Man, Kelly Ripa is giving NO EFFS these days!
The daytime host clearly has no problem biting the hand that feeds and openly mocking one of ABC‘s biggest cash cows.
Oh yeah. She came for Bachelor Nation.
On Tuesday’s show, the night after the big Bachelorette premiere, cohost Ryan Seacrest revealed that none other than the woman of the hour herself, Hannah Brown, would be their guest this week.

Kelly immediately proved how much of a fan she’s not by asking:
“Oh, it’s an entirely different person?”
She apparently thought it would be Cassie Randolph, who didn’t get engaged to Colton Underwood last season?
Kelly had no qualms about telling everyone exactly why she was not keeping up with the reality TV juggernaut:
“You guys, you know how I feel about the show, it disgusts me.”
Wow, that’s a strong word. She explained:
“I can’t stand the idea of 25 exceptional women fighting over one ordinary fella, in my opinion. You know how I feel, ladies, we are too special to be arguing over a guy.”
The studio audience applauded, but Kelly wasn’t buying it. She called them out as hypocrites for clapping, saying:
“Having said that. All of you women watch that gross, gross show.”
Damn, Kelly. You OK?
Ryan tried to keep it professional as he finished his recap of the week’s Bachelorette episode, even as Kelly interjected comments like “it’s all creepy.”
The man’s been hosting American Idol for nearly two decades, he knows how to tune someone’s voice out. LOLz!
Continuing to dig a hole, Kelly made a point of saying YES, she found The Bachelorette “just as creepy” as The Bachelor.
Gurl.
You did hear Ryan when he said Hannah Brown was going to be your guest THIS WEEK, right??
Oh man, that’s some daytime TV we have to see now.
But we don’t have to wait until Hannah’s appearance on Live with Kelly and Ryan to see sparks. Some Bachelor stars couldn’t wait!
Host Chris Harrison didn’t have to bring the heat — he knew the audience would do it for them once he whipped them up by tweeting:
“Look out #BachelorNation @KellyRipa is coming after you and your ‘disgusting’ Monday night habit.”
Oh man, we do not even want to see Kelly’s Twitter mentions right now.
And Mike Fleiss, the creator of The Bachelor, got right to the point:
“Easy, @KellyRipa … #TheBachelor franchise pays your salary!”
Ha!
We wonder if Kelly will respond… or if she’ll see which side of her bread is buttered and make nice when Hannah is in studio.
