DESPERATE FOR A DATE!

Whoa, Hoda! Ever since the end of her engagement to financier Joel Schiffman,

Hoda Kotb has been hot to trot. And sources tell Star friends worry she’s putting herself a little too out there.

“She’s flirting up a storm with taxi drivers, doorman, construction workers, anyone,” says an insider. “Anyone to boost up her flagging ego.”

Whether she’s looking for Mr. Right or Mr. Right now, the mom-of-of two, single since January, has also been asking pals to set her up. “She’s not finicky about who she meets,” says the insider. “She’s even thinking of joining a dating app.”

Deep down, though, the 57-year-old is still hoping to reconcile with her ex, her partner since 2013. “She hasn’t ruled out hope,” confirms the insider. “But in the meantime, she needs some loving soon!” ★
