2:08 am
>> exactly what we thought. right? >> she claims that her daughter was there, but not actually in the bed. tanning bed. what happened was the kindergartner was at school. she had apparently some sunburns. she was telling a friend of hers she went with her mother to the tanning bed. the tanning bed people denied she was there. the cops got called into the whole thing. apparently this woman is taken to jail. they took a mug shot of her. she doesn't look as dark in her mug shot. >> can we see the mug shot? >> we may not have it. >> maybe it's just bronzer. she's wearing a lot of bronzer. i don't know. i don't want to make fun of a potentially dangerous situation. it just always surprises me that people get these procedures and they think they look good. i'm not trying to be unkind. everybody goes -- that's not a good thing. am i wrong? sometimes you see somebody that
2:09 am
just went and got fish lips. they act like nothing happened! they've got a flounder on their face. you're supposed to act like there's nothing going on there. you can't take your eyes off it. >> we're doing a whole show on cosmetic surgery. >> remember cat woman? remember? she's actually a very, very, very nice lady. >> sure. >> but she's had so many procedures. she came to my house one time for -- for some fundraising thing or something. cassidy was little. you know, i -- cass was good. i mean, she was. but she was like -- you just can't believe -- kids are honest. >> i know. i think people do a little. and then a little more. and a little more. and a little more. pretty soon before you know it you've already gone over to the dark side. i did that when i started coloring my hair lighter. one day it was practically blond and i didn't know what happened. >> right. it's like little lies.
2:10 am
they just grow and grow until you're a big fat liar. i remember very well. one time we were having a christmas party in colorado. cass was little. we hired a piano player to come and play all the great christmas songs and everything. cass was -- the man was quite heavy. quite heavy. cass, she's like 3. goes over to him and she goes, you had too many hot dogs. right? >> oh. >> one of our friends heard her. she said, kathie, cassidy said something unkind. i took her aside. cassidy, that is unkind. you go back to that gentleman right now and you tell him you're sorry. she goes over to the man, she goes, i sorry you had too many hot dogs. kids are literal. >> they say exactly what they think. all right. congrats to this new a little baby that jessica simpson had. a baby girl. >> she was pregnant for four years. >> she gave birth to a little girl named maxwell drew johnson.
2:11 am

2:12 am
>> why do you think you got the blame? i was reading some blogs after her death. one said bobby brown killed whitney. not in a literal way but in a figurative way. another said bobby brown is responsible for getting her hooked on drugs. >> no. >> everyone seems to point the finger at you. >> no. >> and they say whitney was more of an innocent victim in this. >> no, that's not true. i didn't get high before i met whitney. >> on narcotics. >> on narcotics, no. no. i -- i smoked weed. i drank beer. but, no. i wasn't the one that got whitney on drugs. >> so this was a part of her life before -- >> way before, yes. >> -- you and she got together. >> way before. >> did you talk about it? did you worry about it? >> i worried about it when, you know, we first got together. until i tried it. and when i tried it, for some reason i have an addictive personality.
2:13 am
unexplainable. but, no, i wasn't the one that, you know, got her addicted to drugs or i'm not the reason she's gone. >> that's the question a lot of people have. >> you know what, this is a bobby we've never seen. he says he's been sober for quite a while. truth is we'll never know the truth, probably. >> right. >> nobody knows. lots of times -- i don't know. i don't know. i'm glad for his sobriety. i wish that whitney's situation had turned out differently. >> absolutely. matt's going to have more with bobby tomorrow. okay. so if you were home last night and you were watching "the voice" it was the big elimination round. if you didn't see it, you're going to play along with us. if you did you already know what happened. okay. team adam had a sing-off between two people. let's watch the two again. ♪ how you like me now, how you like me now, how you like me now, how you like me now ♪
