Overheard just now on Livewith Regis and Kelly , where American Idol judge Randy Jackson is guest co-hosting:
Kelly Ripa: I wanna get into the fact that so far, you've called me "Man," "Dude," and "Dawg." It's kind of awesome that you don't gender specify your Mans, Dudes and Dawgs.
Randy Jackson: Yeah, it's all terms of affection!
Kelly Ripa: When you talk to men, do you ever say, "Honey," "Sweetie," or "Sweetpea"?
Randy Jackson: No, Ryan does more of that.
