Justin Bieber has made it very public that Kelly Ripa is his celebrity crush, but Ripa seems to just be worried about the young star.
The 21-year-old singer posted a sexy black and white photo of Ripa in white lingerie on Wednesday. "Wow, Kelly makes me feel some type of way," he captioned the photo. "No disrespect I know she's married! #bigcrush."
While flattered, the 44-year-old "Live! With Kelly and Michael" host admitted during yesterday's show that she's "worried about him," according to E! News.
"Justin, I love you, you know that I've taken my daughter to 400 Justin Bieber concerts," she began to explain to the audience. "I do believe this is a cry for help. I'm worried about him."
Co-host Michael Strahan nearly choked as he heard Ripa make the joke. "I just spit up a little bit because that was NOT what I was expecting to hear," Strahan said when Ripa asked if he'd just thrown up.
Ripa continued to share her concern for Bieber, despite whatever this is he may be going through. "If you need me, I am here," she joked. "And you can call me and we will work it out. We see each other, we'll work it out!" The two hosts then invited Bieber to come by the show next time he was in New York.
She then went on to explain that her husband of 19 years, Mark Conseuelos, seemed unfazed by Bieber's revelation, according to Us Weekly. He was only wondering where in the world they found that picture of his wife, to which she replied, "A denstist's office from 1980." She did, however, thank Bieber for the "tremendous street cred" she now got from her 14-year-old daughter Lola.
