Kelly Ripa has a leash on her “Live!” co-host, Ryan Seacrest, and it’s reported that she prohibited him from making a short appearance on “Good Morning America.” You know, the home of her former co-host, Michael Strahan. <br />According to the New York Post’s Page Six, “Ryan was scheduled to be on Wednesday’s show well in advance. He’s been on the show rundown for a week. Then… Kelly threw a shit fit and told him he couldn’t do ‘GMA,’ so he pulled his appearance.” <br />Seacrest wanted to appear to help promote his new season of “American Idol,” but chose to remain in the good graces of Kelly instead. <br />Page Six reports, “It’s very clear Ryan wants to stay on her good side. She’s an executive producer on the show, so she has a lot of pull. It’s fair to say she has a lot of influence over him. He joined her show. It sounds like she still feels threatened.” <br />Page Six also reports that Kelly’s team denies this is true.<br />Sounds like Ryan wants to make sure he doesn’t get sacked by hanging around Strahan. <br />
