myself and forgive myself in the same breath. and you know, being able to apologize to, you know, rihanna and being able to be that man that can be a man. >> so you're together as a couple? >> yeah, everything's good. we're fine. >> a lot of people worried i think about her -- >> yeah. >> -- and the choice that's she was making and they thought this is going to end badly. how do you respond to that? >> well, you know, i think it's just me proving myself once again. and also just me being a man. and knowing that what i did was wrong and never doing it again. >> well i'm so happy to hear him say that. you can never get help until you realize -- until you accept the fact that -- accept responsibility for your actions and not blame it on other people. sounds like that's exactly what he needs to be doing. >> we'll see what happens. i think this is one of those things you're like show me, don't tell me. >> except he says that. he wants to prove it by the man he is. good for him. we wish them all the best. i hope he stays on this path. >> so if you guys were watching the ncaa tournament, there was a moment in the game that was so

horrifying i think for people to see who were watching it. a guy named kevin ware, a sophomore on the louisville basketball team, jumped up to block a shot, fell -- went back down on his leg, and his leg broke. and these are just the reaction shots because the actual accident itself was so horrific. his leg was broken and in fact six inches of bone was sticking out. it was really, really bad. anyway, it was a horrible, horrible scene. and the coach was crying. >> everybody was crying. >> and it was a very, very close game at the time. but what's interesting was kevin was on the stretcher coming, you know coming out and he kept saying, "just win the game. just win the game." he kept repeating -- >> there were six minutes left in the game. >> yeah, six minutes left. anyway, they -- it turned out being a blowout after that. and they ended up -- >> they were inspired. >> yeah. they presented the trophy to kevin in the hospital. >> wow. >> and i think now there's a question about you know, what's going to happen with him and with his career and how severe the injury was. and you know -- >> we wish him all the best. wow.

>> yeah. it was a very, very difficult time. so let's go to some good news, if we can. >> lindsay lohan? >> no, better! the baby giraffe. >> oh, the one that lives in my home town that i was hoping they would name bambina. the baby girl. >> this baby is huge already. >> she's so adorable. >> anyway, they did finally pick a name for this little baby. and they called the baby sandy hope. >> because newtown's close by to greenwich, and this little giraffe represents new birth and hope. so sandy hope. >> how sweet. we watch a little giraffe look, how the rest of them are hanging out. >> she lives right near our old house in that whole area back there. i want to wish my friend eva moore a happy birthday. we went to dinner with her on friday night. and regis and joy -- regis goes to anything you invite him to. you know what i'm saying. he's such good friends with all of us. we just had a great time. you know who was there, paul schaeffer and his wife.

>> i thought they did. so i didn't care. >> ha, ha, ha. google added something called a nose search engine. usually it says news, blogs, et cetera. this one you're supposed to be able to click on it and smell -- >> like it went through the machine. >> through the computer. and they add april fool's to that too. and then youtube did something too. >> how about we show what our sara did. >> i think that's the most important thing. >> let's skip to the video. >> well, hoda mentioned that she doesn't get a joy from the april fool and is it's because it's the pranker that does, not the prankee. >> oh. >> and my first victim was you. >> oh. >> so after you left your dressing room we -- well, a capable crew filled your dressing room to the brim with balloons. >> that was not cool. so when you came back from the morning meeting you were in for quite a surprise. >> lord.

>> are you kidding me? are you kidding me? >> get -- >> you are kidding me. >> you're fine. >> who's getting dressed in here? >> we moved your clothes to another room. >> hey, nice balloons here. >> so clearly -- >> you didn't let go with an expletive, which is what you normally do. >> she held it back. she was very quick on the go. but our next victim was savannah and the classic snake in the potato chip can. she was a little hesitant at first, but then she was rushing actually for a change, and i stopped her in the middle of the hallway. and she said-s there something in this? i'm like, no, silly. and she fell for it and it hit her in the face. she then threw the can at me.

she was less than thrilled and she will never fall for that trick again. >> she will never trust you again. >> buh-bye. >> and next on my list was tamron hall. she was filling in for natalie last week. so there's nothing like a fake cockroach to put a little hop in your step. i hid one on our couch. so let's check out tamron's reaction to this little bad boy, which was sitting under her script, no less. she also looked scared of me when i approached her. and she told me that her attorney would be calling, and i'm still waiting by the phone. >> how about carson didn't even move a muscle. >> he was tweeting. >> carson, by the way, is the sweetest thing. we love him. >> and kathie lee, you were my final target. >> go. >> my weapon was a foul-tasting chocolate chip cookie that i might have put a little too much salt in. i gave some delicious versions to our producers and hoda. and i sold it to kathie.

and i also mentioned that it was my grandmother's recipe. and i knew you'd tell me the truth. >> that is so good. >> she'll be so happy. >> do you like them? >> i love you. >> you don't like it? >> you left out one thing. >> what? >> she didn't put the sugar in it. it's delicious, i'm teasing. >> it's okay. i actually put a lot of salt in there. i'm trying to get into the early april fool's spirit. i knew that you would tell me the truth. >> you put salt in there. >> i put a lot of salt in there. >> see who you can trust always to tell the truth. >> i'm not going to ask hoda if i ever look fad. because she had a bad one too and she went mmmm and handed it to someone else. >> it's called being polite. there's the truth and there's polite, okay? >> well is it time for my favorite things? >> of course. what you got going on?

child is terrifying. i couldn't walk the store, much less run after a 6-year-old. i finally decided to make a change after attending a convention and listening to various motivational speakers. i did research and decided that the weight watchers core plan was a good fit for me. i did that for the majority of my weight loss. i didn't start working out right away. but eventually i started walking and working out in a pool. i grew stronger as time went on. today i teach fitness classes like zumba and i'm a personal trainer. i love being active. in total i've lost 200 pounds and went from a size 32 to a size 6. i have done it without any surgery, magic pills, shakes or voodoo. and that makes it much sweeter to me. >> so great. >> what a great story. >> no voodoo, as she says. >> a new orleans girl, right? >> like so many people, emotional eating was her biggest issue and it wasn't until she
