There's no 'I' in 'team'

They say opposites attract – and it seems as if that cliché holds true even for the "couples" of morning television. Take, for example, the TODAY fourth-hour co-hosts, Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb: Where Kotb is measured and mellow, Gifford is excitable and gleefully uncensored.

The current issue of USA WEEKEND features an interview with the co-anchors, and attempts to suss out the method behind their morning madness. "You have to acknowledge that you can't have two people driving the bus," Kotb offers. "I'm very comfortable with my role on the show."

And what of Gifford's role? "I was hired to be the Energizer Bunny," Gifford says.

Kathie, I think this is a very cute picture of both of you! You both look great! I also would like to know where you got the top you had on on Friday.  The white one, sleeveless, with black stitching on it. I LOVE it.  I also would like you to have your first segment of the show longer. I love to hear you both talk about the current events and page 6! Thanks for a delightful hour!
