Jenna Bush Hager and Scarlett Johansson bond on TODAY with Jenna & Friends
Johansson has shined during her brief tenure alongside Jenna Bush Hager this week. During the January 21 episode of TODAY with Jenna & Friends, both co-hosts gushed over the other's career path in the most adorable fashion. As it turns out, both women had been living out the other's dream this entire time!
"I cannot believe it," confessed Johansson. "And more importantly, everyone in my life can't quite believe it either. The people that knew me very well were like, 'You are living your dream. I am so happy for you.' The people that did not know me as well were like, 'What's going on? Are you OK?'"

Johansson aspired to be a morning show host her entire life, and now TODAY has made it a reality.
Hager, on the other hand, revealed that she always dreamt of following the road Johansson's been on, which included multiple stints on Broadway over the years.
"Your life was my dream," she explained. "I wanted to be a Broadway star, but I was not talented. I wasn't talented. I can't sing, for one, but my mom would drive me to try out for Les Misérables even though I was, like, kind of a chunky Texas [kid]... not my vibes."
Fans can't get enough of their fantastic on-screen chemistry that is reminiscent of the energy found between Hager and Hoda Kotb for so many years. Who knows? We could be looking at the next permanent co-host of TODAY's fourth hour!
