‘TODAY’ HOST’S NEXT ACT

- — Alev Aktar

TAMRON Hall is staging a glittering comeback. The former “Today” show co-host and MSNBC anchor, who is partnering with Weinstein Television on a daily daytime talk show, sat next to her new boss Harvey Weinstein at Wednesday’s Marchesa show. She looked ready to celebrate in a sparkly blue dress from the line.

“My birthday is in two days, and Harvey gave me a birthday gift very early — discussion­s about this show, a big vision and big ideas,” she tells The Post, applauding the collection, which was co-designed by Weinstein’s wife, Georgina Chapman.

“I’ve been on TV for 25 years, since I was 18. Now, [as I’m approachin­g] 47, this is where I want to be and where I need to be. I’m just in the happiest place that I’ve been.”

Hall departed NBC News in February, where she hosted “Today’s Take,” after it was announced that her slot was being taken over by Megyn Kelly. Her upcoming show will likely debut next year, she says.

The broadcast journalist, who also hosts “Deadline: Crime with Tamron Hall” on Investigat­ion Discovery, held an event on Tuesday with Net-a-Porter in honor of her sister, Renate, the victim of an unsolved homicide.

“We raised money through fashion for domestic violence awareness,” says Hall. “It’s been a special Fashion Week for that reason, for me. My lip starts to quiver now, I get emotional.”
