If for some reason you can’t place the beautiful face of Leeza Gibbons, you’re going to remember the voice. Leeza is one of the iconic voices of our time. She was a longtime correspondent for Entertainment Tonight and Extra, and had her own syndicated talk show. But it’s her voice that has launched more radio hours than Casey Kasem or Dick Clark. Leeza is also an Emmy winner, the New York Times bestselling author of Take 2: Your Guide to Creating Happy Endings and New Beginnings, and has just released Fierce Optimism: Seven Secrets for Playing Nice and Winning Big.
Much to Donald Trump’s dismay, Leeza won his last season of The Celebrity Apprentice (where she raised a quarter of a million dollars for her charity, Leeza’s Care Connection), by being nice. (And it’s all true… something I can attest to after 25 years of friendship.) In this interview, Danielle and I talk with Leez about so many juicy topics related to writing, interviewing, succeeding, and loving (including hard-earned divorce wisdom).
I’m giddy to be able to share this remarkable woman–who has changed my life over and over again–with you! Leeza is on her whirlwind book tour and thankfully made time after guest hosting THE TALK over at CBS in Los Angeles to race home to be with us. We couldn’t be more grateful, or bigger fans of this fiercely loving optimist.
