Kelly Ripa is back after ending the year by going missing in action. The 50-year-old "LIVE With Kelly and Ryan" host may have ended 2020 away from the stage but she's kicking the new year off with her co-host Ryan Seacrest and she's never looked better. She returned to work on Monday, January 4, after about a week off but killed it with her wardrobe the following day.
In a video shared on the morning show's official Instagram page, Kelly Ripa can be seen struggling to walk in her skintight dress of choice.
Sliding her Emmy-winning curves into a form-fitting navy dress that hugged her body in all the right places, Kelly Ripa took baby steps walking down the famous hallway while making her way to the stage. Adding inches to her frame, and making her strut even harder, the beloved television personality paired the look with a pair of sky-high pointed heels.
It wasn't until Kelly Ripa turned around that the fans of "LIVE" really got a show with a look at her tight rearview. Scroll to see Kelly's strutting it!
After eating up "super immune boost" while heading out to the morning show stage on Tuesday, January 5, Kelly Ripa caused imaginations to run wild when she turned her back towards the camera to reveal a zipper with the function to melt her dress off in one swoop.
Although she had a slit at the bottom of the sexy number to assist her in walking, it didn't seem to work. Kelly Ripa couldn't even do her famous hip swing once she got out in front of the camera. She seemed happy to be right at home and smashed her [comeback look. Keep scrolling!

Her potentially fatal zipper wasn't the only daring feature on her dress. Kelly Ripa's insanely tight garb had a metal piece adorning her collarbone that would make even Wonder Woman jealous. The back of her dress not only featured the head-to-knee zipper but also lacey cutouts.
While her morning walkout was a struggle, Kelly Ripa finally found her balance when she crossed her gorgeous legs while sitting on her high host chair. In another photo shared on the show's IG, the star was seen sitting six-feet away from her co-host Ryan Seacrest.
Smiling big while folding her killer pins, Kelly Ripa flashed her signature pearly whites with the guest on Tuesday's show, "Cobra Kai" star Ralph Macchio. Posing with the actor who was standing more than a safe distance in front of them, the "LIVE" hosts seemed pumped to talk all things karate. "Cobra Kai" returned to Netflix for season three on January 1 and has already hit #1 in the USA.
While Kelly Ripa's interviewing the most-streamed star right now, the host and her killer fashion sense are #1 in our hearts.
