Hoda Kotb Rushed to Make Daughter Haley's School Concert During 'Today'

Hoda Kotb briefly left 'Today' on Thursday, April 18, in order to attend her daughter Haley's school spring concert

After stepping out from the second hour of Today early, Kotb said she and her driver, Eddie, blasted Beyoncé ’s cover of “Blackbird” to calm their nerves while rushing through New York City traffic. “We rolled up to the school, peace out, run inside, make eye contact with my daughter,” Kotb shared, adding that Haley gave her a wave and a smile upon seeing her in the audience. She later exited Today ahead of the March 27 episode of Hoda & Jenna and shared an adorable Instagram video of Hope riding around NYC on her scooter while singing “Firework” by Katy Perry.
