Hey there everyone,

I was watching Today on NBC and i couldn't help but think: what if one of those hosts needed to go to the toilet?? not necessarily UC-related but some people might eat something or get a cold or whatever and then need to go.

I've also wondered about the celeb's on the red carpet!!! especially while they are parading their dresses around, and some of the women don't even have that much covering their butt lol.

So how do you guys thinks these people manage to do this day in and day out without a blip?

We only see the best side.

Have no idea. Maybe they've trained their butts to poo in the morning after breakfast and coffee....like many of us do as well.

That's how I was able to work full time....but I was there on the wire time-wise. I'm sure the celebs have a better sleep/working schedule than I.

I always wonder this! We have a 24 hours news station that I watch regularly. Every time the weather guy comes on I think...wonder if that was me and I had to poop mid weather report! Lol.

Whoopie farted on the view. Does that count?

I have no idea. But from personal experience, UC symptoms remain at home. As soon as I'm out with friends or in public, they're gone! O_o

I'd like to borrow you my version of U.C. Mine is the real deal. It doesn't give a crap what med I'm on, what diet im on. It's on a mission of destruction.

I thought about this earlier today! I was doing Tap Out, and I had to pee really bad during the jumping jacks, and I thought, what do these people do if they have to poop or pee in the middle of this work out? Or what do the people on the news do?

Stereo: i so like how well-behaved your UC is, lol, seriously.

Gary: did whoopie really 'fart'? oh gosh somehow that's worse than saying please take an ad break i have to go toilet.

Quincy: i was thinking about what you said and i agree, my colon likes to go twice (before breakfast and then after breakfast) then it's good, unless i drink milk lol. Caffeine is an absolute no no for me though. Even before UC when i drank caffeine it used to give me insomia (even if i drink it in the morning). Unless i drink a very small amount but i figured there no point.

Yeah, it was loud enough to be heard and made the rounds in news stories. You may be able to find it in a search.

THey wouldn't go to the red carpet if they were flaring, that's for sure! As for anything that's not live, it would be cut out and you would never notice. Live TV has got to be tough.

I remember that Pete Sampras had the runs once in the middle of a Grand Slam match and disappeared for a bit- the commentators didnt spell it out but it was pretty obvious that those were his physiological needs. That was some years back but. Bet he popped some immodium and came back and won the match with a few of his aces.
