Jenna Bush Hager’s Jaw-Dropping New Hairstyle Revealed on Live TV

by

It’s blunt bob summer—and Jenna Bush Hager has decreed it so. 

On June 16th, the news anchor was inspired by Leslie Bibb, her co-host on the show “Jenna & Friends.” She decided to cut her shoulder-length hair live on air. The next day, she displayed her fresh new look during the broadcast of the show.

On the June 17th episode of ‘Today’, Jenna, aged 43, declared, ‘This is my new haircut.’ She admitted to having a peculiar sensation, reminiscent of the ’90s film ‘Single White Female’. In that movie, one character tries to imitate another so closely. The hairstyle she’s sporting now was made popular by you, and she had your renowned hairstylist recreate it exactly. This leaves her feeling a bit unusual.

Although Chris McMillan styled both their haircuts, Jenna’s hairstyle doesn’t exactly resemble the actress from White Lotus. Leslie’s blunt cut ends slightly above her chin, whereas Jenna’s hair length is just above her shoulders. Nevertheless, Leslie couldn’t help but express enthusiasm over Jenna’s fresh new hairstyle.

The well-known alumnus emphasized, “You definitely do not seem out of place.” He continued, “Instead, you exude an attractive, commanding, and glamorous aura. Yesterday, I couldn’t help but say it – you are indeed bold and assertive.

Jenna, who has children Mila (13), Poppy (9), and Hal (5) together with husband Henry Chase Hager, revealed that her kids weren’t overly fond of the recent change, but Henry found it appealing.

“He was like, ‘Damn that’s hot,’” Jenna gushed. “Which was sweet.”

As for how Jenna is feeling about her new summer look?

 

She clarified that she felt more carefree, given all the changes taking place. However, she admitted to feeling somewhat awkward due to the increased attention. Despite her colleagues jokingly commenting that she enjoys attention like a mother, she confessed to feeling a bit embarrassed.

 

If Jenna doesn’t fall in love with her short hair soon, she has the option to let it grow longer again. As Chris, her hairstylist mentioned on June 16, “Bobs are similar to spring cleaning.
