Let’s talk about two of the most beloved co-hosts on TV right now: Jenna Bush Hager and Hoda Kotb. These ladies aren’t just coworkers; they’re real-life best friends who bring their genuine connection to the screen every day. But even best friends can still surprise each other! On an episode of Today With Hoda & Jenna aired on November 16, Jenna, the former first daughter, shared a fashion choice that might raise some eyebrows: she doesn’t wear underwear. Yes, you read that right.
Jenna, who’s now 40, didn’t just make this confession lightly. She actually had a pretty good reason for it. “I think it makes a more pretty silhouette!” she declared with confidence. And she didn’t stop there. “I also think you don’t have to pack as much. There’s a lot of pros to it!” Jenna explained, turning what could be seen as a quirky habit into a practical lifestyle choice.

How Did This Topic Even Come Up?
Well, it all started in the dressing room before the show. Hoda, who’s 58 years old, was getting ready alongside Jenna when she noticed something unusual. “I had a little shock with it,” Hoda admitted, explaining how she “noticed” Jenna wasn’t wearing underwear. Now, keep in mind, these two have been working together since 2019, so they know each other pretty well. But even best friends can still surprise one another, right?

Hoda brought this up during the show, telling the live studio audience, “I was a little surprised because Jenna and I know a lot about each other.” As the anchor of Dateline, Hoda isn’t shy about sharing personal stories, and this one was no exception.
Why Does Jenna Prefer Going Commando?
Jenna didn’t shy away from explaining her reasoning. She told the audience that it’s not just about aesthetics—it’s practical too. After hearing Jenna’s explanation, Hoda chimed in, pointing out some of the benefits herself. “It actually does make life a lot easier,” Hoda said. “There’s a lot of washing of clothes, over and over.”
Throughout the conversation, Jenna kept things light-hearted, laughing and smiling as she shared her thoughts. She joked about how her mom, former first lady Laura Bush, might react to hearing this confession on national TV. “You promised me you wouldn’t do this! There’s a lot of people here!” Jenna teased Hoda, adding with a chuckle, “I’m sure my mom has never been more proud.”
Family Matters and Borrowed Clothes
Jenna, a mom to three kids—Mila, Poppy, and Hal, whom she shares with her husband, Henry Hager—often discusses family life on the show. But this time, they took a different route. Hoda and Jenna also talked about their shared habit of borrowing clothes from each other. Jenna admitted to occasionally stealing pants from Savannah Guthrie, another co-host on Today. “And I do want to borrow that red suit of yours,” Jenna said to Hoda, before adding with a wink, “Can I? I’ll wear underwear.”
Hoda, a mom to two daughters, Haley Joy and Hope Catherine, adopted during her relationship with ex-fiancé Joel Schiffman, laughed and replied, “Yes, you can, anytime.”
