During their guest hosting stint on “Today with Jenna & Friends” on July 21, Willie Geist and Savannah Guthrie reminisced about their longstanding friendship and shared memories from a recent ’70s themed birthday party celebrating their 50th birthdays. The duo reveled in the fun of their celebratory bash, with Guthrie expressing her love for themed parties.
Reflecting on the colorful attire they donned for the occasion, Geist noted, “We love a ’70s party in particular,” adding that such themes bring out a distinctive flair. Guthrie chimed in, complimenting the timeless appeal of ’70s fashion, suggesting, “I feel like the ’70s looks good on everyone.”
As a photo from the party featuring the pair in eye-catching outfits surfaced, Geist playfully remarked that Guthrie reminded him of actress Michelle Pfeiffer in “Scarface.” In a lighthearted banter, Guthrie quipped that both Geist and her husband, Michael Feldman, exuded a “pornstar vibe,” further highlighting the humorous tone of their discussion.
Throughout the week, Geist and Guthrie will continue to co-host the show while Jenna Bush Hager is on leave. This move follows Hager’s announcement about a rotating list of celebrity guests stepping in to fill the vacancy left by Hoda Kotb, who recently retired.
Fans of “Today with Jenna & Friends” can enjoy the lively camaraderie and entertaining segments featuring Geist and Guthrie as they keep the spirit of daytime television vibrant in Hager’s absence. Today with Jenna & Friends airs weekdays at 10 a.m. ET on NBC.
This segment underscores the joyous nature of friendships in the spotlight, inviting viewers to celebrate the lighter side of life through themed parties and laughter.
