Oops! Craig Melvin may have let some news slip before it was even made public!
On the latest iteration of TODAY, on Wednesday, April 8, in their Pop Start sneak peek, Savannah Guthrie, Craig Melvin and Carson Daly discussed the new (very viral) cover of Vogue with Meryl Streep and Anna Wintour, promoting The Devil Wears Prada 2 (in theaters starting May 1).

Craig Melvin accidentally dropped some news about Jenna Bush Hager
That's when Craig added: "You know how that movie's going to be good? You know how I can tell? JBH is in it," which led to an "ooh!" from Al Roker, and the camera turned to Jenna Bush Hager to the side, waiting for her Morning Boost moment, but left momentarily speechless.
"I don't know that you were supposed to drop that bomb," she confessed, all but confirming that the news is indeed true. "Wow!" Al exclaimed, with Savannah chiming in: "You cannot tell Craig anything!"
Craig, left embarrassed and in hysterics, quickly apologized, explaining that he didn't realize it wasn't "common knowledge," and when Savannah confirmed it was a surprise, Al replied: "It is now!" Craig shouted back: "Sorry about that, JBH!" and Savannah quipped: "Why don't you read my journal while you're at it?"
When the show returned after a commercial, Savannah explained she was "putting it back together here," and the show continued to poke fun at the hilarious moment for the rest of the two-hour morning.

Later, during one of Al's forecasts, when the rest of the anchors made fun of him by pretending to be on their phones, referencing a joke tantrum from earlier in the show, Al simply called out: "Jenna, are you in a new movie?" once again leaving her stunned and Craig in loud hysterics.
Once again, during the full Pop Start segment, Al and Savannah looked back on their appearances in the Sharknado franchise, and the former then joked with Jenna: "You can be in Devil Wears Prada 2, we were in Sharknado!"

The sequel arrives almost exactly 20 years after the original
The Devil Wears Prada sequel is already shaping up to be one of the year's most anticipated cinematic events, dropping nearly 20 years after the original arrived in 2006 and became a surprise box office and critical darling. Not only did it gross over $300 million at the global box office, it even received two Oscar nominations (one for Meryl's performance), and is now considered a pop culture phenomenon.
Meryl, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci all return for the sequel, in which Miranda Priestly (Meryl) grapples with the rapidly changing landscape of media, especially print media. She once again works with Andy Sachs (Anne) and her former assistant Emily Charlton (Emily) to ensure that Runway makes it through a decline.

The movie includes several other high-profile cameos outside of Jenna, some of them coming from Lady Gaga, Sydney Sweeney, Donatella Versace, Ciara, Calum Harper, and Ashley Graham. Others in the cast include Kenneth Branagh, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Simone Ashley, and Patrick Brammall.
Donald Trump Gets More Bad News…
That Thursday marked a historic and unprecedented moment in the United States. For the first time in the nation’s history, a former president was charged with crimes related to actions taken after leaving office. Federal prosecutors alleged that Donald Trump conspired to defraud the United States, obstruct the certification of the 2020 presidential election, and interfere with constitutional rights tied to the voting process.
According to the indictment, the effort to challenge the election results extended beyond political disagreement and became a coordinated attempt to disrupt a lawful transfer of power. Prosecutors argue that these actions undermined democratic institutions and threatened the integrity of the electoral system.
The case has deeply divided Americans. Many view the charges as an important step toward accountability, emphasizing that all citizens, regardless of position or influence, are subject to the law. Others see the prosecution as politically motivated and believe it unfairly targets a former president and leading political figure.
As the case proceeds through the courts, attention will focus on legal arguments, evidence, and testimony rather than political rhetoric. Whatever the final verdict may be, the proceedings are likely to leave a lasting impact on the nation. The case will influence future discussions about presidential authority, legal accountability, and public trust in America’s democratic institutions.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that Barron Trump has been hospitalized following an undisclosed medical event.
Barron Trump has continued attracting major public attention recently, even though he remains one of the most private members of the Trump family. As the youngest son of Donald Trump and Melania Trump, Barron spent most of his childhood under intense media attention, especially during the years his father served as President of the United States.
However, unlike many children from famous political families, Barron has mostly avoided interviews, social media activity, and public controversy. Because of this, people are often curious whenever he appears publicly or becomes involved in new projects.
Barron Trump is currently 20 years old and is believed to be continuing his education in business studies in New York. Over the past year, he has gradually started appearing more often at major public events connected to his family.
His appearances frequently become major topics online because many people are surprised by how much older and taller he now looks compared to earlier years when he was still a teenager living in the White House.
One of Barron’s most talked-about recent appearances happened during a major political event where he attended alongside several members of the Trump family. Photos and videos from the event spread rapidly online because Barron appeared more mature, confident, and relaxed than people remembered.
Many viewers commented on his height, calm demeanor, and reserved personality. Unlike some members of the Trump family who often speak publicly or engage heavily with the media, Barron usually remains quiet and avoids drawing attention to himself.
Recently, Barron Trump has also gained attention because of reports connected to business and entrepreneurship. According to several discussions surrounding him, he has become increasingly interested in business development and private ventures.
One project that generated significant public interest involved a beverage company connected to yerba mate energy drinks. The project reportedly focused on health-oriented drinks inspired by South Florida culture and lifestyle. News surrounding this venture surprised many people because Barron had previously stayed almost entirely outside public business discussions.
People close to the Trump family have reportedly described Barron as intelligent, ambitious, and very focused behind the scenes. Although he maintains a low profile publicly, there are claims that he spends significant time studying business strategy, finance, and entrepreneurship.
Some observers believe he may eventually follow a path similar to his father in the business world, although he currently appears far less interested in political attention or public controversy.
Another reason Barron Trump continues attracting widespread attention is because of how mysterious his personal life remains. Unlike many celebrity children who actively use social media or seek entertainment careers, Barron rarely shares personal details publicly. This privacy has caused constant curiosity online, with people often speculating about his future career, personality, and interests.
Regarding his health, there are currently no verified reports suggesting that Barron Trump is seriously ill or facing major medical problems. During his recent public appearances, he appeared physically healthy, active, and composed. Videos and photographs from events show him walking confidently alongside family members and interacting normally in public settings.
Because Barron remains so private, rumors about his health sometimes spread across social media platforms. However, many of these rumors appear to come from speculation rather than confirmed information.
His quiet personality and reserved expressions during events often lead people online to invent stories or assumptions about his emotional state or health, but no reliable evidence currently supports claims of any major medical condition.
Many people also continue discussing Barron Trump’s extraordinary height. He is widely believed to stand well over six feet tall, making him noticeably taller than most public figures around him.Whenever he appears next to his parents or siblings, social media users frequently react to how dramatically he has grown over the years. His height alone often becomes one of the most discussed aspects of his appearances.
Observers often describe Barron as a combination of both his parents’ personalities. Some people believe he inherited Donald Trump’s business instincts and confidence while also reflecting Melania Trump’s quieter, more private nature. Melania has always appeared especially protective of Barron throughout his childhood, often trying to shield him from unnecessary media attention.
In recent years, Barron’s public image has gradually shifted from “the president’s young son” to a young adult beginning to build his own future. This transition has created even more public fascination because many people are curious about what direction he may eventually take.
Some believe he could enter business full-time, while others wonder whether he might someday become involved in politics. At the moment, however, Barron seems focused mainly on education, personal growth, and private business interests.
Despite constant public curiosity, Barron Trump still appears determined to maintain a very controlled and private lifestyle. He rarely gives public statements, avoids online drama, and almost never engages directly with the media. This approach is unusual in today’s celebrity culture, where many public figures constantly share details about their personal lives online.
Interestingly, this privacy may actually be one reason why people remain so interested in him. Because so little is known about his day-to-day life, every appearance or rumor quickly becomes major online discussion material. Simple photographs or short public moments involving Barron often generate millions of views and comments across social media platforms.
Many supporters of the Trump family see Barron as someone growing into adulthood with discipline and composure despite enormous public attention throughout his life. Others simply remain curious because he represents a younger generation of one of America’s most famous political families. Regardless of political opinions, Barron Trump continues attracting widespread attention whenever he appears publicly.
At the moment, recent reports and public appearances suggest that Barron Trump is healthy, focused, and gradually becoming more involved in business-related projects while still maintaining strong privacy around his personal life. He appears calm, reserved, and increasingly independent as he enters adulthood under constant media attention.
Although many internet rumors continue circulating about him, there is currently no verified information indicating any serious health crisis or major personal problem. Instead, the available public information suggests that he is continuing his education, exploring business opportunities, and remaining close to his family while largely avoiding the spotlight whenever possible.
Overall, Barron Trump remains one of the most talked-about yet mysterious young public figures in America today. His rare appearances, business interests, reserved personality, and connection to the Trump family ensure that public interest surrounding him willlikely continue growing for years to come.
