Kelly Ripa: Michael Strahan Farewell Can’t Come Soon Enough!

Ok bai. That is how we’re envisioning Kelly Ripa’s parting words to Live! co-host Michael Strahan on May 13th, when he leaves the show after four years for a new gig at Good Morning America. Sources from the set tell TMZ that Ripa ” barely says a word ” to Strahan when the cameras stop rolling. Their usual drill of Strahan knocking on Ripa’s dressing room door to walk out on stage together no long exists.   Instead, Ripa just walks out of her room ” without even acknowledging him .” Gone are the days when Ripa would leave the door open while she was in makeup so Strahan could pop in and say hello. This is the complete opposite of what Ripa preached when she returned to Live! , when she insisted that the lines of communication in the workplace need to be open in order for everyone to be happy and productive. TMZ reports that the staffers believe Strahan did nothing wrong to deserve Ripa’s silent treatment. Kelly Ripa Makes Live! Return “All he did was agree to be a good soldier and go to another show on the same network … per bosses orders,” according to TMZ. New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony and Matt Bomer are booked as tomorrow’s guests, according to the site. Following Strahan’s departure, Ripa will be joined by guest co-hosts Jimmy Kimmel, Fred Savage, Seal and Andy Cohen. It’s rumored that Ripa’s friend, Anderson Cooper will permanently replace Strahan, but there’s been no official confirmation yet. On Wednesday, Ripa joked on-air that she might move the show to Los Angeles after Strahan’s departure. The New Jersey native is this week’s People cover girl, and she explained that her daughter is looking at schools , and will likely go west. “Lola, I am certain, will go to college in California,” Ripa told the magazine. “She’s been wanting to live in California since she saw that Hannah Montana movie a thousand years ago.” So yesterday, Strahan brought it up. “Eventually I would have to go, right?” she asked. “And then I could be a Hollywood wife.” View Slideshow: 16 Celebs Who Could Replace Michael Strahan On Live!

Shield Your Eyes: Caitlyn Jenner To Pose Naked With Olympic Gold Medal For Sports Illustrated

Caitlyn Jenner To Pose Nude With Olympic Medal Caitlyn is officially a true Kardashian . The transgender reality star is finally earning her K-wings by following in the family tradition of stripping it off and laying it out for the world to see in a national publication. Via USweekly : Now that’s a patriotic streak! Caitlyn Jenner will appear on a summer cover of Sports Illustrated wearing “nothing but an American flag and her Olympic medal,” a source reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly. The 66-year-old I Am Cait star (formerly known as Bruce) set a world decathlon record at the 1976 Montreal Summer Games. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of her win, she’ll pose with her gold medal for the first time post-transition, adds the source: “She’s excited about that.” (Her ex-wife Kris appeared topless with a medal during a 2007 photo shoot on Keeping Up With the Kardashians .) Damn…Caitlyn swears she’s Kris now, huh? Until now, Jenner says, she had stashed her “most prized possession” at the bottom of her makeup drawer. “I never wanted my kids to feel like they had to have a gold medal in order to be considered a success,” the father of Kylie, 18, Kendall, 20, Brody, 32, Brandon, 34, Casey, 35, and Burt, 37, wrote in an August 2015 blog post. “I didn’t want them to constantly compare their own achievements to my time in the Olympics, so I haven’t displayed my medal.” “I’m very proud of this,” the reality star said of her medal in a video accompanying the blog entry. “That was a great time in my life. But to be honest with you, it’s even a greater time in my life right now with what I’m trying to accomplish.” Well…um, good for her? Whatever. We guess if you don’t like it, don’t look. But we’re just hoping this shoot goes more demure route and not THIS direction… E! / Splash / WENN

California Senator Pushing For “Pay Protection By Race” Law Ensuring Equal Pay For Minorities

A California State Senator wants to boost pay protection in the state by adding race to the current equal pay legislation. California already protects pay by gender, but Sen. Isadore Hall thinks a pay proposal regarding race is also necessary and is working to pass such a law. Hall’s proposal would be an addition to California’s current fair pay law that requires employers justify any pay discrepancies between men and women who do “substantially similar” work. Hall would like to add “race or ethnicity” to the requirement as well. “No one should be paid less than what they’re worth and no one should be discriminated against because of the hue of their skin or their gender,” said Hall, a Democrat, in a statement. “This is the most robust racial equality bill in the nation…” [ MadameNoire ] Would You Leave Your Job Or Get Married To Stay In A Relationship With A Co-Worker? Finding love out here is hard. The only thing harder? Finding a good job. So what would you do if you ended up in a romantic relationship with a really great person who just happened to work with you, only to have your job tell you that said relationship goes against their policy, which prohibits dating between co-workers? And to make matters worse, what if they said that in order for you to have your relationship and not have to hide it, one of you would have to leave the company? So yes, it’s a complicated situation indeed when two parties just so happen to fall in love in the workplace. Or even just “like.” The desire for employers to avoid in-office conflict is real… [ MadameNoire ] Spike Lee Threw A Brooklyn Block Party In Remembrance Of Prince After news of the passing of Prince hit the airwaves yesterday (April 21) the outpouring of condolences and praise for the man who transcended his musical generation immediately and appropriately followed. While some places held Prince tributes, Spike Lee took his eulogy a step further and spread his love the Brooklyn way by throwing a mini block party in the Fort Greene neighborhood for the man who personified the word “cool.” The Do The Right Thing director took to his Instagram page to announce the gathering proclaiming “We will dance, sing, and should to his music. Wear something purple.” And wear purple they did. Thousands of Prince fans and admirers gathered outside of Lee’s 40 Acres And A Mule Filmworks offices where they danced and recited classics such as “If I Was Your Girlfriend,” “Little Red Corvette,” and of course, “Purple Rain…” [ HipHopWired ] Mariah Carey Dedicates “One Sweet Day” To Prince During Paris Concert [ Vibe ] Prince: Percocet Triggered OD Days Before Death [ TMZ ] Michelle Obama Wears Purple, Melts Our Grieving Hearts [ HuffingtonPost ] Fetty Wap Has An Inspiring Message (And New Song) For The Class Of 2016 [ IHeartRadio ]

Justice: Black Women’s Book Club Wins $11 Million Racial Discrimination Lawsuit Against Napa Valley Wine Train

Black Women’s Book Club Wins $11 Million Lawsuit Against Napa Valley Wine Train A Black women’s book club group were harshly removed from a California vineyard tour after white patrons accused them of being too loud on their train ride. According to Reuters reports: Eleven women have reached a settlement with a California wine train company they sued for $11 million for racial discrimination after they were kicked off the train for being too loud, their lawyer said on Monday. Members of the Sistahs on the Reading Edge Book Club came to an “amicable settlement” with the Napa Valley Wine Train company on Thursday, six months after filing a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Northern California, their attorney Waukeen McCoy said. “We hope that other businesses learn from this case and implement diversity and sensitivity training for employees,” McCoy said in an email to Reuters. McCoy did not disclose the terms of the settlement. The 11 women, 10 of whom are African-American, were ordered off the vintage train on Aug. 22 after other passengers complained the group was too loud. The expulsion sparked widespread anger on social media. The controversy unfolded as the United States grapples with persistent issues of racism and discrimination following high-profile police killings of unarmed black men over the last two years, which triggered waves of protest and a renewed civil rights movement under the banner of “Black Lives Matter.” Justice!!!!

Swirl Gone Sour: Aisha Tyler’s Vanilla King Files For Divorce After 23 Years Of Matrimony-dom

Aisha Tyler’s Estranged Husband Jeff Tietjens Files For Divorce It’s a wrap for Aisha Tyler’s swirly matrimony-dom! Via TMZ reports : Aisha Tyler’s husband Jeff Tietjens is pulling the plug on their 20 year marriage. Jeff finally filed divorce docs earlier this month in L.A. Superior Court. They’d been separated since January 2015. They got hitched in 1994 after being college sweethearts. Aisha has been vocal on “The Talk” about her and Jeff’s inability to conceive, but it’s unclear if that played a role in the breakup. He cited irreconcilable differences. Aisha’s rep, Lisa Morbete, tells TMZ although their marriage is ending, their friendship will continue. Jeff isn’t asking for spousal support now, but indicated in the docs he’s reserving the right to do so later. Hate to say it, but we figured Aisha’s marriage was done when we saw her thottin’ it up on “Kocktails With Khloe”. Poor thang. WENN

Lily Aldridge and Behati Prinsloo Make A Great Pair

As I always say, the only thing better than one hot supermodel is two of them. Or three, or four, or… sorry, where was I? Anyway, so here’s Lily Aldridge and Behati Prinsloo out together in LA, and normally, that’d be cause for 30-45 seconds of celebration, but it must’ve been cold in California, because for some reason, both the Victoria’s Secret hotties are fully-clothed. Which makes it a whole lot tougher to get a good lesbian fantasy out of these than if they were both in their work clothes , but luckily, I’ve always had a very overactive imagination. » view all 11 photos Photos: WENN.com ,  PacificCoastNews Continue reading
