Why do I suddenly like Kelly Ripa?
So, I’m watching the WE channel show “Hope and Faith“, mostly because I love Faith Ford, who played Corky Sherwood on “Murphy Brown”. I love “Murphy Brown” because I love Candice Bergen, and I’ll watch her do ANYTHING! When she did “Will & Grace” (who the character Karen Walker called ‘Candy’) and “Sex and the City”, they were my favoritest episodes. So, anyhoo, now that I’m done play Six Degrees, just dated myself, and have also shown that I watch way too much TV, back to my original thought.
So, on “Hope and Faith”, Kelly Ripa plays, wait for it, a washed up soap star. For an out-of-work-living-with-her-sister former star, she has banging clothes and wears nothing but stilettos. It helps that she’s petite and in kick-ass shape. Ah, and when that tasty morsel of a husband of hers also stars… I occasionally tune into Regis & Kelly, plus she’s hawking Tide and Electrolux. Which I guess she gets alot of flack for, since no one believes she even knows how to run an appliance.
I think it’s because I’m having strong, self-made woman withdrawals, because Kimora Lee Simmons‘s season 2 of
Life in the Fab Lane is over. I love her, she is so deliciously over the top, and just plain crazy, which is how I can be at times. Even though she piggie-backed on her rap royalty ex-husband Russell Simmons‘s Phat Farm clothing line, she doesn’t strike me as the type to just let others do the heavy lifting. That’s how I want to be, parlaying my talent into a multi-billion dollar industry. Um, I don’t have a muti-billion dollar company to get me started, but I’m working on it.
Plus, her daughters now have their own clothing line. Now that’s the way to share the wealth, although the $40,000 a month support that he pays for both girls also helps.
And on that note, the fashion show they had to showcase the new line has inspired me to post a Candyland themed party, coming soon!
