He was obviously intimidated by Ann C. Let's just call it what is is. She was/is better than him and his male ego couldn't take it.......that's all.
Exactly.
Gail Thayer it would be awesome if they brought A Curry back! Kind of a knife to Lauer
Matt is a dick, but Ann curry was unwatchable.
Met3lAngel I’m sure you’re right. Such a shame
milky licker I'd take Ann Curry and her silky smooth voice over nasally Savannah Guthrie any day. By your logic, the Today's show's ratings should have skyrocketed after Ann was cruelly and unceremoniously fired but they haven't, they've been tanking for years. Gee, wonder why.
Totally agree with her - he's demeaning, cruel and arrogant AND it shows. Cannot understand all the women crying at N.B.C. at all.
Plus women MUST make their own way, work to get to the top and STOP being flattered to be used as playthings for these 'dicks'.... and, ALL those who do it, leave your marriages/partners and make sure the man does too, before embarking on affairs. You're hurting your own and, well, karma's a bitch, so they say.
CECI CEO He might be a dick. But, her story does not add up. She said she was a little girl. Matt started on the Today Show 20 years ago. She's 45 which would make her 25.
christopher rembert HaHaHa..... I thought the exact same thing, Jenny says this kind of stuff all the time.
* must add my own type of disclaimer...... I can't stand Matt, I've never enjoyed The Today show. Just agreeing with Christopher.
CECI CEO Yes!! Great comment. Thank you. ❤
For those who say she says this for attention is the Reason why women don't always come out!!
Good job Jenny, you're speaking for many women!!
Autie Cook Exactly!
Autie Cook coming from a porn star...REALLY??
Some of you bitches, Jenny knew, there is a video Matt acting pervy to Katie while he was married and still is. Stop squirting over Matt because you think he's cute. He is a perv and was caught.
Joan of Arc what the hell is wrong with you?Who cares if she is/ was a porn actress. It’s a job.
Don’t lump Matt with Hefner. Hugh Hefner was reportedly a gentleman who never demeaned women. I doubt he ever had to lock a woman in his office to rape her.
Joan, your jealousy of successful women is so very obvious it's almost painful to see. I'd stop before you embarrass yourself even further.
I wish she would give examples of how he was demeaning and disrespectful to her.
Okay. I see your point.
Lisa D. 9
Pamela Crews...what does 9 mean?
She doesn’t want to misquote him and risk getting sued for running her mouth
Totally agree with Jenny regarding Matt Lauer! Never forget Ann Curry.
Never liked him. Stop watching since he was on the show. Good 4 u Jenny
I'm confused. He's only been on theToday show 20years. You're 45. How were you watching him with your mom when you were 'young'?
(Not taking up for him; the math is just not adding up)
Kim Winston I was just about to say the same thing. She was in her early twenties when he started anchoring on the Today Show. However he still a jerk.
No one likes getting old lol including me
She’s always trying to make herself seem younger look at her when talking to Christina Applegate
Where there is 1 Psyop there are many more endless Psyops!
He started out as the Today news anchor in 1994 before becoming co-host in 1997.
Matt Lauer treated Jenny like crap because of her background--porn. I loved Matt when he first started with the Today show. But he changed over time and I came to despise that person he bacame. I love Jenny. She changed as well over time, for the better. And she's now married to one of the greatest guys in the world. I don't care if she never does anything beyond what she is right now. I embrace who she's become and pray for her and Donnie Wahlberg's future together.
The prostitution trade in the United States is estimated to generate $14 billion a year. A 2012 report by Fondation Scelles indicated that there were an estimated 1 million prostitutes in the U.S.
I don’t understand why people would comment on her timing of speaking of this. Why would she just put out there that someone is an asshole or she doesn’t like someone. What would be the point? Just to create drama?
She’s speaking on it publicly now because 1. Its a current topic. 2. It’s giving credit to the people who came forward.
She’s not getting large attention for saying it.
Catie Kilts it’s disgusting shes lying about her age at a time like this
what a moron, she IS getting attention for it, what a deucebag you are catie
Why does McCarthy have a platform to speak?? That is the real question here.
Haven't seen any tears shed for him since he got canned. Not even that day....
I am from a little podunk town in Georgia, certainly nowhere near the Hollywood/New York entertainment scene and yet, I knew that he was a dick. My internal “spidey sense” told me that something wasn’t quite right with him - (shifty eyes, my grandmother used to say) always tell the truth. One could just watch his body language, his interaction with others - both male and female, and by the things he used to say, really more by how he said them. Overtime, he became more arrogant, more condescending, and frankly more in love with himself. His narcissism fueled him into believing that he could get away with just about anything including bad behavior with women. Hopefully, this has been a humbling experience from which he will not soon recover. Sometimes lessons need to take a long time to learn in order for them to “sink in” properly. Karma is a bitch, especially if you are one!
SWT I totally agree. You reap what you sow
SWT being from a podunk town in Georgia I'm curious...did you vote for trump or against trump??
CocoChanelContessa the same can be said of men who can get that feeling of leariness from women as well.
Bryan Hopkins - NOT a Trump fan!!!
I would agree. Bad behavior is certainly not limited to males.
It's such a shame to see people like Matt just completely waste their lives all because of bad behavior!!! Yuck!!
How was Jenny a little girl growing up watching Matt if he joined the Today show in 1997 making her 25?
CALife right, I'm thinking the same thing. 🤔
LITTLE GIRL? Matt Lauer started on the Today Show 20 years ago; Which would make Jenny 25 back then.
Where there is 1 Psyop there are many endless more Psyops!
She is not THAT much younger than him...not making sense...
Jay Tee actually, he was born in 1957, and she was born the year 1972. This is a 15 yr difference
Kevin William that would make her 45 yrs old. Matt started on Today in '97 I think. She would have been 25 yrs old when he started the show. So how was she a little girl. Unless she & her mom watched him on another show in the late '70's or early '80's
If she were a girl growing up in NY age maybe 10-15 when Matt was on a local NY station it would have been plausible. But she grew up in Chicago. I don't know why she made it up but she did. Maybe he saw thru her and chastised her for it which in her mind made him a dick.
i thank u for ur truth. he will never trully understand the damage he did
NEVER be sorry for anything Ann Coulter goes through. : )
Story does not add up. LITTLE GIRL. Jenny McCarthy is 45; Matt Lauer started on the Today Show 20 years ago. Which would make Jenny in her mid 20s.
She watched Matt Lauer when she was a little girl??? There’s a 14 year age difference. Was show is she talking about?
It was funny in a off way. Definitely not a haha way watching his progress. When Lauer took over after Bryant Gummble after he left. Lauer seemed like a breezy funny and cute addition to the show. Bryant was kind of stiff and formal and old. Lauer was funny but serious when needed. He seemed to revitalize the whole Today show. So for those first five years he kept it fun. And he had GREAT HAIR. Then the next 5 he seemed to get a bit of a big head. And each day his head grew his hair got thinner. But yet he still seemed to have fun but you could see his eye brows crease when he didn't like something. Then from year 10 to 15 his funny light manner fell by the waste side. And he acted like God of Today show. And his hair was almost non existent on the top of his head. The next 5 years he acted like a perv to females and like he was ready for a pissing match with each and every successful man who would appear. I just bet we don't see Lauer as a host on any network ever again or even as a guest ever again. He will appear on shit like TMZ or Access or some other gossip show as a topic of has been big shots or part of PERV GATE 2017 where are they now. Lol
Jenny McCartney doesn't realize what actually happened during her first interview meeting with Lauer.
Lauer knew who he was going to interview and he was excited over Jenny. She was beautiful, blonde and frankly, sassy. Lauer is a serious serial sexual predator and no doubt, he "fantasized" about her long before she arrived. The Snub is so he could HIDE his fantasy from her. He had a plan in mind and he most likely wanted to get her to feel comfortable when he was to come up with a reason to go to his office. He wasn't being an asshole for no reason. It was his disguise to make her comfortable to go to his office. Problem Arrived...... She destroyed him when she innocently talked about her crush and shared a bit of her personal memory of her Mom. She got personal and Lauer sensed her human side. She put a face on herself and predators don't like that. Lauer is also a narcissist. She innocently stroked his ego so he pulled back and he thought to himself, "Alright, I'll Let This One Go." Oh but he was very upset letting his fantasy go and yet, his narcissistic personality felt high and mighty for "Having Mercy And He Took Mercy On The Little Lamb."
His asshole attitude was a guise to get her into his office.
Understand this, Predators are NEVER who you see. They use many personality traits to lure victims in. Yes, he is an ass but he is also a predator. And a very dangerous predator. Lauer is very dangerous. Can you imagine how many women, young girls and yes, boys to, Matt Lauer Sexually Attacked outside of work? Imagine walking alone on a beach at night and running into Lauer. He is a dangerous predator, Mark my word. He should be investigated by the FBI because he has many serious victims outside of work. That's how dangerous he is. For some reason, nobody is talking about Lauer anymore and they should be because his neighbors aren't even safe.
you really think people are going to read your novel?..I quit a quarter of the way.. how bout the short version next time..
An ex-playboy bunny talks about "demeaning women". The mind reels.
Don't be a fucking prude.
She watched him when she was a little girl? No, Jenny, you're not that young; you were watching Tom Brokaw and Bryant Gumbel. 🙄
GOOD job Jenny but what I don't understand is every time a woman speaks out about the bad in Hollywood some demos has to bring TRUMPS name up and try to down play what you are going through now!! There is a time and place for that but nooooo they just want a chance to say they hate him which we already know because it's Pete and repeat!! God bless you
I have never watched Matt Lauer since the day Ann Curry was fired. And I will never feel sorry for him...he finally got what he deserved.
His demeanor did change Everly over the years.I really saw an OK guy when he first started and then you could see his temperament change ugly.
I love how honest Jenny McCarthy is, how up-front and straight talking. Much respect to Jenny!
I am from the midwest, and i never wanted to know about hollywood, i always knew it was weird. I worked as a waitress with quite a few waitpeople who were up and coming actors, and i saw how hard it was for them. And they were all talented. But karma just doesnt come to normal everyday regular people, this is why i love my God, and I say this knowing that i have had my crap come to light quite a few times, and thinking, why me, when it should have been why not me, and i see this happen to horrible small men like matt lauer, and i think karma is a bitch, bitch! That is why i love everyday regular men, at least they have a heart! And most truly do love and respect women! But men like matt lauer, who think that they are above everything and everybody because they are somewhat famous, deserve what they get! It all comes to light! This is how I know that God is alive and well, and always will be! I serve an awesome God!
As some people here have already pointed out Jenny McCarthy watching Matt Lauer as a girl with her mother is completely made up. But let's get to this interview she had with Matt Lauer when she was younger. She cannot give us the details of what Matt Lauer said because what Matt Lauer said was probably spot on. He probably said something like this." I am looking at all of your interviews and magazine articles when you were in playboy and your claims and expectations of what you think you were going to do in the business are really funny. You told the interviewers from entertainment tonight , people magazine etc.that you have the comic ability of Lucille Ball? And that you were going to be the Lucille Ball for our age a woman who is beautiful and super talented in comedy? Do you understand sweetheart that when men laugh at all of your jokes it is because they want to sleep with you? Have you figured that out yet? I have been watching all of your videotaped interviews going back a few years and including recent ones and you try really really really really hard to be funny don't you. People who are genuinely funny and talented don't have to try that hard. When you try you just come off as super annoying to be honest." All anybody has to do is take the time to look at her interviews while still a playboy playmate and immediately after as she set out to conquer show business and you can read her make these proclamations about herself.
I love you Jenny :)
He reaped what he sowed! So glad he no longer can treat people the way he did
Good for you, Jenny McCarthy! Loved this interview. Dicks need to be called out on their behavior. Sorry this happened to you.
I'll never forget the first time I watch that prick,I got the sense that he thinks that he's better than everyone .You don't mess with Karma.
Nicely said Jenny. Such a nice family man. And he kept his millions from about two decades of his excellent behavior. Makes a person SICK!
Good for you Ms. Jenny don't let no one treat you like that.
I also really liked Ann Curry and was disappointed when she left .
I did not know much about Matt Lauer but I know Jenny macarthy got rich off her sexuality.
She watched him as a kid? He started 20 years ago. She was already famous, in her 20s lol
Jenny, does like anyone who demeans or demoralizes women look in the mirror.
Never liked Matt Lauer. In fact I don’t like the way he treated DonaldTrump when he was running for Office and when he won the Presidency Matt Lauer still disrespect Donald J Trump President of The United States. You should remain neutral when it comes to the president even if he is not the one you wanted to win. Show Respect when you hold a position like Matt Lauer. I always knew there was something about him, And Now I Know! His grieving family so sorry to see! But Matt Lauer you have everything coming at you! What goes around comes around, And Matt you had the public’s eyes and ears for over twenty years, well I hope your getting what comes around.
Just heard this post and wonders when it was posted. From the comments, it appears that it was posted a few weeks ago.
Jennys bcast language calling Matt L the D word do not meet North American broadcast standards. Jenny is similar to Amy on Jim Dorey show thats not the way RT a reputable media trained Amy for bcasting. Also Howard Stern and all in his bcast booth pollute the airwaves with profane words. My training in bcasting taught me to display good bcast conduct for Radio and TV.
I too stopped watching The Today Show when Lauer was hired. He just oozed a condescending, supercilious, "I'm so cool, ain't I God's gift to the world" nature. He wasn't able or didn't even try to mask it on camera. I've lived my life with the credo not to wish anyone bad but he's the first one I've made an exception for. Everyone ascends the career ladder knowing that they're going to pass the same ones on the way back down and to therefore be truly humble. I guess he thought that all dick is good dick. I hope that the only job he can land is with Al Jazeira. At least they would tolerate his behavior.
A little girl watching matt lauer on today? I'm much younger than u and I was little when's started part time on today. And your story has no real fact, you can't even remember what he said? Just trying to be relevant.
ameliav07 exactly, there’s no way she was a ‘little girl’ watching him on tv. What is she, ten years younger?
Good job Jenny, I am glad you didn't sell out!!
Why would they ask her to co-host on Today ?
U hit the nail on the head with this! I never liked the guy!
This is great, very honest. Good for her saying no.
Does she mean she grew up watching Matt Lauer on Today Show, or just him on the other shows before Today?
I wonder this because she was in her late 20s by the time ML joined the Today Show.
Thank you! That part doesn’t make any sense she was 25 in 1997 that’s the year he joined the today show how did she grow up watching him as a little girl
Dani Just before Today show, Matt anchored with Sue Simmons on 6 o'clock news every night for New York City.
Hi Lori I finally looked her up on wikipedia - she was born and raised in Illinois then she moved to LA after high school. It's unlikely she grew up watching WNBC New York with her mother.
This part had me baffled. I remember her on MTV’s Singled Out in the 90’s. I was very dumbfounded when she said she was a little girl watching Matt Lauer. Impossible.
Funny how she has alot to say now...but when she was on the view..she was boring and didnt say anything..
I stopped watching because of Matt's arrogance. I did watch for Ann, Merrideth and Katie but NOT for Meghan Kelly!
Holy crap! Jenny McCarthy has a radio show???
Well done Jenny. Finally, someone had the guts to say, ... what we all we're thinking.
She was 28yrs old when he started hosting Today Show. Eye roll.....its all about you girl
Jenny McCarthy is an underrated comedic actress!
I am that midwestern mom that does not know anything about show business and I could tell he was the reason- I felt bad for Ann too, Something about him was very off putting, it has been for a long time, I actually quit watching the show years ago because of it
I never liked him and didn’t watch the Today show because of him. He always looked too smug. Now I’m watching Today again
That's exactly the word I have been searching for that describes what I have been picking up from him the few times I have had to watch him ....SMUG
She has always been a class act. NOT.
Lauer is no class act, either. FAR FROM IT.
He is just a human being!
Idk however he relentlessly drilled the Olympic swimmers with passionate conviction.
Renny Zero LMAO!!! You’re right!
Jenny you were 25 when Matt Lauer joined the Today Show but you grew up watching him? Ok. (Sheeple, she was born in 72- do the math). Women like you hurt the #metoo movement by lying to inject yourself in the conversation.
Ann Curry is GREAT , ANYWHERE !
Interesting. Glad to hear that she didn't re-interview with him, spotted what he was.
So I'm listening and thinking I am sure this was probably a really uncomfortable experience. But curious you have been famous for quite a while. One why did you wait until now to share this and two how could you not speak up for Anne. You took on the Medical establishment no small feet which when that happened would have been an open door to say you know this is not right and why.
Jenny excellent move that was great that you didn't want no part of some people have good insight
she's right !
I'm not sure if I'm buying this.
She is lying ...her timeline isnt matching up
She?
It’s not Matt it’s the management that created him!
See, here is proof, women do have the option to say no, especially if they have self respect.
Good for you
I used to love that show and watched it every morning until I had to leave for work. Then when HE forced Ann Curry out, I quit watching the show. NEVER watched it again. I cheered sooooo loud when I heard he got fired. He just comes across as such an arrogant @$$hole, IMO. Now justice would be giving Ann his job and firing all the people on the Today show that knew what a jerk Matt is and kept him because he was a money maker. He may have been, but look how many people he walked and s**t on to make them that money. He needs to go to prison and become the B***H of some dude named Bubba!! If his wife doesn't divorce him then she's just plain stupid.
Yeah. It's risky to make heroes out of people.
I wonder if he was insulted that she said her mom had a crush on him. he has always seemed icky to me. all of a sudden he was the old man on the show, trying too hard and always making little comments. age shouldn't change a person's professional abilities but he just wasn't right any more. now it all fits.
I remember when Matt Lauer first started.Lower on the table.Im so proud of HODA KOTBE!!!
Good for you , Jenny !
right on for sharing
At the beginning she said she watched him every morning as a little girl because of her mom........What?? He started the Today Show in 1997. She was first in Playboy in 1993. This makes no sense!
Ummmm who was demeaning women??? Ok but let’s look in the mirror missy ! So you and baldy just go away 👋
Because of The Ann Curry firing, I stopped watching NBC. I felt Matt Lauer had something to do with that and that they were a bunch of punks at NBC.
He's 59, ho 45 so a mere 14 year difference!!!!
Leave Matt Alger alone........now everyone is blaming him...why nobody did before.....
wow! I suddenly respect Jenny
Mr Whiskers For lying about watching Matt Lauer as a kid when she was way too old.
I never liked him n when Ann Curry got fired- I had a sense that he was part of that. Glad to see him go!
I'm no longer clicking anything related to Sirius XM and I am dropping my subscription because you hired Steve Bannon. Done.
Today Shows ratings jumped after they get rid of him . I bet there advertisers are pumped.
great talk
Never knew that thanks for the heads up
I’m sorry but what the fuck is Jenny talking about? I’m not saying Matt Lauer isn’t a disgusting human being but her story doesn’t make sense. Matt joined the today show in 1997 she was 25 years old how the hell did she ‘grow up watching him as a little girl’. She already had fame before 1997. He’s only been on the show for 20 years
Good for you Jenny! I never liked him I just couldn't quite put my finger on why, he just put out bad vibes.
Once he heard how much your mother liked him and you, felt the same. way, he was no longer in power to possibly take it further. Most times it would be an In for someone like him. "Oh she likes me, let me make a move...
Every Scorpio is pissed about *something*.. Anne 'the dude' Curry was annoying and Jenny's words are only words, just another unproven rant.. Let's see some hard evidence
Well said Jenny.!!!
I've always appreciated how Well Spoken Jenny is and she just Nailed Matt's biggest problem perfectly. ...he's a DICK.!! lol
I love that Jenny calls herself famous like it's a job or a skill. I guess it is in today's world. lol
What a class act you are Jenny
i will be angry too someone told me the saw me when they were little
who is she?
sarina wow are you way out of the loop
sarina no
She was a model
She had a show on MTV back in the early '90s when I was in college.
some broad jim carrey used to bang
"IF I continue to be FAMOUS..."
