Bush Hager noted that the former president expressed disappointment with her tattoo choice
Jenna Bush Hager inherited the pranking gene from her family and couldn’t resist trying a few tricks on her father, George W. Bush.
On the May 21 episode of Jenna & Friends, Bush Hager chatted with Today host Savannah Guthrie and revealed that she enlisted her twin sister, Barbara Bush, to play a joke on their father.
“Barbara drew a Texas Longhorn in Sharpie right here,” Bush Hager said while gesturing at her lower back, referring to the logo of her alma mater, the University of Texas at Austin.
“I showed my dad and pretended I got one,” she added. Guthrie remarked, “He believed you … of course,” to which Bush Hager agreed: “He believed me and he was like, ‘OK, when you’re 80, you know what that’s going to look like.’”

A real tattoo is still a possibility for Hager, as Guthrie asked her to join her at her next tattoo appointment. “Would you get a tattoo with me?” Guthrie asked.
“I think I would,” Bush Hager answered hesitantly. “I might — I would maybe … I didn’t say no. I think I would, but I’m not 100% sure.”
Earlier this month, the former president’s daughter detailed Bush’s unlikely friendship with Michelle Obama in an episode with Jenna & Friends and reveal that they strike a bond because they love humor.
Discussing how jokes and teasing make their way into the Bush family, Bush Hager said, “We love to tease my dad. And he likes it, usually, if he’s in a good mood. But also, I just realized why my dad and Mrs. Obama are friends! They have the same love language.”

Bush Hager also shed light on what her mother, Laura Bush, is like with her dad. “My mom laughs hysterically at my dad,” she said of former first lady. “My dad mainly makes fun of himself. He’s self-deprecating, but my mom thinks he’s the funniest person in the entire world.”
