I'll do almost anything for cake - even trample little children!

I changed my name from Gail to Gayle in seventh grade because I liked to make a loopy 'y.

I love a man who loves his mama, which is one of the many reasons I'm crazy about Justin Timberlake.

I've been watching Mad Men since day one.

People think that I don't work, and I fly around in Oprah's private plane doing whatever I want.

I can't stop watching 'Pan Am.' When I was growing up, my father worked as an engineer in Turkey, and we always flew Pan Am. The stewardesses were so glamorous! When they gave me a set of those golden wings, I felt very grown-up. Not only is the show's plot full of mystery and infidelity, they get the period details just right.

I fell into TV quite by accident but once I was in a newsroom for the very first time, I was hooked because I loved the adrenaline. There was a breaking story that day and people were running around to get the news on the air. I thought, Jesus, how do you get to do this? So, that's how it started. The bulk of my career was in TV.
