Today, Gayle is looking beautiful in hunter green…and ready to have some FUN! Do I detect a little girlish nerves?  I think her smile is just a little bigger today…don’t you?

• About Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson – Gayle confesses that she changed her dress three times in anticipation for this interview.  While Gayle is smiling a little…it seems that Curtis is smiling just a little bit more.  Talking about “Playground,” his new book that deals with bullying and about a whole new side of 50 Cent that I never knew about him.  “Your reputation is tough guy…do you mind that?” Gayle asks.   “It helps on some levels…” he admits.  And I think that Gayle is flirting a little…about introducing him to Will and Kirby.  I can hear them now, “OH MOM…”  but there’s a little coming back to her too from Curtis…  While Gayle says she’s just playing around,   you KNOW that if 50 Cent was bold enough, he’d just ask her out.  It is LIVE TV after all.  Wait…I think he just DID…but Gayle side stepped it to his charity, Street King and 50’s fight against hunger.  Oh…the playfulness of Curtis and Gayle…too cute.

• About “Mean Girls Grown Up” – Gayle is talking with author, Cheryl Dellasega about her book and this topic.  Talking about bullying and the inner insecurity that fires it, it’s a topic of the day and everyone seems to  have come across one during their lifetime.  I wonder what the world would look like without bullies…probably pretty happy.   Anyway, the topic here is more about mean women…and how there are just subtle differences.  Queen Bees, Middle Bees and Afraid-To Bees.

• About Amber Heard – Life has a plan and Amber’s plan was to be in the next Johnny Depp movie, “The Rum Diary.”  The movie looks amazing and it’s already getting really good reviews.  Being called the “It Girl” now, she’s the one people are watching.  But is it a “now moment” or is she in it for the longevity?  Definitely for the long term, she says.

• About the Dallas Manhunt for a Criminal – Gayle is bringing us a story that I haven’t heard of.  This criminal attacker is targeting women in their 50’s who were in the same sorority back in college.  A large black man in his mid 20’s to 30’s.  Robbie Owens from CBS 11 news in Dallas gives us the update.  Joining in the conversation is Pat Brown, Criminal Profiler. While all associate with the Delta Sorority, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they were in the sorority during college,  Pat tells us.  Apparently, women can join the Alumni association as a professional woman.  All of the victims were attacked in their homes at night.  Just too scary.  Home security system and dogs…start with that ladies.  Wow…just too frightening…
