TIME You're working on a new album. What kind of music are you writing for it?

KATHIE LEE I wrote two songs yesterday with [producer Gen Rubin]. One of them is very Bonnie Raitt-ish, called Heart of a Woman, [about] what women really want. I did all these magazine covers for 15 years, and my face has changed, my figure's changed, God knows my hair has changed, but on the covers of all these magazines, the same questions: how to have five orgasms a day, how to get him to give you what you really want. You want the same thing your partner wants, to be accepted for who you are. I wrote another song called Make My Day, about when you get up in the morning and your partner's still asleep, but you think, Oh, this would be such a great way to start off our day, and I'm tempted to touch you, tempted to wake you...

TIME That sounds dirty.

KATHIE LEE I don't know who you're sleeping with, but it's not dirty to me.

TIME What's a guy to do five mornings a week when you're not there?

KATHIE LEE Get a life.

TIME How do you have five orgasms a day?

KATHIE LEE You're talking to the wrong person. When you find out, let me know.
