Ringo to Reg: I must be a Starr (Ringo Starr Walks Off "Live With Regis...")

It’s been 37 years since Ringo Starr was a Beatle but he apparently hasn’t forgotten how to be a diva.

Starr walked off the set of “Live with Regis and Kelly” yesterday rather than cut short one of his songs.

Still, [Ringo's fellow rocker Dave] Stewart blasted the show for trying to force “Ringo’s musical legacy (to) take a back seat to additional banter about the size of Ms. Ripa’s derriere.”

[SoFloFreeper]

Ringo & Dave got tired of hearing Kelly Ripa ramble. Frankly, I don't blame them. She is tedious.

[SJSAMPLE]

Good for Ringo.

[OPS4]

Kelly Ripa is the reason I stopped watching Regis on my sick days.

[Red Badger]

I’d have walked, too............

[camle]

what derriere? she ain’t got none. too scrawny.

[Piquaboy]

I got tired of the Beatles when the first time I heard them,

[massgopguy]

He’s the famous Ringo, gear fab.

[Hoodlum91]

I saw video of him last night pushing fans out of the way and literally running over them on multiple occasions. It wasn’t pretty.

That said, I’d probably run away from Kelly as well.

[brooklyn dave]

The whole show is tedious. My mother likes it, I think it’s a generational thing.

[54skylark]

Geeez what is two extra minutes. Good for Ringo.

[The Lumster]

I think the producers made the right choice.

If I have a choice between female derriere talk and Ringo singing - I’ll take female rear ends all day long

[outofstyle]

I’ll take female rear ends all day long

It depends what you mean by "take."

[BlueAngel]

I hate to say it. I tried to like her but I quit watching, too.

"I got tired of the Beatles when the first time I heard them"

Me, too. We gave up folk music to listen the this stuff? I'm still P.O'd about it, and its been 44 years!

[camle]

if I was Ringo I’d get the heck out of there as soon as I could, too. sooner if possible. Ripa is such a PINTA adn she doesn’t go well with Regis.

[Revelation 911]

tedious - but a hottie

[freepertoo]

Sorry the beauty of the music totally went over your head.

[OPS4]

Hotties are a sime a dozen, you can watch hotter hotties on many channels and the internet, not an excuse to keep no talent on a talent show.

The whole show is tedious. My mother likes it, I think it’s a generational thing.

Kinda like "Captain Kangaroo" for the geriatric set....

[johnandrhonda]

I’ll take Kelly’s rear for 100, Alex.
