We told you a few weeks ago about our boss's interview with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb and you can read even more from Today's newest co-hosts in USA WEEKEND's cover story this week. But one detail we just couldn't fit into the print story is that prior to her leaving Live with Regis and Kathie Lee, Gifford felt like she was in a "velvet rut." She says, "I was, at that point, being paid enormously for something that was no longer feeding me on a creative level. It was velvet, and it was comfortable, and it was paying well, but it wasn’t feeding me on a level that is so much deeper than your bank account." 

Our cover kicks off a four-week partnership with Today, in which we'll ask our readers and their viewers a series of lifestyle questions, and Kotb and Gifford will announce each week's results on Tuesday morning. This week's question asks about what trait you'd most like your significant other to have.
