Kelly Ripa jokes she only wears bras 'to hold her microphone' on air
The 54-year-old talk show host quipped that the average age of her bras is "thousands of years" because "they don't get a big workout".
During a discussion about the history of bras on Live with Kelly and Mark, she quipped: "I'm not asking a lot of them, if you know what I'm saying. You know what I mean?
"Basically, I wear a bra to hold my microphone on. That is why I wear a bra, not to hold anything else, because there's nothing else there.
"I don't care if you're offended. Shut it! That is why I wear a bra, just to put a microphone on. So, I don't ask a lot."
Her husband and co-star Mark Consuelos, also 54, joked his bra preference is "the ones that had the little snaps at the front", and she admitted he was "very good" at remvoing those.
She teased: "I was so impressed. I was like 'wow' and I mean this guy knows his way around a bra."
Last month, Kelly admitted she once debated a breast augmentation, as she joked about her small bust.
She told the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast: "I have no boobs.
"We know that I'm flat-chested. It's not a mystery at this point. It's almost a point of pride."
Although she's been tempted in the past, she ends up reading "horror stories" about botched surgeries which puts her off.
She said: 'I've gone to more breast augmentation consults than I would like to admit.
"Like, every time I hear about the new boob guy, I go and I have a consult. And I'm like, 'What? What will you do?' And they always, like, say all the right things and do all the right things.
"And, you know, because our cell phones listen to us … It pops up. And I scroll through, like, so many horror stories of boob jobs.'
Meanwhile, a lot of her friends have had breast augmentations in the past, but it doesn't stop there.
She explained: "They've had multiple because, like, every ten years or so, you have to, like, swap them out.
"So let's say I get them at 55. Right? That means at 65, I have to swap them out. At 75, I'm on my second pair? Let's say I live to 85, I'm going under the knife again?"

Paul Kelly farewells Joe in How to Make Gravy sequel
Paul Kelly has surprised fans with a sequel to his beloved single How to Make Gravy, finally revealing what happened to Rita after Joe was sent to prison. The long-awaited follow-up track, Rita Wrote a Letter, was released on Thursday, picking up from the singer-songwriter's 1996 hit. How to Make Gravy is one of Kelly's most popular songs. It features the incarcerated Joe, who reflects on being separated from his family at Christmas time in a prisoner letter addressed to Dan. For three decades, the song has been a soundtrack staple for holiday road trips and turkey lunches. The track was voted as Australia's ninth-best song of all time in the triple j Hottest 100 Australian songs countdown, and has also been adapted into an award-winning feature film. The sequel continues the storyline from the original song, except Joe is dead and Rita has moved on with love interest, Joe's brother Dan. Kelly foreshadowed its release in a death notice for Joe published in a Melbourne newspaper on Monday, claiming he died from a "sudden misadventure". The obituary described the song's pivotal character as a beloved father, husband, brother, brother-in-law, and uncle to Dan, Rita, Stella, Roger, Mary, Angus, Frank, and Dolly - all names featured in the song. It also announced an August 14 funeral to be followed by a "wake to end all wakes". The sequel is the first single in Kelly's album SEVENTY, to be released on November 7, named for his milestone birthday in January. Kelly released the single alongside a music video, starring himself and long-time friend and actress Justine Clarke as Rita. The song's release precedes one of Kelly's biggest tours to-date, kicking off in Perth on August 26, before heading to Brisbane, Sydney, Hobart, Adelaide, and Melbourne, then multiple New Zealand venues. The 70-year-old has tallied multiple awards over his extensive career including the 2017 Order of Australia, along with 17 ARIAs and five APRAs. His long list of hit singles include To Her Door, From Little Things Big Things Grow and Leaps and Bounds.
