Ann Curry is going to be replacing Meredith Vieira on The Today Show. It was announcement that was expected, and it has been made official today. After five years, Vieira is leaving the popular morning show, and leaving her post to Curry, who has been an NBC correspondent for fourteen years.
Instead
of hiring someone new, The Today Show is going to play musical chairs with their already talented reporters. "Natalie Morales, 38, is set to step into Ann's role, and MSNBC anchor Savannah Guthrie, 39, will be the 9 AM anchor," Hollywood Life reports.
Ann Curry is a great choice for the role opposite Matt Lauer. She is very professional, fun, and she has good chemistry with him. It's not going to be a big change for viewers because they are used to seeing Curry and Morales on a regular basis. It was also a smart move for NBC because Curry is very well respected.
