It started with a hypothetical question: If you could name a celebrity as your emergency contact, who would it be?<\/p>\n

The lighthearted prompt quickly turned into a sweet moment when Sheinelle Jones surprised her TODAY co-host Jenna Bush Hager by naming her as person she’d trust to help her through any crisis.<\/p>\n

“Mine would be you,” Sheinelle said.<\/p>\n

“I mean that sincerely,” she added, explaining that Jenna has a knack for navigating difficult situations without ever missing a beat.”<\/p>\n

“Whatever it is, you just handle it.”<\/p>\n

Jenna said that Sheinelle would top her list, too, but if she had to pick a celebrity, she’d choose Oprah Winfrey to come to her rescue if she were ever in a bind. She had already imagined exactly how Oprah would show up .<\/p>\n

“I feel like she’d come in a helicopter,” Jenna said. “She’d bring me sunflowers from her garden, maybe some fresh grown vegetables, and she’d have a book on hand.”<\/p>\n

The exchange was another glimpse into the close bond the two women have built on and off camera.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Good Housekeeping<\/a> earlier this year about joining Jenna for the fourth hour of TODAY, Sheinelle said the show’s dynamic is noticeably different from the third hour, where she previously co-hosted alongside Al Roker, Craig Melvin, and Dylan Dreyer.<\/p>\n

“The dynamics are different,” she said the outlet. “We always tease each other that Al is kind of like our uncle, Craig is like my little brother because I’m a year older than him, and Dylan was like my sister.”<\/p>\n

By comparison, Sheinelle said her relationship with Jenna feels different.<\/p>\n

“The fourth hour is, to me, more of a sisterhood and friendship,” she said. “The kinds of things Jenna and I talk about and hold space for is not the kind of content done on the third hour.”<\/p>\n
