that i'm going to be there and it will be nice to see you. that's been so lovely, the good -- the really -- >> being with your friends, you know? >> the good will of people. >> my mother and my father were both nominated for oscars in different categories. i just won an oscar. >> you were so kind about your mom and dad. right now -- >> i know i look up and i don't believe in the looking up part, meaning i don't think they're up there, like, watching. i just -- it's the aura of them, that i am them. >> yeah. >> and that they are of me. >> they are very proud of you i'm sure. >> reporter: what a touching moment there with jamie lee curtis. her parents of course, hollywood royalty, tony curtis, janet leigh, both nominated and never did bring home the oscar. now at 64 years young, their daughter has done just that. and we will have so much more coming up in the next hour, including the long awaited

reunion between ke huy quan and steven spielberg who gave him his first break in "indiana jones and the temple of doom" when he was just 12 years old. i was just saying to chris, it was, like, "everything everywhere all at once" happening. it was quite amazing. >> you said we have more coming up, lara. we know you got that for us. we're looking forward to that. we turn now to the new storm that is taking aim at hard-hit california on the heels of catastrophic flooding. rob marciano is in watsonville, california, for us this morning. good morning, rob. >> reporter: hey, good morning, mchael. as you know, much of the west has been hit hard with these storms, but california, this part has been really hit hard. monterey county couldn't handle all this water. the river bursting through its levee and flooding towns like this one here in watsonville. the only way in and out of these neighborhoods is by high water vehicle or by boat.

this as other nearby rivers are still rising. this morning, intense flooding forcing authorities to expand evacuation orders for areas surrounding the salinas river. >> it encompasses a large amount of residential structures, as well as commercial agriculture structures. >> reporter: as this another round of storms batter down on monterey county, officials saying that almost 200 people have been rescued so far. like in this dramatic video, showing a helicopter pulling a man to safety after his car was washed away by water from the salinas river. across the county, rescue workers navigating the flooded streets and submerged cars by boat. on this beach, firefighters attempting to rescue two surfers who became stuck on the side of a cliff. folks who live here, the evacuees, are spread out across four shelters and no telling when they'll be able to come back because another atmospheric river comes in tonight. george? >> boy, that is some scene. rob, thanks very much.

coming up, former president donald trump's hush money to stormy daniels. will donald trump appear before a grand jury? his lawyer will join us on "gma" this morning. and the podcaster and her husband killed in their home after she sought protection. we'll tell you what happened. but first, good morning, ginger. good morning. not just that california storm through tomorrow night and wednesday, but we have our very own in the northeast. it's going to wrap up to be quite the nor'easter. big-time wind, you'll notice that first at the coast. mostly rain from new york city to boston until the thing wraps up and drops some snow in boston. most of the heavy snow will be away from the coast in the catskills and green and white mountains. your local weather now in 30 seconds.

and her husband who police say were brutally murdered in their home on friday by a truck driver from texas who then turned the gun on himself. >> the victim and suspect became acquainted through a chat room. it's being referred to as a podcast, but it was more of a chat room for individuals who were seeking jobs in tech. >> reporter: but police say that ramin khodakaramrezaei met zohreh sadeghi under false pretenses on the popular streaming forum clubhouse. sadeghi initially befriending the suspect thinking he was looking for a tech job, even meeting him in person, but eventually he became fixated. >> his actions and activity escalated such that the victim became concerned for her safety. numerous times throughout 2022. >> reporter: by december she reported him to police, and earlier this month she applied for a protection order. the order detailing a pattern of disturbing behavior including calling sadeghi 100 times in a

single day, crying and begging to speak to her, showing up unannounced at a convention she attended in colorado. even threatening to burn himself and the tree in front of sadeghi's house. the software developer calling the alleged stalker delusional writing, he won't let me go, and the only thing that will make all of this stop is if he killed himself or died. sadeghi's death shocking her former colleagues. >> she was a very kind-hearted individual. i can't imagine anyone wanting to do any harm to her at all. it just -- it's shocking. >> reporter: now authorities also believe that the suspect was actually at the victim's home the night before the murders as well. they also say the victim's mother was there. she escaped and, george, she is the one who called 911. >> okay, kayna, thanks. we're going to get the latest now on former president trump. he's been invited to testify to a new york grand jury investigating the hush money payment to porn star stormy daniels. facing a possible indictment now

as trump's former attorney michael cohen is set to testify before the grand jury today. trump's attorney joe tacopina joins us now. joe, thanks for coming in. >> thank you, george. >> is it president going to testify? >> we have no plans to participate in that proceeding. it's a decision that still needs to be made. there's been no deadline, so we'll wait and see. >> you have met -- you and other attorneys have met with the prosecutors? >> the terrific lawyer is leading the charge in this case, and she's met with the prosecutors. >> you expect an indictment? >> i expect justice to prevail, and if that's the case, george, there shouldn't be an indictment. this case is outrageous really. there should be a healthy dose of disgust from the bar, the legal community, prosecutors, defense lawyers alike. it's not what we do. this is not what we do. we are distorting laws to try and bag president trump. i don't know if it's because he's leading in all the polls. i don't know what it is, but clearly this prosecutor and this prosecutor's office has made an agenda of trying to get him.

they have scoured his personal life and business life for seven years to try to find something. >> this case is pretty well-known, though. there are simple yes or no questions at the heart of the case. i'll put them up on the board right there. number one, did trump authorize the payment to stormy daniels? number two, was the payment properly recorded? number three, was it connected to the election? let's take all three in turn. number one. >> we have to start and end with number three. >> let's answer number one first. >> it's not directly related. >> did trump authorize the payment? >> it's not directly related. >> did trump authorize the payment? >> it's not directly related. it's regardless -- >> we'll get to that. >> let's assume he did. >> he's admitted he did. so the answer to that is yes. >> let's assume he did. this was a plain extortion, and i don't know since when we decided to start prosecuting extortion victims. he's vehemently denied this affair, but he had to pay money because there was going to be an allegation that was going to be publicly embarrass him regardless of the campaign.

the campaign finance laws are very clear. you cannot have something that's even primarily related to the campaign to be considered finance law. >> he did direct the payment be made. number two, the second important question is, was it properly noted in the trump organization records or was there a false record made saying this was legal representation? >> there was absolutely no false record made. to my knowledge there was no false records made. >> to your knowledge. so you're not sure. >> i wasn't there at the time, but my understanding of these facts is clearly there was no false record made. >> you would acknowledge if there was a false record made, that's a crime, a misdemeanor. correct? >> i wouldn't acknowledge that was made -- >> if it were made, it's a crime. it's a misdemeanor. >> it depends in what context. i could record something in my personal checkbook that says i bought something for personal use or whatever. as long as there's no tax ramifications or campaign ramifications, it's not a crime. whatever i do in a personal setting is different. there has to be a nexus here to the campaign finance and the campaign finance laws are very clear, george. very, very clear. any legal scholar, including

former members of the federal election committee have said there is no crime here. there is absolutely no crime, and we should not be going down a road -- >> michael cohen went to jail for this crime. >> michael cohen went to jail because he was a liar, convicted perjurer. on a lot of things. he pled guilty to something that wasn't a crime. many legal scholars have opined. there is no nexus to any payment -- extortion payment to being -- >> that gets to the final third question which is the most important one as you identify was this connected to the election, and the payment was made just days before the election. i assume that in addition to the testimony from michael cohen, you're going to have testimony from others suggesting that, in fact, it was connected to the election. the president was making this payment so this wouldn't come out before the ele >> so there's a crucial ctn. distinction here, george.

there really is. separating campaign funds from personal funds. this was made with personal funds. had this been made -- >> that would be a contribution to his campaign. >> by his personal funds, it's been made. it's not a contribution to his campaign. he made this with personal funds to prevent something coming out false, but embarrassing to himself, his family, his young son. that's not a campaign finance violation, not by any stretch. so personal funds and personal use of funds, spending to fulfill a commitment and expense of a person that would be existing irrese ivctha tof campaign is not a olation. >> one thing i think we can agree on is is this connection to the campaign will be one of the key questions in this case. >> sure will be. >> thanks for coming in. we'll be right back. of the key questions in this case. >> sure will be. >> thanks for coming in. we'll be rack. b

writing, capital and liquidity positions are very strong. the government's emergency action including a lifeline for signature and silicon valley bank customers after a frantic weekend. these emergency measures are meant to protect the system from any kind of spillover effect and to reassure americans that no matter where they bank, large or small, even if that bank goes out of business, their deposits are protected. george? >> rebecca jarvis, thanks. let's get the weather now. powerful storm heading east and major flooding in the west. ginger? >> george, what a weekend it's been. 5 to 10 inches in a large area across california. this is outside of oakland where they were trying to see if anybody was inside that car. this is in kern county where the levee broke and the neighborhood flooded. unfortunately we've got more where that came from. it all starts tonight, but the

heaviest 5:30 a.m. in the bay area, and down through the afternoon and early evening for los angeles and santa barbara. you could add up another 3 to 6 inches of rain on top of what you just had. i anticipate mudslides, we could see more river flooding, levees break, and that's not it. we've got a winter storm of our own here in the east. it looks like a nor'easter. it's going to start up tonight, and new york city it was mostly rain there, and then it transitions to snow for boston. a couple of inches. it's not even about the snow. wind is what you will notice the most, george. >> thanks. now to the travel warning for mexico after three women went missing on a shopping trip from texas. matt rivers is there. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning. the safety of americans very much in the news here. after the kidnapping of those four americans just a week ago, and now another case in the spotlight, three women, all mexican citizens, but living in texas are now missing. they traveled to mexico back on february 24th to go to a flea market about three hours south of the border, and they have not been heard from since.

authorities continued to search for them as more than 100,000 mexicans remain missing countrywide. these cases have put a spotlight on just how dangerous mexico can sometimes be with the texas department of safety publicly urging all texans to not travel to mexico for spring break citing the violence we are seeing there, but some context. while some parts of mexico are incredibly dangerous, many popular tourist destinations are not. the state department rates popular spots like cancun or cabo, or even mexico city, a risk level 2 out of 4, and that's the same as the uk, germany, and italy. coming up, we have more of lara's backstage interviews with the winners. also this morning, before we run and change for our after party, we have a panel of experts, fashion experts and our lori bergamotto will break down

>> first of all, i have to call out lady gaga because she set that fashion bar for herself so high anyways, but when you decide to go to the academy awards less than 48 hours before it's supposed to happen, she says, what do you do? all hands on deck. donatella just had a show in los angeles. she said, i want that dress on gigi hadid, and she got it. four people from versace went down to her room and she decided saturday night that she was going to wear this. saturday night. all the seamstresses were there. they didn't make a single alteration. it fit her like a glove. a little butt cleavage. >> you said butt cleavage? jeannie, what did you think? what was your favorite look? >> i have a tie. the first is the one and only nobel peace prize winner malala. i was blown away by this cultural embracing of modern fashion in ralph lauren.

it was just os beautiful and draped and perfection, and it was something i wish i kind of owned and my second was miss emily blunt leading the way with minimalism. it is so hard to look effortless. a lot of people -- this look looks like it just took a few minutes because it just looks so effortless. it doesn't look like a lot of time was put into it, but from her coif, and the applique, and everything about it is perfection. if you are going to do white, do it right. >> we saw white a lot. >> if it was a red carpet, it would have really popped, but we had the champagne carpet, aka, the beige carpet. michelle yeoh looked gorgeous in this dior gown and she looks like an angel. she's floating on air, and it's the feathers and effervescence of it all. i just really thought she looked like a winner, and this picture will live on for life, and it does her justice. she's the epitome of it gets

greater later too. next up, we have ariana debose. so she wanted to pay homage to old hollywood glamour, but in a modern way, and she did that with this versace gown. the bottom is art deco, but the bottom is versace, darling. it's sexy and giving you all the drama you love. >> we saw a lot of split. >> the old hollywood glamour girl didn't exactly show that much thigh, right? oh, and then mindy kaling. she's loving the skin that she is in, and she's showing it. for the first time ever, and i love, love, love this. it's a real departure for her, and it's a real departure for the designer of vera wang. we've never seen a vera wang gown like this, the corset of the outside. >> we've never seen her like this. >> i love them stepping up. >> wang can be really bridal, but what mindy and ariana did was va va voom. >> and the men were there, too.

what do you think about the men and their textured tuxedos? >> the fact i married a man in a beautiful champagne blush tux tells me that he knew the fashion forecast. the men really led the way with color. being at so many oscars, it's great when men play it safe in black, joe. i like it, but it's so much fun when they go to the explosion of color. you are the classic black tux, but when men can play a little bit, not just in color, but texture and sequins, it says so much more. >> what i love about this is that men's wear has really changed for everybody. it's not just relegated to the timothee chalamets of the world. i can have some fun and texture. >> thnk y'all so much. let's go to ginger. >> thank you so much, robin. d.j. irie and i just trying to get this party started over here. yall ready to do that? >> yes. >> don't wear a long dress to
