She got a spray tan. I love well, ive never done this before and my daughter, were going off for a little mother daughter trip. She said, some come on, mom. Get it with me because its all organic. Its called zen bronze. You go in naked . I havent been naked for 24 years. How does it work . I put on a bathing suit for the first time in about ten years. And you go in and you stand, and a lovely lady named donna did it. And then you cant look at her arms. I know it. It just looks gorgeous on cassidy. And then i realized, well, cassidy is going to be 20. So of course she looks gorgeous. Theres only one person darker. Tan mom. Put me up against tan mom d and see how so i have a ways to go. Nice. Spot on. Okay. There are some issues that have come out today. I dont know if you saw the cover of Rolling Stone. Its not officially on newsstands yet but theyve released the cover. And theres a picture of the boston bombing suspect. I didnt realize thats a picture he took of himself. Its a selfie. Dzhokhar tsarnaev. And theres a lot of controversy about this picture because a lot of folks are looking at that and saying that they are glamorizing this guy. They made him look rock starrish, a la jim morrison, who has been on the cover of that magazine also. And some places have decided thats the jim morrison cover. Right. Some people decided not to carry this magazine. Cvs decided against it. Several companies. Yeah. And i think its certainly their right. People are outraged. I guess some sort of a poll was taken. 90 of the people said it went way too far. Way too far. Apparently the article inside, which nobody is really talking about, is quite tough on him, right . It talks about how a kid goes from what seemingly was a good kid when he was young and then what happened along the way and they describe him as a monster in some of their writings. So i think when you see the cover, i think it because it looks like its treated. It looks like it almost looks like its photoshopped a little bit. With the shadow and all of that. There are young girls out there saying thats so disturbing. These young girls. Oh, he couldnt be guilty of that. Hes so cute. Hes too cute. Im in love with dzhokhar. Then youre in love with a murderer. Well, remember, it was ted bundy. It was the same thing back then. When theres a goodlooking i dont think hes good looking. Maybe its because i know his soul is so black, you know, so dark. When cvs decided not to sell this i think we just had a statement there that is here. Hang on a second. Cvs basically heres their statement. As a company with deep roots in new england and a strong presence in boston we believe this is the right decision out of respect for the victims of the attack and their loved ones. And Rolling Stone went on to say the cover story were publishing this week falls within the tradition of journalism and Rolling Stones longstanding commitment to thoughtful coverage of political and social okay. Youre not old enough to remember this. But when they put Charlie Manson on the front. It caused a big but if you are talking about the news, the news is often made by evil people. And so what do you do . Put somebody nice on the cover . But then hide the other on the inside . I dont know. And sometimes people try to use a very controversial cover just to get people to buy the magazine. And weve seen it on different levels. You know, this is obviously a completely different level. But when demi moore was naked on vanity fair people wanted to see the article or there was someone was breastfeeding on the cover of time magazine. Its a business. So youve got to create some interest and some buzz. Okay. You know whos creating buzz . Honey booboo. Okay. Honey booboo is back. Arent you thrilled . This is interesting. Theres a new way we found out yesterday to watch honey booboos show. People say when you watch the show you always wonder what it smells like. Because they talk about a lot of smells apparently. So in People Magazine and us weekly they put one of these scratch and sniff things in the magazine so when you watch the show you are supposed to scratch off number 1 when number 1 came up on the screen and number 2 and number 3. Were going to watch a clip and scratch off and smell as it happens. Okay. Our own version of pork and beans. Lets get frying. Im hungry. Logan. 3. That was 3. Pork and beans. Instead of hot dogs were going to put logan in it. Definitely smells like pork and beans. It sure does. What was that other one . 4. Whats happening . Hold on. Cookies. More butter. More slippery. Yeah, okay. I like that. 5. This is nbc news. This is excellent. Ooh. Putrid. What was that . That was the exhaust from the gokarts. Is there anything gross or is that it . No, thats all. Gee, that was fun. Watch and sniff. By the way, they are taking this honey booboo decided shes no longer going to go into modeling. No, her beauty pageants. Beauty pageants. She doesnt have time with her very, very big career. Okay. Good for her. Emmy nominations. They are out, you guys. Put the ruler down, hoda. No, because why is this here . You know why thats there. You want to talk about the emmy nominations or quickly, the emmys. A lot of people will be looking at these emmy nominations and go, what is that show . Who is that person . Because a lot of people dont they dont watch everything on netflix. But netflix made history. That show house of cards, which is so awesome. Youve been talking about it for since it came on. Oh, my god. Yeah. That was nominated for an emmy. Thats going against Downton Abbey and a bunch of great, great, great shows. But you said kevin spacey is amazing in it. He is. And veep got nominated. Your favorite. So did julia. A lot of some surprises. Check out the whole list of nominees and congratulations to everybody. We have a ruler on our set. Why do we have one, hoda . Okay. So here it is. We have a ruler on our set because we were talking about the average size. Of . A mans johnson. Its a word were allowed to use. So the average size in case you are wondering if your name is johnson. You know what im saying . The average size johnsons johnson. The average size of a mans johnson, according to surveys, is Indiana University asked over 1,600 men. Asked them. So you know theyre lying. Theyre just telling whatever they want. So the correct the average size is 5 1 2. So here is 5 1 2. I dont even want to use the word but that means an erect johnson. Wow. Okay. Anyway, 5 1 2. So but heres the bad news. What is the bad news . Kinsey did a survey years ago. And guess what . One of the earliest penis sizes you had to say it once. Was conducted by Alfred Kinsey in the 1950s. So apparently they said the smallest. 1. 6 inches. Well, thats no, the before. It used to be 6. 25. 6 1 4. So johnsons are shriveling. But the smallest johnson is 1. 6 inches. And the largest johnson they said was 10. 2. Why are we talking about this . I didnt want to and someone did. But we have to do a shoutout to one of the crew members. Speaking of johnsons. We made him a very popular guy. He was on our show yesterday. Kathie lee was comparing her hairdo to yosef. If you remember, yosef is the one without hair and kathie lee looked like and everyone said oh, my god, yosefs cute. Hes adorable. Hes got a great personality. And he had just said to us the other day that you were ready to find someone to be in a relationship with. I didnt think that would be on the air, though. You work at nbc news. These things happen. So heres the deal. A bunch of people saw you and thought you were cute. Hard not to think that. Of course. Here it is. Lara wrote in, yosef is a hottie. Jenny wrote, hello, yosef. Thats nice eye candy. And stacy said, is yosef single . Because hes one good looking guy. Yes, he is. And hes a sweetheart.

We consume over two billion cups of coffee every week without a second thought. 5hour energy has less caffeine than some starbucks coffees, plus it has vitamins and nutrients. Its simple. Caffeine with vitamins and nutrients. Its the combination that makes it so great. Before you make a decision, get the facts. Try a sip and find out why so many people love 5hour energy. Over the last few years, far too many people have died from overdoses, accidental or not. And its not just celebrities like glee actor cory monteith. It affects families all over the country according to the centers for Disease Control and prevention. At least 100 people in the United States die each day from drug overdoses. Here with help are clinical psychologist Elizabeth Lombardo and psychiatrist dr. Heather levrin. Nice to see you both, ladies. When we heard about cory monteith, hes not someone who we thought of when it came to drugs. We didnt know that part of him. But a lot of people wondered what may have actually killed him. And some people thought it was because he was a heavy user, stopped using, and then could have possibly gone back to his normal dose. Is that something that could have happened . Thats what happens a lot. Especially because he had been in rehab hospital, he hadnt used for a while. When they go back they go back to the same amount. And that his body isnt used to it anymore. And so that can kill you. Young people and heroin. Is that something its the chic drug right now. Can you imagine . You know, in 2008 prescription painkillers overtook marijuana as the most common gateway drug. Oh, really . And prescription painkillers lead to heroin. That opiate addiction it is very real. Its such a tough one to kick. And these days its so common. Is rehab really what you have to do . I mean because i know cory went through it. But i think a lot of people may have concerns that maybe a friend, maybe someone they know is using. Is there whats the best route to go . They need to get help. They need to get help. And if they cant do it on their own they need to get help from elsewhere. And the key too is not just going to rehab but its when you come out. We have that safe place where hopefully and your friends. And your lifestyle. You think about with cory. He went back to the old place where he used to be. And so all those the cues were there for him to start using again. Thats an interesting question. Because they said he almost lived a double life. At work he never used. He was clean. He was ready. Was it the work that was giving him a purpose to get up every morning and when he didnt have that he would use . I think, you know, it was a lot of hard work for him not to use. You know, i heard people saying that it took a lot of time and effort to keep him clean even when he was oh. The wonderful thing now is we do have treatments that work. We have medications that work. We have soboxone and methadone. There is help. And you have to want it. You have to want it. A lot of women its not heroin or marijuana, it is painkillers. I saw something on nightly a couple weeks ago that said prescription painkillers are they kill more women than Ovarian Cancer does. Is it what is it . Women arent we dont want to feel any pain so well take medicine, more so than we need . Well, i think that, first of all, theres overprescription. Doctors need a lot of education. Theres a statistic that walking in for the first complaint of back pain, most people walk out with a prescription for an opiate painkiller. Which is a big gun. Thats heavy duty. So the doctors need better education. The doctors need better prescribing habits and the patients need to be aware, they need to be told, this is an addictive medication, its only for shortterm use. You should not take it if you are not having pain. And a lot of people never hear that. Its also such a biomedical society. If something hurts you take a pill. Where theres so Much Research showing that other approaches to treatment, to reducing pain to help with depression are so effective. I think sometimes if you medicate a lot you dont know. And i thought about this myself. You dont know when youre past it because youre always taking meds throughout. You dont know whats normal anymore. Is the pain over or even emotional pain if you need a drug for that. Ladies, thanks so much. Thank you for joining us. Hoda, do you want to be a gracious host or a guest . Well, definitely the guest. Weve got the perfect hostess gift for the giving. But first these messages. By the way, congratulations on your two emmy nominations good morning.
