Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan celebrated Halloween on Friday’s “Live with Kelly and Michael,” with a special episode called “Live’s Best Halloween Show Ever: Nightmare on 67th Street.” In one very funny segment, the co-hosts starred in a mock trailer for Magic Mike 3D, loaded with celebrity cameos. Watch below!
The fake trailer features the two hosts playing characters, who are playing characters. It’s less confusing than it sounds. Strahan is Mike Tyson, who stars in the film as a character named Rodney Steel. Ripa is non-existent movie star Brick Ramses, who plays Slim Jim, a very hairy and petite man. Ripa is covered in fake fur over most of her face and body for the hilarious sketch.
The mock preview features Strahan and Ripa stripping, of course, although black bars cover their naughty bits. The footage than cuts to an audience of very famous people who critique the film. The real Mike Tyson proclaims, “I’m gonna win an Oscar!” But those who weren’t particularly impressed by what they had witnessed included Ryan Reynolds, Julianna Margulies and Kerry Washington. On the flip side, Rob Lowe, Kate Hudson, Hugh Jackman and Bill O’Reilly were all big fans.
The skit ends with a certain someone waking up to discover that Magic Mike 3D was all a dream. Whose dream was it? Hint: He may have starred in the first two movies. The fake trailer was just one of many bits from the “Live With Kelly And Michael” Halloween show. Additional costumes worn and TV and movies that were mocked included “Empire,” “Shark Tank” and Star Wars. Watch the “trailer” for Magic Mike 3D, and tell Gossip Cop what you think.
