We all remember what we went through with sandy, and many of us are still going through it with different things. I mean, you werent affected at all in the city with the apartment. Not in the city, but you saw what happened to everybody else. This storm, its in terms of where you live, they keep sort of changing how what the snow amounts are going to be like. Apparently boston and a lot of the northeast up there is going to really get socked. We could get a lot of snow or we could get a few inches. It depends on what happens with the track. Well be sure to tune in on the news and see how much everybody got. From the sun. You know, the grammys are there while were there. I now. Know. Did we plan this . We didnt plan it that way, but there will be a lot of happening. Its hard to even get tickets on a plane the hotels are yeah. We did it, and were going to be there. Heres the deal with the grammys. There is apparently a memo that came out at cbs, and they dont want to see any side boob. No side boob, no butt crack, no we have to read this. Its crazy. Its unbelievable. Please avoid exposing bare fleshy under curves of your buttocks. I love that word. And buttock crack. It says here. Bare thighs or under curvature of the breasts. Can you believe someone is writing that . Is also problematic. Problematic. Please avoid sheer seethrough clothing that could possibly expose female breast nipples. Please be sure the genital region somebody got excited. Please be sure listen. Look at this one. With some guys its so easy. You just say the word. Please be sure the genital region is adequately covered. What region . The general region. Look. There so no visible puffy bare skin exposure. What does that even mean . What puffy are they talking about . Cbs says it shouldnt have been written down in a memo form. Some people need it spelled out for them, and guess what, theyre going to ignore it. Youre talking to the music business. This is from the daily news. Its called crackdown. These are all the outfits people have worn. Toni braxton shes our guest this morning. Well have to ask her about that. There she is in the top corner. Anyway thats interesting. Its not just that. Theyre also saying, you know, language or any language we know because the fcc goes after you bigtime. Gives you huge how do you have time to this is the hard part. Theyre rock stars. They sing this way every other word is nasty, vulgar, Something Like that, and they talk that way, and then all of a sudden theyre supposed to come on television and forget all the their natural rhythms and just say i want to thank my mother and god. It isnt going to happen. Pink looked amazing when she did that. That was great. That was artistry. That didnt feel like exposure. That wasnt exploitive. That was amazing. I think telling rock stars how to dress is not a great idea because now its teeing it up for what will definitely be people showing more. Thats what people do. They say dont show it, and then they show it. I thought toni looked great. I never looked that good one minute in my entire life. Me either. How does that stay up, though . They have ways. They have ways. Lots of tape. Tape and stuff. Front page of the daily news. I know a lot of our audience is going to say we told you we dont want to hear about it anymore, but we are in the news, people. This is alleged from the daily news. It says shes living back at home broke and back at home with mom. Her mom did say i saw in an interview where she was she wanted lindsay to move back home with her because she thought she could keep an eye on her more . There would be less influence by some of the yeah. Anyway, shes back in long island, according to this newspaper, and living in her teenage bedroom where she lived when she was younger. What do you think about what were seeing . If it was just lindsay that needed help, but its that whole family that needs help. If they can get it together and get help together, because its truly a dysfunctional family. I dont think they dont love each other. I think they do love one another. They dont have the skills to cope. All of it seems to be playing out in public because i think dina was interviewed by a couple of people and there were pictures of her out and about. Quit giving interviews and go get healthy. Quit giving interviews. Until you have some answers. Once you share them with people, then they that will help them through their tough times as well, but otherwise it just seems like this neverending train wreck. You are watching it in slow motion, which is the worst thing. You see it coming. The other story that seems to be big and its a story about rihanna. There are all kinds of pictures that rihanna is back with chris brown, and shes going to court with him. This is where he he is in court recently for not showing up and allegedly doing what he was required to do by court order, which was his community service, picking up trash in different places, and theyre saying they have all kinds of evidence that he wasnt where he was supposed to be at the time he was supposed to be doing the community service. Everybody talks about this article, hoda, about why some women could continue to go back to the bad boy, but, you know, there are bad girls by nature too. I dont mean theyre bad like god doesnt love them kind of bad, but bad behavior. I think rihanna has made a choice, and it angers people that you go back to the guy thats hit you and theyve seen the pictures. She says shes making her own choice and she doesnt care what anyone thinks. Its her decision. If its her decision its my mistake. Heres her quote. I decided it was more important for me to be happy. I wasnt going to let anybodys opinion get in the way of that, even if it is a mistake, its my mistake. Theyre all going to be saying that at the grammys. It wasnt my fault i didnt realize that my left what was showing. Yeah, yeah. If its a mistake its my mistake. Now, do they all sing live at the grammys . Oh, yeah. Oh, boy. Remember the milli vanilli thing . That was big. Especially now in light of all thats happening. Im excited that were out there when the grammys are going to be there. Are you going to the party . The Clive Davis Party. Were invited to the Clive Davis Party which is so much fun. Were doing three shows saturday and two on sunday, and weir were in santa monica. I was just reading in usa today and it said the toughest ticket to get is the Clive Davis Party. Maybe well go. Then im going. So this go daddy thing that weve been showing you with the slurping and licking. Cant do that at the grammys. No, no. No kiss and no slurping. No tonguing. Its taken on again, you remember the go daddy one. Its taken on a whole other dimension. Oh, are we going to watch the anyway oh. Cant hear it. It is a little slurpy. Like going to 7eleven. Now leno had some fun with it. Lets watch this. Hey, bar, that go daddy super bowl commercial you did was great. Its one of my favorites. Thanks, jay. Thats so sweet. Im thinking, any chance we could recreate the ad . Sure. Pucker up. Oh. Oh, oh, oh. I thought he wasnt going to open his mouth, but he did. Ah.

Oh, my gosh. Look how high he has to throw that. Wow. And then he came to the studio, and usually those things work those things can be edited. Yes. We dont believe everything we see. Were cynical because were in news. This kid came here, and he was hitting the shots. Remember i told you, hoda, that when tiger woods was a little teeny tike, he came on the show with me and regis, and we had a putting green set up. Every single one of them. Youre kidding. How old was he . I think he had to be 5 years old or something. Thats amazing. I dont remember exactly. You think, oh, its just goes on to be tiger woods. Are you ready to take us to california . This is a song thats going to launch us on our plane ride. Youre going to love this one. It will put you in the mood for california. We want everybody to be california dreaming.

Not a great one, but really its a song. All right. Okay or not okay . The question is is it okay to lipsynch . Heres what we have to say about that. Some organizations insist on it for technical reasons like the anthem at the super bowl, and you actually have no choice if you want to do it, you have to lipsynch it. Not okay. I would rather have it live, maybe imperfect but real as opposed to lip synced and flawless. You would say no to the nfl if they wouldnt let you do it the way you wanted to do it . You would say, no, i will not. I have my integrity. Yes. You wouldnt sing for nothing . Exactly. This is a really cool lady. An 81yearold woman. Elizabeth larry lair.

Everyone has a moment that changes their life today we meet our newest everyone has a story contest winner. Vicky wrote in to tell us about the nonprofit she started, which was inspired by her son who was in the military serving overseas. Were going to meet vickie in a moment. But first lets listen to her story. I never thought i would be a marine mom. I thank goodness that there are brave young men and women that are fighting for our country. I didnt think it would be mine. But you cant change your story, so i supported my sons decision to enlist. On a previous deployment he had asked me to send some gifts to his girlfriend, so when he was deployed to iraq, i thought it would be good to try and do the same for his squad of 12. 12 gifts for the 12 days of christmas. As i shared with others what i was doing, they got excited and said they would sponsor someone. As a marine mom, i didnt know another military mom until i started full circle home. Now lisa miller, an army mom, and i spend most of our time playing santa at christmas or sending mothers day gifts in may. Weve wrapped gifts with the first and second ladies of the united states. Today weve sent out 6,500 of these boxes. We know that if we dont do it, it wont happen. We know how sleep e satellite and radar you because your son just might get to a computer to skype with you, or if the connection is broken, how you just hold your breath. No news is not good news, and almost home is still in danger. There were so many reasons that i couldnt do this, but i only needed one good reason why i could. That was those who serve our country and all that theyre willing to give up. Oh. Now you know why we picked this story. Its a beautiful letter. Vicky is here with her son, gill. Were so grateful youre home safe and sound, and her friend and Business Partner<\/a> lisa. Its just a beautiful story. We wanted to do it now to tell your story so people who want to get involved for mothers day coming up because you can imagine the loneliness of these of our Service People<\/a> over there. You cant even imagine what it must have felt like when your son first said to you im enlisting. What did that feel like back then . Well, i wanted to hear his reasons, and we talked to the recruiter, and then we tried to talk him out of it. When he said im going anyway . I said all right. Were all in. What was the main reason that you gave your mom . I have been asked that question quite a bit, and theres really no one answer. Its patriotism, something that i really felt that i needed to do, and its just i would have regretted it if i didnt do it. You did three tours . Yes. Lisa, you said you always knew your son was going to enlist. I think i knew from a very young age and tried like vicky to change his mind, send him to college. That didnt work really well. Yeah. Then there was no stopping him, and we were proud for it. Once you started this wonderful organization, did you ever in your wildest dreams think it would be how many . 6,500 now . Thats amazing. Its a lot of wrapping. Are you do you need the support Financial Support<\/a> . How can people help . Well, we work out of rochester, and, yet, very few relatively few number of boxes stay in rochester, so theyre across were across the country, and so we do need Financial Support<\/a>. We absolutely do. Whether its 5 or gill, your girlfriend when she first got the box, she must have been thrilled, but theres even more to be thrilled about in that department, isnt there . Yes. Shes now my wife. Oh, stop. Were married. Your son, too . Oh, my gosh. Well, imagine after everybody sees this segment. Coming up, we have a special performance by a broadway star.

Home is a word that conjures up emotions, images of comfort and feelings of devote but home sometimes is very far away and you wonder at times if youll ever see the day when someone you love comes home to stay dont you pray i never dreamed that my little boy would grow up and go off to war i tried to stop him cried many a tear but he told me his country was worth dying for and i never dreamed my days would be spent waiting for the phone to ring and then if it did, i just hold my breath out of fear that the bad news that phone call could bring and so i pray, god, hes almost home, but almost home is not good enough god, he is almost here but he is still not close enough god, i know he is doing what he feels he has to do so god if i cant have him home, please keep him close to you now i never dreamed that i would spend my days helping to make dreams come true but i do it for him and the others like him who sacrifice so much for me and for you and still i pray god, he is almost home but almost home is not good enough god, he is almost here but he is still not close enough god, i know he is doing what he feels he has to do but, god, if i cant have him home, please keep him close to you and heaven forbid someday i get the news that he is not coming home, dear god, give me the strength to say you take him to your home where someday ill be with him but until then im almost home [ applause ] thats gorgeous.

[ female announcer ] going to sleep may be easy, but when you wake up in the middle of the night it can be frustrating. Its hard to turn off and go back to sleep. Intermezzo is the first and only prescription sleep aid approved for use as needed in the middle of the night when you cant get back to sleep. Its an effective sleep medicine you dont take before bedtime. Take it in bed only when you need it and have at least four hours left for sleep. Do not take intermezzo if you have had an allergic reaction to drugs containing zolpidem, such as ambien. Allergic reactions such as shortness of breath or swelling of your tongue or throat may occur and may be fatal. Intermezzo should not be taken if you have taken another sleep medicine at bedtime or in the middle of the night or drank alcohol that day. Do not drive or operate machinery until at least 4 hours after taking intermezzo and youre fully awake. Driving, eating, or engaging in other activities while not fully awake without remembering the event the next day have been reported. Abnormal behaviors may include aggressiveness, agitation, hallucinations, or confusion. Alcohol or taking other medicines that make you sleepy may increase these risks. In depressed patients, worsening of depression, including risk of suicide, may occur. Intermezzo, like most sleep medicines, has some risk of dependency. Common side effects are headache, nausea, and fatigue. So if you suffer from middleofthenight insomnia, ask your doctor about intermezzo and return to sleep again.

Also with us David Friedman<\/a>, composer. Good job, buddy. And our friend david wilde, who is taking hollywood by storm. What do you think of your song . We were all sitting here crying.
