I've come to the conclusion that Kelly Ripa is one of the most annoying "celebrities" on the planet. And she's everywhere. First, she was just some chick on a soap, of which I was blissfully unaware. Then she replaced the frightening and equally annoying Kathie Lee Gifford on the horribly popular testament to Americans' stupidity, Live with Regis and fill-in-the-chippie. This development left me relatively unaffected at the beginning, since I do not watch morning shows due to their unpleasant perkiness and insistence that I be chipper and cheerful in the mornings. I sailed along, blissful in my ignorance of All Things Ripa.
Then the dam broke.
All of a sudden, she was everywhere. She's on advertisements for haircare products and bottled water, which are played on a ridiculously heavy rotation. She's being interviewed by everyone, and they all ask her the same questions - "How do you balance being a mom with working on a soap and working with the Reege?" (Not that I can actually stomach sitting through an entire interview with her, but they always ask this in the promo spots for the interviews.) She's been a guest star on a prime-time show. I swear, I can't watch my beloved Must See TV without seeing Little Miss Ripa at least once an hour. It's enough to make me insane.
