Kelly Ripa was a no-show one day after her Live with Kelly & Michael co-host Michael Strahan announced he was abandoning their popular daytime talk show for a more lucrative contract at ABC’s Good Morning America.
“I am leaving this show,” Strahan announced on Tuesday. “I know,” he said as the studio audience groaned.
Ripa’s unexplained absence on Wednesday led to reports that she is angry at Strahan for not informing her in advance of his plans to leave. And more importantly, she’s mad that she isn’t going with him.
“Kelly’s off today,” Strahan announced bluntly this morning. He offered no explanation for her absence.
The Daily Mail reports that ABC sources state Ripa is “refusing to turn up to work,” and she won’t return until after Strahan leaves for Good Morning America this week.
A network source told The Daily Beast that Ripa will be off on Friday and was previously scheduled to be off next Monday.
Not a flattering pic of her. Congrats to Michael he making big moves ain’t mad at you.
I thought he didn’t announce it on the show…that he told Kelly and Gelman after yesterday’s show and right before the press release.
Well damn…
She doesn’t run ABC. She better sit her 98lbs ass down before she is replaced too
She better own that show and become a breakout star. She don’t want to end up co-hosting on The View, The Talk or IDK the other name of the full panel of women show that comes on. She better “WERK BITCH!”
Mikey doesn’t go to GMA until fall…she’s not showing up until FALL?
Congrats to Michael. I’ve had coworkers upset that I was leaving a job … But I have yet to have one of them volunteer to pay my bills and provide for me … Bye Kelly.
I hope she ain’t that petty I always felt like she wanted to bone Michael. I’m happy for him and his endeavors I watch GMA every morning even my 8 year old enjoy the show
She gone fugg around and end up sharing the stage, spotlight and doubling out the janitor’s closet as a dressing room with five other folks if she don’t get it together. Don’t let them coins go to yo head now, bitch.
I so wish I was a decision maker for this show, “Dear Kelly, goodbye.”
Congrats to Michael, he only owes an explanation to himself.
She’ll be okay by Tuesday or they’ll find two new hosts
I wonder will he just end up not coming back to the show. Make up an excuse. It’s been done.
…come on Kelly, get it together. Make the show yours instead of running off and pouting like a little kid.
september to be specific
sandra and her alligator arms
Last job I left ppl looked at me like who did I think I was…someone who knows when it’s time to move up and out. Deuces!
My bf used to have me cracking up about these two. He would say Kelly tryna throw that boney puzz at Mike ????…Maybe that’s why she mad ??
She is not a happy camper.
I wonder did he boink her and now she’s all up in her feelings?
Exactly.
Ok…look. Michael Strahan doesn’t start at GMA full time until September. The plan is he will exit Live over the summer, NOT at the end of the week. The source needs to check Google and get his or her facts straight.
Can I say I always love it when folks start out in one field and SUCESSFULLY transition to another. Athletes, singers, rappers, etc. A reminder that you don’t have to be boxed in by folk’s expectations, you can always change your life’s course.
You know she want it
Gotta go find food. Kelly just reminded me.
Bingo! Regis aged out and Strahan got a better offer. Why does she even need a male co-host? It should always be her and guest hosts.
Saddest ish is when you work around people who forget they were never slaves in the first place.
Tell my daughter this ALL THE TIME….”Never live up to the expectations and limitations that someone ELSE puts on you.”
If he has hit that before, then she would be extra mad thinking that they had a personal connection so he shouldn’t have blind sided her.
Michael Strahan announced he was abandoning their popular daytime talk show for a more lucrative contract at ABC’s Good Morning America.
====================================
I don’t blame him for leaving…not one bit.
Damn meddling ass intern. LOL
Yep, they can’t resist the big, black D……
It really is inspiring!
Until you are your own boss never get comfortable. You are ALWAYS replaceable. Acting like your shoe size.
Girl I’m starting a new job next week I’m yet to give notice for many reasons I know it may seem unprofessional but ??
I believe he hit and she got sprung, probably was stalking him lol who knows.
Question is did he leave it in his contract to do Fox Sports?
He slid that cl!t through that goal post between his teeth and gave her the BIZNESS!
I hope so cuz I enjoy his commentary on there…
He sucked that grisle of a cl!t tweenst that goal post gap and now she’s sprung.
Or until you are sleeping with the head boss like Julie Chen.
CTFU!
THIS! Get them coints, girl. “Best revenge is yo papah.”
I read yesterday that he would continue to do his Fox job.
Alligator arms ??????
He dew be looking like he handles his business. Can’t even front.
More that one iron in the fiyah!
No, he announced yesterday on the show.
I am not mad at him, the Chairman of DISNEY – who owns ABC, ESPN,
called him PERSONALLY.
He should have given her the ” heads up” though.
Multiple streams of income. Smart thinking.
ROFL!! Somebody come help my ole azz off this floor.
??????
I give her something EVERYDAY to “grow” on. EVERYDAY!
yoni log off now ?????
She married SMART in regards to her career, didn’t she? That 66mil a year doesn’t hurt either.
?? true.
Yes, I read that he will still be doing his sports gig.
Always! Make it a thing to have a different (surprise) guest host. Build the show on that. Make it a contest to have ppl win and host with her. WHO else does their show like this? NOBODY! They better give me my credit when they do start too. LOL
SEW HARRIET TUBMAN IS REPLACING ANDREW JACKSON ON THE $20 BILL! THOUGHTS??? I THINK I HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, BUT THOUGHT IT WASN’T TRUE…
That man motivated to make his coins. He should be after the ex wife took him to the cleaners.
Kelly comes off as a person who thinks they own you after telling themselves they made you…Bish you ain’t Ike!
FOH.
Congrats and good luck!
My yahoo alert just sent this memo. If true, I applaud it.
She married BRILLIANT! I mean, who’s gonna fire the boss’ wife. Smart, smart move on her part.
I always joked him and Dr. Ian were in a love affair.
I have nothing for this, but I find Mikey so damn sexy, gap and all!
Is she big mad or little mad? LMBO, Kelly better take her tail to work and stop being like that. That man have to do what’s best for him Heck she better be trying to make sure she has some options as well.
Several other folks made the same joke. LOL! Remember Dr. Ian on Celebrity Fit Club? I used to like that show.
Love what u said. My motivation!!!
Awesome and huge step. It’s true from what I gathered.
Ummm, no he didn’t. The news was announced in a staff memo yesterday. He did not announce it on the show until today.
LOL that was the rumor going around.
This is business, not personal. He’s also not leaving until September so it’s not like he didn’t give her notice.
Hey Yall!
Welp I found out why Im always upbeat, friendly and nice.. I’m “A Positive” person Get it?! …<—trying to put a positive spin on this bullshyt my body taking me though…smh..fake grin…
Congrats Mel. You petty! Just kidding. Also, I’m a guy so (State Farm Commercial). But congrats on the new job.
Disney crushed her Mandigo sidepiece fantasy, and Mike moved on w/a big payday, so Kelly at home like…
Ripa knew that they were a great team. She will never get that type of team again. Although I always though he was was sort of corny and often sounded like he had marbles in his mouth.
I’ll have to see it to believe it in this country
New post
So rumor is already buzzing that Neal Patrick Harris might be the next new host.
Giggles
Another Wut on the way?
Yeah…I don’t like him lol.
Don’t be fearful. If you can get off the plantation good for you. It’s not impossible we had businesses in abundance before we was integrated.
Kelly stays mad! Her name is first now, just add somebody ! It wasn’t his job to inform her , she must have thought they were bes frans! ???
Gay community hates her ass after she made comments towards I wanna say Clay aiken
Oops my bad blue lmao that commercial cracks me up …Thank you btw they gon learn not to cross a bish I bet they ain’t finna hire another colored girl after this
Noooooo! His OWN show got canceled
Mike Strahan is sooo fine to me..his gap in his teeth and everything lol.
So true. And that is exactly how I be feeling sometime, like I’m on a modern day plantation. I’m an working on it and pray it can happen by the end of this year to early next year. I was meant to be my own boss.
Feel better soon.
Hey WUT! What’s wrong?
I didn’t like him in Gone Girl….just because I knew he didn’t enjoy that sex scene. #petty The movie was good tho’.
I’ve also heard Anderson Cooper. Best believe it will be someone from that community. They’ve had females and a black host….. They got next.
The drama these people.
No..heyal NO!!! LOL..Passed out at work chile.. I was having heart palpitations for the past few days. My Iron was a 6..normal is 13-17..low acceptable is around 9. They admitted me immediately..1 because it was low and 2 I am on my cycle and they feared it would get lower…so they gave me a transfusion..
$200,000 pyramid game show also
Oh no! Do they now they cause?
I don’t see Anderson signing up for this full time.
Hahahahaha. Messed up for the next one. You doing what u gotta do though. Happy for you.
I hope not. Hes a pain.
Omg WUT. Prayers to you and get well soon.
I heard Andy Cohen is also in the runny.
Wow. I hope you’re on the mend now. Prayers for your healing.
He LURNT that day……in court, didn’t he. LOL
Blood levels got so low I passed out at work yesterday. I was having heart palpitations so strong the flubs were causing me to cough. All I remember was standing up to go to the bathroom and the next people hovering saying the medics on the way..
That’s because you are. None of this shit is normal. None of it. Economic slavery at its finest. Give you just enough to come back for more. You will be your own boss. Speak it into existence. This will be my last full year working for someone else. Congrats on free thinking and good luck ?
I don’t care about either one of them but I am in a messy mood today so I am here for any speculation, drama, tall tales, and outright lies about what’s going here. continue….
yeah we discussed it downstairs and Trump supporters are having bytch fits *rolls eyes*
Andy gets on my nerves sometimes.
There are no flattering pics of that skin and bones hag.
She needs to go on a burger diet-a burger with every meal until she reaches 100lbs.
Oh no………glad that it was not worse. Have they determined why they fell so low?
Im Iron anemic anyway. But this is the worst it has been. They are suspecting the fibroids that have increased in size in my uterus which is causing the heavier cycles.. but the iron pills aren’t keep up with the demand. So far they are planning to set me up with a cardo doc to check my heart and I have to make an appt with my obgyn. follow up..
I like Andy and his shade.
Is he really bi?
Maaaannnn…
Is he??? oh if he is, that takes away from his sexy factor
Yoni! Take yo behind in the house! *screams and cackles!* I’m through! Buenos Tardes, Ma’am.
???
(plops down next to you)GA,i always felt they were effing anyway?
Im anemic..always have been. But this is the worst. They suspect the fibroids are creating the heavier flow. But they are checking everything. They are lining up a cardo to check my heart as well because of the irregularity
Now I like Andy and might watch the show
Truth?
I had an interview this morning and the job has nothing to do with what I’ve just completed school for…while driving to the place, I kept telling self “It’s not what you want, but maybe something you need for the time being.” Thinking that way keeps it all in perspective and I’m so with you, BEYOND ready to work for my got damn self.
Prayers boo.
Like those people who sit around waiting for praises from folks…….what you need all that for- validation? You should have been validated when they hired you. Shoot I done seen doctors get replaced and led out in handcuffs!!
idk I heard he was and was just curious
Thanks. I am about to crash back to sleep. LOL. Just got woke up and made to eat my gross hospillah food.. (it was cold cuz I was sleep when it came)..See yall later love yall!!!
Wut Wut ……
Shuga you had better be playing….is that why him and his wife not together?
?Well dang what did she do to you. Lol
Thank God you’re ok.
Hugs hey bewski. Bout to go back to sleep and try to get some rest before these folks come pokin on me again.. See ya later!
Okay please believe it
You are going to have to make a decision about those things eventually hun. You can’t keep living like this and it is now really affecting your health. I’ll say a prayer for you.
Congrats to you too!! and I wish you the best and much success!!! And I surely will keep speaking it out loud to myself until it happens !!
Time to rise up like the Queens we are. This ain’t what they died for. We all been there where we’re like it might lead to something else. Nah boo. Find your passion and conquer.
Loved him on Blackish last season…
Tall tales! That’s awesome!!!
What…she thought he was going to stay for her. Put your big girl panties on. That’s not your homie lover friend. It’s your coworker. Get over yourself.
?? you better because what you put forth and work for will come back. I’m amazed at the support I received when I finally became confident in what I want. Let’s stay up and keep the positive vibes going.
Agreed, the honcho’s at ABC kept Kelly and Gelman in the dark for a reason.Her and the show’s producers shady send off to Micheal speak volumes!! I guess Kelly is not as important as she thought she was!!
I’m anemic too. I have to take meds for the first 3 days of my cycle. It’s called Lysteda, if you’re interested.
OMG Wut, I hope you feel better soon:( Take care of yourself.
That great, Miss Harlem! Good for you! I wish you the best with your next phase in life.
NUH UH RUDENESS! :CHASE: I JUST GOT TO WORK NOT TOO LONG AGO…DON’T BE THAT WAY SUGAR FOOT -KEVIN HART VOICE-
I needed this, thank you.
?
Exactly!!!!!
Some jobs are like that you don’t want tell them ish but today is my last day. Why not burn that bridge it’s not like you coming back to that job AND you not using them for a reference. I don’t even blame you.
WILD N!!!
Right I’m in the same boat it’s not the job I wanted or went to school for but the experience and additional job skills will look nice on a resume. It shows you are flexible in leaning IMO
I will bring this up to my OBGYN..I had no idea what this was doing to my body..I was wondering why my hair was thinning and my nails were becoming brittle..
My sister always thought the chemistry between them was strained. I guess if it wasn’t, it sure is now…if these reports are true.
The Dr. here suggested I talk to my Gyn about a Hysterectomy.. but Im scare of it. Im thinking more of fibroid embolization..
Sandra three scape goats have been arrested in Flint water crisis
I agree. And I’ve came across a few folks who have helped answer questions or point me in the right direction a time or two. Yes, I agree stay positive!!!
Awww thanks. I just got tired of complaining about work and doing it.
You can always count on me to be encouraging when talking about personal wealth.
I’m here for NPH!!!
I didn’t really like it with Mike and I rides for him.
It was to campy.
Mike had 3 jobs, I’m not mad he cut it to two …lol
Try the fibroid embolization, however they still have the ability to return. If this doesn’t work, a hysterectomy is not the end of the word. If you get the larascopic hysterectomy, there is not large scar across your belly and the recovery time is shorter. What is your fear, your sex life? Mine is actually better, and I still function sexually just as good, if not better, than before the surgery. I know 2 women who underwent the embolization (1 did it twice and the other only did it once) and they eventually had to get a hysterectomy. Hope this helps
Kelly has always struck me as a cry baby and a Petty Betty.
Funny as hell!!! Lmbo!!!
The Daily Mail reports that ABC sources state Ripa is “refusing to turn up to work,” and she won’t return until after Strahan leaves for Good Morning America this week.
___________________________
This is where the story derails for me because the story I heard is MS doesn’t officially start GMA until September. So Kelly not going to work for that long will cause her to lose her job.
There are very little flattering pics of Kelly. She’s too skinny. She had more weight on her when my mom used to watch All My Children.
LOL!
CHRIS HARDWICK FROM TALKING DEAD ANYONE? ANYONE?? NOT THAT I’VE HEARD…HE JUST KINDA FITS IN WITH ANDY AND NEIL -SHRUGS-
???
-SAD FACE-
I’VE BEEN SCROLLING FOR YOU…2 OF 3 LOWS HAVE STREP. JUST WHAT I NEEDED! UGH
Maybe her husband will replace MS
When I used to watch this show I liked Michael because he wasn’t afraid to be Black. He didn’t let them whitewash his life experiences and I appreciated that about him. (I know he has bi-racial children, but he also has Black children.)
??
Hey some people just rub you the wrong way even if you don’t know them personally.
Well…~smacks lips~
Where the hayle is Regis? Is he alive?
I’m a die hard Live Kelly & Michael fan and I heard that he won’t be leaving till Fall. Not sure why they said she won’t return until he leaves, thats not true! Been watching that morning show since my college days when Kathie Lee Gifford and Regis was on lol. Yeah, I am dedicated to that show lol. I wonder who will replace him because I LOVED their chemistry together! Just when I was getting used to him too…dang!
Kelly drinks like a fish…allegedly. That heffa somewhere in a bottle until next week. ?
Yep!
Uggghhh! That’s HORRIBLE! As if you didn’t have enough going on. Are you home the rest of the week? (And next time send an email.)
You mean Kathy???
Oh wow..Thanks this make it easier. I have had two sisters have it and they said the same their sex life (yew know I was concerned) is better now.. Thanks
Eww! Quarantine.
Hope they feel better ?
Ultimately it’s hard being a black person in America. He doesn’t owe Kelly Ripa anything lol… Take that promotion, and prosper.
I was a little peeved when she revealed on her show a former job told her she would advance her career if she had her eyelids widen…and she went on to have the surgery.
I do the same. ~chest bumps you~
A lot of Asians elect to have that surgery. Shame that anyone thinks it makes a difference.
? You know what…?
Nope. Not tuhdae. ?
~mad I thought about it~
BRAIN AIN’T WORKING RIGHT…I NEED TO BE, BUT I LEFT EARLY. I HAVE LESS THAN A DAY IN PTO RIGHT NOW. I GOT THEM TO SICK CLINIC AND DROPPED OFF SO I CAN DO HALF A DAY. THEY GO BACK FRIDAY…I’LL HIT YOU UP SOON!
CHILE ME TEW…THE CRAMPS TRYNA SEND ME OVER THE EDGE. IT’S TEWWW MUCH!!!!
Uggggh. Someone make her STAWP!
Yep he don’t deserve any respect Imma send them in panic mode my number already changed I got the passwords to dam near errything in here and the mailbox key I’m taking ????? good luck to them
???
Dang. You got company in for a while too?
Mmmp.
:FACEMFPALM:
Chile look.
Exactly. I would have been at work today & after he announced that he was leaving I would have stretched my arms wide & said…welcome to the Kelly rippa show world. I would have been showing all 32 pearly whites.
huh?!?!
that’s what everyone says but I want to know as well
Nice!! Lol
I MISSED IT I GUESS…YEW SAID IT WAS PREVIOUSLY DISCUSSED – I SED “DON’T BE CRUEL….I JUST GOT IN AND MISSED THE FIRST ROUND” – NOW WE HERE…IS THIS ACCURATE OR NAH?
Exactly! Strahan was perfect for that show. It’s the only reason it won it’s first Emmy. Kelly should have been notified before anyone. Since she is really the star of that show. It’s kinda like a stab in the back to her. But that’s the entertainment industry.
Look how they got rid of Regis because he was too old.
she was his biggest cheerleader when it was audition time…. they audition for MONTHS for his slot and she vouched for him and the chemistry.. to be the last person to know or to find out when it’s announced? that would have been a problem for me too…… but I’m glad he’s growing and not set in stone. Happy for him
Kelly seems alot more bitter now then she did with Regis…..
Well, if anybody’s been paying attention to GMA, Michael started guest hosting last year and I said then, he’s auditioning for a spot on the panel. So it should have been obvious that he was going to make a move.
Kelly is skinny isn’t she? And for a woman in her 50s, she still talks and acts like she’s 25.
lol that was for you to catch up on the comments downstairs and read the phuckery from the Trump supporter that Zoe posted
I’m not intentionally rude to anyone hun except Chiby 
I only watched because of him. before that Regis and Kelly also Regis and Kathy Lee was a bore
Yea they’re smashing
ABC knew this ALL along. GMA is just down the street from Kelly & Michael. He still could have did both shows. Something is just not right about this.
That’s true
Kelly is that you?
They need another equally corny host
Exactly
LOLOL!!!!
Lmaooooo
Don’t be mad Kelly because the DIK IS LEAVING YOU. HES STEPPING UP GETTING THAT GMA PUNANI NOW. LOL
Not if the BOSS TOLD HIM NOT TO TELL ANYONE
Kelly probably felt somewhat humiliated, betrayed or dissed that she wasn’t privy to MS leaving way before it was finalized and announced. Michael probably was asked not to leak it or discuss the transition with Kelly! Regis hasn’t spoken to Kelly since their last show together, I would wager she stayed on the side of the network executives, like Michael is doing! Television is a cold business, ratings are everything! I get why Strahan was asked to come on-board full-time! TV is more challenging than ever because you can watch it anytime, and people aren’t invested in these TV personalities much, a lost era!
It’s hard to believe she’s married to a Latino and manages to stay so skinny!
Get well Wuts
She had to see this coming. He was pt or guest host etc a few times on GMA. His management team did their job well. It’s life. She’ll be okay. She was probably bamboozled and thought they were friends, I mean hell, he ate dinner with her family many nights.
When opportunities come, you have to act quickly. The Kelly Ripa show. There.
Someone getting his wrinkles steamed outta his face.
I want to bang him.
U think he put just enough tongue through gap to give Nicole Murphy’s man in the boat a nice lashing?
I like him. That’s not a bad idea, but the chemistry will matter.
I dont like ole cock eyes. I bet he buys mangina all up and down the slums of Park Ave.
See, this is the thing. People dont get mad when their coworkers leave unless they caught feelings. We dont know what went on behind the scenes but I could care less if my coworker leaves their job, it’s not affecting my hustle. He must have been laying down some pipe or tugged the box because nobody gets like this over a co-worker….really?
I said it in another post, there’s more to this because nobody gets upset about a coworker leaving their job, you’re usually happy or relieved. They must have had something going on behind the scenes and she gonna miss that pipe….keeping it 100
bwaaaa!
And you spelled it TUHDAE, not ‘today.’ That’s my girl. I luh her!
Awwww she’s salty ??
She is mad because he was her top choice to fill Trgis spot , Regis told them 15 minutes before the show went on air he was retiring, and Regis said he hasn’t talked to since retiring four years ago! She needs to eat three sandwiches , 2 glasses of milk and be quiet. Nobody wants her because she is the star of her own show and she would not play along well in the sandbox on a panel.
Petty Betty!!
This Bish is going to play the sympathy card for a bigger payday! Mike did her a favor. Business 101…
I never watched that show and never will!
Dead
The “Star” Is mad that she’s not coming to Good Morning America. This is business and she shouldn’t take it personally.
Right. Act like she needs a job and bring her butt to work before her show get renamed
JUST CHECKING WHAT PAGE YOU WERE ON TO SEE IF I HAD THE RIGHT ONE ????
Can’t stop. Won’t stop. LOL
hahah I’m so glad I saw your last sentence bc I’m like you need to get on her management team ASAP
I REAAAALY don’t think that’s what was going on…any more than I think Regis was choppin’ her down. She’s mad because her show is going down the tubes once Michael leaves.
Sometimes? Andy’s the bitchiest queen on primetime.
~Diddy Bops like Puff around you. Trips in my shiny Missy E garbage bag suit, but gets back in formation~
maybe she doesn’t think she could hold it on her own; lacks the confidence
this should be a lesson to mike strahan number one stop trusting white women, he married one had twins with her and then divorced her. now he went to work with one and was her personal stepping stool and clown. do better michael and stop being a clown for these white folk. kelly told you to kneel and bow and you did everything her and the producers told you to do..you finally got tired of being her second fiddle and finally man up and did the right thing. i haven’t watched the show but i have seen clips here and there on the blogs like the one with him and common breakdancing like two coons, when will the black man stop being a coon and be the King he is suppose to be?
exactly and the sad part is that when she was on all my children she had some weight on her a nice shape. now she is a thin bony frail thing that needs to EAT!!!! she looks very unhealthy! the show needs two new host.
Typical response from an angry bird…this man makes millions of dollars per year…what should he have done instead? Be a garbage man like your baby daddies? Bia dismiss yoself.
Michael left cuz YT thinks she controls him. It’s the same as being cool with your supervisor..it doesn’t mean u want them in your home. One poster said he spent a few nights a week eating with her family. He probably did so because he felt obligated cuz Kelly has a lot of pull on the show. She is quite frankly exhausting and was probably more enamored with him and the fact that he was a “cool black man” in her eyes. If your black, you’ve met these type of YT’s before.
Michael knew when he accepted the job it was a means to an end. So when he saw an opportunity to bounce he did so in a brilliant way. He played ABC for more $$, he didn’t have to tell her boo (ABC is taking the blame for how it was revealed; they said he couldn’t say anything), and now he is out from under her thumb…#Well played Mr. Strahan
never angry, just telling the truth and obviously THE TRUTH HURTS!!!! BYE BYE!
