Daytime TV stars celebrate Halloween a day early
NEW YORK — Halloween hit the daytime talk shows a day early as TV personalities once again dressed up in costume.
NBC’s “Today” went with a “Star Wars” theme: Matt Lauer was Luke Skywalker and Meredith Vieira was Princess Leia.
“Live! with Regis and Kelly” chose a tongue-in-cheek reality show route. They showed off 20 costumes during the one hour show, although some segments were taped.
“The View” ladies showed their fangs with vampire costumes.
Rachael Ray dressed as Dorothy from “The Wizard of Oz.” Her guest Rosie O’Donnell was Glenda the Good Witch.
Wendy Williams did her best Dolly Parton impression with a big, blonde wig and cleavage to match.
Martha Stewart went all out with a “Where the Wild Things Are” theme. She dressed as Queen of the Wild Things.
