While on Today With Jenna & Friends, Jenna Bush Hager made quite the spicy remark after witnessing Scarlett Johansson, her former guest host, share a kiss with Jonathan Bailey on the red carpet during the Jurassic World Rebirth premiere.

Bush Hager was joined by comedian Michelle Buteau, who was guest hosting that Wednesday morning (June 18), as they watched the clip of the actors kissing in slow motion. “Those are two very attractive individuals right there,” Bush Hager remarked.

But Buteau was a bit confused by the spectacle.

Buteau chimed in, saying, “I have friends… We don’t do that. Maybe that’s a thing for famous people?” to which Bush Hager responded with laughter. Buteau continued, “It’s a little crazy, a bit of sexy, and a touch wild. Is this what famous people do?”

Bush Hager couldn’t answer Buteau’s question, but she did make an offer to Johansson and Bailey ahead of their upcoming appearance on Today With Jenna & Friends.

“I feel like Jonathan Bailey or Scarlett Johansson can kiss me on the lips whenever they want,” Bush Hager stated.

Even Buteau appeared shocked! “Okay, we’ll make that happen,” she said.

Bush Hager appeared as if she wanted to take back that statement as she said, “They’re gonna be here next week. I’m now a little…”

Buteau joked that the Today host was feeling bolder after getting her hair cut live on television earlier this week.

“One bob cut and we can’t keep her contained!” Buteau joked. “I would love to see that.”

It’s no secret that Bush Hager is a fan of Johansson. Johansson was one of the first guest hosts to join Bush Hager on Today With Jenna & Friends after Hoda Kotb‘s exit. The actress seemed to enjoy her short stint in daytime television and even told Bush Hager this was her “favorite job” she’s “ever had.”

“I have to say this really fills my cup. I absolutely have to come back if you’ll have me,” she told Bush Hager at the time.

Now, it looks like Johansson will finally be back on Today to promote her upcoming blockbuster film. Here’s to hoping she will be able to guest host Today With Jenna & Friends again!

Today with Jenna & Friends airs on weekdays at 10/9c on NBC.
