Hoda Kotb had an emotional moment on Friday's show. The 55-year-old morning show co-anchor is still working from the NBC studio in New York City while most of her co-workers film the show from their homes amid the coronavirus outbreak.
On Friday, Kotb was visibly upset as she concluded an interview with NFL pro Drew Brees about his donation of $5 million to Louisiana coronavirus relief. «I think a lot of things are contagious, including generosity,» Kotb told Brees. «Our hope is that because you let us know that you made this big generous donation, I think other people say, 'Hey, maybe I can help out too.'» As soon as Brees' interview had ended, Kotb couldn't hold back her tears any longer.
