on public relations. >> reporter: but proponents say the drug is addressing a real problem. low sexual desire with a pill taken every night that targets chemicals in the brain, not another organ. in the latest clinical trial, more than a thousand women diagnosed with low desire took it or a placebo for about six months. the women on the medication reported improvements in sexual desire and twice as many satisfying sexual events as before. side effects included fatigue, nausea, and sleepiness. amanda parrish was part of that trial. the divorced mom of four used to pretend to be asleep to avoid sex. but after two weeks on the pink pill -- >> i'm like my word this drug is working. >> i thought it was terrific. i mean, it was like my girl is back. and she was flirty again. it was like going back to what we had. >> reporter: what did you call it? randy teenager?

it has been submitted for approval twice before but the fda wanted more information. new safety studies found it did not cause liver problems or sleepiness behind the wheel. evidence couples like the parrishs hope will convince the fda and lead to a whole lot more of the ever-present ads but this time aimed at women. for "today," kate snow, nbc news, nashville. >> well, we asked sprout about what the pill might cost. the company said it's too soon to speculate. it is expected to be just the first in a line of pharmaceutical companies ready to bring products like this to the market. all right. in the meantime, an investigation is now underway into the tragic death of an american woman who was mauled by a lion at a south african wildlife park. katy tur has the latest on this. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, matt. investigators are right now trying to figure out why and how the american woman were attacked. authorities are reviewing all of

the evidence which reportedly includes pictures the woman was taking of the lion right before it attacked her. a 22-year-old american woman was killed by a lion at a south african wildlife park on monday after she left her car window down. witnesses say a female lion like this one walked slowly up to the suv while the woman was taking photos of it before it suddenly sprang. biting her through the open window. monday's incident was not the first at the park which promises nowhere can you get closer to a pride of lions and other animals and still be completely safe. just last march an australian man was also attacked through his open car window. the park says it repeatedly warns tourists both verbally and marked signs to lock their doors and keep their windows up. >> witnesses that were there at the time that saw this incident took place, they said both of the windows were wide open.

and it's contrary to all our signage. >> reporter: it's a warning many people often ignore. just look at this clip. kids hanging out of the back of a car trying to get a better shot of a lion only feet away. but even with windows closed the close views can sometimes turn into close calls like this one where a lion opens a car door with its teeth. >> lock the door. >> oh, my gosh. i didn't know they could do that. >> reporter: outtakes like these are a big draw on the internet. lion after lion clawing on windows and chasing down cars as they try to speed away. sadly this time it seemed the people in the car weren't so lucky. the issue according to the guides is that there are so many people taking these tours now that the lions have lost their natural fear of humans and of cars feeling much more confident to attack. matt and savannah, the lion in this incident is now in an isolated pen, but the park

remains open to the public. >> all right. katy tur on this story, thank you very much. now to the magazine cover everybody is talking about this morning. caitlyn jenner, formerly bruce jenner, introducing herself to the world on the cover of "vanity fair." this went viral in seconds. >> it happened fast. on monday caitlyn jenner debuted her name and look and dominated the conversation online. she was a top trend on twitter and facebook. let's head into the orange room. the search into caitlyn jenner was three times higher than people looking at the other kardashian news which is kim expecting baby number two. they also rolled out her social media pages yesterday. instagram has been set up. noteworthy number of followers. she broke 1 million followers in just over four hours. that beat the previous record that the president had just two weeks ago. that didn't last long. as you see 1.92 million followers this morning.

caitlyn jenner's life but huge difference. more open more honest more connected, more -- everything's centered. caitlyn has found her soul that bruce never had. >> you almost get the sense that caitlyn is euphoric to be free. >> and i think that's the case. i just spoke to her yesterday. she said i'm free. i can live. i don't care about the paparazzi anymore. just make sure it's a good shot but more than that it's relating to the children from her first two marriages. it's having a relationship. he never had a relationship. she is going to have bonds. she is going to be free. she's going to have fun. she was completely isolated i think, for the last five or six years of his life as bruce. >> you mentioned the kids. she had four kids from first marriages. you delve deeply into that. one of the most shocking is what you reveal about the

then-father/child relationship bruce had. in many ways he was an absentee father. >> he was. and he admits that as they were intering adolescence, he was gone. he was married to kris jenner and concentrating on the kardashians and forgot about these kids. it was very hard and bruce jenner said something that rings in my mind. he said it's hard to idolize someone who won the olympics. remember bruce jenner won the olympics. he said i wish my father hadn't done that. because i missed him. he wasn't there. but one of the beautiful parts of this is as caitlyn they are trying hard to reconnect. it's not easy but they're trying. >> would the jenner children have gone out of their way to be warm and accepting and supportive of caitlyn and this transition. i did find it interesting they didn't want to be part of this e! reality show she is doing. >> correct. they felt -- look they could

have got money from it could have got exposure from it. they said dad, you have the ability to have a legacy in sports as a sports figure equal to muhammad ali. you can be a trail blazer here in becoming a woman and becoming a transgender woman. don't blow that with spectacle. don't blow that and they said we do not want to participate. they must have been asked a dozen times. >> how does she feel about it? because she's doing it in a public way, which she's a public figure. in some sense she has no choice about that. >> i think that's right. i mean bruce as bruce said at one point what are my options? i can move to alaska. i can live in the hills. i can live on an iceberg somewhere but the paparazzi will find me. they always do. i can do that or i figured out i need to go public. i think the docuseries is going to be a combination of the serious and she's going to have fun. she's going to try to hit a golf ball 300 yards. it's much harder with breasts, let's face it. >> you talk about kris jenner. there's been a dispute between

them about how much kris jenner knew about these gender issues. what did she tell you? >> you know and kris was civil during the interview and was very open. she said i didn't know. i thought it was a man boob situation. i had a solid "b" cup. as a journalist i didn't want to delve closely into that. i didn't know. i had no idea about the gender issues the severity. i think she's right. i think bruce down played it. it was a phase in my life. it's over. it wasn't over. everyone i think kris has accepted whatever happened in the past i can fix it. and look. they produced two wonderful children and he was a terrific father to the kardashians and i think made it harder for the jenner kids. >> all the jenner kids are hoping to have a relationship with the new caitlyn jenner. that's a good ending to this story. thank you for sharing with us. the july issue of "vanity fair" hits newsstands june 11th.

there's your pop start. >> fair point. >> something to that. >> all right. carson, thank you. dylan, how about a check of the weather? >> not so good in the northeast. we've got heavier rain for boston now moving out of new york city. we've got unseasonably cool temperatures as well. very foggy from d.c. up into boston too. we are going to see temperatures today well below average all across the northeast. actually running about 20 degrees below normal. 53 is all we're go good morning. i'm meteorologist carrie hall. beautiful as we take a look at the shot from tiburon and into the city. but our temperatures are in the upper 50s to near 60 degrees, partly cloudy skies. today, expect the high temperature to warm up to 77 degrees for the east bay, south bay, 75 degrees, and san francisco today reaching 65 degrees with some clearing. we will see some sunshine in the forecast today and looking ahead to some rain possible this weekend.

have sort of a knack for endurance stuff and wanted to try to use that to make an impact in her life. i've done a few endurance projects. this is the biggest one to date. 14,000 mile journey across the united states and climbing the highest point in every one. >> the hiking, the biking, the climbing. what makes you most nervous about this challenge? >> most nervous, probably the biking. it is dangerous with a lot of cars on the road. but i'm mostly excited. this is going to be a lot of fun, i think. we're doing things i really like to do. climbing, doing any kind of endurance sport but also we're meeting hundreds of people out there in the parkinson's community. >> it's a chance for people with parkinson's or having it in their family, to get together and be active with other families. and own it and move forward. >> and it continues the great work of the michael j. fox foundation. we'll talk to you more. you'll spend some time with willie next hour? >> that would be great.

dinosaurs, it's another thing. a lot of people get eaten in this movie. i'm not giving anything away. >> you mix dinosaurs and this, a lot of people die. >> you come from obviously a show business family. your dad was the very famous actor and director. is he an advice guy? did he sit down at an early part of your career saying here's what you need to know about the business? >> no. he's not an unsolicited advice guy. but when -- you know he does give advice it is fantastic. >> comes from a good place. >> but he doesn't feel so great about himself that he feels he's imparting wisdom. i didn't listen when i was a teenager of course. >> nobody did. you must have learned by osmosis watching him carry out his career. >> yeah. it was a true privilege getting to be raised in a family that was such is healthy awesome family that also happened to be kind of -- being in this

then i went to palestine. maybe you forgot matt i was a sniper. i wrote it in the book. i can put five bullets in the same area. i never killed anybody. but then i was fortunate to go and i'm going to talk about that in the book. what it is to be in a crowded room and i'm very short. i took a good looking guy like matt and i told him put me up on the window sill. because otherwise i can't see. and i passed all the exams and i came to this country. and look what happened. sexually speaking on wyny. >> you were a phenomenon. when you give out advice to people, they listen. you do get asked about sex a lot especially from young people. what is the most frequent question they have about sex? >> these days the most important

question among married couples is boredom in the bedroom. and i'm saying read the book and then you'll know that you can't have boredom and you can't bring your worries in the bedroom. leave them outside the door. make a package. the next day they'll be there. so the important thing is people are more sexually literal now because of people having talking like you television people. but there's still a lot of education to be done. >> you've done a lot of good. you really have. you've given out a lot of advice and helped a lot of people. dr. ruth it's always great to see you. >> we showed the book. but more than that we want to say happy birthday. you have a birthday coming up don't you? >> two days from now. >> happy birthday to you. >> look at this. >> happy birthday.

you just throw the bag away. >> throw this in the fridge for an hour yeah? >> at least. get it on the grill. >> five or six minutes on each side. we normally barbecue this but it's raining outside. >> i'm going to make home made corn tortillas. one ingredient which is corn flour. and to this i'm going to add about a cup and a half of hot water. and all you do is shake itpe it with your hands. i'm going to use a spoon for a second because it's hot. >> it's not intimidating. >> it's not. one ingredient. water and the flour. now i'm going to use my hands. >> you mix that up. i'm going to let this rest about five minutes before chopping it. maybe i should get my cocktail. >> yes. the best part. >> again, this is going to be the simple margarita. tequila and use a good one.

but we're not going to mess it up with too many ingredients. just fresh lime juice which is the most important thing. >> he loves tequila. >> i'm going to make golf ball sized balls and this is a tortilla press which is awesome. but if you don't have one, smash these between two things of parchment paper. look how easy this is and it comes out uniform. and i'm going to throw it on the grill. >> i put a little bit of agave in. fresh lime juice. about half and half there. we're going to pour it and it's delicious. we're going to put a garnish on it. >> did you taste a little? >> i am going to. downstairs you guys are eating the simple taco tuesday right? >> so good. >> that is a winner right there. the home made tortilla. i love it. >> and this margarita is great.

this morning on "today's take," michael j. fox on the three-month challenge he wants you to join. then meet caitlyn. bruce jenner makes his debut as a woman. and the doctor is in. "royal pains" star mark feurstein is with us. all that coming up now. >> announcer: from nbc news this is "today's take" with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist and tamron hall live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> my goodness. the camera tells the story of the weather here in new york city. welcome to "today." it's a dreary tuesday morning in new york city. june 2nd, 2015. al has the day off. you know i come across the

street before the show. i thought it was raining so forgive me. i have a few drops. >> the fans are outside still. incredible. it's cold out there. >> it's cold. >> it's like it's february. >> we're in london weather. >> you can't make us happy. everybody is talking this morning about caitlyn jenner debuting her new name, new look in "vanity fair." the former bruce jenner photos were taken by annie leibovitz yesterday. caitlyn created a twitter as this was happened and reached 1 million twitter followers in just over four hours. that beats the record previously set by the president of the united states. right at about 2 million followers. another jenner world record, and at 65 who would have thought.

thank you for your support. this was -- >> fascinating article. yeah. >> it popped up in your inbox and twitter. and you say my gosh, that's the form ever bruce jenner. >> there was a moment i was walking on 5th avenue and you could see everybody looking at their phones like oh my gosh. getting the news and looking at the picture. everybody was talking about it. and she looks amazing. i guess if you're going to go for it, you go for it. and caitlyn is a beautiful woman. >> that bustier is $200. apparently it sold out already. that's one of the reports out there indicated. down to what she was wearing people were fascinated by. but i personally, the kind tweets from strangers and from her children were just so sweet. i mean i can't imagine and none of us can, the notion of not being free. maybe you can equate it if you were in a relationship that is dysfunctional or violent.

but to say i'm free. feeling like your life has been in bondage for 65 years. and to do it in this way. to say this is who i am now. >> the tweets from the president said it takes courage to share your story. some people made the comparison to jessica lange in terms of appearance. jessica reached for comment said that is so wonderful. now i'm going to have to look for that picture. so she was flattered by the comparison. the "vanity fair" piece written by buzz bissinger hits newsstands on the 11th. >> he spent months with bruce and then as he became caitlyn he spent a lot of time with caitlyn as well. and to hear how bruce becoming caitlyn suffered a panic attack just hours after the

femininization surgery and had to have therapists come over and talk to her and to let her know the comments is normal fear and anxiety and all the feelings you're feeling. talk to people about the emotional side of this. obviously a difficult thing to choose to do this and to put on the dress. but it's another thing entirely to start thinking like a woman and doing everything like a woman. and she's now doing that. >> and she's not doing it alone. going back to their youngest child is 17. while this is a moment of courage for caitlyn, this is not happening in a vacuum. yes we're all watching from the outside and people have speculated on the spectacle that is or things that go along it. but it separates that they are the kardashians. they are still kids.

a 17-year-old, a 20-something 20-something-year-old. and they're on this journey with their father. and we talked about the relationship with kris jenner. we don't discuss how she must feel. because they still -- their stories still don't align. she thought it was a passing phase in his life. he was like how could you have thought that. >> so this one, i have to say, second to the caitlyn headline this blew me away last night. the tsa, the failure to detect fake explosives and weapons through the checkpoints of some of the nation's busiest airports. so they sent in basically a team, an undercover team to see how effective tsa workers are how well they're doing their job. they smuggled in weapons as i

mentioned. 67 out of the 70 attempts that's a 95% failure rate, that's the score at these nation airports. i don't even know what -- where to begin with this. i know people have talked about that it's not the best paying job. maybe you have to bring in the best and brightest. it means you've got to pay more. i don't know if that's validated. >> it's a tough job though. and i give them credit because those who are doing their job they've been shot at. they've had to put themselves in difficult positions. that said, it's a massive glaring failure of the system and what's going to fix it? who knows. >> i think they have to overhaul it. one of the criticism is they

kept recirculating people from within and that you have to break the system. and some have argued privatization. >> we poured tons of money into the tsa. i don't think money is the problem. when you think of all the stuff we've done over the last 14 years. taking shoes off mothers giving up breast milk. >> think of the bottled water issue. yeah. >> then you look at that number and say what are we doing this snr. >> all i know is one time shortly after september 11th and i will tell you honestly, i accidentally had -- i had an eight inch long serrated steak knife in my bag. >> you always travel with that. >> i had brought it to work the day before cutting a grapefruit. yes. this is a huge knife. it was in the bottom of my bag and it was six months after 9/11. and i remember like, it got through two airports. we had a transfer in st. louis. two airports. nobody stopped it. the only reason i finally -- i'm

like whab is that metal sound. i went to the restroom i reached down and cut my hand. i was like my gosh. then i was in a panic like what do i do? i felt like i had a weapon. >> ditch the bag and run. >> this was right after it. i like wrapped it up in toilet paper and threw it in the trash. >> did you? >> that's what i would have done. dump it and run. >> now you really look guilty. >> i know. i could just see the headlines now. >> i would have dumped and run. i have to say the secretary of homeland security said that the tsa has been directed to conduct training for all of its officers in airports across the country. i just think people will say it should be privatized. >> something has to happen. yeah. all right. this is another tragic, tragic story. 22-year-old american woman, she was attacked by a lion in south africa and died.

she was at a wildlife park there. she had left her car window down which they advise against you doing. witnesses say the lion approached and lunge at the suv while she was taking photos. the driver was also injured. the lion sprang into the car, bit her through the open window and, again, the park does warn tourists about getting too close. also tells them to keep the doors locked. over the years as people have come to visit these parks more and more, people -- the lions have lost their fear according to animal experts. they no longer have fear of humans and of cars. we've seen all this footage of close calls before. the video we showed you earlier in march. when a lion actually opened the door handle to the car.

this is how close we are getting to nature and how close they are to figuring out how we work as well. take a look at this video. last year there were some kids at a park in south africa look at them. they're leaning outside of the car window. and look how close that lion is. it could easily -- look at that. he could have got the kids. >> i keep watching it. >> it is scary. >> you know, the signs couldn't be more clear. doors locked, windows up. >> the signs say stop and people still go. it's crazy. >> here's another one that has gone viral. dog lovers in taiwan are loving this new kind of grooming to their pets. they are styling their dogs into perfectly trimmed cubes. how do the dogs feel about this? i'm sure they're not liking it

all that much. taiwanese pet stores -- >> okay. >> clearly it doesn't last long. i mean, it looks cute. but come on. >> it's a lego dog. >> it's so wrong but so right. >> i think you should go that direction. >> no. >> no. >> all right. let's get a check of the weather from dylan who's in for al. >> if you line the dogs up next to each other and stack them on top it's really cool. we are easing the drought in the northeast. we've got a lot of rain moving in and we are still a little bit below aerge. but just a couple weeks ago, we were closer about 5 to 6 inches below average. so we're helping with that. couple showers moving through new england right now. we will see pockets of heavier rain. not only is it rainy but it's raw. temperatures below average.

>> i've been lucky enough to be in a situation to do something and it's been a privilege. but the thing is there's a million people in the states that are affected by parkinson's. but when you think of families and friends and the wider network, it's a lot of folks. joining our ranks. we hope to go out of business soon. but what sam is doing is incredible because it brings in a lot of the community to be out there and to own their connection to parkinson's and to be proactive and feel good about it. >> sam, your mom lucy was diagnosed 15 years ago. you're trying to raise a million dollars for parkinson's research. you're going to earn that money over 48 states. you're going to summit the highest peak in each state, right? how'd you come up with this plan? >> it was actually put together by the team fox faithful community. we put out a challenge to come

gave an opportunity like team fox that is a subset of the foundation which is being being active running marathons, having pancake breakfasts, all that stuff. doing what they can do to make a difference and help and like i said, what sam is doing is an extension of that. it's an expression of positivity and optimism. >> well, you're headed out tomorrow, right? >> that's right. >> go get 'em. we're rooting for you. >> we'll follow your journey along the way. thanks to both of you being here. appreciate it. >> thank you. >> to learn more about the tour de fox and how to help, head to

madeline furnstrum. let's start with this study that came out the relation between fiber intake and diabetes 2. >> there's always been a situation the last couple decades about how much fiber you have and risk of diabetes. this was a study done in europe. so thousands of people were asked how much fiber you eat over a period of about ten years. and what they found is the people that ate the highest amounts of fiber or said they did had a lower incidence of type 2 diabetes. it means this is a useful thing and whether it's fiber alone or it does help with weight loss as well, it could be one of those too. most americans don't eat enough fiber. >> so let's talk about what we need to be eating for women and for men. >> it's something that is hard to get enough fiber. women need about 21, 26 grams. and men, 26 to up to 38 because men are bigger. my general rule of thumb is over 20 grams you're doing great. and that's not hard to do. let's take look. >> can't have too much fiber?

is that true? >> you can. more than 45 or 50 grams it's kind of a block you up. >> okay. don't have too much. >> let's look at what we have here. these are great fiber sources. >> about one serving has 4 grams of fiber. a vegetable fruit, nuts. potato. you can get this even if you don't eat bread or potatoes. >> you want to build on the fiber, let's move over here getting into the 8 grams. >> one cup, same thing. one serving has quite a lot of fiber. or bowl of popcorn. you're a third of the way there. >> get your kids, they love the popcorn. >> not with butter and flavoring. 12 grams in a cup whether it's an all bran cereal or quinoa. baked beans. these kinds of things are going to boost it up. 12 grams in just a serving. and two of those are going to get you to your fiber in a day. >> 16 grabs of fiber.

if you're taking in all of this, you should be drinking a lot of water as well. >> yes. for every serving of fiber drink another 8 ounce glass of water. you need to one-two punch to keep it going. beans are the super fiber food of all. black beans or split peas, these are great. and mix and match. pretty easy to get over 20 grams of fiepber a day. >> one dissolves in water one doesn't. one helps lower cholesterol and the other keeps your pipes clean. >> for more check out how do you get to the top of your game? give it everything you've got and leave those sticky sunscreens behind. new neutrogena cooldry sport. powerful protection designed to feel good. micromesh technology lets sweat pass through and evaporate so skin stays comfortable, while clinically proven protection keeps going strong. don't get stuck with a sticky sunscreen. stay protected and comfortable with every move.

meet to authorize a multi-million federal grant boosting fire safety in the oakland hills. the grant will provide $4 million to help clear yuk lip the u.s. trees and other non-native vegetation. but some residents oppose the plan. they fear it will lead to too much tree cutting. they're also concerned about the use of herb sides critics believe may do more harm than good. good forecast? we'll find out after this break.

degrees. a microclimate forecast we are going to see more of those 60s and 70s today and steady temperatures through the week. >> well it sounds like that great flow of weather. we're looking at a great flow of traffic right now, as we're getting more into a summertime flow. looking at late flowing in the san jose area late past the airport. but really a lighter volume overall through the south bay. a little slowing for 85 through cupertino. a little slowing from the peninsula, but not a big deal for palo alto. approaching the bay bridge things really lightened up over the last ten minutes. that crash over here in richmond has cleared to the shoulder for westbound 80 and the northbound, much lighter drive, an easy drive from san rafael down to the golden gate bridge. >> mike thanks. another local news update for you in half an hour. hope to see you then.

from from nbc news this is "today" with kathie lee gifford and hoda kotb live from studio 1- 1- 1-a in rockefeller plaza. >> it istuesday, june 27bd. it feels like april around here. it has been so so cold and windy and chilly. >> yeah, we're ready for warm weather. zbh that's why you're hearing "nobody love" by torre kelly and i have a dress on that is way too short. >> as usual. i do love your shoes. >> kat says to me every day, do you own another pair of shoes? then the tweets started coming in. do you own one pair of shoes in

every time you say something, it catches like wildfire. >> they're lovely shoes. we have another great show for now day. one woman got something really big coming up is here. she really is adorable. she is starring in the new movie "jurassic world." >> and then the hey girl was the hit climbing chart, billyie kurington is back. tim mcgraw is going to tell us why people are krady for him. >> and guess who is making a house call answering your big questions? she has a couple of big reasons to celebrate. >> yeah she does. >> she took a fire marshal. you no he what i'm saying? >> yeah. >> she's got a birthday coming up. >> all right. of course nobody is talking about anything other than -- well let's look at the headlines. >> you know what is funny about this? kat, you know you've known

bruce and kris forever. >> yes. >> you know what is so funny. this is just how removed i am from the whole thing. so yesterday i was about to do my radio show. it was 1:30 in the afternoon. the producer comes up and says i guess you want to lead with this. and she plopz downs down this picture and i go i dobt know her. i said i don't think. so maybe it's from a weird show i don't know. she said look closely. i think you want to lead it with. i said i don't know call me caitlyn. then i looked. boom all of a sudden you see the features pop-up. but it just shows how different that image from the one -- i mean you've known him forever. >> yeah. i think the daily news actually expresses it. there is a sense of bye, bruce. he was so much a part of the -- he was iconic figure. >> yeah. >> he was -- he represented, you know who goes on a wheaties box. you know? >> yeah. >> and i loved bruce.

i still love bruce. and i'm going to learn to love caitlyn. i've only spoke tonn to her. when i was talking to her on the phone a couple -- maybe a month ago, right before the diane sawyer thing. it still sound like my friend bruce even though what we were talking about is the transitioning. so you know i'm glad that he's -- that she is being treated as lovingly in the public with this. does it take a lot of courage to do what what she's doing. but it also is a very difficult process for the family. you just have to put yourself in their shoes and you can celebrate one person's triumph. and also be aware that it's something that other people are dealing with very uniquely in different ways in their own ways. i'm just hoping that grace will be our guiding force with this. people continue to be kind. >> you were talking about like

the essence of a person. i think that is an interesting thought. >> i don't believe people -- that god makes mistakes. that's my personal opinion. i do believe that god creates -- he loves what and who he creates. if you believe that god is love god loves, he cannot hate. >> right. >> okay. is there anything god can't do? yeah he can't hate. he loves. that is his essence. so i was talking to caitlyn. he told me her new name at the time. you know you have to get used to this. but basically said you know what? what god created in you is the essence of you. the being that you are. whether you call yourself a man or a woman, whether you transition whether you have your genitalia changed, this body that we're all in is temple. and our soul i think, what is what eternal. so that being that god created was not a mistake.

and god loves that person however she sees herself. >> and that's -- i that i is spot on. the transition i think, you know you wondered how the transition was going to be. and this "vanity fair" article is very revealing. >> 22 pages long. and it's really thorough. >> it talks about how caitlyn underwent a ten hour facial feminization surgery. >> it was supposed to be five. >> after it was over she had a panic attack. >> the next day. >> she got up and thought oh, my god, what have i done? she walked out of the house. she was trying to catch her breath. it was that feeling of you've already done it. >> and there's no turning back. >> but she had a counsellor that said this is what happens. it's normal. take a breath. and she said sit. since that moment she hasn't looked back. so it was a one off kind of panic thing. >> the good news about all of this is that it is really sparked a discussion of it. >> yeah. >> and i think it will help many people who have gender issues. they're not going to feel alone.

it breaks your heart, really the article about -- again, i've known him since 1982. frank's known him since 1976. we went all around the world together on different family trips and things. i think everybody has heard that we're god parents to their two children so there is a familiarity. there is an intimacy. there i never saw breasts on him ever. you know he's swimming all the time. diving off boats and water skiing and all those things. but i never saw that. so you know it's not a he said/she said thing. it's deal what w. what is now. >> that's exactly right. >> again, try to deal with it with grace. deal with it with grace. >> when you look at the video there, the photo shoot is one of those things that she said afterward she cried. >> it's very emotional. emotional. >> it must have been wow and i think his tweet was something like now he can breathe or she

can. he -- she said she understands people have issues with pro nouns and not to get so freaked out about it because obviously -- >> i have to tell you, i was scrolling through twitter when it -- i mean he had 1.9 million an hour i'm sure it's up to beyond 2 now, but when scrolling and looking to see what's the tone, usually on twitter where you can be invincible and say whatever horrible thing you want. >> anonymously, right. >> i was like oh my gosh it seemed -- i could -- i didn't see any, i'm sure there were ones that were unkind but to think you could have you know, almost 2 million followers millions of tweets and people are being supportive. >> the one thing everybody doesn't -- no one is talking about is that this is a huge moment for her, but it doesn't mean that her life is going to be problem-free now. >> yes. >> i think sometimes we think, if i could just get that, just do that, then my life will be perfect. there is no such thing as a

perfect life. >> right. we still have our problems. >> she will go through life and -- i think it was interesting in the article talks about 20 some percent of people who transition do not change their gender, do not have that genital ya changed. >> right. >> so now there will be sexual questions that she will face. >> yeah. >> and you know what i love the family. i disagree with a lot of the decisions they've made through the years, but friends love you through thick and thin. >> right. >> or else they're not a friend and find a different word to use. >> you also learn about his other children in the article more than -- you don't really hear from kendall, kylie or any of the kardashian girls. you hear from his other -- >> yeah. whom i don't know very well, at all. so i think i've met brodie one time. i don't know them. >> he's honest how he was with a father, wasn't present with the kids missed graduations and birthdays and all kinds of things. one of his daughter said

changing your gender doesn't -- because you're struggling with that doesn't explain your issues with not being present. >> and being a good parent. >> right. >> but caitlyn is very honest about the fact that she knows as bruce, she made lots of bad decisions. >> yes. >> and that hurt a lot of people. >> if you want to read the article, we've told you most of it don't worry about it. >> june 11th. >> i bet you can't even get it. >> it will eclipse the demi moore cover with the pregnant -- >> does that have the -- >> i think that has the record. >> oh. >> i'm not sure but i think it does. >> you think? >> i think it does. not of princess diana. >> we have a winner. you've been wondering. >> not caitlyn jenner. >> all right. we asked you to send in a photo of a room in your house that needed an overhaul for your inspiration, make room for color, our contest. we showed you four finalists and these are the four and this is the one you like the best. >> we haven't seen it yet. >> that's debbie's bedroom. her inspiration was a michigan

get help right away for unexpected bleedin g, unusual bruising or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not tak e xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any kidney liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u.s. and that number's growing. like your guys' scores. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto®. now, lips slip into our creamiest mattes. color sensational creamy mattes from maybelline new york. unique matte-cream formula meets bold pigment color for our smoothest, most seductive mattes. maybelline creamy mattes ♪ maybe it's maybelline. ♪ jane's wearing martha washington's inaugural gown to prove you can wear anything while pouring our thicker formula bleach. freedom from splashing revolutionary whitening. the liberating line of clorox splash-less
