Jenna Bush Hager Unveils Chic New Bob, Inspired by “The White Lotus”
NEW YORK, NY – June 17, 2025 – “Today with Jenna & Friends” co-host Jenna Bush Hager has officially revealed the stunning results of her dramatic bob haircut, a transformation that took place live on air and has since garnered significant buzz. The big reveal on Tuesday’s show showcased a sophisticated, chin-length bob that has left fans and co-hosts alike impressed.
The inspiration for Bush Hager’s bold new look comes directly from the widely popular “c***y bob” sported by Leslie Bibb’s character in the latest season of “The White Lotus.” Bibb herself was present on Monday’s segment of the show, co-hosting and providing moral support as celebrity hairstylist Chris McMillan—known for iconic cuts like “The Rachel” for Jennifer Aniston—wielded the scissors.
On Monday, viewers saw the initial chop as McMillan began the transformation, much to Bush Hager’s nervous excitement. She even joked about onlookers outside the studio seemingly urging her not to go through with it, and her own daughter had expressed reservations. However, with Bibb’s enthusiastic encouragement and McMillan’s reassuring words about bobs being “like spring cleaning” for damaged hair, Bush Hager committed to the change.
The final result, revealed today, is a sleek and modern bob that perfectly frames Bush Hager’s face. Her blonde locks now sit just above her shoulders, a stark but refreshing contrast to her previous mid-length style.
“You made this haircut so famous, and I used your haircut to get the exact same haircut,” Bush Hager told Bibb during the reveal, clearly thrilled with the outcome. McMillan explained that the A-line bob would be versatile for Bush Hager, allowing her to wear it natural, wavy, or even tucked behind her ears. He also noted the similarities in face shape between Bush Hager and Jennifer Aniston, ensuring the bob would complement her features.
While her daughter initially expressed concern, Bush Hager shared a video of her three children’s ecstatic and surprised reactions to her new ‘do, proving the bold move was a hit with her family as well.
The new bob is already being hailed as a fresh and stylish choice for the summer, solidifying its place as one of the season’s most sought-after hairstyles. Jenna Bush Hager’s live on-air transformation has certainly made a lasting impression, showcasing the power of a good haircut and the influence of a viral TV trend.
