Kelly Ripa Reveals Her Ideal Co-Host

By Stapha Charleme | Aug 03, 2012 09:48 PM EDT

Kelly Ripa is just smitten with her sometimes co-host Anderson Cooper, we simply can't fault her for that. The silver-haired hunk is dreamy!

"We have a connection like nobody else," she revealed to Us Weekly magazine. "I worship him!"

We don't see Cooper vacating his namesake show on CNN, Anderson Cooper 360, anytime soon. Sorry Ripa! But the search for your other half must continue.

Although, Seth Meyers, Josh Groban, and Ryan Seacrest are fan favorites, Ripa is getting, for lack of a better word, bored with the merry-go-round situation.

"It's like The Bachelor," she said. "It's fun [to see different co-hosts], but you want the girl to settle down!" We couldn't have said it better ourselves, Ripa!

One person who has no discernible interest in replacing Regis Philbin is Ripa's husband of 16-years, Mark Consuelos.

"The one person who has zero interest in that job would be my husband," Ripa told E! News. "He always says he likes being married better than he likes doing that job because he says that it would be too much for us."

As smitten as Ripa is with Cooper, she's even more taken with her hubby, and it sounds like the feeling's mutual. Back in 2011, Consuelos admitted to Latina magazine that he still has a "crush" on his wife.
