Kelly Ripa is looking quite popular.
On a recent episode of their morning show, the co-host of “Live With Kelly and Mark” underwent a remarkable transformation, barely resembling themselves as they channeled Ariana Grande‘s character from the movie “Wicked”.
On February 25th, Kelly’s Instagram post showcased a striking resemblance to Ariana Grande as Glinda, with an outfit reminiscent of the Good Witch’s debut attire in the movie: a soft pink dress, a gray hat, and a matching pink handbag. To perfectly mimic Ariana, famous makeup artist Kristofer Buckle lent his expertise – a professional who has also worked with Blake Lively, Mariah Carey, and Lindsay Lohan.
Kelly, who has children Michael Consuelos (age 27), Lola Consuelos (age 23), and Joaquin Consuelos (age 22) with husband Mark Consuelos, posted a behind-the-scenes video showcasing her transformation into character. This project was quite an endeavor.

Clad in the iconic blue-and-red western attire reminiscent of “Die With A Smile” singers’ music video, they flaunted the extravagant wigs that made these artists’ looks so unforgettable.
