wants, but these days he answers to his almost 2-year-old son eric, who demands a lot of his father's time. but simon loves every minute of it. and now as eric gets older simon has discovered that the apple of his eye hasn't fallen far from his tree. >> i saw your son earlier. the guy is a phenomenal swimmer. >> he's like a fish. >> he is the best swimmer i've ever seen in my life. >> he's like a fish. >> they let him go, and what is it, 2? >> 21 months. >> what other ways is he overachieving? >> he's talking a lot. i didn't realize, actually, because i've never had a son before, but actually they start turning into you. which is a bit scary. >> in what ways is he -- >> he just never stops talking. >> who would have thought when we met simon cowell 13 years ago that the toughest judge on "american idol" would turn into a gushing daddy? >> he's got his own opinions. when he wants something, he's quite demanding. he walks into my bedroom every

day and says "guk," which means jungle book. i'm like eric, i've watched it 5,000 times with you. and then he says "an"anna" whic means frozen. and i say i i can't watch that again. guk then. >> opinionated, decisive, hmm. can't imagine where little eric might get that from. >> how has he changed you? are you a softer guy? >> i've always liked kids to be honest with you. and i've been good with kids when they can talk. i actually said in an interview recently when he was about 6 months old i was thinking why runt talking, why aren't you talking now? he obviously couldn't understand a word i was saying. and then one day it all changes. >> you realized you can do this. >> absolutely. >> simon says learning to be a dad was easier than he expected. >> you know, you kind of let your instincts kick, in i guess. and obviously you're very protective right from the

beginning. and then like said they've become a bit like you and he's funny. i wish he could just come to work with me. >> he will. he's the heir to the dynasty, is he not? >> i definitely want him to do what i'm doing, yeah. and it would be fun teaching him that. and he loves music. ♪ i'll show you justin bieber enjoying the beauty of iceland in his new music video "i'll show you" the new single off his new album "purpose." but now in more of billy's exclusive interview justin opens up about his first real love, selena gomez. >> let's talk about some of the songs here. "sorry." ♪ to say sorry ♪ i'm missing more than just your body ♪ songs about your love life. seems a lot of songs about love and significant others. how much of this is inspired by selena? >> a lot of, it dude. a lot of it. >> how many songs? >> like three.

so now everyone's going to be listening, is this one about selena? is this one about selena? >> she was your first real love. >> first real love, yeah. >> you talked about living together. >> moved in with her at a young age. it was tough, man. >> how hard was it to get over that? >> it was really tough. i don't know if i'm still over it yet. i think that i'm definitely like in another place, and i think we've definitely went our separate ways, and i love her and i want it to be awesome. but there's things that remind me of her and -- yeah. that was my first real love. >> you think maybe you met her too early? >> yeah, i wrote a song, actually, didn't make the album, but it was called "if i would have met you in five years." and she's like, how true is that. how many people go through life and end up meeting someone and it feels so right but it's just the wrong time. so many people can relate to that. >> how much of you hopes she doesn't find anybody serious? >> you know, it always sucks

when you see someone you love with someone else. but i just want her to be happy honestly. i just want her to be happy. >> do you still talk? ever pick up the phone and just say hey, what are you doing, and chat for a few minutes or -- >> yeah. she's someone i love dearly, dude, and i'm never going to stop loving her. i'm never going to stop checking in on her. i don't think relationships, if you end a relationship you should end that. unless it was super toxic and you guys were hurting each other physically or mentally. but we always respected each other and we still respect each other. >> why did you break up? it sounds like it's a good connection. >> yeah. i think we're young and there's things that we did and things that we said to each other that were just kind of like -- we broke some barriers. things you just don't say to someone you love or do to someone you love. >> out of immaturity or -- >> immaturity and out of selfishness and out of just being human, dude. that's it. >> justin's upcoming album "purpose" reflects how hard two worked to rekindle the love.

as for what's next for them, justin's uncertain. it doesn't seem to rule out reconciliation. >> i don't know what happens -- what's going to happen in the future. i think we've both got to do some soul searching ourselves and figure out ourselves before we can try to figure out each we can try to figure out each other. thank you so much. did you say honey? hey, try some? mmm that is tasty. is it real? of course... are you? nope animated you know i'm always looking for real honey for honey nut cheerios well you've come to the right place. great, mind if i have another taste? not at all mmm you're all right bud? never better i don't know if he likes that. yeah part of the complete breakfast

and then it just got to the point i was looking in the mirror, i was so unhappy, felt so lonely, so alone, i was like

i can't trust anybody. so i started just acting out. >> self-destructing a little bit? >> yeah. just feeling like i was invincible. >> which explains why justin ran into trouble. but shortly after his august 2014 brush with the law in which he was charged with dangerous driving and assault justin began to turn his life around. now, last thanksgiving he took his first major step to reconnect with his faith and his purpose in life. so it's no coincidence that his new album is titled "purpose." and now justin takes billy to that pivotal turning point in his life. >> something clicked. i don't know. one morning something clicked, and i'm like yo, this is not me. there's something i have to do to like -- so i reached out to some people i really know care about me, and they brought me in and i stayed with their family for a couple months. and literally just did regular stuff, hung out with their family, ate dinner with them. >> justin sought refuge with his friend and spiritual adviser carl lentz, who is the pastor of

the hill song church in new york. justin has always been open about his christian faith. and he says this time out from his life helped bring a sense of humbleness back. >> he put his arms around you. what did he tell you? >> put his arms around me. and the way he lives his life is really what he talks about. he's not like hey, do this and do this. like when i go to his home i feel really loved. >> it's not your last screw-up, whatever it was. you're 21 years old. >> i'm going to keep messing up. >> so what's the outlook -- you forgive yourself and -- >> yeah. but you have to give it all you've got. if you're not giving it all you've got you're just cheating yourself. if you're giving it all you've got and you mess up that's life, dude. things are going to happen. >> going forward, it's a renewed perspective -- >> year, it's a renewed perspective on people, on life, on judgment, on being secure in yourself. >> justin's passion extends beyond the music. one thing many people don't know about him. justin has granted more wishes through the make-a-wish foundation than any other

musician. >> you get yourself invested in a lot of children's lives. a girl avalona ralph, you spent time with her in 2012. she was battling terrible brain cancer. so many kids you touch and if they lose this battle how hard is it to separate? >> it's really hard. that was one of the hardest things i think i ever went through-s when avalona passed away. and we spent so much time together laughing and just -- yeah, dude, it was hard. but you know you were able to make a difference in their life and make them smile. so i'm happy to know she's in an awesome place right now. >> so much of it is low pro that you do it. >> yeah. >> some things eventually become public. people find out. but how important is it to you -- does that balance the fame? does that make sense of the life? >> it makes everything worth it in the end. like being able to just sit down with those kids and just see them smile and really make that

difference in their life is like -- there's nothing like it. you walk away feeling so good about yourself, too. so it's a win-win. >> very nice to see that side of justin. all right. he has also been amping up his style as well. case in point, this all-red look at the mtv europe music awards in october. and joining me now to talk about the rest of the best rock and roll fashion of the year is our style producer anthony ramos. >> liz, how are you? okay. we're going to talk about all the best and wildest moments from the pop stars, the rock stars, everyone we love. let's start with taylor swift at the grammys. this was one of her best looks of all time. it's by elie saab. i love this dress. she was dressed like a daydream. get it? >> i get it. >> but look at the shades of color. and with this dress we officially said good-bye to the pep lum and welcome the skirt within a skirt or some call it's mullet dress. >> i call it the mullet dress. >> but look at those legs. those are the star of the show.

and a pop of collar with the zenadi heels. this one really was for the taylor swift record book style file for sure. >> really? here's my thing. i've never been a fan of a mullet and it doesn't start with dresses with me either. >> i love it. >> in august it was all about the mtv vmas and the host of the night was miley cyrus. she definitely brought her wild style sense to the show starting with the red carpet. >> all eyes were on miley. she really did everything on stage. but the red carpet, wow. i don't even know what to say about this. it was a custom ensemble by versace. it's definitely not a dress. it's a harness and kind of a chandelier. >> i was going to say this feels like something i should hang over my dining room table. >> a lot of skin but no wardrobe malfunction. so props there. i call this kind of sexy alien warrior. there was a picture of her on instagram that morning and she was naked of course and saying what aim going to wear? she found something but not very much. >> very madonna. >> yes. >> meanwhile, jennifer lopez will be starting her vegas

residency "all i have" on january 20th. mark your calendars. planet hollywood resort and casino. me and anthony have booked our flight. and in may at the billboard music awards she was channeling her inner showgirl. >> you and i were both there for that and she hit the carpet and you and i were in total awe. she's like vegas, i am here, i am a show girl. we know j. lo loves a sheer beaded body gone dress. but this took it to the next level. in a really good way. it's by sharbell zoe. it was vegas. it's hot. look at those abs. we know she works out. extra long -- >> you've got to have a body to work this dress. >> totally. no beer bellies. but the hair was perfect. and you know, absolute vegas showgirl. she just needs a fur boa or something. >> something. she looks amazing. i can't wait for all her wardrobe changes. miranda lambert is the reigning queen of country. for her first post-split from

blake shelton she went simple. >> all eyes were on miranda and blake too. but this -- she really has improved her style i think so much. kind of toned down streamlining looks including this one which was by versace. everyone wanted to call this a revenge dress. i just call it a really elegant dress. she looks amazing. look at the body. and of course everyone was quick to point out the pink hair, a little reminiscent of gwen stefani. we don't know if that's on purpose -- >> i think it's reminiscent of a 16-year-old. not a fan of the color hair. thank you. >> thank you. now to more from billy's interview with simon cowell. simon helped create "america's got talent" and now he has signed on as a judge for the 11th season next summer. simon has an eye for talent like no other and he loves it. in addition to his new gig on agt he's still on "britain's got talent" and "uk x factor." why isn't two shows enough? clearly simon can't stand being off u.s. television. >> how much do you miss being on tv in america? >> i was lucky. i always had a great time,

billy, to be honest with you. we had a lot of fun doing with it. importantly, we found a lot of really good people along the way. >> who would be the top three acts, all shows combined, all territories combined, that you have sort of helped send out into the world? what's her name. the beautiful singer. what was her name? the lady -- boyle. susan. i love susan. >> susan i think has to be one of them. because she was the most unlikely star. and i think that really kind of defined what the show was about. susan boyle turned up for "the voice," i'm not sure they would have embraced her in the same ways that we do. kelly clarkson really played an important role as well. because without kelly clarkson winning "american idol" it wouldn't have been as big as it was. having a great singer win year one we got really lucky that she decided to turn up on our show. and one direction, of course. >> and one direction, who's doing huge business now. >> yeah. >> people were floored when zain

left. did you have wind of what was going on or did this blindside you as the mentor? >> i knew there was an issue, yeah. i knew he wasn't particularly happy. >> does it matter? >> no. the truth is no. i was unhappy at the time because all of us were suddenly told he's leaving. i thought it was too soon. you know, i think he should have stuck it out. but he had his own reasons. ♪ let's start right now >> the one d music video released on wednesday called "perfect" had many including us speculating it's a response to taylor swift's style, rumored to be about dating harry styles. >> that song "perfect" is that about taylor swift? come on, spill the beans. between us adults. >> i'm telling you, no one told me it was about taylor. i think people might infer it. but i was never told that, no. i don't know where this came from. genuinely. i read about it the other day. and i thought nobody told me that.

i don't think so. but before one direction and taylor swift alanis morissette wrote the ultimate angry break-up song that changed the course of music. so is alanis finally ready reveal who "you oughta know" is about? find out next.

our relationship has shifted from, you know, mom telling him what to do and being able to control certain aspects to just being a voice. >> justin bieber's mother patti

mallet in 2013 during her son's difficult days. now, justin admits he drifted from mom during that period because he was ashamed. he's back on track now, but there's still a bad boy exterior. with over 30 hours of artwork on his body including the title of his new album "purpose." now, justin's tattoos each have their own story. and now justin shows billy one particular tat that keeps a watchful eye on him. >> what's your favorite one? >> my favorite one out of all these, the detail in the eye. my mom's eye right here. >> that's your mom's eye. >> that's my mom's eye. so she sees me. no, she doesn't. >> when do you not want her to see you? >> man. probably most of the time. ♪ what do you mean ♪ hey ♪ >> justin's first single off "purpose" "what do you mean" was his first number one on billboard's hot 100. before he released that song he was featured on skrillex and dip lowe's "where are you now." the video has 260 million views

much. people are getting tired of it. i think. i'm getting tired of it. >> as for his own style of music right now, it's exactly where he wants it to be. >> in the past i had people say record this song, don't do this. and now like this is me. and i feel like i'm more passionate and people can tell the authenticity and it just feels right. ♪ yeah ♪ it's not fair ♪ to deny me >> alains mornis morissette's career-defining 1999 album "jagged little pill" just celebrated its 25th anniversary. the lead single quickly became an anthem for female empowerment and like carly simon's "sure you're so vain" 23 years earlier got us wondering who the song is about. our series anatomy of a song tackles the mysteries with someone who ought to know, alanis herself. but first we start at the

gosling, christian bale. they play financiers who predicted the housing market that led to the great recession from a few years ago and how they made a ton of money from it. the early buzz is fantastic. and it could be another great of the moment kind of movie like remember "up in the air" with george clooney. looking forward to that. >> a lot of eye candy in that film. jennifer lawrence is kicking off the holiday season with the last "hunger games." and it looks like she might end with one of the year's best movies. >> that would be joy. i mean, "hunger games" is going to make a killing at the box office. but the movie i'm looking forward to is "joy." lawrence plays the matriarch of a family and a business dynasty and it's like an epic coming of age story involving betrayal, loss of innocence. the real kicker here is that it's from david o. russell, who directed jennifer lawrence to her oscar-winning performance in "silver linings playbook." and she gets to co-star with bradley cooper for the fourth time. >> she's like the new julia roberts. >> she's -- yeah. she really is. >> wow. and director quentin tarantino, who i love, is back with his ninth movie "the hateful 8."

>> the -- ninth movie, "the hateful 8." nothing says christmas day like a violent quentin tarantino film. this seems leek a real kicker. takes place after the civil war. a bunch of bounty hunters find shelter in a cabin in wyoming during a blizzard. there's going to be a lot of violence, lot of great dialogue and amazing performances i'm sure from samuel l. jackson, kurt russell, jennifer jason leigh and bruce dern. >> and leonardo dicaprio stars in "the reverent." >> "reve nant." >> and the oscar-winning director from last year's with the birdman quochlt. >> alejandro inarritu returns. cap roe plays a frontiersman who sets out on a path of vengeance against those who left him for dead. dicaprio is an amazing actor. what's a guy got to do to win an academy award? he should have won one for "the wolf of wall street." maybe this will be the one. and i am looking forward to it. >> it's like a braveheart. >> it's going to be epic.

[screams] yeah, we are in need of space. we lived here since october 2013. we really don't have any entertainment space.

it would be awesome if we have had another room to play in. steven: the outside sunporch, it's a dismal, dismal space. robin: my nickname for the sunroom is useless. steven: i describe it as a concrete floor with popsicle sticks for walls. [laughs] yeah, that's good. we're gonna need george to the rescue for brooke, more like, because-- steven: i would like to see the space fixed and utilized for our puppies and for our children. it is very difficult, because we have to make sure the bills are paid as well as having our kids and our dogs needs met first. steven: so it would be nice to have an open space, a warm space that they can relax and play, one that says home. all right, surprise time! you know, years from now we can look back and see how

much joy that it will bring. it really, really makes a tremendous difference to us. it would definitely take a lot of stress off their backs and my back. stop, what do you guys do in your bedroom, huh? george: uh-oh. here's somebody. maybe they know i'm here. morning, steve! oh, george, it's great to see you! -how's it going, man? -it's great to see you. you must be junior, what's up? yeah, no, my pleasure. and you must be robin. oh, hi, oh, wow! brooke, thanks for that kiss. and these are the puppies and you must be caitlyn! your hands are full is what you got. yeah, you got a little bit of everything, i know. you got toddlers, teenagers, puppies, and a house that needs some fixing up. yeah. i understand you guys obviously had to put some home improvement projects on the back burner, and i'm here to take those off the back burner and put them right in the oven and get them done, what do you say? we're here to rescue you. i was in shock. it's been a struggle here at the house since we've been here. this is the best thing that could happen. just to have an area for us and the kids and the dogs.

it's gonna be amazing. i would love to see what we're dealing with now that i met the family. i love the kids, the dogs. where are you? what? wait. hey brooke, where are you going? so it's chaos, but it was good chaos. well, it's going to be great to have my own space, and brooke's gonna have her own space in the sunroom. i can't wait. george: now that i met the family, i got to get my experts in here so i can figure out how to best help them. so welcome to what i guess could be considered a screened-in porch maybe at best. yeah. george: yeah. this one needs a little help, george. well, i'll be honest with you. it's a rough space. it's a mess. because the house has been added on to so many times, and because it hasn't been done that great in quality construction, you never know what you're gonna find. the bottom line here is that this structure is not conducive to living space. right. pull out this slab, get rid of these concrete steps, put proper footing in, a proper foundation and a proper frame. this is a take it down and do it over.

george: what about design-wise? how are we gonna make this all flow? i think that we should get rid of that door, give us more floor space in here, probably going that way. right, and we'll keep the outside door to give them access now, so they'll still be able to get access to the rear yard. and the dogs will need to be able to get out. we almost feel like we are below the ground level so. absolutely. i'm sure they're getting tons of water in here. when you look out the door, when the grass is higher than the floor you're standing on, that's a problem. the best way to determine what we need to do is to take a look outside. announcer: george to the rescue is sponsored in part by 3m. for more information about 3m products or to find a retailer near you, go to 3m.com.

we're on a hill. it's flowing right at the house. how are we gonna resolve that? well, the most important thing we need to do here is establish a proper foundation. once we raise the foundation up to where it should be, we can then make a nice swale to direct the water around the house. looking at the house structurally, if we tear off the existing porch

dug, how is that going to affect the rooflines and how well it comes back together? the main house has a gable. what we probably do is take from that existing right-hand side of the gable and just let the roof continue up to a ridge and then come back down. it's going to make it look like it has always been here. aha, so you can much more aesthetically pleasing. a dry, structurally sound home. i draw a beautiful room, that's the plan. that's what it's all about. we're going to hit the project hard and i've got everybody ready. all right, team, demolition, nothing makes me happier than taking something apart, but safety's always got to come first. so we got hard hats. we got glasses. we got ear protection, respirators. -do i get one too? -you got your glasses? -yes, sir. -here's your hard hat. so ken, what's the game plan, we're ripping this roof off, starting from scratch, right? we're gonna fold it up like a dixie cup and throw it in the truck. -i like the sound of that. all right. can i drive? sure, absolutely. all right! i like to say i know enough to be dangerous. so i'm gonna need you to talk me through this. so if you have, do you got insurance? what i even tell my kids when i taught them how to run the excavator, hands in will lift it up and pull

things in, and hands out will put things down and push things away. up. down. there we go. side to side. there's really nothing better than demo day, smashing things, i'm lester holt thanks for joining us. . this sunday morning, a special edition of "meet the press." terror in paris. france's 9/11. how did it happen? what signs did french intelligence miss? do we need a new way to confront isis? is there a risk of it reaching the united states? kel talk to top government officials anden expert on terrorism. plus, terror in the campaign. the democrats debated last night and jeb bush joins us this morning. do the current
