Kelly Ripa makes everything all about her

Ugh... Michael (her cohost) brought up the whole Clippers owner comment and she was just so ignorant of the whole thing. She said she heard a little about it last night. Then, after Michael had to fight her constant blabbing to get the story out and communicate how he felt, she had to end the segment with talking about how it made her feel. I just found her behavior over the whole thing very annoying. She's got such an easy job and is overpaid as far as I'm concerned.

Kelly has always stayed very neutral about anything controversial. I believe she knew about all of it and just played dumb....she was a soap actress and a lot of what she says and does on the show is acting. And her husband is a big sports fan, so pretending she knew little about it just seemed disingenuous.

Never could watch her. Too tedious.

Since she became the host, I have never watched the show.

Nicole Murphy (Michael's love) was just on. She was trying to tell this interesting story about her run-ins with Prince over the years and Kelly couldn't let her get the story out without once again bringing it back to herself. She's never annoyed me this much.

ITA with what both of you above (serenity and 4OU2) said about her. ETA: Pommom too.

I think Regis was a better match for her because he reigned her in...she can be kind of manic at times and doesn't know when to keep quiet and let the guests speak. I never noticed that as much until Michael hosted with her.

Yes, ITA. She is shockingly unprepared every day. Maybe that's part of her schtick. But the woman just wakes up, rolls in, looks at a few articles/stories her staff have pulled out for her and then speaks extemporaneously for about 17 minutes until the prize drawing. She then relates everything back to herself in any subsequent interviews/segments. She's got the easiest job.

How much do you think she's paid? I'm guessing about 5 million a year.

I agree that she makes everything all about her.

Her job is not easy. Anyone that is very good at their job is also good at making it look easy to everyone else.

I agree with Serenity. Kelly does not get into controversial subjects like politics and current event issues, so she handled it with class, IMO.

I think she does fine, a little too much mugging for her camera but Regis was like watching some grumpy scrooge wait for his laxative to kick in. "The Regis", please! Some days he was just on the verge of having a toddler breakdown.

IMO the show is much the same with Michael Gelman sitting just off camera dictating what happened on Regis''s show and Kelly's show.

I thought Nicole Murphy was far more obnoxious (and full of herself) than Kelly R.

Ms Murphy has been engaged to Michael S for a long time. (talk about wondering whether or not they will ever marry) She's seems to enjoy being known as Eddie Murphy's former (cannot use ""ex"" next to Murphy's) as opposed to Michael S's present.

Over the years the tabloids have printed some ""interesting"" stories about her and her men.

Oh my gosh was that ever funny! So true!!

I love Regis but that was a good one!

I don't watch the show, but that's what celebs do, talk about themselves. I turned the news off several channels yesterday as everyone was giving their views on the subject.

I didn't see today's show but I think she's fine.....she and Michael have a great on air chemistry and I think it works.

Isn't the first 15 mins or so of the show about THEM and what they did or do? Then they bring in some current headlines and chit chat about them? It's not a news show....it's an entertainment show (IMO) and that's just what they do......Entertain. JMHO

If it's not your schtick there are so many other shows that are more newsy.
