You are right @finnzup, I can’t imagine any workplace tolerating getting pictures like that on a work device , and no matter how bizarre the Housewives are or how much Andy thinks his talk show is a big party , they are workplaces . Why do they get away with this behavior and or laughing about it when they sore for Disney and NBC ? Other people have been let go for just having accusations of inappropriate behavior . Hey both must feel untouchable. It sounds like Andy thought Kelly talking about him sending pictures was just fine. And Andy did apologize for sending similar pictures to one of the women accusing him of inappropriate behavior .

Here is the article! Why would Kelly talk about that on a podcast ? And on a work iPad ? What else is she into . Did Andy Cohen’s racy photo high jinks, drug-fueled self-pleasure confession slip Kelly Ripa’s mind? Bravo and its reality ringmaster Andy Cohen have recently been ensnared in various battles, legal and otherwise, with “Real Housewives” stars over allegedly bad behavior — all of which the host has adamantly denied. Most recently, former “Real Housewives of New York” star Leah McSweeney filed suit claiming that Cohen did coke with some Bravo stars, that the culture at the networks is so crude that one senior producer (not Cohen) “routinely sends unsolicited pictures of [their] genitalia to lower-level … production employees” and other grim allegations. Last week one of his besties, Kelly Ripa, rushed to his defense on her podcast “Let’s Talk Off Camera,” declaring herself “so angry” and “so offended” by the allegations. Really, Kelly? There was not a single thing, for example, in an episode of your very own podcast from less than a year ago that might have tipped you off at least to the possibilitythat Cohen has it in him to be anything less than a choir boy Back in May, the daytime legend had Cohen on as a guest and told a story about how she had once found herself in an awkward workplace situation because she received an unexpected d–k pic… that he had sent her So, my work iPad is open and I’m sitting here reading through my notes and [‘Live with Kelly and Mark’ executive producer Michael Gelman] is over my shoulder trying to show me something,” Ripa said. “And suddenly a completely erect penis pops up… It’s, like, a text from Andy Cohen [showing off a potential romantic partner’s privates],” she added. Not to leave all the dish to Ripa, Cohen cheerfully chimed in himself, joking that when he gets frustrated by the lack of freedom that comes with parenthood, he reminds himself what he’d be doing if he was magically child-free again: hanging around his apartment, he said, “masturbating and getting high.” If not the random boner SPAM and drug-fueled masturbation marathons, it’s hard to imagine what would make Kelly Ripa think someone’s a potential candidate for some slightly unsavory antics behind closed doors! Apparently this lady’s seen some things. Either way, Ripa’s publicist told us: “Kelly never referenced Leah McSweeney [on the recent podcast] and doesn’t even know who she is, but Kelly stands 100% by her defense of Andy and his character.” Cohen’s lawyers have called the cocaine claims a “shakedown,” demanded an apology and added, “Mr. Cohen never used cocaine with any cast member on any ‘Real Housewives’ show or with any other Bravo employee.” A rep for Cohen didn’t comment for this story

Yes ! Kelly and Andy remind me of the mean girls and boys in high school who mock everyone ! Yes , we common people are “gross” because we are so mean but when her buddy snarks it’s ok ! Not to mention their buddy Anderson who acts like the nerd who wants to be with the popular kids so he laughs at all of their mean behavior ! It’s very telling that Kelly has such a huge enemy list . i think Mark is saving the show at this point . He reminds me of Regis , he is a natural host i met Mark at a charity event when he was on All My Children . It was a lunch and then a photo autograph signing event . He was super nice . I was very impressed that he didnt get into the many women who were outwardly flirting with him , and some were raunchy. Mark was so nice and purposely ignored the very attractive, flirty women and ate lunch our table of very average women! He was super nice and talked to use a lot ! He actually seemed annoyed with flirty women . That impressed us a lot since we had gone to other soap events and many of the other stars ignored anyone who wasn’t a pretty flirtatious woman .

Kelly has now added scratching her head to her ticks ! Now she shakes her legs , plays with her clothing non stop and scratches her arms . Why can she not sit or stand still ? She acts and looks Cohen sharing his “candy” with her with her nervous ticks, boney body and endless hyper energy , in spite of not eating enough for a toddler !

Kelly’s dresses , hair makeup were well done for the Oscars , but wow she is now so gaunt and boney from her “healthy diet” that it has ruined her face which always looked nice in the past . Does anyone around her not worry when they see what is basically a cleanse being presented as her “healthy diet”, and seeing how she looked in her black outfit the past show in the studio before the Oscar’s ? Her “nutritionist “ is a chiropractor and her trainer looks like she is fanatical and lacking in balance and moderation.

Not to mention her inability to stand still and finally having to cross her legs in front of her when Mark was announcing the Oscar contest ! Do micro greens and almonds cause someone to pick at their clothing , shake their leg while sitting and also make them unable to stand still ? It reminds me of when I was a kid and older women would be in amphetamines which were called “diet pills “ so they could exist on hardly any food and have energy . Is her bestie Andy sharing his goodies with her ? She seriously is a jittery mess and it’s weird that she can work out for hours every day without hardly any calories or protein in her diet that her “nutritionist “ shared with entertainment sites !

Kelly and Andy remind me of high school kids who think they are cool and snark about others all the time , and then pretend they are friends with the people they talk about . And Anderson reminds me of the nerd who hangs out with them because he wants to be popular and laughs at their stupid jokes .

What I don’t get is how Mark , Kelly and now their son is so close to Andy Cohen . He’s probably going to lose his job since he’s doing coke with employees. He also has an obvious drinking problems. It makes me wonder about them !

Another thing that I don’t get is why Kelly thinks her fake smoking is a sign of being upper class or rich ! Is it 1960 again ? It’s so cringeworthy when she does that !

Yes, and for a man in his 50’s who has a child , he is still getting drunk on national tv and insulting people ? I know people find it entertaining or funny , but for me it’s a huge turn off . I don’t know how Kelly doesn’t see a man who produces shows where women are called “housewives” and encouraged to fight as misogynistic. It’s obvious these women do anything to be famous , but the fact that people make careers producing it and women like Kelly think it’s wonderful is disturbing.

I wonder how long Mark will laugh at Kelly bringing up person things and his quirks down laughs. I think Kelly likes having Mark on the show but she’s also a bit jealous of his popularity. He is better than her as host and she has been doing this for over 20 years! it looks like Kelly and Mark going on WWHL , probably to support their buddy Andy . I will never get how Kelly comes off as such a feminist that she can’t handle the bachelor or bachelorette , and gives lectures on how degrading it is , but she watches Real Housewives and had her daughter watching them as a child with her ! Talk about degrading and misogynistic! And her son works on that sleazy franchise ? With all of the legal drama now , it should he interesting . Hard to believe Kelly defends Andy when he can’t control his drinking on national TV and is behind such a degrading franchise !

Kelly’s nutritionist stated what she eats in a day for E News . I work in an office with nutritionists , I showed them the article and they were surprised that any nutritionist would find a diet so unbalanced , lacking in variety and so low in protein healthy it’s like she’s on a perpetual fad weight loss diet https://www.eonline.com/news/1395363/kelly-ripas-nutritionist-breaks-down-what-she-eats-in-a-typical-day?cmpid=social&source=instagram-enews&medium=link-post&content=organic

Looks like there are no no episodes of GMF for the next couple of weeks . Was the show cancelled? Molly went from being the next big thing on FN, complete with a home renovation , to being nowhere . I wonder if her awful hosting of the baking championship was prepay a factor in her losing ratings for GMF.

How could Kelly and Mark not know what cacao is ? So weird! And throwing in her mouth was just gross and weird ! A friend of mine told me her daughter’s classmate in college in NYC worked at Live as an intern on the show when it was Kelly and Michael . She said Kelly was demanding and not very nice if she didn’t get her way . She said Michael was very nice . I tend to believe this / Kelly reminds me of a friend I had to exercise every time she put something in her mouth she thought was fattening and lived on minimal calories . They hiked everyday on vacation and she still had to run ? Talk about obsessed , and her exercise teacher always seems extreme and extremely underweight like Kelly when she’s on the show . .

I didn’t see today’s show yet . It is replayed later today so I can see if something happened in that interview. I meant to come on before the holidays to comment on the show where Lola and Michael came on to cook . I think Michael is a lot like Mark and well, Lola acts a lot like Kelly . I will leave it at that ! i am surprised that Michael works on a Housewives franchise as a producer. He almost seemed embarrassed about it . He seems like a kid who is smart and has integrity and that show is misogynistic and tacky . I am wondering if he felt pressured into taking that job . I wouldn’t want that in my resume . i also never get the repulsion Kelly has to the Bachelor which is no way as degrading as the Housewives franchise where women are encouraged to get drunk and fight for entertainment, and they are called “housewives “! But she loves the show and even would sit down with Lola to watch it !

Give me a break, Duff has no clue how to manage his time to bake cookies ? And Damaris wins even though it was obvious the other person was better ? They wanted Damaris and Bobby to compete . I am glad Bobby has won . i didn’t mind Damaris in the past but now she annoys me with her overdone stupid behavior. Her voice is also an irritating .

I think they eliminated the right person . Now if they could eliminate Damaris it would be great ! She is just negative and nit picks . And her nasally , twangy voice is like nails on a chalkboard! I always thought she was bizarre when she was on Beat Bobby Flay with her stupid antics , but I had seen her on other shows and found her likable . Besides needing to be superior critical she is the one judge who really isn’t a baker but acts like she’s an expert ! Hopefully she’ll join Molly and not come back .

I guess I didn’t see that . What was this about ?

Rich celebrities find enabling therapists who don’t want to piss them off ! They pay a lot of money for therapy , so I’m sure some therapists don’t want to use the money , so they kiss the celebrity’s butt instead of confronting them when they are doing something unhealthy . Also , Valerie seems to cut anyone off who dares challenge her ! She argues with posters and plates victim . I’m sure she’d fire any therapist who didn’t kiss her butt !

More unnecessary Eddie talk today ! she was cooking to fill up Wolfie’a fridge and wearing the T shirt for his band . She truly seems like a narcissistic, entitled woman . You would think Eddie was her husband when he died. So ridiculous. i have a feeling the problems with her ex were not all his fault . I like her recipes , but does Wolfie need fatty cookies and other recipes that are so heavy ? She acts like his 5 years old Is she stuck back in time and reliving the 80’s ? I can’t imagine being her son’s fiancée ! Oh and she doesn’t have to put baking instructions on the ziti she’s leaving for Wolfie because she’s going to go over and bake it for him ! He can’t put a pan in the oven ?

Let’s be real , Kelly sucked when a Regis left and she had guest cohosts . The show was a mess until Michael came on . Kelly’s “talent “ was telling raunchy sex jokes like a 12 year old who just discovered sex ! . Ryan quietly handled the show and moved the show alone because he is a very skillful host . Kelly is just so narcissistic she would interrupt him and go off on tangents and he would put up with her BS and then handle interviews and move the show along . Kelly’s ego is now huge but her skill as a talk show host is not any better than it was when Regis left . I feel bad for Mark, but I am glad it’s not some other inexperienced cohost she could blame when things are a mess ! Maybe this is karma for trashing Regis when he could no longer respond , and playing victim in her book and podcast and acting like a spoiled brat playing hooky when Michael left, and treating him like shit on the air so he left even earlier than planned . She even trashed Disney for the paparazzi carrying a book about being a victim and airing dirty laundry to the audience since she isn’t professional enough to handle issues off camera . Kelly suddenly says everything is sexist and acts like she was a victim when in reality she was very lucky to be working for ABC when they wanted to cross promote their shows and soaps and put her on Live when she was not up to hosting with Regis . I honestly don’t think she can even handle the acting in a hallmark movie ! She wasn’t very good on the soap ! She only was good with Mark because they were a real couple .

I also listened to the podcast with Mark . Kelly seems to think it’s exciting to swear all the time in her book and on her podcast . I’m not offended, she just comes off unprofessional and tacky . I felt sorry for Mark on the podcast . Kelly had their therapist on and basically it was just time to show Mark’s issues in the marriage . She accused Mark of keeping up a discussion even when she said the said the “Safe word “, meaning a time out . She got on Mark’s case and he finally was allowed to speak and said it was because Kelly dumps on him with a lot of issues and then cuts him off with a safe word ! Lol Why is that not surprising? Kelly always can give a dissertation on Live and then cut off her cohost! Watching the new show is cringeworthy and boring . I really thought Mark would be a good idea until I heard Kelly spilling couple’s issues on the podcast. I am sure there is an appetite for embarrassing your spouse with personal information and talking about reality tv shows, but it seems like quite a few viewers found Kelly overbearing and rude to Mark . She may think it’s funny , but it’s not . Kelly seems to be following the trend of trashing people who she knows can’t fight back in her book and in interviews. You would think she was deployed to Afghanistan or working in a sweat shop like Norma Rae after hearing or reading about how horrible it was to make millions to sit and talk for an hour a day , and now only 3 shows a week! When I read an interview about her sleeping under a desk in her acting coach’s office when she first moved to NYC I had to laugh ! She is from New Jersey and could have taken the train the same day for an audition! She she did it for two weeks ! Lol. Kelly found a job as a teenager and is still with the same company in her 50’s ! But she had to act like she was so unfortunate! People who graduate from Juilliard wait tables and many times never make it in the entertainment business ! Kelly has changed into an entitled whiney person, when she used to be likable .

More and more posts insulting her ex and playing victim , all while she posts another picture of her, Eddie and Wolfie as if they were together as a family in response to her son saying happy birthday to his father ! She also posts old pictures of her and Eddie . It also looked like a recent picture, not from years ago. I am sorry but there is more to this story than Valerie being a victim ! The fact that Eddie’s ex and her ex are friends makes me wonder if Valerie was cheating with Eddie in the recent past when still married and was always around him when he was married and helped break up his second marriage. Maybe she’s afraid to shut up because she thinks the truth will come out and she needs to keep playing victim and attacking her ex in case things are revealed about her ! I don’t see how any of what she is doing including her stupid latest video about writing a letter to her ex burning it is helping her heal at all. Her behavior about Eddie speaks for itself and now she seems to need to make sure strangers keep thinking she has no blame in anything !

We don’t know Valerie for real, but I do believe she is not mentally healthy and just her weird behavior toward her son seems controlling and smothering . I feel sorry for his future wife . The Eddie stuff is obnoxious and also shows how she is entitled, selfish and doesn’t care how her behavior hurts someone if she wants something. The Mathew Perry story was an example . I wonder what might have went on with Eddie in recent years to cause her ex and Eddie’s ex to become friends . I think there is more than distant memories making her so emotional about him . The sad part is Valerie is a good actress and a good host on FN. It’s too bad she has no ability to keep her private life private and not act like a high school girl in social media. This is the post that Tom obviously posted about his situation with Valerie :

Exactly! The fact that she felt it was oh to go in social media and give interviews on shows like the Today show talking about Eddie like she was married to him , and dedicate entire episodes of her cooking show to him, was enough.
