Love might just be in the air—or on the set of the Today show! Jenna Bush Hager is on a mission to help her friend and co-host Hoda Kotb find her soulmate, and it became crystal clear during an episode that aired on Thursday, September 12, when musical guest Lenny Kravitz stopped by. Could this legendary singer be the one? Let's dive into the playful banter that unfolded.
Leather and Chemistry: Jenna Sets the Stage
It all started when Jenna, the ever-charming 42-year-old, playfully asked Hoda, who recently turned 60, if she was dressed in leather for a reason. "Is it because Lenny Kravitz, also 60, is coming on the show?" Jenna quipped. Known for his iconic leather looks and shirtless performances over his decades-long career, Lenny Kravitz is no stranger to turning heads. Clearly, Jenna was setting the stage for some playful matchmaking.
Hoda, embracing the moment, replied with a grin, "Yes, I am. This top is brand new. If you're going to have Lenny Kravitz perform on the plaza, you might as well go all out. Let's be honest, isn't he the epitome of everything cool and timeless?" It was clear that Hoda was just as much a fan as Jenna.

Compliments Galore: Jenna and Hoda Gush Over Lenny
Jenna didn’t hold back when it came to praising Lenny. She described him as "so kind," "very hot," and "incredibly talented." Hoda jumped right in, adding to the list of compliments. "He's hot, he's kind," she chimed in. "He's got it all—lives in the Bahamas, rocks barefoot, creates incredible music, and even meditates." Jenna then teased, "I know someone else who loves meditation, wears leather, and although they don’t live in the Bahamas, they’d definitely want to." Could she have been hinting at Hoda?
As the segment rolled on, Jenna couldn’t help but keep the playful energy alive. She was clearly hoping to spark something between Hoda and Lenny, with Hoda smiling and leaning into the fun.
A Playful Exchange: Lenny Weighs In
During the episode, Jenna turned to Lenny and mentioned that Hoda doesn’t always wear leather. Lenny, ever the comedian, playfully replied, "She thinks she’s slick, but I heard her last night! I was trying to take a nap, and suddenly the door opened. Then, the light in the closet turned on, and this morning, I noticed some of my pants were missing." The crowd erupted in laughter, and Hoda, blushing, clarified, "What he’s saying is that I sneaked in and stole his pants!"
Jenna didn’t miss a beat when she asked Lenny about his openness to love. "I know you're in a new chapter of life. Are you ready to find love?" she inquired. Lenny responded thoughtfully, "That's an interesting question... I mean, always. Love is all there is." It was a heartfelt moment that resonated with everyone watching.
Fan Reactions and Speculation
Viewers at home were clearly invested in the potential romance between Hoda and Lenny. On Today's Instagram page, comments poured in, with one person writing, "He was checking out Hoda’s leather pants... just sayin!" Another fan chimed in, "Ya’ll are both single and would make such a cute couple!"
Hoda, who recently announced her breakup from ex-fiancé Joel Schiffman in January 2022, has been open about re-entering the dating scene. "I can see romance clearly, I just can. It's how you know something is meant to be," she told Page Six on August 12, shortly after celebrating her 60th birthday. "I thought 50 was great, but 60 might be the best season yet! It's like repotting and growing. You feel the roots lifting, but then you land in rich soil and think, 'Oh, there's more room to grow.'"
