Out with the old: Tamron Hall breaks her silence in video thanking her fans and revealing that she has been hard at work cleaning her closet in the days since she quit NBC after 10 years on air

Tamron Hall is breaking her silence and speaking out for the first time since quitting NBC in a video posted on her Twitter account Thursday afternoon.

In the video, a camera ready Hall takes some time to thank fans for their support and also shares what she has been up to since walking away after a storied 10-year career as a host on both NBC and MSNBC.

'OK, what have I been doing all day today?' says Hall at the beginning of the video, which she filmed inside her walk-in closet while outfitted in some designer pajamas.

'First of all, thank you guys so much for all your sweet social media messages. It’s meant so much to me.'

A smiling and energetic Hall, 47, then reveals that she has spent the first two days of her unexpected time off from work doing a task dreaded by many - cleaning her closet.

Hall's decision to rid herself of some of her excess designer shoes and clothing comes just one day after news broke that despite a contract offering her millions, Hall had chosen to pass on staying at NBC after they informed her last Friday that her Today time slot would be going to incoming host Megyn Kelly later this year.

Among the items being purged from Hall's immaculate looking closet were Jimmy Choo and Christian Louboutin  shoes and even some dresses that might be familiar to Today viewers.

Her loss is soon to be someone else's gain however as she explains in the video that she will be handing off the bags full of designer duds she is riding herself of to Housing Works, a non-profit that operates a number of thrift stores in New York City.

The money made by the organization goes to help those living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. 

'I’ve got work clothes. I’ve got party clothes. I have packed up a mother lode, heading to Housing Works to donate all these things,' says Hall, standing in front of three very large and very stuffed bags. 

'Hopefully, you will support them. It’s an amazing organization.'

Hall then signed off with a wave and a kiss, and wrote when posting the video: 'Today was a good day!!! Thank y'all so much. #tamcam'

This is not the first time Hall has documented how fabulous her day has been since her exit from Today, with the popular host also posting to Instagram and Snapchat on Tuesday after taping her final show.

She started off the day by posting a photograph of herself with Harry Connick Jr. and Keke Pamer on Instagram, which she snapped during her fianl hour behin the Today anchor desk.

'Thank you #kekepalmer and #harryconnickjr for making this morning so fun. The gag is ... @alroker was just a few steps away but missed out on this picture lol,' wrote Hall.

From there she headed over to Bergdorf Goodman for a Dolce & Gabbana event, and took some time to pose with the Adonis-like cater waiters who were on hand to tend to the needs of the fashionable crowd.

Then, to cap off what was no doubt a very bittersweet day, Hall posted a video on Snapchat of her and a few girlfriends sitting in the back of a car and singing along to The Four Seasons classic 'Who Loves You.'

Hall wrote: 'Who's gonna love you. Me!! And these crazy girls.'

Another person  who very much loves Hall it appears is her co-host Al Roker, who paid tribute to his partner in crime while hosting their show without her on Thursday 

'As some of you may have heard by now, our good friend Tamron Hall has decided to leave NBC News, ' said Roker.

'Personally, Tamron has been not just a co-host here on Today’s Take for the past three years but a good friend. And not just to me, to all of us here.'

Roker then added: 'We want to wish her nothing but the best, much continued success and cannot wait to see what her next chapter is.'

Sheinelle Jones, the host of Weekend Today and MNBC Live who was filling in on Thursday, then added: 'She’s going to rock it, no matter what she does.'

Roker also wrote on Twitter last week that the show has been the top-rated morning news program in its time slot for seven straight weeks.

In a statement on Wednesday, NBC hailed Hall as an 'exceptional journalist' while stressing that it was her decision to walk away.

'We are disappointed that she has chosen to leave, but we wish her all the best,' said the network. 

A source familiar with the discussions between Hall and the NBC told DailyMail.com: 'NBC News very much wanted Tamron to stay, she was offered a multi-million dollar/multi-year contract and she chose to go.

It takes two: 'Personally, Tamron has been not just a co-host here on Today’s Take for the past three years but a good friend. And not just to me, to all of us here,' said Roker (above with Hall in 2016) on Thursday

New kid on the block: Hall's decision came after she was informed that she and Al Roker were being taken off the third hour of Today and replaced by Megyn Kelly

Backlash: 'Not a good way to start Black History Month @ NBC letting @TamronHall go. Who's next.... @AlRoker?' wrote one Twitter user

Hall has long been one of the hardest working personalities on the network, and in the past two months had filled in for both Savannah Guthrie on Today and Lester Holt on NBC World News Tonight while also anchoring the third hour of Today.

On one day in December she filled in for both Guthrie and Hall while also hosting MSNBC Live.

She also hosted Deadline: Crime on Investigation Discovery and Dateline Extra on MSNBC, as well as lending her on-air talents to NBC's coverage of the Westminster Dog Show.

Roker will now anchor the third hour of Today until the show debuts their new morning lineup this fall.

Unlike Hall however, the meteorologist already had a steady gig on Today, and will continue to appear on the program's first two hours when Kelly arrives on the scene. 

The news of Hall's departure also caused outrage among many on social media.

That is due in large part to the fact that Hall and Roker, two African-Americans, are being moved out of the time slot to bring in Kelly, a white woman.

'Not a good way to start Black History Month @ NBC letting @TamronHall go. Who's next.... @AlRoker?' wrote one woman on Twitter.

Many on Twitter had that same thought, with some also going after Kelly in their comments, who was called everything from a 'racist apologist' to 'the racist "santa is white" b****.' 

And one man wrote: 'NBC purging black faces. If they had any clue, @TamronHall would be co-hosting Today.'

There is still no word on where Hall may be heading next, and how long she might have to stay off the air due to any non-compete clauses in her NBC contract.

Meanwhile, the National Association of Black Journalists has requested a meeting with NBC to discuss the 'whitewashing' of the network.
