Debbie Schlussel: This is a Network News Anchor?!: Katie's "Hot Like Me" Ringtone, "2-Mommy" Household
A More Magazine interview with CBS News Anchor Katie Couric leaves you wondering:
Vapid teen valley-girl . . . or next female teacher most likely to have sex with her students?
It certainly doesn't make you think: Serious national broadcast news anchor, but it's no change from her previous "Bite Me," America, comment.
Some excerpts, as reprinted in the Detroit Free Press:
More's Amy Wilentz interviewed Couric -- whose cell phone features the ring tone of the Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me." . . .
"They [viewers] seem to think it's like I've had a lobotomy"
Yes, that sounds about right.
* About her nanny and housekeeper, Lori Beth Meyer, whom Couric calls her wife: "We try to discourage all of her relationships! We always joke in the household that the girls have two mommies, that we're a family, but a 'different kind of family.' But seriously, I couldn't be me without Lori Beth. And by the way, she rules with an iron fist."
Hmmm . . . Sounds like there's only one mom in that household. And it ain't the one with the "Don't Cha Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me" ringtone.
* About her 10-year-old daughter, Carrie: "She doesn't like the way I smack my lips. She's always, like, 'Look, Mom, you just did it again.' If she had her way, she'd be happy only if I stopped breathing."
She's not the only one, Katie.
