Lauer Abs-olutely Needs a New Swimsuit

31. At least he's not buying a different pair of shorts for each time he goes into the water. What is he supposed to do - throw the old ones out? It's more friendly to our environment, not to mention the slave labor it took to make the shorts, if he wears the same shorts every once in a while. Makes him more like us, I think.

32. So according to TMZ we should all be merchandise whores and only wear our clothes once and throw them out. It's more environmentally friendly to wear the heck out of our clothing, and when it starts falling apart, then you can throw it and get new.

TMZ should be encouraging people to be more environmentally concious, not trying to make a big deal out of nothing. Shame, shame, shame.

33. Why can't celebs re-wear things? Regular people do it. But, he needs variety and a whole bunch of swim shorts. He has money.

37. Wow. Did one of you brain dead idiots at TMZ actually spend money to attend college so you could do THIS for a living? Your parents must be so happy. "Look mom! I outted Matt Lauer wearing the same board shorts for two years!" And your professors at The University of Missouri must be glowing with pride...

43. Leave the guy alone! So what if he has the same swimsuit for two years? Just because he doesn't spend his money like you idiots @ TMZ think he should, SO WHAT??? Hey, I still have the same swimsuit for 17 years, and it is in perfect (mostly because I don't swim much)condition. lol. And who says that pic wasn't from the first time also? Maybe someone sold you the same pic (with a different view)again! Wouldn't that be a riot!! Papa Larry H.

44. Matt Lauer is a very handsome man. He's 16 years older than me, and he his picture raised my eyebrows. Why buy new shorts when they still fit and still look great??
