Leigh should learn to smile!

Appearing on Today this morning.

Caveat - I don't have flash player at work so can't confirm if this is the correct video or if Leigh appears on it. If it is not, perhaps the mods can delete this thread.

Glad you said "Learn to smile" and not "learn to sing" :lol:

Actually he didn't sound too bad!

Can I point out two things:

1. I don't normally go onto the ninemsn site generally or the today show specifically.
2. I wasn't actually watching the Today show this morning to realise Leigh was on it - Alicia was and called out that "Leigh is on the Today show". I thought she was referring to a very annoying person we know...

You only would have known had you visited my blog or I'd told you.

I'm kind of surprised people watch that show. I tried watching it this morning and just let the Toppy deal with it.

ATJ - I doth not!

Leigh - When Alicia was feeding Alex, she lets herself switch off and let her brain sleep - morning TV is perfect for that.

Gary - I shan't answer that.

Wendell- just wait for the add to finish on the box on the right of the screen, and the tech toys section will come on - stick with it, and you'll see... and hear... Leigh :)

or, alternatively go here
http://today.ninemsn.com.au/
and then click on VIDEO: Tech toys take over shelves

or, follow this link (I think it is the same as the other)

That's the second JT comment I've had in two weeks.

Not only have I killed U2, I've killed SingStar and Justin Timberlake.

It wasn't video that killed the radio star. It was me, bitch. :P
