Kelly Ripa’s Body Gets Attention During Halloween Special
Kelly Ripa’s body has been getting a lot of attention recently. The Live host was recently caught backstage in between costume changes during the show’s annual Halloween event.
Every year, Kelly and her co-host change into various Halloween costumes to celebrate the October holiday. This year, Kelly and her husband, Mark Consuelos, took on several costume changes.
They appeared as Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, Sonny and Cher, and Barbie and Ken. The Live hosts also spoofed The Golden Bachelor in a pretaped skit and Kelly even appeared as Jennifer Coolidge in White Lotus.

Typically, their costume changes happen during the commercial breaks on Live. However, one of the members of the camera crew decided to film a “behind the scenes” moment during the Halloween event to share on Instagram Stories.
“Another quick change,” the clip was captioned. The camera initially showed Mark and the show’s producer Michael Gelman backstage. Then they ventured into Kelly Ripa’s changing room.
You could see Kelly sitting in a chair with a wig cap on, waiting for her next hairdo for the show. She was also wearing a very small white tank top and barely-there gray shorts.
Seeming to have made a mistake, the camera cut away from Kelly quickly and refocused on the show’s producer.
Kelly Calls Out Guest For Mocking Her Body On Air
The show’s shopping contributor Monica Mangin was on Friday’s show talking about Rhonda Shear bras. “You know, just listen to this one, Mark. Kelly, this one is important to you,” Monica said, handing Kelly a purple bra.
Monica informed the show’s hosts that it was called the “Ahh Bra” due to its stretchy nature. “So you don’t have to worry about 36D, 36C, A, negative A, whatever,” she said. The bra will fit just about any size perfectly.

Noticing what Monica said, Kelly quickly cut in the conversation asking her, “Why did you look at me when you said negative A?” Kelly is known for her petite frame, so it was clear what she was alluding to.
The shopping contributor shrugged it off, laughing. “I didn’t, and that doesn’t even exist,” she told Kelly Ripa. The awkward moment passed quickly though as the pair went on to scope out some men’s clothing.
Do you think shopping contributor Monica Mangin was referring to Kelly when she mentioned “negative A” or was it just a misunderstanding? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
