Carole King Makes NYC Her 'Living Room'

Carole King was in town this week promoting her new DVD ‘Welcome To My Living Room,’ and it was a downright honor and pleasure spending time with her. Everywhere we went people stopped Carole to tell her how much her music meant to them.

The week kicked off on Tuesday with a performance on the Martha Stewart Show. In addition to performing “Up on the Roof" Carole was a good sport and sat in with Martha for a craft segment (see pic below). Later that evening Carole was honored with a Living Legend Award at Martha Stewart’s first annual Dreamers into Doers gala event.

And earlier this morning Carole played - count ‘em! - four songs on The Today Show. She was the first artist ever to perform in the 8, 9 and 10am hours on the show, and Meredith, Matt, Anne and the gang loved every minute of it. Here’s a pick of Mark Satlof (right) and I, with Carole backstage at the Today Show.
