No Strahan? No problem. Mario Lopez has co-hosted many times with Kelly Ripa at “Live!” but lately there have been rumors about possibly guaranteeing a permanent position. Check out what he has to say about that.
The two have been already deemed a perfect combo. Their on-screen chemistry has peeked the interest of many viewers, as he co-hosted the show many times, almost dating back ten years. One moment that fans refer to when mentioning their great chemistry is when Mario Lopez was teaching Kelly Ripa some Tango moves waaay back in 2007.
However on his recent trip to Ellen, Mario Lopez doesn’t look like he really wants to talk about those rumors at all. He says a couple times that he is flattered by suggestions but says nothing to hint a yes or no. Now, this could be because the producers might want to keep it silent until his upcoming guest appearance or it could also be that he hasn’t been approached yet. No one really knows yet but I know for a fact, the Live audience would definitely approve.
