Meredith Vieira

Today show host Meredith Vieira has more than proven her skills as a reporter. But we love that the newswoman has a sense of humor, too: Vieira and her Today cohorts traded cashmere for polyester and traveled to 1974 for a funky photo shoot for the 35th anniversary issue of People. The anchors had fun letting loose, but in her houndstooth dress and side-swept bangs, Vieira pulled off the look best. She switched gears to interview Kate Gosselin, who confirmed rumors that Jon Gosselin had secretly emptied their joint bank account. Gosselin was emotional, but Vieira tactfully asked the tough questions.
