Jenna Bush Hager's spontaneity on Today has earned her legions of loyal fans and viewers delight in the candid conversations on-air between her and co-host, Hoda Kotb.
These chats more often than not, result in Jenna revealing personal stories about herself - some of which are rather embarrassing. But that doesn't bother Jenna at all.
In a new interview with People, the mom-of-three confessed: "I don’t worry about what I share about myself. Frankly, I am a pretty open book."
She added: "In fact I try not to put too much pressure on myself for perfection, because I’m nothing close to that. I find perfection to be wildly boring."
Her down-to-earth attitude makes her an incredibly popular member of the Today team, and Hoda is regularly left in fits of giggles over Jenna's stories.

In the interview, Jenna also opened up about what it was like growing up as the daughter of the 43rd U.S President, George W. Bush.

Jenna didn't enjoy being thrust into the spotlight, but says it's made her more resilient. "The world was expecting us to be perfect," she said when addressing photos of her and Barbara drinking when underage.

"There’s something about growing up and having terrible things said about you, making mistakes publicly, then being able to bounce back and have resilience from that, which has allowed me to feel like I can live a really joyful life," she added: "Because I don’t care what people say."
