  • NBC confirmed this morning that Katie Couric’s replacement on Today will be Meredith Vieira, as was widely anticipated. On a related note, if you’re depressed at the prospect of never seeing Ms. Couric’s legs again—but what are the chances of that, frankly, she’ll probably demand a see-through newsdesk—you can take comfort in the fact that Ms. Vieira apparently likes to likes to flash her cooter during tapings.

  • In today’s shocking news, Eminem has filed for divorce from his wife, Kim, after just three months of remarriage. Court papers claim that the relationship broke down and “the objects of matrimony have been destroyed.” What does that mean exactly? “Kim, my darling, join hands with me as we destroy the ceremonial anal beads.” HOTT. [BBC]
  • And speaking of, Paris Hilton is now whining to the press that her former friend Nicole Richie is jealous and fame-hungry. No, Paris honey that’s just your reflection in the mirror. It’s okay, mirrors can be confusing sometimes! [Hollywood.com]

    I have never liked Katie Couric. She irritates the crap out of me. I find myself yelling at the TV when she is on.

    Now I wouldn’t mind seeing Meredith on the evening news.

    Damn! I STILL can’t watch the Today Show. Can’t stand this bitch anymore than I could “Perky” little Katie.

    I bet Meredith is thrilled to be getting away from those idiots on The View. I was kind of pulling for Campbell Brown, but I guess they wanted a bigger “name.”

    “5. She’s usually pantyless on ‘The View.’ According to IMDB, she finds wearing underwear with pantyhose redundant.”

    gross. obviously she didn’t get the grey’s anatomy memo about that….

    I guess Meredith’s mother’s doctor never shocked her into giving her daughter a long list of life lessons.

    Sure is a lot of cooter news lately…Basic It-Stinks II, then the scary Flava Girl, Grey’s Dying Mom Advice #3, and now Viera jumps on the bandwagon!

    This made me laugh out loud:

    “Of Richie’s recent weight loss, Hilton laments, ‘That’s not normal. I can’t believe it. She looks horrible. It’s really sad.’”

    I didn’t know Emma Thompson was going to host the Today Show.

    Definitely should of went with Campbell Brown. She is a total babe with news cred. Any news cred Veieira had she pissed away long ago. Good thing it wasn’t Ann Currie at least. She is pretty easy on the eyes but the world’s worst interviewer. I liked Katie. She could do the fluff but was very good in the serious interviews. I think her looks and pleasant way disarmed guests and they were not prepared for when she started throwing tough questions at them.
