National TV Clamors to Interview Cpl. Kelsey De Santis (Video)

National television programs like Good Morning America, The Today Show, and Access Hollywood all jumped at the opportunity to interview Cpl. Kelsey De Santis today. She's the Marine who took Justin Timberlake as her date to the Marine Corps Ball in Richmond, Virginia this past Saturday.

De Santis asked Timberlake in July to be her date via a YouTube video that ended up going viral. Timberlake agreed to go, after urging his "Friends with Benefits" costar Mila Kunis to accompany Sgt. Scott Moore to his Ball. (Moore also asked Kunis to be his Marine Corps Ball date through YouTube.)

While it sounds like De Santis only got one dance with Timberlake, she's made it quite clear she's now a lifelong fan of the singer/actor. Here's Cpl. De Santis's interview with Ann Curry of The Today Show:
