20 Things We Need To Stop Ignoring About Kelly Ripa

Sometimes famous people turn out to be a bit mean when their fans meet them in real life. According to stars.topix.com, one of those stars is actress and singer Jennifer Lopez. Sometimes the star is not very nice when she is doing an interview.

But she certainly is not the only one who can have a bit of an attitude at times. Actress Julia Roberts has been seen getting in the faces of some people, and she can be very confrontational at times.

In addition, some celebrities are not necessarily mean, but they definitely can behave like divas. A great example of that is singer Christina Aguilera, who had an entire store shut down so she could do some shopping without being bothered.

Television personality Kelly Ripa has also been known to do some strange things as well. Here are some odd things that fans shouldn’t ignore.

20 Kelly Doesn’t Mind Talking About Personal Things On Television

According to nickiswift.com, the star discussed her husband’s personal life on television when she talked about a job he used to have.

19 She Claimed That Mark Can Be Mean To Her Sometimes, And Then She Clarified Her Statement

15 Kelly Was A Bit Upset With Megyn Kelly

According to celebrityinsider.org, Ripa has not been very happy with her friend Megyn Kelly. At one time, Kelly appeared with Ripa on television for a bit, and lots of viewers watched them. Kelly used this to get her own show, and Ripa did not like that very much. Ripa was upset because she considered Kelly to be a good friend of hers.

Kelly Ripa is not shy about posting some interesting photos and videos of her husband on Instagram.

11 Kelly Is Not Always Friendly With Her Kids

According to redbookmag.com, Ripa has no problem being strict with her children. When Ripa appeared on The Wendy Williams Show, she claimed that she does not think her daughter likes her much. But she also doesn’t care what Lola thinks of her at all, which may not help their relationship.

10 She Joked About Her Daughter’s Body

Ripa says a lot of very personal things about Lola, and that happened again when she was recalling when Lola was about to leave to go to the prom.

9 She Really Doesn’t Care If Her Children Like Her

According to today.com, Ripa has never been concerned with what her children think of her. She does not believe that parents should ever try to be their child's’ friend.

8 Kelly Has Talked About Going Through The Stuff In Lola’s Bedroom

Lots of moms are pretty good at telling when their child has something that he or she should not have, and Ripa is no different.

6 Lola Can’t Always Pick Out Her Own Outfits

According to thetalko.com, there have been times when Lola did not even get to decide what she wore. Ripa picked out her clothes for her. It’s natural for a parent to want their child not to dress a certain way, but controlling their wardrobe entirely is a bit of an issue.

Ripa is definitely a strict parent, and she actually does everything she can to monitor her children’s social media accounts. According to closerweekly.com, she believes that nothing her children do on their social media accounts should be kept from her. The television star claimed that she would not read a diary if any of her children kept one, but she does not think twice before keeping an eye on what they are doing on the internet.

4 She Joked About Exploiting Her Children On The Internet

Most parents don’t joke about exploiting their children at all, but of course Ripa has no problem with it. That is because she once joked about wanting children so that she could use her social media accounts to exploit them, according to people.com. When the television star said this, she was discussing the fact that Lola does not like her mom to post pictures of her on the internet.

3 Kelly Contemplated Not Answering One Of Lola’s Phone Calls

Most parents seem to enjoy getting calls from their children. Some of them even answer those calls without thinking twice about it since it could be an emergency, but there was once a time when Ripa seriously considered not answering a call from her daughter, according to people.com. This was because Ripa had posted an image of her online, and she knew Lola was not going to like it, so she didn’t want to talk to her.

2 Kelly Has Been Very Critical Of Lola

According to moms.com, Ripa often criticizes Lola, and she does not treat her other children the same way. Ripa has claimed that her sons are always happy and in a good mood, but that things are a bit different with Lola. Ripa has had a harder time raising Lola than she has had with her boys.

1 She Has No Problem Going Through Someone Else’s Phone

Lots of people leave their cell phones laying around, including Ripa’s children. But according to moms.com, that is not a good decision unless they do not mind their mother going through it. She once did this to Lola when she saw her phone laying on her bed, but that’s not surprising when one considers how strict she is when it comes to cell phones.
