I said to my sister that her hair is so perfect it's almost distracting! |

She used to be married to John King! I don't know what that's indicative of, but I was oddly surprised to see that. |

I honestly don't know what all the fawning over her hair is about?! It's just boring straight brown hair. Mine is the same, and I long for blond or red ringlets... |

No. It's always flawless, no matter what time of day. Straight or 'done' she always looks like a Pantene ad lol. |

There's another thread on here just about her hair. I can't believe she's only 28. She looks, or seems, older. |

Poor Kaitlan....
In July 2018, Collins was barred from a Trump administration press conference in the White House Rose Garden.[6] She said that she was barred from the event after asking Trump questions about Russian President Vladimir Putin and Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen in the Oval Office. She said she was told by senior White House officials that such questions were "inappropriate for that venue."[7] Trump's press secretary Sarah Sanders asserted that Collins had "shouted questions and refused to leave,"[7] while Trump's advisor Kellyanne Conway said that the action was about "being polite."[8] Trump's deputy chief of staff for communications, Bill Shine, objected to the characterization of the White House's action as a "ban" but "declined to tell reporters what word he would use to characterize the White House’s decision to block her from attending the event."[8] CNN stated that the ban on Collins was "retaliatory" and "not indicative of an open and free press." The White House Correspondents Association called the ban "wholly inappropriate, wrong-headed, and weak."[7][8] Jay Wallace, president of Fox News, issued a statement in support of Collins, saying that his organization "[stood] in strong solidarity with CNN for the right to full access for our journalists as part of a free and unfettered press."[7] In April 2020, Collins questioned the President about his claim of total authority to manage social distancing restrictions related to the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.[9][10][11] At a White House press briefing later in April 2020, she refused to comply with an order by a White House official to exchange a seat closer to the front of the assigned press corp seating with another reporter representing a different news outlet seated in the rear (the other reporter likewise refusing to comply with the order for the seat swap.) Collins' assigned seat was on the front row, where correspondents representing major networks like CNN, NBC, and others had been assigned seating in the briefing room under social distancing protocol, under a plan managed by the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) and agreed to by White House officials the previous month. Collins' refusal to comply with the order issued by the White House official prompted that official to suggest that Secret Service may be summoned, a development that ultimately did not unfold.[12] |

OK, enough about her hair and let's talk about that coat. I love her pink coat, but I can only admire, as that color wouldn't look good on me. |

^^But the most important part is that I think she is a good journalist (as is Abby Phillip) and often asks the questions I am screaming at the TV myself. |
