Getty Images Tamron Hall once walked away from a $2 million a year contract with NBC. The 55-year-old two-time Daytime Emmy-winning television host sat down for an interview with Scott Evans on his House Guest series and revealed the details behind her 2017 NBC exit. Tamron joined Today's third hour alongside Natalie Morales, Al Roker, and Willie Geist in 2014, becoming the first Black woman to co-anchor on the show. However, in 2017, NBC gave her co-hosting slot to Megyn Kelly and instead of taking on a smaller role, Tamron chose to leave. Megyn's time on Today was over after just 1 year.
