In the years since Howard Stern became a star, he has led a fascinating life between his relationship with stars like Barbra Streisand and getting beaten up for his jokes. However, one of the main things that has made Stern successful enough to become rich is his ability to get celebrities to admit things they usually wouldn’t.
One example of that is that fact that Stern once got Matt Lauer to admit that he had a crush on his former co-anchor, Katie Couric. Years later, Lauer and Couric’s relationship took a surprising turn when it was reported that Lauer felt betrayed by Couric.
This article will reveal what Matt Lauer said about finding Kate Couric attractive during an interview with Howard Stern. Then, the article will look at why Lauer felt betrayed by Couric years after his memorable Stern interview.
Matt Lauer Admitted That He Found Katie Couric “Very Attractive”
For several years during the ’90s and 2000s, Matt Lauer and Katie Couric co-anchored the Today Show together. Several years after that, Lauer appeared on The Howard Stern Show in 2013, and he discussed his former co-worker with the radio host.
At the time, The Daily Mail published an article about Lauer’s comments which cited the New York Daily News. As that article revealed, Lauer didn’t go so far as to say that he had a crush on Couric, but his comments said it all. After all, Lauer admitted how attracted he was to Couric because of her physical beauty and who she is as a person.
