Hoda and Jenna Bush Hager traveled to New Orleans, Louisiana, over the weekend to do a segment for the show.
“YEP! We’re having the best time ever. We love you, Lizzo! 🤗 Tune in on Monday 5/1 to see our NOLA adventure. #Jazzfest,” she posted to her Instagram on Saturday.
Jenna filmed a video of her and Hoda dancing and singing along to Lizzo’s song, Special, at a festival.
They later attended another jazz and heritage festival and saw more bands and artists perform.
Although Hoda is partying it up in Louisiana, fans are not sure where Savannah is.
As the two main co-hosts were absent from the studio, Craig Melvin and Sheinelle Jones took over for them.
Jacob Soboroff and Al Roker later joined them at the desk.
With Hoda’s segment airing today, she may be back later in the week.
It is unclear when Savannah will be back or even where she is.
‘THE BEST DAY’
Over the weekend, the Today hosts were caught showing some skin as they reported at the festival.
They wore sleeveless tops and mini-shorts.
In the selfie video that Jenna, 41, took, she and Hoda, 58, loudly sang the lyrics with Lizzo, 35, when she was performing.
The TV anchors were similarly dressed; Jenna sported a black spaghetti-strapped tank top and quirky-patterned shorts, while Hoda wore a uniquely printed halter top and white cargo shorts.
Both Hoda and Jenna paired their look with sandals.
The Today morning show moderators’ ensemble underscored their muscular arms, toned legs, and chiseled clavicle.
WHY CAN’T WE BE FRIENDS?
Many fans in the comment section wished they were having as much fun as the media personalities, some even wanting to be partying with them.
“You gals are having way too much fun,” one fan expressed while another added: “I want to party with Hoda and Jenna!!”
Someone else noted that they “need to be their friends!”
One user cosigned: “Okay but can I go to a concert with y’all.”
BUSINESS & PLEASURE
Even though the dynamic duo was out having fun, they were still there on business.
In early April, Hoda and Jenna confirmed they’d be broadcasting their show live from New Orleans during the 2023 Jazz Fest.
The pair were all smiles when they made their announcement live on Today with Hoda & Jenna.
The official Today Twitter account shared a clip of from the episode where Hoda and Jenna shared the big news about their Louisiana trip.
Hoda began at the time: “Alright you guys, it’s spring break time, and Jenna and I, we’re ready for a little bit of fun!”
Jenna replied: “Oh my gosh, what do you say we pack our bags, we take our show on the road? That means it’s time for another edition of Hoda and Jenna’s Trippin’!”
During the segment, they spun a wheel on TV that would announce their next destination.
After the wheel spun for some time, it finally landed on a purple space.
“We’re going to New Orleans!” Jenna announced as the stage was filled with ticker tape.
Hoda called it “the finest music festival,” naming artists like Kane Brown, Lizzo, Ed Sheeran, and The Lumineers as attendees.
