"LIVE! WITH REGIS & KELLY" TO BE RE-BRANDED "LIVE! WITH KELLY"


Kelly Ripa & Nick Lachey as Kim Kardashian & Kris Humphries
How perfect was her timing?  Kelly Ripa had it down-pat when she decided to dress-up as Kim Kardashian on yesterdays taping of Live! with Regis & Kelly.  Guest Co-host Nick Lachey standing on stilts, was dressed as Kris Humphries, all falling on the day that the World was made aware of the just-married Couple's impending Divorce.

And is it also pure coincidence that Jessica Simpson, former-Wife of Lachey, confirmed her Pregnancy (Father: Eric Johnson) to the World via Twitter yesterday too?

With TV Icon Regis Philbin set to make his Departure from the long-running Show (began in 1983) on Friday, November 18, 2011 in what will be an emotional moment, it also was just announced that it will be re-branded as Live! with Kelly.  A  permanent a new Co-host is still being sought to fill Philbin's shoes. 

The first Celebrity Guest Co-host confirmed for November 21-23, 2011 is Jerry Seinfeld, a good Friend of Ripa's.
