Olivia Munn is open to filling in for a TODAY Show host if they take a vacation
Olivia Munn co-hosted “Today with Jenna & Friends” on Wednesday, November 19, and it seems her hosting skills were loved by all. While many were wondering if she would join the show full-time, the actress recently addressed the topic while speaking to Entertainment Tonight.
During the interview at ‘The Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment Breakfast in Los Angeles, ET’s Deidre Behar confessed that the actress “was so great opposite Jenna” and said people would love to see her in “that chair full time.” She then asked if she would “consider” co-hosting the show at this point in her life.
The 45-year-old then opened up about hosting the TODAY show, saying that it wouldn’t make so much sense in her life right now since her “husband travels so much for his work” and “can’t be in New York City 24/7.” She then explained that she comes “in and out” to the New York City for at least “six months of the year” to shoot her Apple show.
However, the “Ocean’s 8” actress confessed that she “loves Jenna so much” and did propose them that in case someone is on “vacation,” she would be “happy” to co-host the show, leaving the host excited.
When Munn appeared on the show, she recalled her comedian husband, John Mulaney’s, marriage proposal, leaving everyone in splits.
She revealed that Mulaney proposed to her in the “balcony” of their “Bel Air Hotel,” which was not “updated.” However, they upgraded to a “nice suit,” but it had a hot tub that was surrounded by “eight signs.” “And one of them says ‘no diarrhea.’”
“And so in my engagement photos you just see [‘No Diarrhea’]… if you zoom in. He didn’t know,” Munn recalled, per PEOPLE.
