Mon Apr 21 12:50:00 UTC 2025: **Today Show Taps Sheinelle Jones as Hoda Kotb’s Replacement; Andy Cohen, Tiffany Haddish, and Justin Sylvester Guest Host**
NEW YORK – While a rotating cast of guest hosts, including Andy Cohen, Tiffany Haddish, and Justin Sylvester, are filling in on the fourth hour of NBC’s *Today* show, an insider source has revealed that Sheinelle Jones has already been chosen as the permanent replacement for Hoda Kotb.
Jones, currently on family leave, is expected to be officially announced as the new co-host alongside Jenna Bush Hager upon her return. The source cited Jones’s experience and proficiency in live television as key factors in the decision.
This week’s guest hosts include Cohen, known for *Watch What Happens Live*, who expressed amusement at the caliber of celebrities appearing with Hager, and Haddish and Sylvester who will appear in the coming weeks. Although popular with viewers, Cohen’s appearance is unlikely to lead to a permanent position.
