>>> GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE. HAPPY TUESDAY. WELCOME TO THE SHOW. I'M MEGYN KELLY. I HAVE TO GIVE YOU FAIR WARNING. I'M FIRED UP OVER HALLOWEEN COSTUMES THIS MORNING. TRULY, POLITICAL CORRECTNESS HAS GONE AMOK. THERE'S STRICT RULES ON WHAT YOU MAY AND MAY NOT WEAR, ISSUED BY SOMEONE WHO THINKS THEY'RE THE BOSS OF YOU. AND JOINING ME NOW TO DISCUSS IT IS NBC'S JENNA BUSH HAGER AND JACOB SOBOROFF. AND A SPECIAL GUEST ALL THE WAY FROM CALIFORNIA, TELEVISION HOST MELISSA RIVERS IS HERE. >> GREAT TO SEE YOU. >> THIS IS A DIFFERENT FASHION POLICING, MELISSA. HALLOWEEN IS NEXT WEEK, AS YOU KNOW, RIGHT? THIS YEAR, THE COSTUME POLICE ARE CRACKING DOWN LIKE NEVER BEFORE. LOOK AT WHAT SOME MAY SAY IS AN OFFENSIVE COSTUME. YOU MAY NO LONGER DRESS AS A COWBOY. THAT'S NOW OFFENSIVE. THE STUDENT UNION AT KENT UNIVERSITY IN THE U.K., IS PUSHING TO BAN IN, ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHER COSTUMES, SAYING THEY CAUSE OFFENSE, THEY'RE INAPPROPRIATE. AND IT GOES ON TO LIST THE THINGS THAT YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DRESS LIKE. YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DRESS LIKE HARVEY WEINSTEIN. >> FAIR ENOUGH. >> SERIOUSLY? COME ON. >> NO THANK YOU. THAT'S CREEPY. >> IT IS CREEPY. >> BUT I DON'T WANT THE UNIVERSITY OF KENT TELLING ME I CAN'T DO IT. YOU CAN'T WEAR ANYTHING MEXICAN-BASED. NO SOMBRERO, NO MILES AN HOUR RACK MIRACAS. >> THAT'S A SPRING BREAK THING. >> YOU CANNOT DRESS AS A NATIVE AMERICAN. YOU CAN'T DRESS AS A NUN. ISN'T THE PURPOSE OF HALLOWEEN TO DRESS UP AND PRETEND YOU'RE SOMETHING OTHER THAN YOURSELF? [ APPLAUSE ] >> I WAS A LITTLE SURPRISED ABOUT THE COWBOY BECAUSE MY GIRLS HAVE BOTH BEEN COWBOYS. THEY WORE THE COSTUMES I WORE WHEN I WAS LITTLE, LIVING IN TEXAS. THIS IS THE THING, COWBOYS DO DRESS LIKE THAT. THEY SAID THEY CAN'T DRESS LIKE THAT BECAUSE IT'S A STEREOTYPE. I KNOW SOME COWBOYS. >> I WOULD BE OFFENDED IF I DRESS LIKE A COWBOY, IT WOULD BE OKAY FOR PEOPLE TO BE OFFENDED BECAUSE I WOULD BE THE NERDIEST COWBOY OF ALL-TIME. >> I SPEND TIME IN WISCONSIN. AND THAT'S HOW THEY DRESS. >> YES, TOTALLY. >> I ALSO COME FROM A FAMILY WHERE YOU'RE SAYING YOU CAN'T DRESS LIKE A NUN. AND I REMEMBER WHEN MY MOM WENT AS A PREGNANT BRIDE. >> RIGHT. >> IT'S LIKE -- >> GOOD FOR HER. >> I JUST FEEL LIKE IT 'S SO ABSURD -- WHO COMES OUT WITH THE RULES. THERE'S A LIST OF WHAT YOU CAN DRESS AS. LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET. >> OH. >> YOU WOULD BE A GOOD "J." >> I SAID TO MY TEAM, DOUG AND I ARE GOING TO TOGETHER. I'M GOING TO GO AS "F" AND HE CAN GO AS "U." [ APPLAUSE ] GIVE ME A BREAK. >> YOUR KIDS MIGHT BE A LITTLE SHOCKED? WHAT DOES F.U. STAND FOR, MOM? >> THEY'LL FIGURE IT OUT. >> THAT WAS A PAGE OF HOW I WAS RAISED AND HOW I RAISE MY SON. I FEEL CONNECTED TO YOU AT THAT ONE. >> WE WERE SOUL SISTERS. THERE'S GOING TO BE OFFENSE CAUSED ON HALLOWEEN. SOME OF 2018'S MOST CONTROVERSIAL HALLOWEEN COSTUMES ARE, "THE HANDMAID'S TALE" KOS S COSTUME. >> AND YOU CAN'T DRESS AS ANNE FRANK. >> I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. >> YOU HAVE THE DIARY, I GUESS. I GUESS THAT'S THE ANNE FRANK COSTUME. >> IT'S A REAL COSTUME. >> FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION. THIS IS NOT IN OUR COUNTRY. BUT FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IS A BEAUTIFUL THING. SO IS FREEDOM OF SPEECH. YOU CAN DRESS LIKE AN IDIOT, AND DRESS AND BE RACIST, SOMEBODY SHOULD SAY SOMETHING TO SOMEBODY. BUT YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO DRESS LIKE A MORON. >> WHAT IS RACIST? YOU GET IN TROUBLE IF YOU ARE A WHITE PERSON WHO PUTS ON BLACK FACE ON HALLOWEEN, OR A BLACK PERSON THAT PUTS ON WHITE FACE FOR HALLOWEEN. THAT WAS OKAY, AS LONG AS YOU WERE DRESSING LIKE A CHARACTER. >> IF SOMEBODY FEELS LIKE THEY ARE OFFENSIVE TO THEM, YOU SHOULD SAY IT AND TAKE IT. >> YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO TAKE IT. >> ONE OF THE THINGS MENTIONED, IS PEOPLE DRESSING UP LIKE NAZIS. IF YOU THINK IT'S OFFENSIVE, IT PROBABLY IS. AND ONE OF MY BIG COMPLAINTS ABOUT SOCIETY RIGHT NOW -- WHATEVER HAPPENED. I KNOW HOW YOU WERE RAISED. I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU WERE RAISED. >> IT'S QUESTIONABLE. >> WHAT HAPPENED TO MANNERS AND POLITE SOCIETY. >> HALLOWEEN? YOU HAVE GUYS WITH FAKE AXES OUT OF THEIR HEAD. >> IN POLITE SOCIETY, SOMEONE WOULD NOT THINK THAT DRESSING AS A NAZI IS OKAY. I DON'T NEED -- >> OR PAINTING SOMEBODY. I THINK THERE ARE LIMITS TO HOW FAR YOU WANT TO GO. YOU'RE MAKING PEOPLE FEEL BAD. >> NORMAL PEOPLE KIND OF KNOW WHERE THAT LINE IS. >> RIGHT. >> I HAVE A SON THAT DRESSED AS A FIREMAN WITH AN AX AND INSISTED ON CARRYING THE AX AROUND FOR A WEEK. YOU KNOW? >> THERE WAS CONTROVERSY ON "THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW YORK" WITH LOUAN, AS SHE DRESSES DIANA ROSS AND SHE MADE HER SKIN DARKER THAN IT REALLY IS. AND PEOPLE SAID THAT WAS RACIST. SHE WANTS TO LOOK LIKE DIANA ROZ F ROSS FOR ONE DAY. >> I HAVEN'T SEEN IT. BUT IT SOUNDS RACIST TO ME. >> ME, TOO. >> I HAVEN'T SEEN HER. IF SHE WANTED TO LOOK LIKE DIANA ROSS, SHE SHOULD HAVE DRESSED AS MICHAEL JACKSON BECAUSE THEY -- [ LAUGHTER ] >> I DON'T KNOW. JUST COME ON. WE'RE ALREADY IN THE DEEP END. >> I CAN'T KEEP UP WITH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WE'RE OFFENDING JUST BEING NORMAL PEOPLE THESE DAYS. LET'S TALK ABOUT HOURS. WE DO A POSTGAME EVERY DAY. I TAKE QUESTIONS FROM THE AUDIENCE. AND I GET THE QUESTION, WHAT DOES YOUR MORNING SCHEDULE LOOK LIKE? I GET UP EARLY, AS DOES YOU. MANY PROBLEMS CAN BE SOLVED BY WAKING UP EARLY. THERE IS AN ARTICLE THAT EXPLAINS WHY WAKING UP EARLY, AROUND 4:00 OR 5:00 A.M., YOU CAN GET SO MUCH DONE. EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE A 9:00 A.M. SHOW. THEY'RE SAYING THAT EXTRA TWO HOURS -- >> THERE'S SOME EARLY RISERS IN HERE. >> TOTALLY. NO ONE IS AWAKE. NO ONE WANTS YOUR TIME. NO ONE WANTS TO BOTHER YOU. >> WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE KIDS. YOU HAVE TO WAKE UP EARLY. AND EVEN THEN, THEY FIND YOU. >> YES. >> BY THE WAY -- >> THEY FIND YOU. >> YOU HAVE YOUNG ONES. I HAVE A 17-YEAR-OLD. >> HE SLEEPS LATE? >> NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. HE NOW HAS PRACTICE IN THE MORNING. HE HAS A 6:00 A.M. WORKOUT TWO TO THREE TIMES A WEEK. >> NOW, YOU'RE SLEEPING IN TO AVOID HIM? >> HE KNOCKS ON THE DOOR, SAYS HE'S LEAVING AND NOW I'M UP. >> I TIP-TOE AROUND MY HOUSE. MY SON IS 2 1/2, 3 YEARS OLD. MY FLOORS CREEK SO BAD. I WANT TO MOVE JUST SO MY SON DOESN'T WAKE UP IN THE MORNING. >> I'M LIKE, PLEASE DON'T WAKE UP. >> WHEN YOU HAVE A TEENAGER, YOU CAN SET A BOMB OFF AND THEY WON'T GET UP. >> I DO GET A LOT DONE ON THE WEEKENDS WHEN I DON'T HAVE TO GO TO WORK. AND I DECIDED TO WATCH THAT MOVIE "WHAT LIES BENEATH" WITH MICHELLE PFEIFFER AND HARRISON FORD. I WAS WATCHING IT AND DISTRACTED. IT'S SCARY. AND I WAS SO ENJOYING IT. I'M WITH MY COFFEE BY MYSELF. >> WHAT TIME IS THIS AT? >> 6:00 IN THE MORNING. AND OUT COMES MY LITTLE 5-YEAR-OLD. AND I'M IN COMPLETE LOVE WITH MY 5-YEAR-OLD. I WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED TO SEE HIM. I WANTED TO WATCH THE REST OF MY MOVIE, WHICH IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR A 5-YEAR-OLD. IT'S AN AMAZING MOVIE. WE SPEAKING OF WAKING UP EARLY, HIGH ACHIEVERS COMING OUT AND SAYING, THE ONE THING TO BEING SUCCESSFUL IS A MORNING ROUTINE. WHATEVER YOU DO, WHEN YOU CHOOSE TO GET UP, YOU SHOULD DO THE SAME THING EVERY DAY. "NEW YORK TIMES" MAGAZINE -- "NEW YORK TIMES'" BENJAMIN SPAUL INTERVIEWED 300 PEOPLE AND HERE'S SOME COMMON THINGS THEY DO. MAKE TIME FOR WHAT ENERGIES YOU. ADAPT YOUR ROUTINE TO DIFFERENT SITUATIONS. WHEN YOU WORK OUT EVERY DAY -- YOU DO IT IN A HOTEL, YOU CAN GO FOR A WALK AROUND THE BLOCK. AND DON'T BEAT YOURSELF UP IF YOU SKIP THE ROUTINE. WHEN I WAKE UP, I GET COFFEE. I SIT OUT THERE. AND I DO "THE NEW YORK TIMES" CROSSWORD PUZZLE. >> IN PENCIL OR IN INK? >> IN PENCIL, SISTER. IN PENCIL. IN PENCIL WITH THE ERASER. >> GOOD QUESTION. >> ONLY ON MONDAYS WOULD I EVERYONE TRY WITH THE PEN. >> I LIKE -- I DO AN EXERCISE ROUTINE THAT IS PROBABLY NOT EXERCISE. I DO LIKE 26 PUSH-UPS. >> WHY 26? >> I DON'T KNOW. IT MAKES ME FEEL GOOD ABOUT MYSELF. IT DOESN'T MAKE ME LOOK ANY BETTER. BUT MENTALLY, IT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD IN THE MORNING WHEN YOU DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. >> WE ARE ON A TEXT. THE FAMILY TEXT CHAIN, WHERE WE READ THE SAME DEVOTIONAL. IT STARTED WITH MY DAD AND MY SISTER. I FOUND OUT THEY WERE DOING IT WITHOUT ME. WE READ THE SAME DEVOTIONAL AND THERE'S TEXTS WE SEND AND WE SEND OUR FAVORITE LINE FROM IT OR FAVORITE VERSE. AND WE ILLUSTRATE IT WITH EMOJIS BECAUSE WHY NOT? HERE IT IS. >> CAN WE KNOW WHAT GWB USES AS EMOJIS? >> HE'S JEFFE. HE GOES BY BOSS FOR MY KIDS. HE WANTED SOMEBODY TO CALL HIM BOSS. >> HOW CUTE ARE YOU GUYS? WHO PICKS THE DEVOTIONAL? >> I WAS ON THE WRONG DEVOTIONAL FOR ABOUT THREE WEEKS. >> SHE WAS LIVING WITH A DIFFERENT FAMILY. >> THAT WASN'T GOOD. IT DROVE ME CRAZY. >> SHE WAS ON THE TRUMP FAMILY TEXT. TRUMP IS GOD. TRUMP RULES. >> MY ROUTINE, USUALLY OF WAKING UP, GETTING MY COFFEE, CHECKING MY E-MAIL, LAYING BACK DOWN FOR A MINUTE AND THEN LAYING THERE FOR AS LONG AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE, THINKING ABOUT HOW -- HOW CAN I GET OUT OF THE TRAINER? I JUST LAY THERE AND I'M LIKE, I CAN JUST ROLL OVER AND TEXT I DON'T FEEL WELL. ALL I HAVE TO DO IS REACH FOR THE PHONE AND WRITE, SORRY, FORGOT I HAD A MEETING. >> I ALREADY PAID FOR IT. >>
