To celebrate the 30th anniversary of her hit song 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,' the cast of Cyndi Lauper's Tony-nominated musical 'Kinky Boots' arranged a musical tribute, complete with a whole bunch of famous faces lip-syncing to the '80s classic.

Reigning American Idol champion, Phillip Phillips paid a visit to the set of Live! With Kelly and Michael yesterday morning. While talking with Kelly and Michael, Phillip admitted to not really watching much of the 2012 Olympic games from London, especially women's gymnastics instead he caught a little bit of volleyball.  Which is a little odd because NBC used his song Home to promote the Olympics

It was one of the worst kept secrets in television, this morning Kelly Ripa announced who her new co-host would be and as expected, it was Michael Strahan!  The show has been searching for a replacement for Regis Philbin since his departure from the show in November of last year and Michael is the new man on set.  The show has also been renamed with Kelly getting top billing!  The show changes fro

While Disney and ABC won’t formally announce Kelly Ripa’s permanent co-host until September 4th (when Ripa is expected to walk on stage with her new co-host in tow), but multiple reports this afternoon are naming former NFL star Michael Strahan as the one who will replace Regis Philbin on ‘Live!’

When Regis Philbin stepped down from 'Live! With Regis and Kelly', the people who are behind his show immediately began searching for someone to fill his seat. While Regis is obviously irreplaceable, someone has to take the job. His counterpart Kelly Ripa has done a phenomenal job handling the show with whichever co-host comes her way. Well it looks as though they have finally found a permanent ho

The internet has been abuzz that ‘Saturday Night Live‘ might be losing yet another cast member / writer, at least in a regular capacity, as rumors floated that ‘Weekend Update’ vet Seth Meyers might be ready to take the big job with Kelly Ripa after Regis Philbin’s retirement.  Meyers has been pretty mum up until now, filling in for Regis this past week, but now the ‘SNL’ star is giving his defini

Ever since Regis Philbin retired from his daytime talk show "Live! With Regis and Kelly", ABC has been getting different celebrities to co-host the show with Kelly Ripa. Well, at 9 am our celebrity guest for Womens Night Out will be co-hosting the show this morning. That's right, we're talking about Peter Facinelli.

The departure of longtime host Regis Philbin has meant his ‘Live!’ co-host Kelly Ripa will work with a whole cavalcade of guest hosts while a permanent replacement is found. Now four more celebs have signed on, including Jerry O’Connell and singer-actor Josh Groban.

Twenty-eight years of ‘Live with Regis and Kelly’ have gone by and Regis is gone. Now comes the fun part of finding his replacement. On last night’s ‘Saturday Night Live,’ various celebrities auditioned to sit in the chair next to Kelly Ripa, including, among others, Ricky Gervais, Ashton Kutcher, George Lopez, Rosie O’Donnell, and even NPR’s Garrison Keillor.

Regis Philbin may be exiting ‘Live!’ in a couple weeks, but Kelly Ripa is staying put. The 41-year-old actress and host, who celebrated a decade with the show in February, just signed a new five-year contract with Disney-ABC Domestic Television that will begin when her current deal expires late next year.

It’s sad to think that next week is Regis Philbin’s last week of hosting ‘Live with Regis & Kelly’ after 28 years. The show will continue, of course, as Kelly Ripa signed a new, five-year contract yesterday, but it won’t be the same without this household name. The last week, however, looks like a good one. Besides the teary goodbyes and the flashback montages, they’ve got a great guest list,

As he announced earlier this year, beloved television personality Regin Philbin is retiring from the syndicated ‘Live! with Regis and Kelly’ on November 18 after more than a quarter-century co-hosting the various incarnations of the program. Since then, names such as Ryan Seacrest, Andy Cohen and actor Mark Consuelos, the husband of Philbin’s current co-host, Kelly Ripa, have been bandied about as
