Pretty darn good. How are you doing?
I'm alright.
You look great.
Thank you.
You do. You really look great.
Thank you.
Well, how is it that you look this great?
I run about 25 miles a week.
You run?
I don't know. I eat healthy.
Now, when you were with the Go-Go's, you didn't... I mean, you looked great then.
But now... Paul, what am I looking for here?
Well, she's changed her hair.
Have you changed your hair, Belinda?
Yeah, it's longer.
Longer.
It's now red.
Uh-huh.
Now, how did that happen? That was that Chernobyl deal in Russia, right?
It was tough keeping up the blonde, so I went back to my natural color.
Is that your natural color?
No. My mom's the redhead. I decided to go for it.
Uh-huh. What do you mean you decided to go for it?
I just decided, why not? I mean...
You look great.
Thank you.
And, gee, the song sounds like it's going to be a big hit, so this is nice.
You must be very happy now.
Very happy.
You have a new pet?
Yes.
Tell the folks what that is.
A pig.
There you go.
Yeah.
How big a pig? Is it like one of those giant...
It's the Swayback Potbelly Asian Pig, and we've been going through all the society pages to find a good name for it, so we haven't really...
But why do you want a pig? Do they make decent pets?
Yeah, they're very clean. They're very smart, and...
Do you have it in the house with you?
Yeah, it's a house pig.
You know, I was accused of that once in a divorce settlement, but that's a...
Do you have other animals?
I have four dogs and a parrot.
And what is the interaction like between the dogs and the pig?
They all seem to get along all right, and the parrot likes the pig, too.
Among the pig and the dogs, who is the dominant? Which is the dominant animal?
Believe it or not, the bulldog is.
Well, no, that makes sense.
Junior, yeah. Junior's the dominant.
And would they ever get... Now, have you seen dogs fight? You know how awful that can be if a dog gets...
Yeah, I know how awful that can be.
Now, have you ever seen the pig and the dog get into it?
No, not yet. No, that would be kind of interesting.
Yeah, and plus bacon for a month.
I can't... No bacon, no time.
I just can't get over you. You are stunning.
Oh, God, thank you.
Well, you're certainly welcome. I mean, you deserve it. I mean, why not?
I mean, don't you think?
Yeah, if you look that way, yeah.
The album is Heaven on Earth, and we heard... What did we hear?
Diane Keaton directed that video, too.
Oh, is that right?
Yeah.
Heaven is a Place on Earth, and that's what we heard the title.
Right.
Well, it looks like it'll be a big hit.
Okay.
And you come back as often as you like. Come back tomorrow night, as a matter of fact.
We've got a little commercial.
