1. It got a bit hairy on the plaza this morning — when barber David Alexander shaved 73 heads to raise money for cancer research, that is. The group set a new Guinness World Record as part of our Spring Breakers TODAY series.  

2. Prince George and his cheeks are having a grand ol’ time Down Under. Natalie and Savannah cooed over news of the littlest royal’s first public playdate, and eventually Matt gave in.

“Begrudgingly, I say he’s very cute,” Lauer admitted.

3. Dove's new social experiment — which offers women a “revolutionary” new "beauty patch" that claims to make them more beautiful — resulted in a surprising twist.

“I think it’s very clear that beauty is a state of mind,” psychologist Ann Kearney-Cooke told Savannah.

4. As part of NBC News’ “Hooked: America’s Heroin Epidemic” series, Kate Snow spoke with a mother who saved her own son with the antidote Narcan.

“I had preconceptions about drug users before this all started — until it happened to my own family,” Anne told Snow. “It isn’t just this strange person under the bridge. It’s your regular kids.”

"If she kisses anyone she'll kill them — which, I mean, who doesn't relate to that?" Chenoweth joked to Lauer.
