Savannah Guthriehas dubbed her former self a “make out bandit.”

During an appearance onThe Drew Barrymore ShowTuesday, Guthrie, 50, said she’s not a fan of New Year’s Eve, prompting theNever Been Kissedstar to ask Guthrie if she ever liked “the idea of” kissing a stranger to ring in a new year.

“I didn’t need New Year’s Eve to kiss strangers when I was young,” Guthrie confessed. “I did not need an occasion to make out.”

“I don’t want to give the wrong impression … I was a makeout bandit,“TheToday Showco-anchor shared, adding, “It was like seventh grade. Don’t even try to put your hand up my shirt. I was a good girl but I did love to make out.”

In December, Guthrie celebrated her 50th birthday with a reflective carousel onInstagram. She kicked off the photos with a snap of her smiling with her eyes closed in front of a cake (with one slice cut out).

“anatomy of a perfect birth day,” Guthrie wrote, noting the “perfect pink sunrise” featured in the second photo.
