with a green product every single day. this is a candle made from reclaimed beverage bottles. $12. 100% of the proceeds helps protect clean water by supporting global green grants. new details on kim and kanye's wedding. >> that and a whole lot more in today's "buzz." we'll be right back. >> i love this song. it is time for "today's buzz" and all the hollywood gossip you missed while you were celebrating over the weekend. >> here with us is naughtybutnicerob.com's rob shuter. >> hello, darling. >> we missed you. nice to have you back. >> it's been a while. >> this is interesting. lindsay lohan made a confession, if you will, on oprah's show. tell us what happened. >> last night was the final of lindsay's reality show which they call a docu-series on the network, and right at the end of the show, like an after thought, lindsay drops this enormous bombshell saying that she had suffered a miscarriage during filming. there she is. >> very long story. but that's why on the show when it says she doesn't want to come down, she doesn't want to come down, i couldn't move. i was sick. >> they were asking her about missing several episodes, quite a few episodes they didn't tape so they put up a graphic on the screen. they asked her what was it like taping this program and she dropped this bombshell. dina lohan, her mother, on twitter, tweeted to oprah, please call me. >> it is not confirmed. >> not confirmed. people are very suspicious of this. people -- people are talking about it. i think it puts it in a place with lindsay where everybody wants this girl to just get well and be better. >> were you surprised at the oprah series went such a short time. >> the ratings were not good. what they did do, they had two episodes left, oprah wanted this over with. they did a two-hour finale to get it out of the way. but eight episodes, the numbers were not good. i think the backlash that oprah got was surprising. people are wondering why are you doing this? is this the sort of programming you want -- >> she was trying to help her. you don't get help with cameras all around you, you just -- it's impossible. >> and marriages don't get better. >> and nothing gets healed. >> let's talk "the voice." christina aguilera is pregnant and leaving the show for a bit. >> i think the success of the show is constantly reinventing itself without throwing out the baby here. it is such a great show. they don't change it. they tweak it, so young and hip and cool. there she is. and so that's the name that is being floated around as a possible replacement, a rotating cast, christina aguilera, and nbc has not confirmed this, but that's the name that everybody is saying. i think it is looking pretty much like a done deal. i think they'll have great chemistry. a new rocker chick to the panel. maybe it will be great. >> i would love to hear her personality. i don't know her. >> she's fun. she's a wild woman. she's really fun. so i think her and the boys, they'll be great. i love that show. >> kim and kanye getting married. what is happening? >> they were all preparing for it. what we're being told is for the wedding, guests will be asked not to take any photographs, not to talk about it and this is not that rare in -- >> confidentiality agreement. >> and this isn't that rare in hollywood. a lot of times celebrities want to sell or control the way the pictures of their wedding are released to the public. that makes sense, i think. and so kim and kanye are no exception. if pictures do leak out, then their value goes down the toilet, not worth as much money. they want to make sure they control the pictures. this is not kim's first big wedding, so i think they're being very conscious about that fact. i think it is a clever move. >> what do you say long-term? do you think that's going to last? >> i think the jury is out, but i'm optimistic, and i would love to believe that it will. >> look at rob. >> so cute. >> we should point out, rob, we did reach out to kim and kanye's people, but -- >> they haven't called us back. >> thank you so much. >> don't go anywhere, everybody. you could be getting a big surprise, you could be. you could be our fan of the week. but probably not. and the "game of thrones" actress natalie dormer is here. scrubbing bubbles, we have toilet duty at the local fire station! 20 guys use this toilet. let's bubble! our toilet gel works with every flush! monday shift?

>> tell us about that. >> yeah, absolutely. totally. yeah. >> you didn't come from a performing home. >> no. i was the black sheep of the family, completely. >> when did you know you wanted to be an actress? >> when you find yourself talking to yourself in the mirror, you're either going to be a schizophrenic or an actor. >> what did your parents say when you said this is the path i want to go down? >> they were supportive, but maybe you want to have a degree or a backup, but, you know, a lot of actors or creators, musicians would say do you have a plan b? it is not necessarily healthy to have a plan b. >> exactly. you got to be single minded, don't you? >> how did "the hunger games" come about. how did you get that gig? >> i was -- i was busy shooting and busy working. i set myself down on tape. i was in england. i put myself down on audition tape. i made it home and sent it to francis lawrence, the director. he responded and i got offered the role. it was incredible. >> they wanted you to shave -- >> my whole head. >> your whole head. >> mm-hmm. >> did you hesitate or just, zoom -- >> it is "the hunger games". >> exactly. i was, like, such incredible series, novels and films. i was, like, i'll pretty much do anything. i got away lightly in the end. i reconciled myself to shaving my entire head and then had a conference with the director and he said, i was thinking maybe we would just go half. >> can we see the half? >> this is recently? >> october. it is great because -- i can hide it and obviously margaery wears a wig, so "game of thrones" didn't need to have a panic attack. >> you do a lot of period pieces. is that something you enjoy or you choose? >> i look for a good script, for a good story, a good character. in the american industry, i'm known for margaery and angolin. that's only two roles out of a lot that i played. >> how old were you when you got your first role? >> i came to new york and did screen tests with joni reese myers, i was 23, 24. that was amazing to come to the big apple and audition. >> you look 24 now. >> oh, my gosh. >> what is your tattoo? what does that say? or is that too private? >> you can ask. that's from a litany against fear, from the novel doom, from the '60s. to remind me to take myself out of my comfort zone. >> and be brave. like your hair. >> speaking of that, we'll ask you to do a little -- we'll play a little target shooting. will you play with us?

>> it does happen to all of us. if it is starting to happen a lot more often, it could be a sign of something more serious. before you get too worried there are tests you can do at home that could help save your life. >> barbara hannah grufferman is a contributor to aarp which featured an article on this topic and she's here along with dr. donna gamora so we don't panic. good morning. >> it does make you edgy. you see someone -- i've done it here in the halls here, why i see someone, i know them and their name is not coming to me. >> for some of us, it has been a long-term thing anyway. so don't panic. >> part of it is the aging process anyway. you lose some cognitive skills as you age. >> there is a test for this. the way this test is designed is you look at 20 different faces on a computer and if no hair and no context. so you are just looking at this part of the face. you don't have to score a perfect score. what they found is people who scored less than 50% were more likely to have something called primary progressive aphasia, an early form of dementia and it is rare. so if you take this test online and you have any results that alarm you, talk to your doctor. don't panic. >> you can do this at home by doing something called name that famous face by looking at a magazine, have somebody cover the name of the person, of the celebrity, and then see if you can get that name. >> and you get a point if you know. >> that's not a fair test in my analysis because some people live in those celebrity magazines. they know everybody. other people find that a complete waste of time and are off reading dostoyevsky. i don't know that my mother would know who lindsay lohan is. >> make sure you're not forgetting people's names who you see every day. or part of your daily life. >> absolutely. let's talk about parkinson's. there is not a great diagnosis for this. >> we think about tremors, which happens. there are characteristics, some things that parkinson's patients go through at the same time simultaneously. and one is a loss of smell, like especially a strong smell like garlic. and another is a very abnormal rem, the dream stage of sleep where you're fighting in your sleep or acting out. >> a lot of people have that. how do you know if it is something serious. >> this was based on a survey of people who had early parkinson's disease. the investigators kind of cheated because they knew they had parkinson's already. the third symptom they found which was very alarming is these patients tended to have bad constipation for 30 days or more. if you have bad constipation for three days or more, take something. but if you have all three together, that's really the warning sign and you -- >> and the change in the sense of smell. we know smell is actually associated with the first cranial nerve and the sense of smell becomes diminished before the other symptoms like tremors. >> okay. >> the third test is interesting, involves smelling peanut butter, my favorite food, actually. >> it is a marker for that. and you need someone to help you with this, open up a jar of peanut butter, close your eyes, hold one nostril shut and have someone put it a foot away from you and move it closer and closer. when you smell it, say stop and do the reverse with the other nostril. and you want to be able to smell the peanut butter the same in both sides. >> what if you have an adenoid or something? >> that's the punch line. the punch line is, one of the things we say in medicine, when you hear hoof beats, think horses, not zebras. much more likely you could have allergies, a bad cold, an adenoid or deviated septum. but if you get a surprising result, mention it to your doctor at your next appointment along with any other symptoms you may have. >> nothing -- no cure for parkinson's. no cure for alzheimer's. how much of an effect can this have on your life knowing already something you wouldn't have discovered? >> parkinson's there are medications where we can intervene early and other remedies. alzheimer's and, again, primary ppa, which is rare, you know, not a whole lot we can do early but there are some medications that have given earlier you can have a better outcome. >> ladies, thank you so much. we appreciate it. >> thank you for having us. >> to read the full article, head to klgandhoda.com. it is earth week. to celebrate, we're testing your green iq with this question. >> which material takes the longest to break down?

>> you should have waited. >> use an ereader. nothing has to die for that. >> this is a -- >> it is about the same. >> c is the correct answer. this is a tricky one. initially manufacturing an ereader takes almost as many emissions up as making about 20 books. so for the first year, it is about a wash. later on, the ereader might be better. >> my head is going to explode. what's next? >> in the average home, which of the following uses the most water? flushing the toilet, filling the tub, a ten-minute shower or one load of clothes in the washer. >> sascha, the correct answer is c, taking a ten minute shower. >> that is correct. >> that is correct. it can be up to 50 gallons of water. for one shower. >> i think we have time for double or nothing. double or nothing, kathie you might win. >> what percentage of hybrid car owners replace their hybrids with another hybrid when it is time to get a new car?
