NextImg:Keke Palmer Confuses Jenna Bush Hager On ‘Today’ By Asking If She Was “Gagged” To Be A ‘Jeopardy!’ Clue: “Is Gagged A Good Thing?”

Keke Palmer taught Jenna Bush Hager some new slang when she appeared as a guest host on Today With Jenna & Friends Wednesday (Jan. 15).

Palmer appeared seriously impressed that Bush Hager was recently featured in a puzzle on Pop Culture Jeopardy!, the new pop-culture focused game show hosted by Colin Jost. “Last time I checked, you have a $600 worth of thirst trapping going on,” she told Bush Hager, who laughed. “What happened with Jeopardy, girl?”

After Bush Hager explained that she was referenced in a clue on the new Prime Video series, Palmer asked her co-host for the day, “Were you gagged?”

“Is gagged a good thing?” Bush Hager responded. When Palmer and the Today crew confirmed it was, she admitted, “I was gagged. And I was also a little embarrassed. Take a look, you’ll see.”

They then shared a clip of the Pop Culture Jeopardy! clue, which read, “With the help of Hoda Kotb & a hairdryer, this Today Show book guru posted a thirst trap to celebrate 1 million followers.” The clue was worth 600 points.

“Yes, girl! I need to see the pictures,” Palmer exclaimed. The photos from a January 2022 episode showed Bush Hager dramatically posing with a book and a pair of glasses as Kotb aimed a blow dryer at her. Palmer said, “Oh my gosh, yes honey, it’s the legs. Girl, I didn’t know you could get down like that.”

Bush Hager, who is a mother of three, sheepishly admitted with a laugh, “I’m reading a book called The School for Good Mothers.” She then told Palmer, “Somebody was like, ‘Were you trying to look like a librarian?’ And I’m like, ‘A naughty librarian.'”

Later on in the broadcast, Ben Stiller got to show off his own lingo when he and Palmer bonded over the fact that he recently starred in SZA’s music video for her new single, “Drive.” The Severance director and EP was joined by actor Adam Scott to promote the new season of their Apple TV+ sci-fi series.

“That was fun to do,” he said. “You know I like to ghost ride the whip a lot.”

The unexpected comment made Bush Hager and Palmer laugh, as she joked, “Period! I know that’s right. Then steal your girl.”

Today With Jenna & Friends airs weekdays at 10/9c on NBC.
