Andy Cohen<\/a> was not particularly impressed with the energy Jenna Bush Hager\u2019s<\/a> husband Henry Hager brought to Today With Jenna & Friends<\/a> when he surprised her with a special birthday message Tuesday (Nov. 25). <\/p>\n

In the video, which was aired during Tuesday\u2019s broadcast, Jenna\u2019s husband not only wished her a happy birthday, but he also announced he would be joining her as a guest host on Today during the holidays on Dec. 25 and Dec. 31.<\/p>\n

\u201cHappy birthday Jenna. Hope you have a wonderful day today,\u201d Henry says. \u201cI just wanted to let you know, as a present to you and your viewers, I will be coming to co-host the holidays with you. So, let\u2019s get ready to do this. Can\u2019t wait.\u201d <\/p>\n

Cohen did not miss a beat before he started ragging on Henry for the lack of energy he brought in the video, leaving him wondering how Henry would fair on live television.<\/p>\n

\u201cWow, you can feel the energy coming off of Henry,\u201d Cohen quipped sarcastically, causing Jenna to laugh. \u201cWow, that was electric. Is he going to be bringing this energy to the show? Woah, we\u2019re not ready.\u201d <\/p>\n

Jenna could not contain her laughter as Cohen went on to imitate Henry. \u201c\u2018Uh, I am going to be cohosting your show.\u2019 Was that a hostage video or a birthday greeting?\u201d he joked.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the way, if you think that\u2019s bad you should see the videos my kids do,\u201d Jenna responded.<\/p>\n

Cohen went on to tease Henry for his \u201ccrackling excitement\u201d but added, \u201cWow okay, well we look forward to Henry co-hosting Christmas Day and New Years Eve.\u201d <\/p>\n

This won\u2019t be Henry\u2019s first time on the show. During his first time guest hosting Today With Jenna & Friends, he and Jenna did a lie detector test which forced him to admit she\u2019s given him \u201cthe ick\u201d <\/a>before. <\/p>\n

Jenna told Cohen that Henry was initially unwilling to return to the show after his co-hosting stint.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had such a fun time,\u201d she gushed during Tuesday\u2019s broadcast. \u201cHe was really cute. We asked him to come back and he said no so this is really a gift and we\u2019ll see how it goes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today with Jenna & Friends\u00a0airs on weekdays at 10\/9c on NBC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Andy Cohen was not particularly impressed with the energy Jenna Bush Hager\u2019s husband Henry Hager brought to Today…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":313343,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[8205,88,27642,3,92],"class_list":{"0":"post-313342","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-andy-cohen","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-jenna-bush-hager","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=313342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/313343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=313342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=313342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=313342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
