Jenna Bush Hager ‘Judged’: Shaves Daily, Still Hairier Than Sheinelle
TV Hosts Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones Have a Hilarious "Shaving Debate" On Live TV
How It All Started: Keke Palmer Sparks the Conversation
It all began when actress Keke Palmer appeared on an internet talk show called Are You Okay? She made a surprising confession:
"I don’t really shave my legs. I’m not doing it. Who’s sitting there?"
Keke was basically saying: "I don’t bother shaving my legs, and I don’t care what anyone thinks!"
The On-Air Conversation: Jenna and Sheinelle React
The next day, Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones (co-hosts of TODAY With Jenna and Sheinelle) talked about Keke’s comments. Here’s what happened:
Sheinelle Agrees With Keke
- Sheinelle said: "I can’t even remember the last time I shaved my legs."
- She explained she doesn’t grow much leg hair naturally.
- She even let Jenna touch her legs to prove how smooth they were!
Jenna’s Reaction
- Jenna gasped: "Wow… She’s like a hairless cat. I am so jealous!"
- Jenna felt insecure because she has to shave every single day.
- She refused to let Sheinelle touch her legs at first: "Only during the commercial break!"
The Funny Leg-Touching Moment
Important Point: This was all in good fun between close friends who work together every day!
- Sheinelle convinces Jenna to let her feel Jenna’s freshly-shaved legs.
- Sheinelle touches the back of Jenna’s leg and bursts out laughing—she couldn’t even speak!
- Jenna quickly corrects her: "Oh, I didn’t get the back!" and guides Sheinelle to the front.
- Sheinelle gives approval: "That’s good! You only shave in pockets?"
- Jenna explains: She shaved at the gym with disposable razors and cut herself multiple times.
