Beautiful, beautiful set. And youre wearing white after labor day because youre a rule breaker and i like that about you. They said we were allowed. Didnt they . Until they come along and tell us who they are, were going to break the rules. There was a big shooting in washington dc, and our hearts and prayers go out to the victims and their families, and the alleged shooter was shot dead. Now the questions of what motivated him and why, so im sure well learn a lot more about him in the days to come. And more importantly, a lot more about the victims. Do you see a pattern yet with some of the other Mass Shootings . You know what surprised me, when a newscaster will come on and say this is the worst shooting since sandy hook, or this is the worst shooting since and theyre all so close together. It used to be i remember columbine. Now its like since a few months ago, and a few before that, and there always seems to be so many more. Theres a rush to judgement, but the truth is we dont know enough yet to say why or anything else. So we want to welcome you again to our new home. We wondered what it would have been like to be down here. Apparently jimmy fallon took a looksee at the new studio and had some fun. I bet at our expense. They have a new set on the today show. Its a beautiful new studio. The desk sits on a 360degree rotating platform. Or as hoda and kathie lee put it, the room wasnt spinning . Its a new thing here . Is it also vibrating as well . I love you guys. It does spin, by the way. It does spin, it reminds me of the west bury music fair out in long island. And were going to prove to you that it can spin. Spin it we need a disco ball, thats all we need. Wow. You know who is over there . Who . A baton twirler. We have one thing for you to say to all of those baton twirlers out there. Sorry. We got to talk about it. As were twirling. So yesterday, we were talking about the miss America Pageant this is crazy, by the way, isnt it . Jerry, i heard that who is that guy back there . Who are you . What is your name . Matt murray. How come we have to come on the show to meet who is on our show. Matt murray, nice to meet you. Well be checking you out a little bit later. Hey so we havent worked out all of the kinks. You know when you decorate your house, there are other people in it that youve never seen before. Its a lot like that. So we need to say that we are such idiots. No you say it, okay. We said something yesterday that were ashamed of. No were not. There is all kinds of ignorance in the world. We didnt mean to offend half the world. So apparently we were asking about baton twirling as a talent on the miss america show. And we were wondering if there was a potential career from that kind of talent. We werent sure what it would be. Apparently everyone from the baton twirling world sent lots and lots of pictures of themselves twirling batons and there is kathie lee. That to me was my baton at the age of 6 or 7. But our Facebook Page was overwhelmed by people who were telling us that we were unaware of what a skill it is. And it is a skill because you have to be coordinated, which im not. That to me, seems like dancing. But that aint easy. Just last night i attempted that at home and it didnt work out too well. Heres some of the comments we got. Baton twirlers go on to teach others. Many have children in programs across the country, and some of you said you have received College Scholarships for baton twirling, so we want to say my bad. Sorry. And jpdr just just to do a real mea culpa, were going to bring in a guest baton twirler. Her name is Alyssa Johnson ebby. Hi. Nice to meet you. Do you think that were ignorant for what we said . A little. Even though i am one of you in my heart, you saw me with my little baton, i just didnt go on to have a career in it. So i didnt convinced it was possible. So we didnt know what could be done with that skill. There is lots that can be damager done with this skill. I started when i was 6yearsold and i have competed internationally since 1991 and i made a professional career out of it. I joined the cast of the show blast. I did a year tour across the United States and all over the place. Why dont you show us one of your tricks. Were going to attempt shes a mom of three, by the way, right . So you dont lose your batoning skill . No. We want to see what she is going to do first. Were going to start with a finger twirl. I used to be able to do that. That looks easy. This is a little twirl. I have arthritis now. You guys start with this, scoop the ice cream. I need a bigger one. There you go. Just scoop the ice cream. This is what we teach the little kids. Hey, were offended. There you go. That was almost it. Oh, nice. We would throw it up but we dont want to break a light. Wow thank you for coming to see us and putting us straight. We apologize. Go and search wait a minute, is that the door bell . [ laughter ] i think somebody has come to see us. Wait, he is over here where there is no door. Hello, we hear you have been waiting for us for two days. Were so sorry. Have the wine and the chocolate. Which one shall we try . You can have the cookie or the cinnamon praleeen. There is passion fruit. I dont need it, but she does. Yum. Thank you, you can leave that on the table. Thank you. You never know what else will show up. Good luck. Mercy. Au revoyeur. What great house warming gifts these are. I think there will be more. You do . I do. Thank you. Tonight is a big night if you enjoy watching jeopardy. And about 10 million do on a nightly basis. We were asked to be on jeopardy and i was terrified that we would have to answer a question. They said no, we just want to exploit you. I like mine dirty. Like you have to remind me. Kathie lee and hoda. Were shaking things up on the next jeopardy thats the end of civilization, people. As we know it. It is official, how come youre not finishing your cookie . Miley cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have ended their engagement. Apparently she unfollowed him on twitter. If frank and i broke up, i wouldnt know. How would i know hed unfriended me and unfollowed me. We just go on because i wouldnt know that he broke up with me. Apparently you can find out if people unfollow you. Why do we need one more way to find out someone thinks were an idiot. Has anybody ever unfriended you on facebook . I dont know, im sure they have, but i dont know. You know what im upset about . This has nothing to do with anything. My cable went out yesterday and that meant my computer was out. I called time warner and you have to books because you read on kindle. Time warner said well call you back in 30 minutes. And i waited patiently and stared at the phone. You know how you get crazy . They called back, and i said its not an outage. They said its an outage. Its not just you. It will be on tonight or tomorrow morning. You know what happens this morning, no cable no nothing. I called back they said it wasnt an outage, that it was just me and now theyre going to send somebody on sunday to my apartment. Sunday. Youll be out of town probably. Exactly. And when you dont have cable and internet, its all connected together youre literally in the desert. I know, girard. Is there anybody else at the door . Apparently not. What else is going on to complain about . Apparently we have to go. We have to go, we have one of the funniest and most talented women on television. Talking about mindy from the mindy project. Were moving around. I like it. I am really bummed about my cable, honestly. Nobody cares, hoda. Well be right back. Were back now in time to reveal elvis durans artist of the month. We love these. Every month a radio dj is back with an upcoming musician to keep your eye on. And youre here to tell us who the lucky person is. Today is a big, big, big celebration. Tori kelly, with the most adorable left dimple you have ever seen. You can talk to her. Shes right here. Why did you pick tori kelly . You would think she is new, shes not.

You do it your way, dont let the big boys get in the way. Who do you look at and say i love her style and want to be kind of like her. I grew up listening to a lot of soulful music, so people like jill scott. And even maxwell and kind of a lot of different things, really. But youre friends with jewel, right . Yes. I found out she was here, cant wait to say hi. The song she is performing today is dear no one. Wait until you hear the depth of the words in the song. As she is singing it, when you find an artist like tori that can do that and really convince you she really means every word she is singing, it really makes a difference. Youre about to see it. And hear it. Are you ready . Okay. Were ready too. So my artist of the month, tori kelly, here we go. I like being independent not so much af know investment no one to tell me what to do i like being by myself dont got to entertain anybody else no one to answer to but sometimes i just want somebody to hold someone to give me the jacket when its cold got that young love even when were old yeah sometimes i want someone to grab hand pick me up, pull me close, be my man i will love you to the end so if youre out there i swear to be good to you but im still looking for my future someone because when the time is right, youll be here but for now do you know what this is your love song dear no one, this is your love song that was amazing thats crazy.

Do people think [ all speak at once ] wow. So tori kelly. Im the only one that loves miley. Whats your take away. No, no, no. You know what, miley is just being miley.
