Savannah Guthrie Wonders ‘What Are Veneers' When Asked Whether She Has a Set of Her Own
Even the most famous journalists can get stumped with a surprise question.
While celebrating the launch of 's Joy 101 app in New York City last month, faced an unexpected inquiry from a Parade reporter curious to know if the Today show coanchor has veneers.
"What is that, like, braces?" Guthrie, 53, replied. 'I did Invisalign. What are veneers?'
Veneers are described as coverings that fit over the front surfaces of your teeth. They can help make one's teeth look bigger, straighter, brighter or remove any space in between teeth.

When the reporter suggested that Guthrie would know if she had them, the NBC journalist agreed and clarified that she didn't have a set of her own.
'OK, I guess no. No, I don't have veneers,' she joked. 'I probably need them. Whatever they are. I gotta go, getting veneers.'
These days, Guthrie has other priorities in her life besides those of the dental variety, including bringing the news to millions of Americans via Today and striving to be a good mom to daughter Vale, 10, and son Charley, 8.
'I try really hard to be not just a calm mom, but a joyful mom and a fun mom,' she exclusively told Us Weekly in May at Kotb's launch party. 'But I'm also a real mom, so that means at about 8 on a Sunday night, I'm like, 'Let's go.''
If Guthrie comes close to reaching a breaking point while parenting, she tries to use it as a reminder for her kids that everyone has different emotions at different times.
'They need to see that we're human too,' she explained of moms. 'I don't think that we're supposed to present to them a stoic figure that's not real life. I don't think that's sending them the lesson. I think they need to know that mom and dad, we're human too. We're doing our best, but let's cooperate and get along. I try to strike that balance.'

One thing that made Guthrie smile recently was having the opportunity to reunite with her friend in the morning.
Last month, Kotb, 60, returned to the Today show to hang out with her TV family and give fans an update on her post-morning show life.
'She's our family. This is home for her,' Guthrie gushed to Us. 'It always will be home for her. It was just wonderful to have her there. But it's just exciting for our friends on the plaza to get to see her and everybody wants to know, how are you doing? All the things I've asked her over the last few months. We talk. We've had breakfast. We call. … Our viewers wanted to know that too.'

Crowds gather for Totton Carnival as it marks 120 years
Balloons, colourful ribbons and smiles from ear to ear were all on show at the Totton Carnival 2025 despite fears that it could be the last one. The Totton Carnival has been a staple of the town for around 120 years with floats from charities, schools and community groups being greeted by hundreds of people who lined the streets of Totton to cheer on the annual parade. Despite the fun at the event, coupled with the glorious sunshine, some were a little downbeat that this could be the last Totton Carnival after more than a century due to a lack of volunteers. Ann Page, 69, and Helen Chant, 56, from the Totton and Eling Community Association have been creating and designing their trailer and costumes for more than six weeks. Helen Chant, Charlotte Orchard and Ann Page (Image: NQ) Helen, a Totton resident for more than 25-years, said: "We have so many organisations taking part today - there are dance schools, scout groups, charities and community groups like ourselves. "We then parade through the town on the back of our trailers for all the residents to enjoy. "Our team have put a huge amount of work into today. We have handmade everything using what time we have after work and at the weekend." Floats paraded the Totton streets (Image: NQ) Ann has been taking part in the Totton carnival since she was four-years-old.

"Without the carnival we would loose our community spirit. Totton is a really big town and we need community events just like the carnival. it brings people together and puts smiles on faces." Gill Knighton is the chairman for the Totton Carnival and has had to do much of the work herself. Gill Knighton (Image: NQ) She said: "Its taken a whole year just to pull all of this together - this year marks 120 years - and if volunteers don't come forward this really could be the last one. "I'm looking for eight to 14 volunteers for our committee who can get in touch with us on our Facebook page. We have all sorts of different jobs that need doing and it would be devastating if we could not do this again." The floats and trailers started the carnival at the AFC Totton ground on Saturday, June 21, then paraded through Totton town centre and finished at Eling Recreational ground.

Scrubs Revival: Everything We Know About the Potential ABC Sequel Series
As the new Scrubs awaits an official series order at ABC, TVLine is rounding up everything we already know about the highly anticipated revival. The hospital-set comedy first bowed on NBC in 2001, and chronicled Dr. John Dorian's rise from intern to attending at Sacred Heart. When NBC announced that it would not renew the series beyond Season 7, ABC swooped in and picked up the show for what was conceived as an eighth and final season, complete with a series finale that creator Bill Lawrence first conceived of years prior. But ABC ultimately renewed Scrubs for Season 9, which was subtitled Med School and featured a mix of new and returning characters, with Kerry Bishé's med student Lucy Bennett installed as the quasi-spinoff's new narrator. More from TVLine Casting News: Andor Subs In for Kimmel, Connie Britton Joins Steve Carell Comedy and More Bad Monkey EP Bill Lawrence Offers Season 2 Update, Confirms 'Razor Girl' Adaptation On Hold in Favor of New Story With Same Cast Shrinking EP Tees Up Brett Goldstein and Cobie Smulders' Returns, Michael J. Fox and Jeff Daniels' Season 3 Arcs The original Scrubs ensemble consisted of Zach Braff (JD), Donald Faison (Turk), Sarah Chalke (Elliott), Judy Reyes (Carla), John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox), Neil Flynn (The Janitor) and Ken Jenkins (Kelso), while recurring players included Christa Miller (Jordan), Robert Maschio (The Todd) and the late Sam Lloyd (Ted). Season 9 additions included Bishé (Lucy), Michael Mosley (Drew), Dave Franco (Cole) and Eliza Coupe (Denise). So, what can we expect from Scrubs 2.0? And how soon can we expect to see the revival should ABC pull the trigger and order Season 10? Scroll down for a recap of all of TVLine's original reporting. The in-the-works Scrubs revival has locked in its leading man: TVLine reported on May 21 that Zach Braff closed his deal to reprise Dr. John Dorian (aka JD) in Season 10, which is still awaiting an official green light at the network. Attention now turns to closing deals with fellow legacy cast members Donald Faison (Turk) and Sarah Chalke (Elliot), who, along with Braff, are expected to return as series regulars. Additionally, TVLine hears that talks are underway with a number of OG Scrubs supporting players — Judy Reyes (Nurse Carla Espinosa) and John C. McGinley (Dr. Perry Cox), among them — to recur. 'My hope would be that we establish where everybody from [the original show] is,' series creator Bill Lawrence previously told TVLine, 'whether they're still with us at the hospital or not.' That also includes Neil Flynn (The Janitor) and Ken Jenkins (Dr. Bob Kelso): 'I hope Ken [who is now 84] is able to come play with us a little bit. He's a little older, but we love him so much.' 'The only bummer [about doing the revival], obviously, is that Sam Lloyd [who played hospital lawyer Ted Buckland] was such a huge part of the show, and he passed on [in 2020],' Lawrence has said. But other than Lloyd, you can expect to see all your favorites back. Lawrence has even said that, unlike Roseanne and Will & Grace, which found clever ways to erase their divisive finales from series canon once they were revived, Scrubs Season 10 will stay true to the developments of Season 9, which shifted gears (and locations) and focused on a quartet of newbies, including Kerry Bishé (Lucky Bennett), Michael Mosley (Drew Suffin), Dave Franco (Cole Aaronson) and Season 8 holdover Eliza Coupe (Denise Mahoney). That means the door is open for any (or all) of them to make guest appearances. 'I'm not against seeing those people, and I think it would be fun to have one of them zip by,' the EP said in December. 'But that [season], if you remember, was supposed to be a med school, and those people that were going through it would then go off into the world and land as physicians in places here, there, everywhere. What I think we will really be focusing on is a place where some of our core regulars' — AKA the legacy cast. There will, however, be a major change behind the scenes: Although Lawrence, who is under an overall agreement with Warner Bros., struck a deal that allows him to shepherd the 20th Television-produced revival, he will not serve as showrunner if Season 10 moves forward. Braff has said that the Scrubs revival will aim to capture the same humor and heart as the original run, but showcase a version of JD who has been 'beaten down by the system' over the last 15 years — an idea that Lawrence also expressed during a recent interview with TVLine: 'The hardest part is that Zach and Donald have aged,' the EP said with a laugh. 'People still have that affinity, and love, for that goofy youthfulness — it's why the T-Mobile commercials work so well. But if I saw two guys in their late 40s/early 50s doing 'World's Most Giant Doctor,' and carrying each other around all the time, I would go, 'What the f–k is going on,' you know? To see what that [friendship] looks like at their age, and [take] a comedic look at what medicine has become since those kids started out as interns, and see how our people would look at it, deal with it, and try to remain optimistic,' is their main objective. 'I will tell you that the people I based the original characters on, like the real JD [Dr. Jonathan Doris], is still the medical advisor on the show, and still a cardiologist and a heart surgeon in L.A.,' Lawrence revealed. 'But the real Elliot [Doris' wife, Dr. Dolly Klock] is no longer in medicine because it got to be too much for her, and she wanted to do other things that are equally as philanthropic. She does this education thing for adolescents and kids now. So, to look at how the system not only changed, but how it has beaten some of these people down, and how they retain their optimism with a new wave of young characters, has really been fun.' Meanwhile, unlike Season 9, which saw JD pass the proverbial torch to a new protagonist, Lucy, a hypothetical 10th season will be told exclusively from Dr. Dorian's perspective, and the story will 'start with JD and Turk.' If ABC hands a series order to Scrubs 2.0, it could premiere as soon as midseason/early 2026.
