Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos learned the hard way that age is not just a number.
The Emmy-winning daytime hosts found themselves in an unexpected debate on aging during an interview with guest Howie Mandel on "Live with Kelly and Mark" Monday, March 23. The comedian and longtime "America's Got Talent" judge turned 70 in November.
"That doesn't make any sense," Ripa said in amazement at Mandel's age, to which he replied, "What do you mean it doesn't make any sense?"
Consuelos attempted to clarify the comment by complimenting Mandel's appearance, remarking he "look[ed] great," but the explanation didn't sit well with Mandel.
"I look great? That doesn't mean anything to me," Mandel said. "I don't like that because that's a caveat. Because when you tell somebody you're 70, they go, 'You look great [for your age].'"
