their home. and abc news exclusive. talk show host wendy williams, in her first interview since fainting on live tv. >> it felt like i was in the middle of a fire. >> what really happened and the two things she was thinking about the moment she fell only on "gma" this morning. ♪ what you came for >> this is what you came for. iphone frenzy growing around the globe. thousands lining up and camping out overnight for the iphone x but can you actually get one in your hands? ♪ and good morning, america. great to have you with us this friday morning. how about those lines for the iphone already. check this out in new york city. >> they are growing. they've been out there -- one guy first in line said he's been out there since wednesday. >> really? >> yes. >> that's loitering.

>> that's one way to put it, michael. also this morning a lot of reaction coming in to the republicans' sweeping $1.5 trillion tax plan now revealed and our new poll out this morning shows 60% of americans believe his tax plan mainly favors the wealthy. >> the president, well, he's also facing a surprise twitter shut down overnight. his account disappeared for 11 minutes and it turns out a twitter employee was kind of behind that. >> which means the president was up early tweeting about that. we'll get into that coming up. also kick off his trip to asia. longest of his presidency and visit japan, china and south kor korea. right to cecilia vega already on the ground in tokyo. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: just landed, george. good morning to you h is being called the most consequential trip for the president. tomorrow one of the things on his agenda playing a round of golf with shinzo abe but hanging

over this trip is the threat of north korea. questions about whether president trump might tone down his language using words like rocket man and aides are telling us he doesn't plan to tone down his language. we won't hear a softer tone but ahead he is considering adds pyongyang, north korea, to that list of state-sponsored terrorism. one thing the president won't be doing on this triple not be visiting the dmz, the demilitarized zone. past presidents have made that trip. this president is not going to do so. the white house says he'll go to south korea and visit troops and a military base there instead. >> in the meantime, cecilia, that 11-minute shutdown of the president's twitter account and the president saying this morning they were doing it for a reason. >> reporter: yeah, as you mentioned he is up and tweeting about it. he says take a look, here's the tweet, my twitter account was taken down for 11 minutes by a rogue employee. i guess the word must finally be

getting out and having an impact. not really sure what impact he's talking about but let me give you a few details. this happened around 7:00 last night. the president's twitter account went dark and lasted for all of 11 minutes, overnight twitter gave the reason. this is what they're saying, blaming a rogue employee and says it was his last day on the job and he deactivated the president's account on his way out the door and they are conducting a full internal review. this is the twitter er in chief. he started this account in 2009 and he's tweeted more than 36,000 times. president trump himself has said that part of the reason he won the white house is because of his use of social media and his popularity on it so clearly his blank twitter account caused quite the stir online. so far in spite of that tweet from president trump himself, george, no comment from the white house. >> amazing that one person at twitter could do that. thanks very much.

>> george, more on the tax plan. a sweeping overhaul now revealed. to our senior congressional correspondent mary bruce there on capitol hill with more on what it means for families. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, robin. well, lawmakers are still poring over this 400 plus page bill but the big question this morning what does this really mean for you? republicans are promising relief to the middle class, but we've learned much of that could depend on where you live and what deductions you rely on. this morning, the president is giving the sweeping new republican tax plan rave reviews. >> people are loving it. we've had tremendous receptivity to a point i haven't seen anything like it. >> reporter: it's a big win for the rich but the president insists that's not the case. >> not for the rich. it's for the middle class and it's for jobs. >> reporter: so which is it? republicans say the average family making $59,000 a year could save roughly $1200 per year. their bill simplifies the number of tax brackets from seven to

just four. if your family makes more than $24,000 a year but less than $90,000 you would pay up to 12%. if you have children, the child tax credit expands from $1,000 to $1,600. ecstatic, the president welcomed the plan thursday with a smooch. but to pay for all these tax cuts, the bill slashes popular tax breaks that many americans rely on. if you have student debt, gone would be that student loan interest deduct. the deduction for medical expenses is out too. looking to buy a home, the mortgage interest deduction would be cut in half. only applying to the first $500,000 of a home loan. now, critics say this is just a boon to the rich and it is a big win for big business slashing the corporate tax rate from 35% down to just 20% and, robin, it eliminates the estate tax which is likely to benefit wealthier

americans. >> that is the chances the bill will pass. >> reporter: i talked to some house republicans who say this bill isn't going to cut it. they are a no but republican leaders remain optimistic they can get this through and heard yesterday the president promised the american people this bill will be, quote, a big, beautiful christmas present. >> we did hear that. all right, mary. >> a lot does depend on the president. let's bring in jon karl for more on that. the president out there selling it yesterday even though our new poll shows a majority of americans don't like the plan so far and some skittishness on capitol hill about how the president will lead this fight given what happened during the health care fight. >> reporter: there is constant fear that the president is going to change his mind, change policy in response to criticism or cut some kind of side deal and the republicans will learn about it on twitter but i have to say overall i sense confidence on the part of republicans and spoke to speaker of the house paul ryan here yesterday after his meeting with the president and he says he really does believe they can get it done by christmas. >> meantime, jon, the democratic

party rocked by this revelation by donna brazile that the clinton campaign had effectively taken control over the dnc before she got the nomination. president trump now weighing in on that this morning. >> reporter: he's got a double-barreled attack on this. he's going after the dnc, of course, but he's also in an odd twist going after his own justice department. overnight the president jumped on revelations that hillary clinton had control over the dnc even before she won her party's nomination. tweeting, donna brazile just stated the dnc rigged the system to illegal steal the primary from bernie sanders. bought and paid for by crooked h. this is real collusion and dishonesty, major violation of campaign finance laws and money laundering. where is our justice department? he's referring to revelations in a new book by former dnc chair donna brazile who reveals that the dnc entered into an agreement back in 2015 that gave the clinton team a degree of control over the party long

before the first votes were cast in the democratic primary. trump continued the attack last night in an interview on fox news. >> but i want to tell you that is a big story, what she's saying. it's illegal, number one, and it's really unfair to bernie sanders. i'm not a bernie sanders fan but i must say i got a lot of his votes when he was thrown out. >> reporter: in another interview the president expressed frustration that he doesn't have more control over his own justice department. >> i'm very frustrated by it. i look at what's happening with the justice department. why aren't they going after hillary clinton with her e-mails and her -- the dossier and the kind of money -- i don't know. is it possible they paid $12.4 million for the dossier and how was -- which is total phony, fake. and how is it used? >> reporter: and the president just minutes ago went after his own justice department yet again on twitter tweeting, everybody is asking why the justice department and the fbi isn't looking into all of the dishonesty going on with crooked

hillary and the dems. by the way, george, democrats are raising questions about this, as well. elizabeth warren was asked point blank if she believes the primary was rigged and she said, yes. >> a lot of democrats angry about this and don't like what hillary clinton did during the campaign. the more they've learned about it from donna brazile but to clarify a couple of points here. there's no indication there was any illegal activity going on in the dnc despite the president's claims and i guess if he really wanted the justice department to investigate this, he could ask them. >> reporter: absolutely. no allegation of illegal activity coming really from anybody except for the president. but it is quite something to see him effectively go after his own attorney general instead of simply maybe asking had him to look into it. >> jon karl, thanks very much. george, also this morning, we're learning new details about that deadly terror attack here in new york city. overnight people gathered for a special vigil and march to remember the victims. and now we have dramatic new video showing what happened right after the attacker was

taken down by police. we're also learning about a phone call he made right before the rampage and our chief investigative correspondent brian ross is here with new details. >> that's right and good morning to you. overnight as isis claimed responsibility for the halloween attack in new york, federal agents grew more concerned that the attacker might have been part of a larger cell. 29-year-old sayfullo saipov reportedly told the fbi he acted alone but now agents are raising questions about a number of his associates who like him came to the u.s. from uzbekistan. senior federal officials tell abc news they will be questioning a friend of his later today who agents say saipov called in the hour before the attack and as well, robin, saipov is known to have been a point of contact for at least 23 uzbek residents who came to the u.s. >> as agents look into the background of those 23, of course, there has to be concern they had terror connections. >> of course, at least one was expelled from the u.s. because of such concerns and uzbekistan has been a breeding ground for a number of isis followers, nine of whom have been convicted or

are awaiting trial in the u.s. on terrorism charges so the question this morning is what contact if any they had with saipov and whether there may be some kind of cell in this country of uzbek immigrants to the u.s. >> a question we want to know the answer to. all right. >> we'll find out. thank you. we're learning more about the schoolchildren on the bus that was hilt in that terrorist attack. noah salz was on board and his parents were worried about his whereabouts but then saw him on the news. >> and then i started to cry and then i said, i want to just get out of here quickly as i can. then i sat there for a minute and heard a gunshot. >> i actually was able to call noah and i spoke to him briefly then i saw him on a stretcher. that was a real odd moment. >> wow. >> incredibly enough noah went to school the very next day. he has a perfect attendance record. de not want to lose that and it is very important to him to show up. what a special kid.

>> indeed, thank you, michael. turning to new allegations, though against kevin spacey. eight people who work on "house of cards" reportedly accusing the star of sexual harassment saying it created a toxic work environment. abc's linsey davis is here with more on that. good morning, linsey. >> reporter: good morning. these eight people are all coming forward anonymously saying they ferret tri because but describe the set of "house of cards" as a toxic environment for young men who had to interact with spacey in any capacity. new sexual misconduct allegations this morning against kevin spacey from the set of his hit show "house of cards." >> honesty is your best defense and offense. >> reporter: eight new accusers speaking anonymously to cnn say the two-time academy award winner's behavior was predatory and claim it involved nonconsensual touching and crude comments targeting somemembers. one former production assistant said he assaulted him in a car when he was tanked with driving him to set. >> the new allegations against

kevin spacey raise the question as to whether there will be both criminal and civil charges filed. >> reporter: overnight mrc, the production company behind "house of cards" said we are deeply troubled to learn about these new allegations concerning kevin spacey's interaction with members of the crew. the company revealed that one crew member did make a complaint against spacey for a specific remark and gesture in 2012 and mr. spacey willingly participated in a training process to resolve the issue. netflix had already suspended production on "house of cards" after recent accusations from actor anthony rapp who told buzzfeed that spacey made a sexual advance toward him when he was just 14 years old. spacey said he didn't remember the encounter with rapp but apologized for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior. his representative confirms spacey is now seeking unspecified treatment. this as hollywood movie mogul harvey weinstein could potentially face criminal charges on new rape allegations in new york. the nypd says they are

investigating claims weinstein assaulted "boardwalk empire" actress on two occasions in 2010. the actress alleges the first assault happened after the movie mogul offered to dive her home. one inside her apartment she said he forced himself on her. the nypd has two active investigations going on foo weinstein. weinstein's representative says any allegations of nonconsensual sex are unequivocally denied about mr. weinstein. as for spacey, the agency that represented him and his public bliss have parted ways with the actor. the future of the show remains up in the air but the production company says they have now created an anonymous complaint hotline that they're providing counselors and legal advisers for all of the members of the crew. >> so far reaching. thank you, linsey. >> absolutely. thank you. thousand to the iphone frenzy. it's been growing overnight and today is the day you can get your hands on the new iphone x. people all across the world have

been lining up and our chief business correspondent rebecca jarvis is at an apple store right here in new york city. good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: good morning, michael. yes, this is it. this is the phone that has everybody here lining up on and on around the block. they've brought blankets, chairs, emergency water, the first guy in line has been waiting here since wednesday. this is nico. how long have you been waiting here. >> since wednesday 5:30 a.m. >> have you ever waited for an iphone before this? no. >> you want to hold it? >> of course, this is gorgeous. oh, my god. >> so people are lining up -- i'm glad you love it. there are people lining up around the country, around the world this morning to get their hands on this phone. the palo alto store in the backyard of apple's headquarters has a huge line outside already this morning, michael. people want to get their hands on this phone. >> you better take that phone back to nico. he started using it like it was his already. rebecca, we see all those people in line. are they actually going to get a phone and what about somebody like us who can't tan in line and didn't want to stand in line

interwoven... ...exclusively at kay, jared and zales. welcome back to "gma." that is the scary moment that tv host wendy williams fainted on live tv and now she's opening up to amy about it this morning revealing what was going through her head as it happened in a really candid interview. we have that coming up with her later in the show. >> halloween morning and many of us were watching. >> hard to watch. >> yes, it was. glad she's doing okay and we'll hear what she has to say to amy. also, president trump is now reacting to that shutdown of his twitter account that lasted 11 minutes last night. an employee who is leaving the company temporarily shut it down and the president was tweeting about it already this morning. he is starting his 12-day trip to asia today stopping in hawaii this afternoon then heading to five countries including japan, china and south korea. high on the agenda dealing with the north korean nuclear threat.

>> it is an important trip. right now we'll take a look at a startling look at the way isis is trying to recruit young americans. in the wake of the recent terror attack in new york city it is a warning for parents about what most think would never happen in their own homes. diane sawyer, this is part of your special tonight, "isis in america." this really is so shocking. >> it is shocking and i think people are going to be really surprised by this psychological power of their recruiting techniques and that they're reaching into every american household. we're talking about all religions and all you need is a kid with a computer. a desperate father calls 911 about his son. >> i need somebody as quick as possible. >> we have units en route to you. stay on the line with me, okay. >> i don't know if it's isis or what. >> this is your son. >> yes. >> you can hear that son in the background. >> you're going to throw me in jail my whole life. why are you trying to say i'm a terrorist. >> reporter: justin sullivan grew up in a catholic home with trophies, friend, a bedroom

filled with childhood toys. his dad a retired marine captain rich sullivan. >> i imagine him joining the military. and tfollowing my footsteps. >> reporter: his high school reported to the parents that justin had violent fantasies in his writing and suspended him. they said he needed serious help. the parents had no idea that their 18-year-old son alone with his computer had reached out to isis recruiters. he sent a message, in less than 24 hours a top captain of isis responded. 6,184 miles away. the recruiters seem to know what to do and say to weaponize an isolated kid like justin. first affirm them like techs from other isis case, welcome, brother. blessings upon you. justin is lonely.

isis can fix that. and then another key step. tap into the fantasies. we know justin loves the video game call of duty. isis has an idea call of jihad. if justin takes violent action, they will make him a hero, a celebrity. in december 2014 justin sullivan puts on a ski mask and murders a neighbor with his father's rifle which he hides. police find the neighbor's body but have no suspect and then in a few months he tells his isis recruiter he's ready to go big. and isis says make a videotape so they can be sure he's famous. he's going to get an assault rifle and slaughter people at a concert in north carolina or at a club. hundreds will die. he buys a ticket to an upcoming gun show days away from attack.

as the clock is ticking down his parents discover a package containing a gun silencer and for the second time the father makes a desperate call for help. >> i called the police department. i said i need to talk to somebody in homeland security. >> reporter: tonight a father from north carolina has a warning for parents. he's a marine who fought the enemy abroad. >> here i am defending our country against domestic enemies, what so happened to be my son. i didn't think it would be this close to home. >> by the way you're going to hear from justin sullivan who calls us in from prison tonight but i want to remind everybody there are thousands of investigations under way right now in every single state in this country and we've spent a year looking into who's vulnerable and why. >> this shows just how hard it is to police something like this. a kid alone in his basement. his dad turned him in. >> a lot of counterterrorism

experts are saying this is the new war. isis may be losing on the ground, losing territory but this is the new war and we have to pay attention to it. >> you've been working on this for over a year. a lot of people know what happened here in new york with the truck attack and they thought it was reaction to this but this is something you've been working on for quite some time. >> this has been a question, a burning question we have had for a long time. >> the father being aware enough to see this happening and call the authorities on the child. >> made all the difference. >> you all can see the special "20/20," diane sawyer investigates isis in america at 10:00 eastern on abc. >> always great to see you, diane sawyer. >> thank you, robin roberts and michael strahan and george stephanopoulos, thank you all. did i get everybody? >> we're out of time now. >> we'll continue that theme. amy robach, her exclusive interview with wendy williams when we come back. stay with us. go slow.

our first -- >> reporter: it was the moment that left everyone speechless. talk show titan wendy williams fainting during a live broadcast of her halloween episode tuesday morning. >> our first -- >> reporter: hitting the ground while introducing a halloween costume contest segment fueling rumors that she may be suffering from a debilitating illness. >> people thought i was having a stroke on tv and others thought i was having a heart attack. >> reporter: but the popular daytime host phone for her wild audience and hot topics -- >> jackson for god's sakes. >> reporter: told me that moment had everything to do with a very tight halloween costume and a bad case of dehydration. >> you know, i'm a woman of a particular age. i'm also going through menopause. i didn't think my costume was hot when i first tried it on. it was a cat suit. if it was a dress i'd be like this. you know, like oh my god, i'm hot. >> get some air in here. >> apparently i was dehydrated according to the paramedics and instead of drinking regular

water i had electrolyte drinks then, you know, i went to my own doctors and i'm fine including blood work. >> it's pretty incredible. you jumped back up. came back out here and finished the show. the show cut to special as she hit the ground. just a few minutes later shoers were shocked to see she was right back to hosting. >> that was not a stunt. i'm overheated in my costume and i did pass out. >> did you ever consider just taking it easy at that point? >> well, i'm not your average talk show host. you know, it's pretty special thing to be a wendy williams and it takes a lot. >> maybe your body was telling you to slow down, wendy. >> may be. but that's what the weekend is here for. >> so you're not going to slow down. >> well, i do slow -- i do find time for myself. this is a tough grind. >> did you know you were if going to faint. >> yes, when we came back from the break then i felt it. it felt like i was in the middle of a fire starting down at my feet going all the way up. i got very scared because it was a live show. i was more concerned with when i

board. the debate always comes up this time of year should we keep daylight saving time all year long? i just said it wrong, didn't i, diane? >> saving. no "s." >> saving. not the "s" on the end. this weekend we turn our clocks back an hour. not everybody is a fan. diane macedo is here to explain so, diane, tell us what is going on? >> we know this whole process turn them ahead and back and can be disruptive. this panel in massachusetts is trying to do away with that and stay in this daylight saving time mode all year round but only if they can get neighboring states on board. the thing is, new hampshire, connecticut, maine, rhode island, all of these states are actually contemplating similar measures, so this is a possibility. keep in mind hawaii and most of arizona already does this so there are states that are moving in this direction or already there. but new york right now is a hold-out and without new york it's unlikely that new england will move in that direction because the idea of having boston and new york city in two

separate time zones presents its own set of problems. >> i vote for new york to move it. this had a good idea behind it saving energy. >> it started that way as a wartime measure. world war i, world war ii and became permanent in the '70s during an energy crisis. now those problems don't really exist and so that's what fosters the debate. the whole idea is simply you delay sunset so you get more daylight in the evening when everyone is out of work. on the flip side if the sunset is later the sun is rising later so for people who are waking up early, that can be a problem because they're spending their morning in the dark and so that is sort of the flip side of the argue many and why people either want to or not do this fallback. >> really quick. daylight savings -- >> no "s." >> it became a thing and people started saying it that way but it's daylight saving time. >> it's either to say daylight saving time. >> diane, thank you. >> if you could turn back time. ♪ turn back time

>> great "pop news." in the building. got to love our security. love that. we'll turn to our "gma" cover story. new accusations in the hollywood harassment scandal targeting dustin hoffman and filmmaker brett ratner who is now filing a libel lawsuit. abc's linsey davis has those details. good morning. >> hello again. after more than half a dozen allegations of sexual harassment brett ratner is heading to court but not as a defendant. he is suing one of his accusers after she called him a rapist on social media. his attorney claims his client suffered injuries to his reputation as a result and now they're suing for damages. this morning, hollywood heavyweight brett ratner is on the offense suing one of several women who have come forward accusing him of sexual harassment or abuse. the filmmaker known for blockbuster movies like "rush hour" and "x-men: the last

stand" is pushing back. six women accused him of inappropriate behavior including actresses olivia munn and natasha henstridge. ratner is now filing a defamation suit against melanie kohler who wrote a facebook post calling him a rapist. kohlerer's post has since been taken down but said he was a rapist on at least one night in hollywood about 12 years ago and he preyed on me as a drunk girl and forced himself upon me. ratner disputes that account. and now a spokesperson for kohlerer is firing back saying we always knew that they would pick one woman to victimize further in an effort to bully other women into silence. so our message to mr. ratner and his lawyer is short and simple. see you in court. and now a second woman has come forward accusing two-time oscar winner dustin hoffman of sexual harassment on the heels of hoffman's apology for anything i might have done to cause a former production assistant to accuse him of sexual harassment when she was 17 years old working on the set of "death of

a salesman" in 1985. >> i don't know why i can't stop myself. >> reporter: the second accuser, writer and producer, wendy riss says hoffman made unwanted sexual advances during a private pitch meeting. we did reach out to hoffman for comment but did not get a reply. he did issue a statement to the "hollywood reporter" after the first allegation saying i have the utmost respect for women and fear terrible anything i might have done could have hut her in an uncomfortable position. i am sorry. it is not reflective of who i am. >> thank you very much. our legal team dan abrams and sunny hostin are here. i like to say you're our dream team. >> thank you. >> okay, now other women have accused ratner, but he singles out this particular accuser. >> yeah. well, this is right out of the defense playbook. the best defense is a good offense so let's find the woman that's the least famous, let's find the woman that's the most vulnerable. let's find the woman that perhaps can't afford a great attorney and let's sue that

woman and that's what victims of sexual assault and abuse are most concerned about. they fear retaliation and they fear intimidation and i think this is just one intimidation tactic that's not going to work given the current climate. >> when you say that we just have this new abc news/"washington post" poll and four out of ten in that poll say they didn't report harassment in part because they fear retaliation. >> you know something really interesting. as a legal matter which is the statute of limitations is likely expired for her to do anything but he can now sue her. >> yeah. >> so meaning she can't take any legal action against him, but he can take legal action against her. >> i think that makes her claim more significant and makes her more credible. she's not suing for money or going to the police and saying he raped me. he is saying this is what happened to me too. >> this is going to be really hard. if you actually take this lawsuit seriously, right. what he's going to have to do is he's going to have to show it was false. it was defamatory and that she knew or should have known that

it wasn't true. so basically that she knew that she was making it up. >> what kind of case does the accuser have to build? >> well, the best defense to a claim of -- dan's completely right. the best defense to a claim of libel defamation is the truth and so she has to show that she is telling the truth. now, given this current climate when more than six women have come out and said he did it to me too, i mean i don't think that that's a very difficult case to prove. >> he has the burden to prove it. meaning he's the mraf here so she doesn't have the burden to prove anything. all she's going to have to do is respond to the lawsuit and here's the danger for him, of course. is that in the context of the lawsuit, part of her defense is well this is a pattern and practice on his part. so i'd like to call in all of the other women. >> the one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. >> the list goes on. >> that's significant. >> that's why you've got to believe he doesn't want this case to go to trial. meaning with all these other women out there, you know, it feels like a kind of statement

by him more than an actual lawsuit, we'll see. i could be wrong. >> it's a very stale play. >> we'll see you on "the view." >> yes. >> we'll see you with live -- >> "live p.d." >> i didn't know i was getting a "live p.d." promo on a&e.

and father who tries to stay in shape. what keeps you healthy. >> cycling junkie. 40 or 50 friends, the spandex poos. >> the spandex posse. we both have our weaknesses. me, i'm a chocolate chip cook cookieaholic. what is your thing. >> anything with bacon. >> reporter: we ask dr. susan domcheck of the university of pennsylvania, a cancer genetics expert not afill created with teloyears to discuss the results. phil is told his age is 47. one year younger than his chronological age. >> pretty much right on. >> reporter: my real age is 46. but your france. >> your teloyears say you're 21. so that must feel pretty good to be 21 again. >> reporter: before i break out the champagne -- >> right now i don't see how this is useful for patients to know what to do with their health. there has to be more study. >> reporter: this doctor says the clinical director of the teloyears center at johns

hopkins. >> it's unlikely the telomere lens will tell us how old we are because there's such a broad lens no normal healthy people. >> reporter: only certain people should get it tested because it can affect their treatment. on its website teloyears says it does not offer medical advice and nothing contained in the content is intended to constitute professional advice for medical diagnosis. it's not been cleared or approved by the food and drug administration, michael, but i guess after my testing i'm just going to keep exercising. >> well, i think you should change your age on your driver's license to 21. i give you permission for that. becky, thank you so much. everybody, we'll be right back.

>> good morning, it is 8 7:a.m., friday are northbound 3. i'm tamala edwards. let's head over to karen rogers and see what it's like on the roads. >> reporter: good morning, tam, we are starting on 42, 17 minute ride from the ac expressway to 295. work crews on the side as well. on-ramp to route 7 is blocked because of a disabled vehicle. that's causing slow traffic in cherry hill. church town road we have an accident involving a school bus, the earlier one cleared. here's a live look at i-95 at cottman. no delay right now. traffic overall on the majors is looking good. i think people saw 75 and friday

welcome back to "gma." it is bad hair day here in the studio. and we've all had a bad hair day from time to time and you guys asked for help so we are here to help you. we have our expert stylists hard at work all morning long, right, lara. >> that is right, michael. before we reveal their brand new 'dos we want to give you their journeys. jody started dyeing her hair red 15 years ago but says it has become totally unmanageable lately, too coarse, too thick and too curly. every day is a bad hair day. jodi needs help. >> i have enough hair on this head for about ten people. >> reporter: just recently turning 57 jodi is ready to take on a new look. >> i need your help.

31-year-old april kendall is also overcoming a lifelong battle with a condition in which stress causes her to pull out patches of her hair. >> i have bald spots here and i have a bald spot here. >> reporter: but she's looking forward to a bright spot on the horizon. getting married to her boyfriend greg and as they count down to the big day, april is counting on us for a new look and an easy to maintain style that will hide her hair loss. kim may grew up self-conscious about her weight but was always in love with her hair full of life just like her personality. but in 2011 kim suffered a stroke. prompting a weight loss journey that saw her lose 110 pounds. now at 41 and a mom of two after a strict diet and exercise, she is proud of her accomplishments. but her hair has suffered along the way. today it's uneven, dry, brittle and extremely thin. >> it's very hard. every day it's such a struggle when i look in the mirror at myself and even just try to

trial it. >> reporter: kim has left her pounds behind but wants to bid farewell to those bad hair days as well. >> all right. who is ready? who is ready for the big reveal? we are too. we got glam squad giovanni vaccaro and celebrity color ist carrie hillsong church. are you ready? >> kari, will you turn around. >> okay. what do you think? >> so big thumbs up from the audience. want to see how you look? >> drum roll, please. >> wow! [ applause ] >> and, kim, you said you wanted to be healthy's wanted to feel good about yourself. did we succeed? >> it looks amazing. thank you so much. >> what do you like the best about it?

>> the color and the cut, they both look wonderful. >> you feel great. >> i feel good. thank you. >> we got to ask the dream team how did you get this great look? what were your tips. >> with kim's hair she had a lot of dry damaged breakage on there and want to keep her off that pathway and kept it gentle and did a root gloss and blended in both and warmed up the ends giving her texture and that new modern lived in hair color that everybody is asking for. >> you look like a million bucks. >> yes, you do. >> congratulations. >> thank you. bad hair day gone. you're next. >> we're coming over to april now. and april you're getting married this march. you know what, april's fiance said she needs a new look. let's see the before shot. and let's turn her around. [ cheers and applause ] >> there you go. >> all right. so drum roll please, are you

ready. >> i am ready. >> mirror down here. >> how do you feel about your new look. >> i like it a lot. it's so cute. >> you look gorgeous. >> thank you. >> so with april's hair april is getting married. congratulations to her. we wanted to keep a modern tile for her so a little bit more volume and texture up top and go nice and cleaner on the sides so sort of a much more modern cool feel. >> yeah. do you feel like this is something you'll be able to keep up. >> definitely. >> especially on that honeymoon. >> get out of her business. [ laughter ] >> congratulations. >> thank you very much, april. >> enjoy. >> all right. heading over to jodi who is ready to leave the red hair behind. fresh new start. look at the before start and kari, give it a spin. >> whoa! [ applause ] all right, gio. >> wait. the audience seems to be thumbs

up. >> need a drum roll, please. [ drum roll ] >> and the mirror presentation please. >> oh, my god. [ applause ] >> whoa. >> you're really surprised. >> that is so different. it's so different but your hair is so silky. >> it's beautiful. thank you. thank you so much. >> of course. >> do you like being a brunette? >> yeah, it's going to take a little getting used to. >> how did you guys get this? >> a color story. >> today we saw she had a red that was very abrasive and it didn't -- really clashed with her skin tone so i wanted to give her a rich auburn, take advantage of her old red and compliment her beautiful brown eyes. and she also got some length. >> we took a bunch of length off. wanted to make sure it was healthy and easy for her to manage at home. something fresh and modern for her too. >> i think there are a lot of people especially as we head into fall who you might not get this but who might want to change their look, do low lights, do you have any advice?

i'll ask you because you're our color guru that you can give to our audience at home on how to do that and go so dramatic but safely and keep that wonderful shine and texture? >> i mean my advice is keep it simple and keep within the tones of your skin. so you want caramel golden skin tones to complement the fall. think of the trees and leaves and it just -- you know you want to not clash with your skin so that's the biggest thing with jodi's hair color. she had that bright red but we wanted to keep it brown that she has such a cool skin tone so we were able to keep it more auburn at the same time. >> we keep it golder if you wanted to keep it -- >> i do. >> what could i do for fall? >> you are not alone. you can get shine and gloss on there. >> uh-oh. give me some highlights. low light, whatever you want to call it. >> i bet there are a lot of women who feel like you don't want to blow dry it. if we want to and have thick gorgeous hair like that you're not going to go out, what is your advice when you want to go

au naturel. >> product choices vary. >> it's your friend. >> it's your friend with jodi's hair thicker. she need products that will tame her hair and weigh it down using a mask the way you would for your skin. use it for your hair once or twice a week for those with much thicker hair. >> great tips from the best in the biz. >> we're not done quite, though. we have two more makeovers coming up plus new england patriots julian edelman is here >> get ready to chow down! >> rachael: hey, who's going to talk? >> rachael's movie friends make their pick for the bes

[drumming] one time, in new orleans, well, before it was even founded, a french teenager, bienville, scared away a british warship with just a story. and great stories kept coming. like when the military came and built the boats to win the war. [warplane] some are tales told around crowded tables.... [streetcar rumble] and others are performances fit for the stage. stella! cause for three hundred years, great stories have started the same way. one time, in new orleans. [crowd applause]

all right, you know ha that >> reporter: you know what that music means, star wars, that music galaxy far, far away is getting closer. it's in your living room thanks to star wars challenges, that's what i have on my head, it's an augmented head set. we have disney deep into a jedi challenge. i'm going to put this on, but i want you to tell us about this, because people see this and wait a minute this could be in my living room. everybody at home will be seeing what tate and i will be seeing. you can have your own light saber and battle your own star war villains. >> >> reporter: not just that you get to be, oh, my goodness i

have somebody coming at me, i'm blocking it yes. you get a whole slew of villains. this is great because you're in your own room you can see your friends -- whoa [laughter]. it is in my world, virtual not a different world. >> right you're not cut off. >> reporter: i think i'm tickling him. it's probably better to watch. this is so much fun and everybody has a chance to get this as we get into the holidays. there's a lot more to do aside from fighting. there are a whole lot of concepts. >> reporter: i think everybody should do it, the great experience hits stores today go to the star wars jedi challenges website to get the details. i'm telling you i'm going to put it back on. let's get a check closer to home.

>> reporter: crazy stuff, nothing on storm tracker 6 live double scan, maybe a shower in the northern and western suburbs. otherwise, clouds and sun, warm 75. saturday, 06 showers at night. sunday, 67 dry for the eagles. michael, ben is going to come home and not know what i'm doing in the living room. >> i'll let you discuss that privately. right now we're joined by two-time super bowl champ and new england patriot receiver julian edelman who's famously made the catch to help win super bowl li. he's written a new memoir "relentless" about his underdog rise on one of the greatest supports teams in nfl history. welcome. it's great to have you and see you. you tore your acl in the preseason so you're missing this season. for people to relate how tough that is for you, you said this quote. watching the patriots play is like watching someone kiss your

girlfriend. why do you say that? >> i mean no one likes -- no one likes someone kiss your girlfriend. that's not a good feeling and you put so much time and effort in with the fellas and in the off-season, you know. to go through otas, training camp, training on your own and then the last preseason game you go out and blow your knee out and not get to play, i mean it's tough. so, you know, it's one of those things where i'm going to attack it like i attack anything else with the relentless mind-set and, you know, everyone's got a story and mine is still going. >> and the knee is coming along well. >> it's coming along getting better day by day. >> you say attack it with your mind-set. one of your teammates gave you the nickname energizer bunny. where does this relentlessness come from. >> i think it comes from hearing the word "no" growing up. you know, when i was younger i was never big enough, strong enough. fast enough.

there's always someone else on the team that was supposed to make it and it just created a huge chip on my shoulder which, you know, gave me that kind of relentless mind-set to try to prove people wrong and, you know, i used that in all aspects of my life so that's what this kind of book can about. it's about, you know, my story. everyone has a story just like your story, how you got to this beautiful "good morning america" host, doing all these great things off the field and your post career. you know, if my story can go out and help someone motivate them a little, you know -- >> i'm absolutely sure it will. it takes a lot. it takes a lot to get where you are and takes a lot to going a football player and a lot of drills and all these things. i hear your father was instrumental. he used to throw a football off the roof of a today yum. >> nah, so my dad was a little nuts. that's the least to say. we used to practice nonstop, you

know, he was a certified mechanic at 14. he didn't have a dad. and his life and goal was to give his kids the best opportunities that he could possibly do. and with that said, he used to come up with these insane drills so when i got drafted in the nfl my dad got a pair of sunglasses and he would tape one eye off so it messed with my depth perspective. he'd have my sister get little golf whiffle balls then he would get on top of the press box at the high school to punt to like get the football high enough and have my sister throw these little tennis balls at me to distract me with the glasses on to try to catch it. >> we don't suggest you try that with your chirp at home. >> yeah. >> but it worked. >> it worked. you know, he always tried to make the situation as hard as possible so when you go into the game, you know, your nerves are less tense and you come -- become more natural with it.

>> we have some young players here. we have william felix who wants to ask a question. big fan. what's your question, william? >> hi. i'm little. do you ever get nervous when you play against taller players? >> william, what's up, buddy. how you doing. >> good. >> good. i always had an older brother, so when he was 7 years older than me and we go in crazy details in the book so i always used to get beat up a lot. i was never afraid of, you know, bigger guys because of that. and what you got to do is you got to channel your inner like squirrel or tiger or something, buddy. just got to go in there and bite your lip and say, you know, i got pads on. we're going to be all right. because you got weight limits now, right? you'll be good. you just got to go and fight. >> you've shown that it doesn't matter as long as you have the fight. you can make it happen. he's a great example of that. >> exactly. >> for you and for all the kids out there and i love the

mustache you're growing for movember and book "relentless." make sure you get "relentless: a memoir" out now, julian edelman, everybody. coming up, the final reveals of our "gma" bad hair day makeovers. we'll be right back.

why are south jerseyans turning against steve sweeney? it's because sweeney's been exposed as a double dipping pension padder. caught spending campaign money on lavish dinners and fine cigars for his pals. investigated for being a lobbyist and a senator at the same time. sweeney voted to raise taxes 145 times while our economy continues to struggle. south jersey is a mess, and it's time to take out the trash. on november 7th, make a change. dump sweeney.

we welcome you back to "gma's" bad hair day makeover. we saw three amazing transformations, kim, april and jodi. those are the before shots and there they are with their new looks. [ cheers and applause ] now for our final reveals. noah and abby who by the way are boyfriend and girlfriend. they'll see each other with their new 'dos in a moment. remember this great man right here, giovanni, gio. >> hello. >> we saw you cut noah's hair. >> have it right here. >> right here.

yes. >> all right. so he hasn't seen it. do you want to spin him around? >> of course, of course. >> let's let him see it for himself for the first -- >> the audience first. [ cheers and applause ] >> yeah. all right. keep it going. >> keep it going. >> what do you think, man? >> i love it. >> wow. >> yes? >> yeah. oh, my goodness. >> it's different. you want to do that because of the fire academy. >> yes. >> i'm joining in january and i had to get it cut. >> oh, man, look. >> he's been growing his hair for four years and donating this to locks of love. [ applause ] >> that's a good face. he is so happy. >> and abby is here. you can't wait to see him. but we've got to spin you around. >> that's true. >> ah. [ applause ]

>> whoo. >> ready? all right. here we go. oh, my god. >> what do you think? [ applause ] oh, my god. i love it. oh, my. i don't even know what to say. oh, my -- it's so different. >> of course. >> thank you. [ applause ] >> going to make me cry. that's a great job, kari. you're about to make me cry. >> you've been dyeing her hair since you were what, 9. >> yes. >> so -- >> with abby it was a labor of love and she was just trying and we laughed and cried and took us some time. as you can see with the pink and the blues in her hair abby loved bold extreme hire color. with that we wanted to do a drastic change and keep it both in that bold extreme hair color so we took it dark, rich, edgy, on trend and it problems the contrast between her skin and her eyes so well.

she's so stylish. >> come on. we got to let them see each other. >> you want to see each other. >> all right. all right. >> i'm just going to move this open. there you two go. >> oh, my god. oh, my god. >> what do you think? what do you think? what do you think of each other? >> oh, my -- it looks so good. >> oh, my god. >> you know what, you got a new boyfriend now. you don't even recognize him. >> noah, what do you think of abby. >> i love this color. it's so different but i love it. oh, my god. >> i don't know what to say. >> you two are funny. >> come on, gio. come on, gio. look at the camera for everybody and let everybody see. kari. >> this is what it's all about making them feel good and bringing them confidence. >> get over there. ah, beautiful. gio, kari, thank you very much.
