Today on 'Today': You Will Never Live Without the Magic That Is Katie Couric
Pull the tissue out of your bras and ready it somewhere near to your eyes: today, May 31, is Katie Couric's last day at the Today show. And by God, if they don't make you dry heave with sobs, some clip reel editor is going to lose a testicle. As of right now, they're running testimonials from 9-11 and Columbine victims who were touched by Katie's sensitivity during their old Today interviews; Couric is tearing as The Way We Were unabashedly plays in the background. Sarah McLachlan can't be far behind. Actually, no — it's just Kristin Chenowith is warbling about how she's been "changed for good." Music from Wicked? Subtle.
We'll be closely monitoring the estrogenfest for the rest of this morning; check back for updates and a stirring live-blog of Couric's final, vomit-flecked moments.
