TODAY fans have slammed hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager for their “weird behavior” around Thursday’s guest, Harry Styles.
The 28-year-old had hit up the morning show to perform songs from his new album, Harry's House, and viewers though the anchors’ love for him got out of hand.
During Thursday’s Today broadcast, Hoda, 57, and Jenna, 40, showed just how much they love Harry, as they were unable to contain their excitement around him.
Fans, though, didn’t find it fun or endearing and instead blasted them for “thirsting” over him.
One fan wrote on Twitter: “My mom watching the today show…and hoda and jenna while harry performs???? weird behavior tbh.”
Another blasted the hosts and the show, saying: “The ‘you know he likes older women… it’s my shot’ commentary in the Story was uncalled for.

The pair’s gushing over Harry continued into Today’s 3rd Hour.

At the top of the broadcast, the two couldn’t stop going back and forth about how great and wonderful the entertainer is.
Even while interviewing Ricky Gervais on the show, they still brought the singer back up, with Hoda saying that “there’s just something about him.”
Jenna added, “Yeah, he’s very sexy.”
She then asked the comedian: “Did you see what he was wearing?”
The co-host let out a whistle before explaining that he had on a “unitard” for his appearance.
Fans once again blasted the duo for it, with one tweeting: “Hoda & Jenna absolutely feral over Harry rn… we get it babes.”
Another wrote: “No hoda and jenna are literally in love with harry and can’t stop talking about him.”
A third commented: “Watching Hoda and Jenna Bush gushing over harry is so funny.”
Others specifically called out Jenna this time around, saying the way she “talks about Harry is so weird.”
They added: “Not Jenna saying Harry called her a cougar when he was 18.”
Despite the Today hosts’ gushing over Harry, the actor-singer isn’t currently single.
Harry’s dating Olivia Wilde, whom he met on the set of his upcoming movie, Don’t Worry Darling.
He stars in the film opposite Olivia and Florence Pugh, while Jason Sudeikis’ ex also directed the movie.
Olivia and Harry confirmed their relationship in January 2021 after they were spotted holding hands at his agent's California wedding.
A source told Us Weekly in 2021, that the couple "had chemistry almost instantaneously" when they met on the set.
Olivia spoke about their relationship in December 2021, telling Vogue: "I think what you realize is that when you're really happy, it doesn't matter what strangers think about you.
