Longtime journalist Katie Couric asked if Gov. Gavin Newsom<\/a>, D-Calif., had a problem with being “ridiculously good-looking.”<\/p>\n

During an interview on Couric’s “Next Question<\/a>” podcast released Thursday, the former “Today” co-host remarked on how Newsom has been described as “slick” and whether that was a reference to his hairstyle. Newsom acknowledged that the comments had caused him to play into a “character.”<\/p>\n

“Do you have a ‘Zoolander’ problem?” Couric asked, referencing the 2001 Ben Stiller comedy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After Newsom began laughing at the comment, she followed, “Are you just ridiculously good-looking, as Vogue said? No, seriously. What do you do about that?”<\/p>\n

“You don’t do anything about it. ‘Cuz if you’re going to do something about it, then you’re b——–ing people. You know what? I am who I am. And it’s fine. You don’t have to like me. Or maybe you like a slick person. I don’t know. Whatever. It’s okay,” Newsom said.<\/p>\n

Both Newsom and Couric were mocked on social media for the exchange.<\/p>\n

“He can’t run for President on his record, so they are attempting to fabricate charisma,” conservative commentator Stephen L. Miller wrote.<\/p>\n

Republican communicator Matt Whitlock commented, “Gavin has a serious Beto problem in that the media infatuation with him doesn’t match the record or actual political viability.”<\/p>\n

“This reminds me of when Chris Cillizza posted on Twitter, ‘Let me say for the billionth time: Reporters don\u2019t root for a side. Period.’ Absolutely nailed it,” Outkick writer Ian Miller remarked.<\/p>\n

New York Post columnist Kirsten Fleming joked, “His walk out song at the DNC is going to be ‘I\u2019m too sexy.'”<\/p>\n

Couric’s comments resembled a Vogue magazine profile piece on Newsom, a 2028 presidential contender<\/a>, that described the governor as “embarrassingly handsome” last month.<\/p>\n

“Let\u2019s get this out of the way: He is embarrassingly handsome<\/a>, his hair seasoned with silver, at ease with his own eminence as he delivers his final State of the State address,” the opening line read.<\/p>\n

The magazine was similarly mocked across social media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
