Today Show co-hosts Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones just began working together on the fourth hour. Yet, viewers are already slamming the duo for disrespecting guests, but what are they doing that is so off-putting? Keep reading for more details on what fans have to say.
Jenna & Sheinelle Keep Disrespecting Guests
When Hoda Kotb announced her departure from the Today Show, no one knew who could fill her spot. She sat beside Jenna Bush Hager, and they made a perfect pair. Once she exited, no one was announced as a permanent co-host, but rather, they had rotating hosts sitting beside Jenna. Her sister was there as well as Andy Cohen, Bowen Yang, and more. Finally, Sheinelle Jones became the new co-host, and she joined Jenna in early 2026, a year after Hoda left NBC. Although many viewers were thrilled as they love and respect Sheinelle, it seems she and Jenna do one thing that is extremely rude.
In a recent interview with Jason Biggs, some viewers noticed how Jenna and Sheinelle were constantly interrupting the actor. They noted how it was commonplace, but it seemed more prevalent with this interview in particular:
- Lord what is with all the interruptions today?! I know it’s the usual. But today with Jason Biggs is awful. Both Jenna and Sheinelle are interrupting every other word. Talking over him. Trying to finish his sentences. What the heck ?! Why
The big question was whether this bothered a lot of Today viewers or if they just let it slide. Moreover, did they find that Jenna Bush Hager was guiltier than Sheinelle Jones? As it turned out, many felt that they were both annoyingly rude toward Jason. Yet, it seemed that Jenna was now someone who was being tuned out when she came on the screen. She had become unlikable over her time as a co-host and Hoda Kotb was the one who really balanced the Dallas, Texas native out.
Have Some Respect
Today Show viewers saw the segment with Jason Biggs and could not get over how disrespectful Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones were. They spoke over and interrupted him repeatedly. This made it insufferable, and some, as aforementioned, have tuned Jenna out:
- I turn off Jenna. She’s awful and I hate it because I like Sheinelle…she needs to learn not to jump over everyone’s conversation while they are talking.
- Watching it right now. He was interrupted a lot!
- He was. So much so he seemed hesitant to speak. Her start a sentence and one of them would interrupt and he’d say no , go ahead. That’s crazy
- This is the exact reason I don’t watch The View. They all get loud and excited, and talk over each other. If you’re in this position, you need to learn how to shut up and listen to each other.
