Michael Strahan To Join “Live” With Kelly Ripa?

TMZ is reporting that Michael Strahan will become Kelly Ripa’s new co-host on Live. If true, Strahan will take a seat next to Kelly beginning on September 4. The guests that day will include American Idol winner, Phillip Philips.

Michael Strahan was picked to partner with Kelly Ripa on her morning syndicated show … this according to staffers at ABC in New York City.

Several staffers told TMZ … the talk in the building is that Strahan — who played in the NFL and won a Super Bowl ring — will be announced as the co-host.

Strahan’s rep was seen outside the building on 67th and Columbus a short time ago grinning from ear to ear.

Strahan tried out for the gig in June and apparently impressed the suits.

BTW … Strahan is 6’5″ … Kelly is 5’3″. Dancing should be fun.
