Jenna Bush Hager Apologizes to ‘Today’ Guest Joseph Gordon-Levitt After On-Air Blunder: ‘I’m Sorry’


Jenna Bush Hager apologized on-air during an episode of Today after making a shocking blunder during a candid conversation with guest Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Joseph, 43, chatted with Jenna, 42, and cohost Hoda Kotb about working on the new film Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F with Eddie Murphy, one of his idols. “For me, this was Eddie Murphy when I was young because my brother was so into his stand-up, into Saturday night live, and into his movies like Beverly Hills Cop, so the opportunity to play his new sidekick…” he trailed off. Joseph announced the death of his brother on X, calling him his “superhero brother.” He remembered his late sibling in a tribute posted on what would have been his 46th birthday in July 2020.
