Fans Are Calling Kelly Ripa 'Tone-Deaf' For Worrying About Gray Hair During Pandemic

On a recent episode, her husband Mark Consuelos told her that “Since I met you, you told me that you’re gray. And I gotta tell you, I see you in the morning and I think it looks beautiful."

“Which is probably by the end of the week,” Kelly responded, showing her gray roots off. "I’m running out of spray … so yeah, you’ll get to see my gray hair any second now.”

Some fans called her "tone deaf" for complaining about how she looks while there is so much fear and suffering going on in the world right now due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Ellen DeGeneres was similarly called out for "complaining" despite her privileges, and fans were quick to point out that while celebrities are bored or worried about their hair in their mansions, other people are dying.

Kelly has been updating her followers on Instagram about her gray roots with her regular "root watch" stories, but some fans haven't been enjoying those either, with one commenting, "there's so much more important things happening."

What do you think? Should Kelly be allowed to worry about what her hair looks like, or should she acknowledge her privilege and try not to complain? Let us know in the comments!
