Savannah Guthrie, the host of the ‘Today’ show, found herself at the center of controversy after the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris when U.S. gymnast Jordan Chiles was ordered by the IOC to return her bronze medal. In an exclusive interview with ET’s Rachel Smith at the ‘Today’ show plaza in New York City, Savannah shared her thoughts on the situation.
When asked about the Jordan Chiles controversy, Savannah expressed her disappointment, stating, “It’s such a shame that Jordan has to go through this. She worked so hard for that medal, and it’s heartbreaking to see it taken away like this.” The IOC’s decision to strip Chiles of her medal has sparked outrage among fans and supporters of the young gymnast.
In a surprising turn of events, Hoda Kotb crashed into the interview to share the story behind her picture with Tom Cruise. Hoda, who celebrated her 60th birthday on Monday’s show, teased the audience with juicy details about her encounter with the Hollywood star. The ‘Today’ crew, known for their lively banter and camaraderie, was all smiles as they reminisced about the unforgettable moment.
