Where is Hoda Kotb? Willie Geist forced to step in on ‘Today With Hoda & Jenna’
NY Post
Something fishy was going on “Today.”
Viewers were left baffled when Willie Geist, the anchor of “Sunday Today,” filled in for Hoda Kotb during “Today With Hoda & Jenna” Wednesday.
Geist, 48, and co-host Jenna Bush Hager, 42, made no mention of Kotb’s absence from the program despite the 59-year-old anchor being present for the first two hours of the NBC morning show.
“Not only can Willie host all the shows on television, and pull out my chair … but he also is a star,” Bush Hager gushed before turning the conversation to Geist’s most recent role on “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”
Continuing to praise her co-host’s acting abilities, Bush Hager proclaimed that she could see Geist becoming “a soap star” once he decided to leave the show.
“I think you could be on, like, ‘The Young and the Restless,’ ” the former first daughter quipped.
