Katie Couric Loves Bacon, Lil Wayne, Pranks (VIDEO)

Katie Couric popped in on her old network Wednesday night with an appearance on Jay Leno.

Couric joined Leno for "10 at 10," a segments of ten questions.

Among the revelations made, Couric (who turns 53 on Thursday) has Lil Wayne's "Lollipop" on her iPod, the best gift she ever got was a bacon of the month club from Al Roker, and if she had to drive across country with any celebrity it would be George Clooney.

I'm always amazed that so many people see Katie Couric as an example of the decline of journalism and ignore the real problems -- infotainment, budget cuts, "if it bleeds, it leads," deference to those in power.

I think Katie is terrific, and I appreciate that she at least seems to try to have a sense of humor about herself.

Katie is so wonderful. I was so impressed with her subtle undoing of S. Palin. She is a hero.
Right up their with Uncle Walter and Bill Moyers.

Katie asked history's greatest questions!

What newspapers or magazines do you read...? Too bad she was asking a doorknob for an answer.

She's numero uno in my book!

I wonder if she really listens to that song. It is very provocative...that second or third line. I'm too much a lady to write to words...but it made me like look at Lil Wayne in a more possitive light. All you guys should take the hint. Laughs and giggles

She's way more than a cheerleader. She just may have single handly saved the country.

In a dangerous world we want our news from credible and serious people. She appears to have no intellect and needs to hold herself to a higher standard. Her ratings are at the bottom and this just reflects why.

Who wouldn't love a prank where Lil Wayne is wrapped in bacon?
