Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager don jeweled bras and feather headpieces as they try their hand at BURLESQUE dancing during wild trip to New Orleans - before taking to the streets to down shots with locals

Today hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager transformed into sexy burlesque dancers complete with bejeweled bras and glamorous headpieces as they let their hair down in New Orleans on Wednesday.

Hoda, 59, and Jenna, 42, made the most of being child-free as soon as they touched down in the Louisiana city and headed straight to Trixie’s Burlesque Boutique for a masterclass in how to shake their feathers.

In a montage video shared on Instagram, mother-of-three Jenna could be seen emerging out of a gigantic white and gold cake statue wearing a silver embellished bra with long white satin gloves and a dramatic headpiece, complete with more jewels and large pink feathers.

Mother-of-two Hoda donned the exact same attire and teased 'something is happening' as behind-the-scenes footage showed her and Jenna gyrating their hips and stroking their thighs, before attempting to seductively remove their satin gloves using their teeth.

The ladies were greeted by dancers Trixie Minx and Jeez Loueez, who taught them some key moves in front of a full-length mirror, with Hoda dressed in a sleek navy blue jumpsuit, and Jenna opting for a blue and white strappy dress.

Armed with their new burlesque stage names - Hoda as 'Coco' and Jenna as 'Kitty Bush' - the ladies made their grand debut and changed into their dazzling silver bras - but wore black tank tops underneath to ensure that they didn't flash too much flesh - as they put on a show.

As Trixie introduced them, Hoda strutted out from behind a gold sequin curtain and sauntered towards the camera before stroking her right thigh and whipping her gloves off using her mouth.

Opting to go barefoot for the routine, Hoda lifted her leg up and started shimmying as Jenna popped up and threw her arms in the air before attempting to remove her glove with her teeth as well.

Following their dance lesson, the ladies headed back outside and ended up crashing one woman's bachelorette party in the street and then headed to the Mother-in-Law lounge where they enjoyed some drinks and live music from Grammy Award winner Irvin Mayfield.

On Thursday afternoon, Hoda shared several snaps from the live show they hosted in the morning - including a snap of her and Jenna with the musicians.

She captioned the post: 'That’s a wrap on day one in The Big Easy. Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us today! Tune in tomorrow for more incredible food, music and fun!'

Fans were quick to comment on the photos, as on person said: 'Great show and Hoda you GLOW! Jenna your outfit was fantastic! You both embraced the spirit of New Orleans!'

The TV hosts were also seen stroking their thighs as they practiced their moves at Trixie’s Burlesque Boutique

Another said: 'Y'all are toooo darn cute,' and a third commented: 'Thx for posting!  Glad you're enjoying your trip! Thx for always making me smile. Love your positivity!!!'

During Thursday's live show, Hoda claimed 'New Orleans is the place for people to come to get sane', as she and Jenna reminisced about how much fun they'd already had since arriving on Wednesday - including doing shots in a dive bar. 

'I think what New Orleans does is it takes all of us that think we need ten hours of sleep and says, "no you don't!" Jenna shouted, before joking that she was 'trying to help Hoda get married'.

A short while later, the two women shocked their live audience in the French Quarter when they revealed that their surprise guest was none other than former NFL player Drew Brees. 

In a particularly touching moment which saw Hoda wiping away tears, Drew's biggest fan - a woman named Kathy - got the chance to meet him live on air and couldn't stop screaming when the former New Orleans Saints star presented her with game tickets, including field passes, as well as a goody bag.

The hosts then took part in a New Orleans related quiz with Drew, 45, and also enjoyed a live cooking demonstration with award-winning chef Nina Compton who cooked some delicious jerk shrimp. 

Earlier on in the day, Hoda had posted a video which showed her and Jenna on the 'party train' as they sat in the back of a minivan dancing and clapping their hands.

The TV stars are in New Orleans to enjoy the French Quarter Festival which runs from April 11 - 14, and fans were loving their content on Instagram.

'Welcome home Hoda! Nola misses you!' one person wrote, referring to the fact that Hoda used to live there.

'Love you ladies. Party on down south,' another fan said, while a third commented: 'You two are the best, watch out NOLA!'

Jeez Loueez, the burlesque star who led the masterclass for Hoda and Jenna, wrote on the post: 'This was SO FUN!!!!!!! Thanks for coming to New Orleans!!!' 

When Jenna shared the 'party train' video on her Instagram, she told her 1.4 million followers: 'Back in our fav city and of course Cowboy Carter is on repeat. TUNE IN TO @hodaandjenna TOMORROW! Sponsored by @neworleansandco.'

One fan joked: 'I am saying there may be alcohol involved in the making of this video,' and another commented: 'i just love y’all both so much.'

A third person added: 'Oh I love you guys so much!!! I am so tempted to drive down to NOLA! I want to meet two of the most precious people ever! Y’all look like so much fun!!!'
