I love Ann but to say two things: She ages amazingly well and even though she is mixed, she has very strong Asian features (a good thing), even her daughter looks more Hispanic than anything else.

Ann and Veira were both dittsy idiots...now hopefully Ann will go back home where she belongs !!!

[pat9403]

@wka656 yeah, journalists should never speak to foreign leaders, that would be stupid.

[TheRealBlackula]

She FINE!

[MoviesTubeYou0675]

Happy Birthday to you, Ann Curry.

[wka656]

Leave it to clueless Ann Curry and Liberal bias NBC to go and speak to IRans PResident...what idiots !!!

False Flag 'Lone Wolf' Threats From Obama For The 10 Year Anniversary Of The 9/11 Attacks: Obama is hyping fear, potentially telegraphing a false flag punch in America's face. If there is an attack on 9/11 or a lone wolf attack, Obama, Napolitano, Holder, King, McCain, Lieberman, Giuliani, Bloomberg et al did it. They have revealed their prior knowledge of the threat.

GOOD LUCK ANN!! Miss Meredith but your great too! Congrats

[Chuck1974]

She seems personable but somebody needs to turn up her microphone! She has a low voice and sometimes it's tough to hear what she's saying ... especially when she's outside and the background noise level (crowd, traffic, etc.) gets kinda loud. Project, Ann, project!

I think it's interesting to point out how Matt was promoted from the news desk to replace Bryant, and now his own replacement, Ann, replaced Meredith.

[peteradaniel]

I always loved watching Ann when she occasionally replaced Brian Williams on Nightly News, and hoped she'd be either on the weekend chair there or be promoted on Today. She's gonna rock the Today show! Well done.

@guy2008rules: I think he was trying to hype it up

[ROBO916]

Ann is bomb!!!!! Go Ann!!

[guy2008rules]

Why was announcer so slow?

[missmoonriver24]

Ann is one of my inspirations. I'm so incredibly excited for her!!!!

[tbird209]

Thank you for putting this up!!! I missed it this morning. Thumbs up and good luck Ann.

[RestlessRick]

NBC finally wised up and placed Ann Curry in the anchor chair where she belongs. I stopped watching the TODAY Show 5 years ago when Meredith Vieira was selected to replace Katie Couric instead of Ann. Now that Ann is at the main anchor chair next to Matt, I will start watching TODAY again. Congrats Ann !!!!
