I think Anderson Cooper is hot. And this even proves it more. He was filling in for Regis the other day over at Live with Regis & Kelly when Jillian Harris was on the show. Jillian has been quite popular where I live since she lives close by…I was happy that she picked Ed. (But don’t you dare ask how many shows I actually watched.)

I have never really been into the show since I find it degrading to women and men. If I am dating someone I don’t want them to kiss 10 or so other people. So Anderson decided to ask the question that everyone wants to know, well at least I do because I have always wondered.

Anderson: “How many of the guys did you sleep with?”

Jillian: <Shock> “I kissed 10 guys but only 4 of them with tongue.”

Anderson: “You know what?  I just threw up in my mouth a bit.”

Anderson is my hero!

Back in July, Star magazine, did a Stars Without Makeup issue. I like seeing what celebrities look like when their faces are naked. I think they did a way better job on the last one than this one. Here are some of the stars featured…and they don’t even look that bad! (Click on the images for a description.)

Kelly Ripa sometimes makes me mad. She looks like she has the perfect life. Three kids, a great husband, skinny and a job I would die for. And now I see her kids out shopping with her and wonder…what am I doing wrong? My kids are never that good.  I need to interview this girl and see how she balances it all. She seems like she would be fun to hang out with. And so down to earth.

Kelly Ripa is the November 2008 cover girl for Shape magazine. Is it just me or does it seem like she is on every cover of this magazine? I don’t blame them though. She has three kids and is skinny and hot! Kelly gave this quote in the interview in the magazine about perseverance…

“You don’t take one bad experience and go, ‘Oh, I’m getting out of the business,’ ” says Kelly. “I’ve learned that you persevere no matter what,” Kelly Ripa

Kelly is such a good role model. I think she rocks!

Kelly Ripa is First magazine’s cover girl. Inside the issue she talks about happiness, parenthood and how she manages it all. Here are some highlights.

On the importance of spending time alone: “I try to run everyday in the park. It’s crucial to know who you are and how you feel. I find that I’m a better wife and mom if I take a half hour for myself every day. It can feel selfish, but it makes a big difference. If you don’t do it, you’ll feel overwhelmed and resentful. You want people to feel they can count on you. I feel they can when I take care of myself.”

On her traditional family life: “Marriage and having kids really agrees with us. Mark helps with homework, while I’ll do a baking project for school. We look at each other and think, if our friends could see us now, they wouldn’t believe what we’ve become! We really enjoy what our life has developed into. I try to do it all, and I don’t do any of it particularly well. But at least I try. Sometimes the cookies get burnt, but what are you going to do?”

Regarding her passion and support of the OCRF: “I lost a friend to ovarian cancer, so that’s very close to me. When I do Super Saturday (an annual event Kelly cohosts to help raise money for the OCRF) and see an ovarian cancer survivor and she says, ‘Thank you for doing this. Maybe my daughter won’t have to know what ovarian cancer is’— that’s why I do it. If my job can improve someone’s quality of life, that gives me great satisfaction.”

The biggest lesson she’s learned from Regis: “Regis taught me that you’re nothing without your audience and so you should always be yourself. It’s so funny: When I first got the job, it was so foreign to me to be myself because I’d played a character on a soap for so many years that ‘playing’ myself felt unnatural. I still have a hard time looking into the camera. But I do it because I do love my audience!”

Remembering her well-rounded upbringing: “My mother was way ahead of herself in terms of creative expression. Mom thought it was important for us to have music and dance lessons. There were times when I told her that I wasn’t going to have time to do all my homework, and she would say, ‘Well, I think it’s more important that you’re well-rounded.’ She definitely struck the right balance.”

Catch the rest of the interview in the magazine available now.

Kelly Ripa is the cover girl for the July 13, 2008 issue of Page Six magazine. She is such a great inspiration to mom’s everywhere that you can have kids and have a career at the same time. And still look damn hot too!! That’s something I personally strive for everyday.
