>> now, last year it was all about the whip and the nae-nae, so there's a new dance craze called the dab. link and dab, link and dab. >> i never learned the nae-nae. >> it's the lean and the dab. >> they're going to show us. they said it was easy. >> okay. now, you said a nice weekend with your mom. i love when you take your little trips together. >> we did. we went to florida. and we just -- we just got some rays. my mom was just like -- she's on the go. oh, my god, we saw mary higgins clark in the lobby. i said to my mom, that's mary higgins clark, and she said, a select. so we snuck up to her. she said she wants to come back on the show. >> it seems like she's here every week with a new book.

>> she said she's on too much. >> she's not on too much. >> that's what we said. >> the other day it was love your pet day and in my case it was love your pets. i put them on the sofa. like that. >> they immediately look at the camera. >> do they ever get muddy and run on your furniture? >> yeah, but we try to get rid of it as soon as possible. >> today is national margarita day. how do you like yours, hoda? >> i like mine on the rocks. with just tequila and nothing else. just tequila. >> that's really good. >> that's like one of those skinny ones. >> why do we have a margarita cupcake, you might add? >> they're tequila soaked. shall we try it? >> i'm not eating sweets, so you try it. >> i'm not supposed to be eating sweets. >> your trainer is watching you.

hoda. >> what's isn't? mme. just lime. >> you're going to pay for that. >> you know a word i don't like, when it says lime curd is in it. what is curd? >> by the way, it's delicious. >> what's on the top? >> anyway, it's created by pastry chef michelle spell. each cupcake is $3.25 and worth it. >> but how many calories? >> they don't tell you that. >> all right. so kanye has been making an awful lot of news lately. >> not for good reasons. >> not for good reasons, but if showing signs of how tiring fatherhood can be is in this next picture, he's exhausted. they were out shopping, he and kim and the babies. is that north? >> north is long. she's tall. >> they were out with chrissy teigen and john legend.

>> apparently they do. she sent that out. she said it would be her father's birthday today had he not passed away. >> we also have a picture for the very first time, a photo of their other child, brand new baby -- not brand new, born in december. >> it's beautiful. it's really beautiful. all babies are beautiful, though, aren't they? >> i couldn't remember if saint was there are born. there are so many people pregnant and having babies. christey teaguen chrissiey teigen is pregnant. >> look how beautiful she looks. she's gorgeous. >> here's what happened. chrissiey teigen was tweeting that she was going to have a night nurse come and help her when the baby is born. >> she's a first-time mother, okay. >> so twitter went cray like twitter does. they were saying it's part-time

are, all those things. so she responded, because chrissy teigen does not mince words. she says a night nurse doesn't replace you waking and feeding at night. you're up with them, they're helpers and teachers. she said i'm so used to sharing my life that i forget how protective i'll have to be soon. i cannot handle this kind of constant judgment. >> nor should she have to but it unfortunately comes with the territory. it's the world we live in. it blows my mind that people think that their opinion is going to matter to you. she knows whose opinions matter so don't even read this stuff. >> she says whatever she wants on twitter. a couple of times she tweeted me something really crazy and vug gar and wild and i thought that was an imposter. she goes after people who say negative things about her. good for her. >> why give them any power? i would just ignore them. just ignore them.

but don't give them the power matters to you. >> does it ever matter when you read things? >> if somebody has misunderstood my intention about something, then i respond to it. but somebody just giving me their opinion on something and they don't even know me -- >> yes. >> no. no, no, no. don't give them power. right? >> right, chris? chris says yes. we don't care what chris says. he can say whatever he wants. does doesn't make sense to me but apparently there's a right way to write an e-mail. you're going to ask your friend to go to dinner and you want to sound like a normal human being, not overeager, not crazy. >> what kind of a friend are we talking about? >> a friend. >> why would you be overeager to ask a friend to have dinner? >> can you go. do you want to go to lunch? what time do you want to go? >> you know what i do to you? lamb chop, question mark. that's what i do to you.

and analyzed 5.3 million e-mails. >> an e-mail efficiency service. >> they determined these are the phrasings. so you guys choose and decide which e-mail is the best way to ask someone to dinner. here's number one. >> hey, i was thinking about you earlier. do you want to get pizza. >> number two. >> hey, i definitely w to get pizza? and this is hoda's. >> hey, it would be absolutely wonderful to see you. do you want to get pizza? i'm so excited. so i would say 1. number one, life is short. hungry? pizza? meet me. which one do you want? >> i don't know why i think it's so funny. there's nothing really funny about it but it's hysterical. i've lost it. i think i would go -- i would send number three, i'm so excited but i would hate to receive that one.

wait, let's go get pizza. i think i would go with number two. >> hey, i'd definitely like to get together next week. do you want to get pizza? i think that's ridiculous. if it's a good friend, they know you want to get together. experts, keep those things on when you say the words, say you want to t.o.infer that goldilocks area, not too positive, not to negative, not too in your face. what kind of friends do they have? first of all, don't do e-mail. that's an even better thing. hoda, i'm hungry. let's go eat. >> you'd say yes and that would be the end of it. so again city ofgwen stefani and blake apparently. they're sort of wrapped up. >> and you did wonder if it was a bouncy thing from their oar relationships or if it was

>> they say if you fall in love right away it's not that great long time. i'm not saying it's not going to last, but -- >> you sure as heck hope it doesn't. let's be honest. >> so i guess blake -- gwen stefani couldn't attending and so she brought her iphone and was facetiming him. >> the man does 300 gigs a year. of course she can't be at every one of them. it's not like she's missing his bar mitzvah or something. if you're in love with a lawyer, do you go and hear all his closing arguments? >> but here's the thing about facetiming. i was telling you, i went to the beach and there were four girls sitting at a table and their fifth friend couldn't come to the beach, so she was present everywhere. hey, look, we're having blueberry pancakes. look at that.

them pass the phone around, look at the sunrise. >> and it gets elevated and >> driving me nuts. >> was there alcohol involved at >> no. there should have been. should have been. oh, that's good. >> it bugs you. >> i don't know why. and i t cares. hey, look at the sunrise. butnd pass it over here and look what i'm wearing. it just seemed, i don't know, a little annoying, right? >> let me ask you this, did they know you were sitting there next to them? now you outed all of them and they probably were fans of yours before and not now. you've got to think these things through. >> anyhoo, this is kind of cute. so this little girl saved up all of her money because she wanted to buy her brother a hamster. >> that is so sweet. she's the younger sister, right? >> she's the younger sister. look at this moment that she decided to break the piggy bank.

reaction. >> a hamster. i paid for it. why are you crying? why are you crying? >> i think he's happy. >> are you happy crying? oh. >> how does it end? please tell me. oh, that is the sweetest thing. >> can i tell you one quick teeny story? >> apparently not. >> when i graduated -- when i graduated from college and i was looking for a job and i needed a car, my brother worked at popeye's fried chicken. he worked there every day that summer and i needed a $1,000 down payment to get a car because i didn't have a car to go to work and he wrote his whole check to me. he just wrote the check and handed to me. he worked every day that summer and he gave me the check. >> ooh.
