Savannah Guthrie Warns Craig Melvin About His Late Nights: ‘Won’t Last'
When it comes to anchoring a morning news show, one thing is certain — your wake-up call is well before the sun rises.
And as a result, Savannah Guthrie has a stern warning for her new Today coanchor Craig Melvin.
Prior to joining Today six years ago, he was an evening news anchor for WIS in Columbia, South Carolina, and a weekend anchor for WRC in Washington, D.C. in 2008, where he met his wife, sports reporter Lindsay Czarniak.
The husband and wife share a mutually exclusive love of sports.
As a result, Melvin admitted to staying up last night to watch the College National Championship instead of going to bed in preparation for his 3:45 a.m. call time.
Craig Melvin Asked Hoda Kotb If She Was Being Forced Out of 'Today' Role
Guthrie was quick to scold Melvin for his choices.
“I was up late last night,” Melvin told Guthrie on Tuesday, January 21, revealing he “had to see if the Ohio State Buckeyes could vanquish their opponents” the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, which they did 34-23.
“Again? You know this is a marathon, not a sprint. If you stay up every night watching football and getting up early, this cannot last,” Guthrie warned Melvin.
Melvin agreed with his coanchor, admitting he’s “gonna have to recondition myself.”
Melvin has been anchoring the first hour of the Today show since January 13. However, he’s been a staple during the third hour of the show for the last several years.
In an interview with Parade, Melvin recalled how he learned about Hoda Kotb’s decision to step away from the anchor desk in order to spend more time with her daughters and her mom.
“My dressing room is two over from hers, and she knocks on my door one morning, which was unusual. And she’s like, ‘You have a moment?’ She came in, and she said, ‘I just wanted to tell you something. I’m leaving.’”
Hoda Kotb Sends Shout-Out to 'Today' Show Replacement Craig Melvin
Admitting that “no one leaves these jobs on their own,” he said he first questioned if Kotb was “sick.” When she assured him she was fine and simply wanted to leave her post while she was “on top,” Melvin pressed harder.
“I was like, ‘Are they forcing you out?’ She’s like, ‘No Craig, I’m OK. I’m leaving.’ I was legit stunned, so much so that after she left, I went back to her dressing room, and I was like, ‘Are you sure you’re OK?’ It takes a certain kind of courage to leave anything when you’re at the height of your game.”

Jason Aldean Reacts to Carrie Underwood’s Inauguration Performance
Jason Aldean believes Carrie Underwood deserves a round of applause for her latest performance.
“First of all, it’s a hard song to do anyway, and when you’re supposed to be singing to a track and that’s what gives you pitch reference for the song,” Aldean, 47, shared on the Tuesday, January 21, episode of Fox & Friends. “To not have that, for her to just kinda say, ‘All right, listen, we’ll go.’ That’s a big move and that’s a pro move on her part, so I thought it was great.”
On Monday, January 20, Underwood, 41, sang “America the Beautiful” during President Donald Trump’s second inauguration.
During the live performance, the American Idol winner — who wore an Opificio Modenese dress and INGILIZ heels for the occasion — experienced a technical glitch. She quickly offered to sing a capella for the crowd gathered inside the U.S. Capitol building.
Carrie Underwood Through the Years: From ‘Idol’ to Country Star and Mom
“I love our country and am honored to have been asked to sing at the inauguration and to be a small part of this historic event,” Underwood said in a statement after accepting the gig. “I am humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future.”
Underwood wasn’t the only country singer to perform during Trump’s presidential inauguration.
Aldean was given the opportunity to perform at the Liberty Ball, geared toward the president’s supporters.
“Everytime I think I’ve done it all …This was a whole different ball game for me,” Aldean shared on Fox News about the opportunity. “It was just a huge honor to be there and be part of that night. It just kind of feels electric. Everybody is just excited for this new chapter of where we are headed.”
Jason’s wife, Brittany Aldean, also shared her thoughts on the evening in a social media post.
Jason and Brittany Aldean’s Relationship Timeline
“INAUGURATION NIGHT,” she wrote via Instagram on Monday. “What a ride it’s been! Today has made all the scrutiny worth it. Wouldn’t change a thing.”
Looking ahead, Jason is excited to get back on a tour bus and perform for his fans. On Tuesday, the country singer announced his Full Throttle Tour powered by Patriot Mobile will kick off on May 23 at Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.
“We’re excited,” he shared on Fox & Friends about the nearly 30-city tour. “We’re just looking for another great year on the road.”
5 Hot Stories: Justin Bieber Unfollows Hailey, Food Influencer Dead at 39
Justin Bieber cleared the air after he was seemingly caught unfollowing Hailey Bieber on Instagram. Us Weekly confirmed on Tuesday, January 21, that the 30-year-old pop star was no longer keeping up with his wife on the social media platform, but she appeared to still be following Justin. Hours later, Justin addressed the situation via his Instagram Story. “Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife. S— is getting suss out here,” he wrote. As fans wondered whether the social media activity was a sign of trouble in paradise for the couple — who exchanged vows in 2018 and welcomed their first baby, a son, last year — Justin quieted the speculation even further by sharing a series of romantic photos with Hailey from a recent winter getaway. In one pic, the pair gazed lovingly at one another while sitting at a dinner table. Another snap showed Justin and Hailey suited up for the snow with skis in the background.

Lisa Loeb Has Tried Every High-End Lipstick, and This $3 Pick Is Still Her Favorite
Hollywood’s elite has access to the most renowned — and expensive — beauty products. Because of this, you might think that celebrities swear by unattainable makeup and skincare brands. Well, that’s not always the case. Take singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb, for example. Her all-time favorite lipstick is just $3 at Amazon.
Loeb discovered the Wet n Wild Mega Last Matte Lip Color by total accident. During a television shoot, Loeb’s makeup artist at the time forgot her professional kit, so she picked up a few items at the drugstore — including this affordable lipstick.
“It’s actually one of my favorite lipsticks,” she explains to The Strategist. “It’s a matte lipstick, which lasts really well. It creates the illusion of whatever lip shape you want, then if you want to add gloss on top of that to change the color slightly — to make it more pink or more beige, for example — you can do that.”
While Wet n Wild offers this lipstick in a variety of hues, Loeb’s go-to is ‘bare it all.’ “It’s a great neutral color you can use underneath other lipsticks. And it’s a drugstore lipstick, so it’s very inexpensive,” Loeb says.
As a beauty writer, this is the most affordable lipstick I’ve ever seen — yet the formula is high quality. The lipstick is enriched with hyaluronic acid, as well as vitamin A and E for boosted moisture, meaning your lips stay hydrated with each swipe. Plus, the pigment is pretty impressive. Reviewers say it only takes one layer for high color payoff, whether you go with a nude or bold hue.
Bethenny Frankel's Favorite Lipstick Is a No. 1 Bestseller on Amazon — Only $8!
Several happy shoppers agree ‘bare it all’ is the best color. “I love this shade, and I have given this lipstick as a gift to so many of my friends,” one five-star reviewer writes. “It works with every complexion! They have updated the packaging so it’s even cute to look at.”
Whenever Loeb is running low, she immediately goes to the drugstore to pick up another tube . . . and to meditate. “It’s very relaxing for me to go to the drugstore. That’s one of the things I do. I try to meditate, but sometimes the best meditation is just wandering around a drugstore and looking at the shelves,” she jokes. “This [lipstick] was such a surprise because I like using a lot of different brands of makeup from Lancôme to Mac.”
Get the Wet n Wild Mega Last Matte Lip Color delivered directly to your door when you shop on Amazon! At this price, we’re buying one in every color.

Judi Dench Says She Can't Attend Public Events Alone: I 'Have No Eyesight'
Judi Dench’s vision loss has affected all aspects of her life, and has limited her ability to attend public events.
“I’m always nervous before going to something,” the Oscar winner, 90, shared on a recent episode of Trinny Woodall’s “Fearless” podcast, noting that someone always has to “be with me” on red carpets because of her vision loss. “I’m not good at that at all. Not at all. Nor would I be now. And fortunately, I don’t have to be now,” she stated, joking that she has “no eyesight.”
She added: “You might trip up.”
Dench announced she was diagnosed with macular degeneration in 2012. According to the Mayo Clinic, the condition is a common form of vision loss in people over the age of 50.
Judi Dench Says Her Pet Parrot Calls Her a ‘Slut’
“In response to the numerous articles in the media concerning my eye condition – macular degeneration – I do not wish for this to be overblown,” she said in a statement to Reuters at the time. “This condition is something that thousands and thousands of people all over the world are having to contend with. It’s something that I have learnt to cope with and adapt to – and it will not lead to blindness.”
The celebrated British actress has continued to be candid about her eyesight struggles over the years, stating at a 2021 online event for the Vision Foundation that she had to adapt how she prepares for roles because of her condition.
“You find a way of just getting about and getting over the things that you find very difficult,” Dench explained, per The Guardian. “I’ve had to find another way of learning lines and things, which is having great friends of mine repeat them to me over and over and over again. So I have to learn through repetition, and I just hope that people won’t notice too much if all the lines are completely hopeless!”
During a February 2023 appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Dench revealed it had “become impossible” for her to read scripts. “And because I have a photographic memory, I need to find a machine that not only teaches me my lines but also tells me where they appear on the page,” she said. Dench noted that she once found it “very easy to learn lines and remember them,” and could “do the whole of Twelfth Night right now.”
Dench is one of many celebs who have endured challenges with their vision. Earlier this month, Elton John poked fun at his vision loss while presenting the award for Best Original Score, Motion Picture, at the 2025 Golden Globes with Brandi Carlile.
Judi Dench Accidentally FaceTimed Her Friend While Naked: 'Poor' Guy
“I don’t know if you know, but there’s been a lot of stories going on around about my recursive eyesight. I just wanted to reassure everybody that it’s not as bad as it seems,” he said on stage before joking, “I’m so pleased to be here with my cohost, Rihanna.”
John, 77, revealed he was recovering from a “severe eye infection” in September 2024 that left him with “limited vision in one eye.” That November, he told Good Morning America he “can’t see anything” in his right eye as a result of the illness.
Justin Bieber Posts 'Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe' After Wife Hailey IG Drama
Justin Bieber is seemingly unbothered after this morning’s debacle regarding his wife, Hailey Bieber, and an Instagram unfollow.
Justin, 30, shared a selfie via Instagram Stories on Tuesday, January 21, set to the song “Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe” by Kendrick Lamar. Fans were quick to speculate that Justin was reacting to news from earlier that same day, when he apparently unfollowed Hailey, 28, on Instagram.
“Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife,” he wrote in an Instagram statement, which has since been deleted. “S— is getting suss out here.”
Us Weekly confirmed on Tuesday morning that Justin was no longer following Hailey on the social media platform, but she still followed him on the app.
The apparent unfollow and speculation the couple’s relationship was on the rocks came as a shock to fans. Just hours earlier, Justin had shared a sweet social media tribute to his wife.
“The greatest woman I have and will ever know,” the singer captioned a series of photos on Monday, January 20, from what appeared to be a winter getaway.
Justin Bieber Is Heartbroken Over Hailey's Emotional Struggles: Details
After the Instagram drama on Tuesday, Justin shared more photos from the vacation, seemingly to quiet the doubters.
One rather romantic black-and-white image showed Justin and Hailey sitting across from each other at a dining table. The couple were smiling at each other, looking so in love. A second image showed them both dressed in winter gear before presumably hitting the slopes.
Justin and Hailey secretly tied the knot in a New York City courthouse in September 2018. The following year, they hosted a larger wedding ceremony. The duo announced in May 2024 that they were gearing up to become first-time parents. Hailey gave birth to their son, Jack Blues, in August of that year.
“It’s total bliss for the two of them,” a source told Us following Jack’s birth, noting that Hailey is “enjoying and savoring these moments being a new mom.”
Did Hailey Bieber Subtly Address Speculation About Marriage Trouble?
The Rhode Beauty founder is “over the moon and in mom zone,” the insider added, adding that she is “completely focused on the health of the baby.”
A second source told Us earlier this month that there was a “total shift” in Justin and Hailey’s marriage after they renewed their vows this past May. The insider noted that baby Jack’s birth has “truly brought them so much happiness and a renewed bond.”
Justin is “obsessed” with their newborn, the source continued, calling the singer a “really good dad.” Hailey’s “main priority is being a mom right now,” the insider added.
Simone Biles Takes Her Birkin For a Spin Through Switzerland With Johnathan Owens
Simone Biles’ Birkin is a designer bag that will go the distance.
Biles, 27, showed off her new Birkin via Instagram on Tuesday, January 21, while taking a trip to Zurich, Switzerland, with husband Johnathan Owens. While strolling around the city, she carried her Hermès bag, handmade in brown leather with the signature gold “lock” closure.
The gymnast teamed her look with a fuzzy emerald green coat featuring wide lapels and multiple pockets, plus black leggings and white Adidas Samba sneakers.
Biles donned a soft smile while posing for the camera. Elsewhere on social media, Biles shared a mirror selfie of her and Owens, 29. The Chicago Bears safety bundled up in a black hoodie and a puffer coat. He teamed his top with tan bottoms with a creased front.
Simone Biles Buys $34K Birkin Bag With Jonathan Owens: ‘Emotional Support’
Throughout their day, the couple enjoyed mimosas, shopping for fur coats and Biles even posted a video of her getting “iced” — which is when you come across a Smirnoff Ice and have to take a knee and chug the bottle. She giggled in the clip while finishing off half the drink.
Biles and Owens’ getaway comes shortly after their stop in New York City, when she purchased her beloved Birkin bag. During her shopping trip, Biles shared a snap of the accessory via Instagram.
“Treated myself to a new lil baby while in New York,” she captioned a reel of the bag, which, according to Maison de Luxe, retails for $34,000. “Johnathan came for emotional support, baby I was sweaaaating.”
Simone Biles Pairs a Hoodie With Hermes on Date Night With Jonathan Owens
Biles is also the proud owner of an Hermès Kelly bag, which she teased after becoming the most decorated gymnast at the 2024 summer Paris Olympics. Her Kelly, which has a long crossbody hook and small hand straps, retails for $30,000 and is complete with silver hardware. Like Biles and Owens, consider the Birkin and the Kelly a perfect pair.
John Sykes of Whitesnake Dead at 65
Guitarist John Sykes died earlier this month after a battle with cancer. He was 65.
“It is with great sorrow we share that John Sykes has passed away after a hard-fought battle with cancer,” a statement posted on Sykes’ official Facebook page read on Monday, January 20. “He will be remembered by many as a man with exceptional musical talent but for those who didn’t know him personally, he was a thoughtful, kind, and charismatic man whose presence lit up the room.”
The statement continued: “He certainly marched to the beat of his own drum and always pulled for the underdog. In his final days, he spoke of his sincere love and gratitude for his fans who stuck by him through all these years.”
Sykes’ team concluded, “While the impact of his loss is profound and the mood somber, we hope the light of his memory will extinguish the shadow of his absence.”
Former Iron Maiden Singer Paul Di’Anno Dead at Age 66
Sykes was born and raised in England, kicking off his career with bands like Streetfighter and Badlands before he joined Tygers of Pan Tang in 1980. The musician recorded two albums with the group — 1981’s Spellbound and Crazy Nights — before his exit in 1982.
The rocker was introduced to Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott around the same time and the pair collaborated on his “Please Don’t Leave Me” single, which was released in 1982. Sykes officially joined the Irish rock band later that year as their guitarist.
Thin Lizzy’s 1983 album Thunder and Lightning was his first record with the group, which was followed up by Life. Sykes later recorded 2000’s live album One Night Only with the band even though Lynott died in 1986.
John Stamos Mourns Beach Boys Bandmate Jeff Foskett: ‘You Were Loved’
The band mourned the loss of Sykes via Instagram on Tuesday, January 21, crediting the late musician with “bringing a harder edge to their sound.”
“He always sounded fantastic and looked cool on stage. He stayed with the band until the end, a perfect fit with Phil, Scott [Gorham], Brian [Downey] and Darren [Wharton],” the social media post read. “Our respect and thoughts to his family and friends and a massive thank you for being a part of the Thin Lizzy story and history. Please play T&L today and play it loud.”
Following his success with Thin Lizzy, Sykes continued to take the rock world by storm as the guitarist for Whitesnake. He released 1984’s Slide It In and 1987’s Whitesnake albums with the band before moving over to Blue Murder. He released three albums — and was a vocalist as well as guitarist — with the English group from 1989 to 1994.
The iconic guitarist also had a successful solo career prior to his passing. His first solo record, Out of My Tree, came out in 1995. Sykes released two albums in 1997 and one in 2000. His last album, Bad Boy Live!, was released in 2004.
The music community paid tribute to Sykes via social media on both Monday and Tuesday. Tony Franklin, who was part of Whitesnake and Blue Murder, honored his late friend via X, writing, “My deepest heartfelt thanks for all your kind wishes and condolences for the passing of John Sykes.”
He added: “I am heartbroken and will miss him terribly. I’m thankful for the time we had together and the music we created. Rest peacefully John. Love you forever .”
Country Music Tragedies: The Saddest and Most Shocking Deaths
Radio personality and music talk show host Eddie Trunk shared his own message via X, calling Sykes’ death “devastating shocking news.”
“As most know John was not only a friend, but always one of my favorite guitarists,” he continued. “Stunned by this. What a loss. Condolences to his family and friends. Crushed. RIP John Sykes.”
Sykes is survived by his three sons: James, John Jr. and Sean.
