Is Kelly Ripa getting replaced on "Live! With Kelly and Ryan?"

The 50-year-old has been a no-show for two consecutive days on the morning show, and now, it seems like she's facing some stiff competition from the woman who is "temporarily" replacing her this week.

Ryan Seacrest was joined by a new face the past two days because her "All My Children" actress co-host is missing.

Now, fans are hoping that the temporary replacement becomes a permanent deal.

The "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" producer was joined by media personality and host Maria Menounos.

She got on the show showing off her long legs in her tiny shorts and a cute jacket. Her ensemble was completed with high heels and was introduced as a "co-host" by Ryan.

On Twitter, fans comforted Maria and shared prayers, and expressed their sadness about the news of her mom.
