Craig Melvin’s Unexpected Confession on ‘Today’ Surprises Jenna Bush Hager
During the November 3 episode of Today With Jenna and Friends, guest co-host Craig Melvin made a startling confession that caught his colleague Jenna Bush Hager completely off guard.
“You know, I've never seen Today With Jenna and Friends,” Craig told Jenna, according to People.
Jenna reacted with surprise, exclaiming, “That is so rude!” and asked the audience if they had heard what he just said.
Explaining himself, Craig mentioned that he seldom stays in Studio 1A after his main hosting duties end earlier in the morning with Savannah Guthrie on the first three hours of the NBC show.
“I'm usually in transit, but this is nice,” Craig said in his defense.
Jenna quipped in response, “Here’s the thing… it’s a full hour.” Craig acknowledged her reply, admitting that he probably could find time to catch part of the show.
Although Craig hasn’t watched a full episode, he remains aware of the positive energy and charisma Jenna brings to her hour of the Today series.
