NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Today with Hoda and Jenna’ host Jenna Bush Hager recently appeared on the popular game show ‘Jeopardy!’. She recently opened up about her experience of appearing on the game show with ‘Today’ co-host Hoda Kotb.

While talking about the beloved game show, Hager made a risque remark that left her co-host Kotb flabbergasted. The 41-year-old redefined how spicy her recent ‘Jeopardy!’ appearance was and shared the story with Kotb.



 

Jenna Bush Hager’s NSFW comments leave Hoda Kotb speechless

Hager participated in the game show ‘Jeopardy!’ where she read clues for a category titled "Reading with Jenna Bush Hager", which was related to her book club. The following day, a clip of her appearance on the game show was shown on ‘Today’.

During their conversation, Hager asked Kotb whether she liked how she read the clues. She said, “Did you like how I read those clues?” Kotb playfully responded, “My favorite part wasn’t how you read them, it was when they say, ‘Jenna Bush Hager for $1,200, please.'”

Hager expressed that she was “just proud to be part” of the game show. They then transitioned to a light-hearted discussion about how Hager's appearance on the show could have been different if it wasn't focused on reading and her book club.

Jenna humorously suggested some alternative clues about herself and said, “’Who doesn’t wear underwear on the Today show?’, ‘Who once did a thirst trap and embarrassed her entire family?’, ‘This person once got a minor possession of alcohol.’” Kotb was taken aback by these NSFW clues and burst into laughter as Hager kept listing them.



 

‘She got fired’

Hager surprised Kotb with a shocking revelation during a Sundae Showdown contest earlier in the week. As they engaged in playful banter and started making their sundaes, Kotb jokingly warned Hager not to copy her. She said, “Don’t copy me, Jenna.” When the guest host praised Kotb's ice cream scooping skills, she confessed that she had previously worked at an ice cream shop. Seizing the opportunity, Jenna brutally fired back, exposing Kotb by saying, "She got fired!"
