Hoda and Jenna Prove They’re Always Ready for Fun
There’s no doubt that Jenna Bush Hager and Hoda Kotb are two of the most entertaining personalities on television today. On a recent episode of the Today show, they once again showed why they’re beloved by millions. This time, it wasn’t just their charm and wit that stole the show—it was their willingness to get down on all fours right there on stage! Yes, you read that right. These two powerhouse co-hosts turned the studio into a dance floor with a move they call the “Bucking Bronco.”
What Exactly Is the 'Bucking Bronco'?
During the episode, Jenna, now 43, revealed that she has a quirky party trick that she loves to bust out at social gatherings. She explained that she would often make her husband, Henry Hager, get on all fours while she climbed on top of him, riding him across the dance floor. Jenna fondly referred to this as the “Bucking Bronco,” and added that her twin sister, Barbara Bush, would sometimes join in on the fun by hopping on behind her. It’s a move that’s equal parts hilarious and unexpected, which makes it perfect for a lighthearted moment on live TV.

Of course, once Jenna shared her story, Hoda couldn’t resist suggesting they demonstrate the move right then and there. Dressed in a chic blue pantsuit, Hoda gamely got down on all fours, heels and all, while Jenna, wearing a sleek black dress, climbed onto her back. Even though Jenna joked that she might not be able to pull it off because of her skirt, she didn’t let that stop her. With a playful grin, she urged Hoda to “get on all fours” and promised the audience that this was a move worth trying at home. And let’s just say the crowd loved every second of it.

Watching them work together, it’s clear why viewers adore their dynamic. They bring an energy to the screen that’s both relatable and entertaining, making even the most unconventional moments feel like old friends catching up.
Guests React to the Hilarity
Their antics didn’t go unnoticed by the episode’s special guests, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, both 43. Watching from the sidelines, Nicole couldn’t help but express her admiration for the duo’s boldness. “We have to start doing that!” Nicole exclaimed. “I think Paris and I are going to start stealing that.” Clearly, the “Bucking Bronco” had struck a chord, inspiring others to try it themselves.
A Look Into Jenna’s Marriage
Jenna’s relationship with her husband, Henry, has been a frequent topic on the show. Over the years, she’s shared some pretty candid—and sometimes hilarious—moments from their life together. During one episode, Jenna admitted that even after 20 years of marriage, she occasionally experiences what she calls “the ick.” Thankfully, she reassured everyone that the good moments far outweigh the bad. “Spoiler alert…you do get it,” Jenna said with a laugh. “But there’s so many more un-icks than icks.”
Hoda, ever the protective friend, quickly jumped in to steer the conversation away from any potential headlines. But despite the occasional lighthearted banter, Jenna and Henry remain a devoted couple. Recently, they released their family’s annual Christmas card, showcasing their adorable children, Mila, Poppy, and Hal, dressed in whimsical fairy tale costumes.
Wishing Everyone a Magical Holiday Season
The Hager family’s Christmas card featured a heartfelt message on the front: “Peace and Love, Happy Holidays. Jenna, Henry, Mila (11), Poppy Louise (9) and Hal (5).” The back of the card read, “Wishing you hope ever after,” capturing the joy and warmth of the season. It’s a reminder that behind the laughter and playful antics on-screen, Jenna and Hoda are real people with real lives, just like the rest of us.
