RYAN Seacrest has revealed he bought a new pair of shoes to make himself look taller during his return to Live.

Ryan opted for an interesting wardrobe choice during his recent appearance on the morning show he used to host.

"Mark was saying that he thinks you look taller," Kelly Ripa told the 49-year-old of her husband's remark.

Ryan looked taken aback for a moment, then made a confession.

"So, I have to tell you a secret. I've been watching the show. You guys are great. There's a real future in this for you," he joked.

"I keep noticing you wear the heel," he told Mark.

Ryan stood up and tried to compared his heeled shoe with Mark's as he noted the new Live host's was a bit higher than his.

They both stood on one leg trying to determine the heel height on their dress shoes.

The audience cracked up as they made an attempt to balance while standing side by side.

"I know because I measured it on the screen, so I wanted to come in with some real power here, Mark," Ryan joked.

She was wearing a pair of women's high heels that are a far cry from dress shoes.

"Why do either one of you think you're wearing heels? That just looks like a shoe with a bottom on it," Kelly laughed, .

The interview continued on as usual from there.

'GO BACKSTAGE!'

During the same episode, Ryan demanded that Kelly hurry up while he appeared on the talk show.

Mark cracked up when he spotted the American Idol host standing behind the camera.

Kelly's former co-host waved his finger, signaling her to move it along, and tapped his watch many times.

"He wants to hurry it up," Mark pointed out.

Mark's wife seemed to be in no mood to be rushed.    

"No honey, we're not hurrying it up," Kelly, 53, said. 

"Go backstage, and you can come out."

Ryan seemed disappointed as he stormed off and hid backstage.

"You know, Mark, I was just reminiscing about him," Kelly turned to her hubby. 

While Mark laughed, Kelly continued with her Valentine's Day segment.

This past Friday, the program teased Ryan would be making an appearance.

His return took less than a year after leaving the hosting gig.

Kelly revealed to viewers who would be appearing on the show next week.

"Welcome back. Don't forget on Monday's show, we've got a newcomer on the scene," she teased.

"He just can't quit this place. Ryan Seacrest will be here."

 "Yes!" Mark cheered as he had a big smile on his face.

"Ry Ry's back!"

The 49-year-old star hosted Live with Kelly for six seasons before he left in April 2303 to move to Los Angeles, California, and focus on another project.
