Kelly Ripa
Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa join the previously announced list of guest stars for the new season of “Ugly Betty” that includes Lindsay Lohan and Kelly’s hubby Mark Consuelos.
The stars of “Live with Regis and Kelly” will play themselves in the premiere episode, airing September 25, when Wilhelmina Slater (Vanessa Williams) and Alexis Meade (Rebecca Romijn) appear on the chat fest to promote the upcoming issue of Mode magazine. It is the first issue of Mode since Alexis fired her brother Daniel (Eric Mabius) and Regee and Kelly put her in the hot seat!
Kelly Ripa went to Berlin Community School in Berlin, NJ, then attended school at Eastern Regional High School in Voorhees Township, New Jersey.[2] She performed in high school plays and was discovered while performing in a play during her senior year of high school, The Ugly Duckling.[2] Ripa acted in local theater and was a featured regular on USA Network’s Dance Party USA – an afternoon teen music program.
In September 2003, she was back on double duty when she co-starred (with Faith Ford) on Hope & Faith, a situation comedy. She portrayed Faith Fairfield, a former soap star whose character is killed off and who moves in with (and subsequently wreaks havoc on) her sister Hope’s family. Hope & Faith survived for three seasons before a ratings decline led to its cancellation.
In June 2004, Ripa agreed to continue as Live co-host for at least five more years, at a salary that the tabloid television show Extra reported was $8 million/year.[1] In October 2006, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Ripa and her husband Mark Consuelos, also an actor, were partnering with producers from Hope & Faith on a sitcom for The CW Television Network that would be loosely based on the couple’s experiences as soap opera actors.
