Christian Slater wants TV job with Kelly Ripa

LOS ANGELES, Oct 8:  Actor Christian Slater has offered his services as US TV personality Kelly Ripa’s new talk show sidekick.
Slater wants to have two jobs; his current one as a star of TV series “Mr Robot” and as co-host on former soap actress Ripa’s New York-based morning talk show, “Live With Kelly!”
Slater revealed he wanted to be a part of the talk show during an appearance on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” and the audience wildly applauded.
“I love it. And I mean it’s so great! I live six blocks away from there (studio). It’s right in the city. It’s one of the greatest jobs ever. I love her (Ripa). She’s amazing.”
The Golden Globe-winning actor was asked by DeGeneres if he was really serious about the job.
The actor responded, “Hey Kelly, let’s do it. I can absolutely handle both jobs, yeah. I am putting my hat in the ring. I am coming. I’ll be there.” (PTI)
