On today's "LIVE with Kelly," high-school teacher RICHARD CURTIS of Perkasie, Pennsylvania, was announced as the winner of the "LIVE with Kelly and You" co-host search. The big reveal was made this morning when he walked out hand-in-hand with Kelly Ripa to co-host the show. Curtis was a co-hosting natural, from shooting the breeze with Ripa during the opening "Host Chat" segment, to interviewing actors Elijah Wood and Sullivan Stapleton, to "meeting" America's Biggest Pumpkin.
"LIVE" received thousands of entries for the search, and Curtis' creative video submission and written pitch, in which he described himself as "positively positive" and a "motivational madman," stood out. After making it to the top five, he competed on-air all week long for his chance at snagging the coveted co-host spot for the day.
"LIVE with Kelly" is distributed in national
Syndication by Disney|ABC Home Entertainment and TV Distribution. The show is produced by WABC-TV in New York and executive produced by Michael Gelman and Kelly Ripa. Visit "LIVE" on the web at LiveKelly.com, on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@LiveKelly), and Snapchat (LiveKelly).
