The Today show co-anchor is putting on a southern drawl for her newest gig.
She takes on the role of Mrs. Sweetums in a guest spot on Disney Junior's animated series Mickey and the Roadster Racers.
In behind-the-scenes footage of her recording session, Kotb explains, "Mrs. Sweetums has that southern charm because she's pure sugar-sweet."
"She owns a charming candy store bursting with vibrant aromas and sugary treats, and she's such a kind-hearted soul who adores everyone," the 53-year-old mother of 10-month-old Haley Joy shares.
