Jon and Kate plus Katie Couric?
Couric, 52, tells "Extra" that she's dressing as one of the Gosselin sextuplets for Halloween.
"I met Kate and she seems very nice," Couric dished to "Extra," adding, "and I told her I was gonna be Aaden, and she said, 'You have to make sure you wear the glasses at the end of your nose.'"
The CBS Evening News anchor also revealed that she'd hit the stage for "Dancing with the Stars" to tone up.
"The only reason I'd go on 'Dancing with the Stars' is because I would have to get in really good shape," she says.
But Couric admits she's "happier watching [the show] in my pajamas around my kitchen table eating ice cream!"
