Kelly Ripais clapping back at a troll who compared her to a cardboard cutout.
It all started on Thursday whenJerry O’Connellshared a photoof Ripa, 48, to promote her upcoming appearance on the premiere episode of his new talk showJerry O.
That’s when the social media user decided to take aim at Ripa.
“Why? There are so many interesting people out there who don’t already have way too much time on tv, why her (or any other cardboard cutout tv like seacrest etc.),” the individual wrote, questioning O’Connell’s decision.

“Even you can’t transcend the boringness of that kind of guest,” the person wrote, also in reference to Ripa’sLive with Kelly and Ryanco-host Ryan Seacrest. “Cruel disappointment.”
Ripa was quick to defend herself, cooly writing back “Well Vanessa, it’s August, so non cardboard cutout tv people are in Italy, and truth be told, I’m pretty exciting.”
Ripa’s husbandMark Consuelosalso backed her up writing, “I conquer… very exciting.”
This isn’t the first time Ripa has had toset a fan straight.
Last month, the star shared asteamy snapof Consuelos, 48, from their vacation shirtless in beautiful blue water, showing off his impressive upper body muscles.

While the sexy snap garnered plenty of attention from other celebrities and fans, includingThe Real Housewives of Beverly HillsstarLisa Rinna, who wrote in a comment, “Thank you Kelly 🔥” — some used the moment as an opportunity to criticize theRiverdalestar.
“He spends a hell of a lot of his time working out should spend it with his wife and kids,” an Instagram user wrote, adding a crying face emoji.
Ripa promptly responded, “He’s on vacation WITH us. He’s a multitasker.”
The couple, who tied the knot in 1996, share three kids — Lola, 18, Michael, 22, and Joaquin, 16.
