On her last day Wednesday, The Today Show paid homage to outgoing anchor Meredith Vieira.

In a montage of highlights from Vieira's 5-year run, we saw her interviewing movers and shakers like Pres. Barack Obama, Lady Gaga, Jerry Seinfeld and Donald Trump, among others.

We also saw Vieira covering key historical events like 2007’s Virginia Tech massacre, Michael Phelps’ domination of the 2008 Olympics and Michael Jackson's 2009 death. In addition, we saw how she was a key factor in the unlikely success of the Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire.

"I have never enjoyed working with anyone as I have enjoyed working with Meredith," her co-host Matt Lauer said.

After the montage aired, a teary Vieira, 57, was given a round of applause from her colleagues, saying she was “honored” to have worked with them.
