Kathie: I got to go to the White House and had a zit the size of Arkansas. (edit)

Kathie Lee: To this day I do not believe I'm great at anything. (edit)

Kathie Lee: What's better than to know your little boy loves his mom? (edit)

Kathie: I once said the Queen of England could use some fashion advice. (edit)

Kathie Lee: (About rumours that she airs "Live" braless) Ridiculous! It's extremely cold in our studio, so you could be wearing a steel harness and you'd still have a little action, if you know what I mean. I do not like industrial-strength push-up bras. I wear very flimsy things. Besides, what 46-year old woman who's nursed two kids goes braless? (edit)
