Sources tell Page Six Kotb will make seven million dollars a year - around 18 million less than Lauer. A show insider says Hoda isn't complaining.

One key reason the law passed is that almost half of Iceland's members of parliament are women. It's all part of the island nation's plan to erase the pay gap by 2022.
