Jenna Bush Hager could not resist teasing Hoda Kotb for the “medical emergency” she suffered on Today last week.

During Monday’s broadcast, Kotb praised Jennifer Lopez for the way she gracefully recovered from a wardrobe malfunction while performing on Saturday Night Live this past weekend. Bush Hager appeared to agree, saying they could learn a thing or two from the pop star.

They shared footage from Lopez’s SNL performance that showed her inconspicuously removing a hair extension from her head while dancing. “She probably felt that come loose and just yanked it and I liked how she was just like, bye. And she never missed a step! Never missed a step,” Kotb said.

“She’s such a professional,” Bush Hager commented. “Haven’t we all had those moments? For example, you had one on Thursday when your contact was out and you couldn’t see. You missed a couple steps.”

They then shared a laugh as they aired footage from Thursday’s broadcast of Kotb trying to remove her contacts while on the air.

Bush Hager noted that many viewers and fans were invested in the saga. “People were really into the contact-gate. I couldn’t believe how many people were like, ‘Is her eye okay?'” she said. “I got emails about it!”

Kotb added, “The other thing is that the other contact that was in there from the day before came out, so there were two. It was like a slot machine, here they came.”

But the Today host fired back at Bush Hager, reminding her of the time they went through each other’s purses on air and Kotb found a loose hair extension wrapped around a phone charger at the bottom of Bush Hager’s purse.

“Ew,” Bush Hager commented as they looked back on the footage. “It’s like tangled up cords.”

We can’t all be J-Lo!
