Macauley Culkin was on the show a lot. Or Haley Joe Osment.

Survivor has been such a hit, and out of that have come so many interesting stories from people that we don`t see on the big screen. We have helped make them incredible celebrities.

We all take a very careful look at how it`s coming across. We certainly don`t want to come across sounding sympathetic to anybody using drugs.

Our terrific staff was immediately rushed to the office to put together a show for last night, and an entire hour on John Ritter.

There have been many times when we have not run stories because we cannot get it verified.

I can`t say I`m happy to be talking about John Ritter and his passing. In my 21 years of Entertainment Tonight, this really was one of the most shocking and sad things to have happened.

The Bushes in office now have asked that everybody respect the privacy of their twin girls. We`re laying back because they asked for that.

The stars handle it very graciously. They let you know. They know how to play the game.

There are days like any normal human being where I wake up and I don`t feel like going to work.

Johnny Carson, when he and Joanna split after many years of marriage, everybody had it on news. That`s big news when big stars have a problem.

There have been many cases in which stars have come to us first to break the news because they knew the pressure was on. They wanted to have it on the air so that they could give their honest evaluation of the situation.

People do want to know the personal things. How far is too far to go with personal lives?

Julia Roberts is a favorite. Everybody loves her in the Hollywood community. The public adores her.

Martial arts just normally would not draw me to the box office.

In a lot of cases, as in Tom and Nicole`s case, the tabloids were about to break the story, so they said just let the news out. And they called organizations such as ours.

At these award shows, I love to see what people are going to wear.

People magazine had been around for a short period of time, but nobody had thought about putting entertainment news on a nightly basis on television.

We will often talk to Liz Smith about couples and relationships because she always has an inside track, too.

As journalists, we keep pushing and pushing.

The pressure to be timely with news has increased every year.

Traffic is one of the most powerful films to come out in recent years. It blew me away.

They had an opening. You know, it was one of those deals. I auditioned and got it in `93.

I can`t think of a major story that we have broken that was incorrect. But we have had to correct some things that were false; we have had to retract things.

I am actually wearing slacks on the show more than I ever have - it is now acceptable, and I like mixing it up.

I love the people I work with. I don`t know how long it will be or how long I will be blessed to be wanted there, but I enjoy what I`m doing now.

I honestly, sincerely love what I do.

It`s nice to help remember somebody who really made a very positive difference in the world.

We can`t laugh quite as much on camera, but we sure do on the set.

It was a very risky venture because at first, nobody really was comfortable with it. The publicists were very wary of putting their stars on the show.

Long gone are those days where the studio dictated what they could wear, where they could go, and with whom they could be seen. It was programmed.

There are so many venues in which stars are exposed today, that we just know much more and the studios don`t have the control over stars like they used to, in the 30s, 40s, and 50s.

Many have been with the show for years, and they have sources in the business, so we do know things, but until it is verified, we don`t run with the story.

There are people who are very highly paid to cover the truth and who will protect their clients.

When you look at what we spend on entertainment, whether it`s on CDs, music, DVDs, there is so much money invested in that, people want to know a little more about the stars they`re paying to see or hear.

"I really wanted to contact the woman, but I was, I wanted to call her and tell her I was really sorry, but I was afraid I`d kill her. I didn`t know what to do." -- Mary`s response to reports that the sound of her voices causes a NY woman to have seizures. "I choose to look for the good in people, not the bad. I choose to be trusting rather than untrusting. Choose to look at the negative things that happen as negative things that happen for a good reason, and, um, try always to go back to my roots."
