Keke Palmer joins Jenna Bush Hager as co-host on Wednesday’s edition of Today with Jenna & Friends. The episode offers a mix of lighthearted makeovers and slightly more serious discussions about social media.
Today’s Talk will tackle “Social Dilemmas,” a topic that could range from online privacy concerns to the addictive nature of social media platforms. Hopefully, they’ll go beyond the usual hand-wringing and offer some concrete advice.
Actor Andrew Rannells will discuss his new project, All In, a documentary series for MSNBC.
For those more interested in aesthetics, celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton will be performing hair makeovers as part of a “New Year, New You” segment. Expect dramatic transformations and plenty of product plugs.
This is the third episode of Today with Jenna & Friends’ first week with its retooled format. The rotating co-host strategy is certainly an attempt to keep things fresh, though whether it can compensate for the loss of Hoda Kotb and maintain viewer interest over the long haul is up for grabs.
Today with Jenna and Friends airs weekdays at 10 a.m. ET on NBC.
