Katie Couric Manti Te'o Interview: Everything On The Notre Dame Linebacker Dead Girlfriend Hoax

Katie Couric has Manti Te'o on for an interview. Here is everything on the entire Notre Dame Linebacker's girlfriend hoax.

The Manti Te'o girlfriend hoax is the weirdest story of the year and it only seems to be getting worse for the Notre Dame linebacker.

The whole situation began after the publication of a Deadspin report that said Te'o's girlfriend, who reportedly died from leukemia earlier in the season, did not exist. Soon after, the story took many twists and turns, including how Te'o lied about what he knew and that the hoax was perpetrated by a man named Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, who created the fake identity of Lennay Kekua.

Te'o gave his first on-camera interview to Katie Couric on her syndicated talk show, "Katie," on Thursday, and admitted he lied to the media after finding out about the hoax. He said he was embarrassed by the entire situation and was nervous about appearing on national television.

It can be hard to keep track of everything going on, so here is a rundown of all the stories Sports World Report covered on the Manti Te'o Hoax:
