Jenna Bush Hager, a co-host on the “Today” show’s fourth hour, has come under fire for an eyebrow-raising on-air confession that left both viewers and coworkers stunned. During a lighthearted debate with outgoing co-host Hoda Kotb about holiday gift-giving, Bush Hager casually revealed she doesn’t wear underwear—a comment that many felt crossed the line for a family-friendly program.
“The one time my Aunt Smith went rogue, she brought me some big ol’ granny panties. I don’t wear panties—everybody knows that!” Bush Hager exclaimed.
The comment quickly sparked controversy, with some insiders calling it an attention-seeking ploy. “Jenna has a habit of blurting things out, especially when she’s nervous, but this felt desperate,” a source shared. “Announcing you don’t wear underwear on a morning show is undignified and unnecessary.”
Concerns Over Jenna’s Future Without Hoda Kotb
Hoda Kotb’s departure from the fourth hour of “Today” has also added pressure on Bush Hager. With a rotating lineup of guest co-hosts expected to fill Kotb’s seat, insiders suggest Bush Hager is nervous about maintaining the show’s chemistry without her longtime counterpart.
“How she’s going to handle the show solo is anyone’s guess,” one insider said. “She’s panicking and blurting out things that are better left unsaid.”
“Jenna is worried she won’t click with the guest hosts,” the insider added. “It’s a tough spot to be in, especially with the kind of scrutiny she’s facing now.”
Mixed Reactions From Viewers and Colleagues
While some viewers found Bush Hager’s candid moment amusing, others criticized her for oversharing. The backlash has reportedly left her coworkers rolling their eyes, questioning whether her comments detract from the professionalism of the show.
“It’s not just about this one comment,” an insider explained. “There’s a sense that she’s been pushing the envelope for attention. Her coworkers wish she’d tone it down.”
Despite the criticism, Bush Hager has continued to draw a loyal fan base, with many praising her authenticity and relatable anecdotes. However, as the show transitions into a new era without Kotb, the pressure on Bush Hager to lead the fourth hour successfully is greater than ever.
For now, NBC executives are keeping a close eye on audience reactions as they plan for the future of the “Today” show. Whether Bush Hager’s candidness will remain a charming quirk or become a liability is yet to be seen.
