While everyone was focusing on Kathie Lee Gifford leaving Today, her co-anchor Hoda Kotb was keeping her own little secret. She and Joel were expecting their second child.
This morning on Today, Savannah Guthrie revealed that she had some big news to share with everyone. Then she took a phone call from Kotb who announced that she welcomed a girl named Hope Catherine. She did not say when the baby was born but she did say that 2-year-old Haley Joy is enjoying being a big sister.
With that happy news everyone was crying and so are we. Congrats to the mother of two!
BTW Does she have a Kris Kardashian thing going on where she is going to give all of her daughters a first name that starts with an H?

Yesterday on The Tonight Show, they had Stephanie J. Block, Teal Wicks and Micaela Diamond, the three Chers in the Broadway musical, sing her everlasting hit If I Could Turn Back Time. Are they as good as her? As soon as she comes out and joins them you have your answer.
But then again as Cher told Jimmy Fallon during the NBC talk show, “I have never heard anybody do a really good one [impression].” Then she explained why, “They go make some noises and facial expressions, and I try to find myself in there and it’s just so much 🐂💩.”
That is why there is one and only Cher. There may be people that come close, but no one else can ever be her. It is all about her attitude and you cannot replicate that. The vocals, yes. The look, yes. The tude, nope.
Finally, Fallon thought it would be interesting for her to lipsync to Karaoke singers singing her hit Believe. To see her priceless reaction to doing it, then click here!
Emma Bunton was on This Morning today to talk about her new album My Happy Place. However, you cannot have Baby Spice on and not talk about the Spice Girls upcoming reunion tour. That is all we really really want to know.
Bunton told the hosts that she recorded a duet with Robbie Williams called Two Becomes One. At that point, John Barrowman wanted to know if it is true that Williams had relations with 4 out of the 5 Spice Girls. Without hesitation, she said that was a lie and told him to stop staying it with a chuckle. Williams told her it was a joke that when too far and he even had to apologize to his wife for saying it. Someone was in the dog house for a while
Talking about jokes that went too far, is it true that Mel B was not at rehearsal with the other 3 remaining Spice Girls yesterday? Bunton confirmed that she was not there. Is it because she claimed that she had a one night stand with Ginger Spice and that is causing tension between them? Nope, sorry to burst that tantalizing bubble. Scary Spice did rehearse with them, she is just doing it in LA and not London. She will be flying across the pond in a few weeks to join her bandmates.
As we know there is one bandmate missing from the reunion, how will they handle being Poshless? Bunton says they are all swapping out her lines. They don’t know who will sing what just yet, they are waiting to find out in rehearsal how it feels naturally.
One last thing, they will be playing the oldie but goodies, so the fans will not be disappointed.

Weezer recently released the Teal album which only has covers on it. One of the songs they chose to sing is Tears For Fears’ Everybody Wants to Rule the World. Yesterday when Rivers Cuomo and the band were asked to do Jimmy Kimmel Live they asked Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal to join them. Since the duo just wowed at Coachella.
Both bands started the 1985 tune out together, then the lead singers alternated verses and finally, they all concluded the song as one. Personally, I think they need to release that version of the single too. Smith and Cuomo’s voices are so beautiful together. Doesn’t make you think they can rule the World together.
Most people around the World know François-Henri Pinault as Salma Hayek’s husband, but today we know the billionaire as the man who pledged €100 million to rebuild the Notre-Dame Cathedral. He is not the only French billionaire to do so. France’s richest man Bernard Arnault, the founder of the LVMH Group, doubled that offer according to CBS News.
This is what billionaires should do because they cannot take it with them.
Notre-Dame de Paris has survived since the first stone was placed in 1150, and it will live on for centuries to come. It has seen a lot of destruction around it throughout the ages, but now all of that sorrow has been burned away and new memories, hopefully, happier ones, will be made around it.
This Easter, no matter what you practice, take a moment and be thankful that the Cathedral survived. It truly is a miracle. A place that brings people together for good lives another day. We need more places to bring us together and not tear us apart because at the end of the day we all are all born, bleed red and die.
