Twitter is Perplexed By This Super Awkward Today Clip of Megyn Kelly and Hoda Kotb Dancing
We’ve chronicled a number of Megyn Kelly’s foibles through her first few weeks as host of Megyn Kelly Today. But the former Fox News host might have just hit a new low with a super awkward segment involving another Today host.
At the end of the first segment on her Thursday show, Kelly and Hoda Kotb broke out into a not at all spontaneous dance party for some reason. It happened during a discussion about motherhood, and things that make Kelly and Kotb happy. Kotb invoked her love of music. And all of a sudden, the two morning TV stars were up and dancing to Pitbull’s “I Know You Want Me.” The transition couldn’t have been more clunky.
Blue check Twitter was equal parts confused and horrified. Here’s a sampling of the reaction.
Hoda was on #MegynKellyToday this morning for no reason other than to fill time and I’ve never been so embarrassed. pic.twitter.com/wXUatEcPhY

Sitting in the “Megyn Kelly Today” studio audience would test even the most irony-poisoned person’s sense of shame https://t.co/P0POPUXW6t
