Last week on the Today Show, Kathie Lee Gifford and her co-host Hoda Kotb bravely unveiled themselves and hosted the entire show without makeup.
“This is us!” said Gifford.
“Let’s prove it, Hodawoman!” said Kathie Lee, as they wiped their faces off with cloths for the cameras.
Kathie Lee said that without makeup, “I feel vulnerable.” And with makeup, “I feel like myself. Confident.”
In solidartiy, NBC anchors Meredith Vieira, Ann Curry and Natalie Morales came on the show in taped segments with no makeup.

They are beautiful both with and without makeup. My wish is that women would feel equally confident without makeup. No need to “hide” behind a mask of color. Just be yourselves!
