It has been almost four years since Michael Strahan announced that he was leaving Live with Kelly and Michael, and he has not really talked about his controversial exit until now.
The Good Morning American host sat down with New York Times Magazine and revealed how it all went down. He told them that, “I didn’t wake up and say, ‘I want a job at G.M.A.’ I was asked to do it by the people who run the network. It was really not a choice. It was a request. But it was treated as if I was the guy who walked in and said, ‘I’m leaving.’ Then he added, “That part was totally misconstrued, mishandled in every way. People who should have handled it better have all apologized, but a lot of the damage had already been done.”
After everything went down with Kelly Ripa being upset about his new job, he still tried to have weekly meetings with her. They did a few, but then she decided she did not want to do them anymore.
Does he have any animosity towards his former co-host? He said, “I don’t hate her. I do respect her for what she can do at her job. I cannot say enough about how good she is at her job.”
I wonder if she would say the same about him. Probably not. However, at the end of the day, it worked out for both of them. He has Strahan, Sara and Keke, and she has Ryan Seacrest.

Back in the ’80s, everyone was working out to Jane Fonda. Then people discovered Yoga and Pilates. Well, not everyone. That is because Michael Strahan revealed on Strahan, Sara, and Keke today that he works out to the legendary actress’ workout tape to get rid of his BOB, aka Big Old Butt.
By the looks of his BOB, it is working. Talking about working, I am going to start working out to Fonda. Millions of people and Strahan cannot be wrong. Who wants to do it with me?
BTW It takes a big man to admit he works out to Fonda, and as we can see, he is a very big man. In height only, the exercise made everything else small.

Today on Strahan, Sara and Keke, they got some of the most beloved television sitcom parents of the ’80s and ’90s to appear on the ABC talk show to give us some Thanksgiving tips. What knowledge did Boy Meets World’s William Russ and Home Improvement’ Patricia Richardson, Growing Pains’ Joanna Kerna and Wonder Years’ Dan Luria, Sister, Sister’s Tim Reid and his real-life wife Daphne Reid who was on Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and Family Matters’ Jo Marie Payton and Reginald VelJohnson (who are not a real-life couple) share with the hosts? Nothing usable for our Turkey Day festivities, but it was nice to see them all on our TV screens.
Michael Stahan, Sara Haines and Keke Palmer gave us all something to be thankful for on Thursday. They brought on some of our favorite choices of people who we wanted to be our parental units when we were growing up, and we got to see that we still want them for our moms and pops.
Just like kids, you should not have favorites. However, which one of these TV rents would you want as your own?

Sara Haines and Keke Palmer are so obsessed with Bravo’s In a Man’s World, they decided they wanted to find out what it is like to live as the opposite sex. Today Strahan, Sara and Keke, we found out if they were able to do it.
Their first step included them getting a tutorial to find out how the other half lives. Then they had to work on their manly voices before they sat down with hair and makeup for the final transition. When all of that was done, it was time for them to hit the road to see if people would actually believe that they were really Jacks.
Palmer had no problem convincing people she was Keelan. However, her co-anchor, Sean, seemed to creep people out. While Haines was creepy and failed at hitting on women, Palmer noticed she was scaring people. Strahan explained to her why people were afraid of her when she was a he. It is something women do that men don’t.
Do you or don’t you believe that they were grown-up boys? Sorry, Haines, but I don’t know what you were. Palmer, on the other hand, would have fooled me.
Is this the last time we have seen Keelan and Sean? Looks they will be back. In fact, they liked going undercover so much, they cannot wait to do it again. Wonder what they will do next?

Michael Strahan, Sara Haines and Keke Palmer decided to have some fun together and recreate the opening to the iconic ’70s sitcom Three’s Company for their morning talk show Strahan, Sara and Keke. It is so awful that it is actually really groovy. The thing that makes so far out is that they were having a total blast. At the end of the day that is all that matters.
What does Suzanne Somers think of it? She wrote, “You NAILED IT @michaelstrahan @sarahaines @keke! Loved seeing you guys on @goodmorningamerica!! XXOO the OG Chrissy Snow! 🎥 @strahansarakeke #threescompany” I betcha if John Ritter were still with us, he would have begged to be Mr. Roper in it.
