This one is directed at every douchebag who felt compelled to e-mail Live! with Kelly – worst title ever for a TV show – recently and complain about host Kelly Ripa’s tight dress.
The ultra perky blonde hurricane wore a body hugging “Stella McCartney miracle” dress that was so tight it caused viewers to write in before she and guest co-host Randy Jackson even started their first interview.
“We’re getting a lot of e-mails,” said Kelly in an unusual moment between host chat and a chat with Reese Witherspoon. “People keep saying it’s a nice dress but your nipples should not be showing,” she explained.
To be fair, if you watch the clip, you’ll notice Jackson check Ripa’s chest out before they even start chatting about Whitney Houston’s death the weekend before. Ripa, of course, refused to defend her fashion selection and instead chose the coward’s way out…
“It’s not nipples, it the darts of the dress.” Ripa pointed to her chest. “It’s the stiching of the dress.” As she laughed about it, she held up the pieces of paper in front of her chest. “Thank you for helping me all feel insecure.”
Insecure? Come on, Kelly! You live for the attention!
But back to my point: who really cares about any of this? Whitney Houston had just died and people were so concerned about Kelly Ripa’s breasts they felt compelled to rush to their devices and fire off an e-mail? Most people don’t even vote but they care about Ripa’s nipples?
This world is in bigger trouble than I thought…

Frankly, I’m not concerned with either…
Good for you! Seriously…
Unfortunately some people have nothing to do but worry about what Kelly (or is it Kelli?) is wearing and it matters deeply to them, Sad but true.
Well said, young lady…
This world is in bigger trouble than I thought…

You got that right, Hook. I swear, I wish people would pay as much attention as to who get elected for office, who in turn are running America into the ground. Wouldn’t it be something, if they did? Of course, honest elections would help too.
We definitely need to discover the secret to conquering voter apathy.
Yeah, right after we figure out a way to obtain an honest vote count. It’s not always who votes, I think it is who ‘counts’ the votes that matters these days. And demanding voter ID would no doubt take a lot of dead people’s name off of the list, which would be a start.
You are indeed wise beyond your years. my friend….
I bet we could get more people to vote if the campaign trail was littered with nipple-showing candidates…
I bet you’re right! As long as the candidates were hot, that is!
It demands a brain relatively huge and powerful as the one we Homo sapiens have in order to be THIS MUCH IRRATIONAL! Not an easy task….
No, but so many manage it!
Kelly Ripa is so flat chested that I am sure she was wearing a padded bra like most other women in America. I have clothes that give that appearance too. Nothing like the late 70′s and 80′s where everyone went braless…Remember the Farrah Fawcett poster????
Barely….
Just kidding, of course!
This is so ridiculous. People are too hypercritical of everything! It’s not like TV doesn’t show us worse than possible nipples in a dress!
And really what we should be concerned with is the lack of facial hair on Alex Trebek
I have to agree…
The world truly is coming to the end if this is what we are all so concerned about. I feel your pain, Hook.
Now what are we going to do about it?
Take a permanent vacation to the Caribbean!
If only….
We should pack up our families and leave together! I’ll get the escape car and meet you at the Canadian border!!! hahaha
I’m not ready to pull up the stakes just yet, my friend!
Darn. I thought I was free of the service industry.
They always pull you back in…
Oh Hook…you sadden me…of course it is important…it’s NIPPLES man…N.I.P.P.L.E.S…they have been around much longer than Whitney…or global warming, the economy going down the toilet, children dying of poverty…don’t you get it…its NIPPLES…and the world turns in them. (I meant to say ‘turns on them’…but the mistake ‘in’ makes more sense…don’t ya think)
But you can see them – and better ones at that – ANYWHERE, Jo! And people really don’t need to comment on Kelly Ripa’s nips, do they?
Oh but they do as they don’t have anything else in their lives…nothing good at least
And certainly no nipples
Well said, Jo!
How empty does your life have to be to fire off that email? I have way to much to do even when I’m sitting there watching TV LOL
Well said!
doesn’t look like she has any boobs anyway, but who cares!! There are much more inportant things to worry about than that.
My point exactly!
oh… and Reese is HOT. love her.
lol
I can’t stand her! But I trust your judgment.
>The ultra perky blonde hurricane
- There’s eager. There’s enthusiastic. Then, there’s Kelly Lee. (As “Reg” used to call her back in the day.)
>It’s not nipples, it the darts of the dress.”
- She’s right about darts, you know? Darts are (also) like arrows. They say ‘THISaway!’
>To be fair, if you watch the clip, you’ll notice Jackson check Ripa’s chest out before they even start chatting
- See? Randy the Dawg* followed her instructions right away!
Not like *that*. Okay, *also* like that, but it’s what he calls the dudes among the participants.
Kate
Always a pleasure to hear from you, Kate.
Man I was hoping you’d have posted the nipple shot
Couldn’t find it!
Well really, WHO CARES!
That’s exactly how I feel!
What, people couldn’t just change the channel, or even *gasp* turn the TV off and go read a book or something? They had to keep watching AND send an email about it? Oy.
People suck, don’t they?
You know…. Padded bras must have been the invention that brought men to their knees. Sort of like a cup (tee hee hee bad pun) for women.
Seriously though… just goes to show you how many people out there that look at a woman’s breasts/nipples and then furiously claim they don’t look. And I bet dollars to donuts most of those people who complained are women!!!
I bet you’re right…
I am Woman. I’m usually right but just not when I am wrong!!!!
Why does that make perfect sense to me?
Because you are such a wise man!!!
Your logic is irrefutable, Woman!
