'Live' Kelly Ripa Contemplating New Look, Says 'Calm Down'

Kelly Ripa uses her show to contemplate a new look. However, this leads to her telling her audience to “calm down.” Live With Kelly and Mark switched things up a little bit recently as Ripa decided to discuss her appearance.

What Is Kelly Ripa Doing Now?

Kelly Ripa is a TV personality who is best known for her talk show, Live With Kelly and Mark. The show has been on for 29 seasons with different co-hosts. Previously, the show was Live with Kelly and Ryan, but her co-host left the show to pursue other opportunities. The name in the new title, Mark refers to her husband and actor, Mark Consuelos.

The name from the previous title, Ryan refers to the host of American Idol and the new host of Wheel of Fortune, Ryan Seacrest. Ripa is known for not keeping anything private as she has discussed many things in her series like how her kids periodically block her from seeing their Instagrams and her sex life with her husband.

Speaking of her children, Ripa is currently experiencing empty nest syndrome as the 53-year-old has three older kids. Lola, Michael Joseph, and Joaquin Antonio. At 23, 27, and 21, all three kids have their father’s last name and don’t live at home. One kid has requested that Ripa and Consuelos don’t even use his name to discuss him in media.

A Lively Debate

On a Thursday morning episode of Live With Kelly and Mark, Ripa took the opportunity to discuss a topic she had been debating for a while. Keeping the audience on the edge of their seats and ready to engage, Ripa revealed that she is deciding whether or not to get bangs.

Furthermore, Ripa wanted to use a quiz from France to determine if bangs were suitable for her face. Additionally, the actress asked for help from Mark and the audience. When discussing her unsureness surrounding the commitment to the bangs, Mark noted that it would most likely be a “six to seven months commitment.”

As the audience joined in on the debate, Ripa engaged with the audience a little extra asking, “Can I get out of my chair?” Fans began to get a little chaotic as Ripa moved out to the audience to study the face shape of an audience member.

With the audience murmuring in excitement Ripa jokingly said, “Okay everybody, calm down!” Additionally, the TV show hosts heard from a woman who said she was, “Hiding behind my bangs.” Unafraid, the eccentric actress said, “I need bangs! To complete my personality because I am already a person who is hiding behind my house.”

Changing her color and length of hair has never been a problem for Ripa. Furthermore, Ripa had reportedly even participated in a challenge of not washing her hair for two weeks this past May to help with oiliness.

The talk show host explained to her husband that she only “applied oil to the ends. She expressed how “‘The first three days, your hair looks disgusting. But then, something happens, where it suddenly looks amazing… It’s settled into its dirtiness.'”
