Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos Hilariously Recaps ‘Live’ Look-alike Contest When “Three Men” Showed Up Claiming To Resemble Kelly Ripa: “What’s Happening Here?”

Doppelgänger discussion dominated the start of this morning’s Live with Kelly and Mark.

After Mark Consuelos brought up a Taylor Swift look-alike on this morning’s Live with Kelly and Mark, Kelly Ripa recalled that they “used to have a look-alike contest” on the show. While Live‘s EP Michael Gelman proposed that they “should do that again,” Ripa jokingly insisted, “No, no, no, calm down.”

Consuelos chimed in, “I wasn’t on the show, but I heard all about it.”

Gelman teased that “everyone looks like Kelly,” particularly “every blonde,” to which Ripa added, “Literally everyone!”

“There were three men, I believe,” she continued. “I was like, ‘What’s happening here?’”

Although Gelman said that “they’re look-alikes, too,” Ripa begged to differ.

“I’m sure they are, but they happened to not look like me at all,” Ripa noted.

She explained that the contest had two categories, one for her look-alike and one for the look-alike of her former late co-host, Regis Philbin.

“In both categories, there were two kinds of people: People that really looked like us, and people that looked not like us at all,” she continued, “but had gotten too much encouragement from their friends, family and Gelman.

Consuelos claimed that he and Ripa “get that a lot.”

“We’ll meet a couple, and they’re like, ‘We’re like the Mark and Kelly, but of us, and we’re like you. And I’m looking at the guy like, ‘Nah, dude.’” he teased. “I said, ‘Take off your shirt. Not you, the guy.’”

However, Consuelos conceded that he has seen one guy that did look like him.
