Longtime journalist Katie Couric asked if Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., had a problem with being "ridiculously good-looking."
During an interview on Couric's "Next Question" podcast released Thursday, the former "Today" co-host remarked on how Newsom has been described as "slick" and whether that was a reference to his hairstyle. Newsom acknowledged that the comments had caused him to play into a "character."
"Do you have a 'Zoolander' problem?" Couric asked, referencing the 2001 Ben Stiller comedy.
After Newsom began laughing at the comment, she followed, "Are you just ridiculously good-looking, as Vogue said? No, seriously. What do you do about that?"
"You don't do anything about it. 'Cuz if you're going to do something about it, then you're b--------ing people. You know what? I am who I am. And it's fine. You don't have to like me. Or maybe you like a slick person. I don't know. Whatever. It's okay," Newsom said.
Both Newsom and Couric were mocked on social media for the exchange.
"He can't run for President on his record, so they are attempting to fabricate charisma," conservative commentator Stephen L. Miller wrote.

Playing hardball with those questions.
If she goes on like that too long, she could blow it.
Longtime journalist Katie Couric asked if Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., had a problem with being “ridiculously good-looking.” This might get zotted, but it seems Katie has a hard-on for hair gel.
Question for a Democrat: “God, you’re good looking.”
Democrat: “Thanks.”
Question for a Republican: “Do you know the name of the assistant under-secretary for the Interior in Rwanda?”
Republican: “Ummmmmmmmm.”
Follow-up: “How do you expect the American people to take you seriously if you don’t know this stuff?”
When he heard this he did hid Basic Instinct skit again. It went viral.
Did he do his snake dance while answering?
Was she on her knees when she asked?
She almost had an orgasm many years ago when interviewing Al Gore.
What a foolish thing to ask a narcissist.
How would he know?
It hasn’t been a problem for me.

Newsom does share Zoolander’s bumbling imbecile approach to simple matters. That was the comedy angle.
She should have asked him of being a serial killer is a good look..after all he did set the Palisades on fire, murdering 13 people in order to benefit himself with low income housing so he could say he solved the housing crisis in this state..that is what he meant by “Reimagining the Palisades” yet NO ONE when interviewing him, EVER brings up Pacific Palisades it pisses me off so damn much
Lucky for us she is a journalist who approaches the interviews strictly without personal bias. Otherwise she would get all gushy and treacly. /S
🤢🤮
Unfortunately for America, that is going to be an effective strategy.
75% of women vote for nice hair.
