Kelly and Mark told Rachael Ray they have a favorite child — and all of their kids know it! They were joking, but is that cool to say?

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’s appearance on The Rachael Ray Show won’t air until Oct. 26, but a segment from the show revealed the couple’s surprising opinion about their children! When Rachael asked if they had a favorite kid, the parents immediately said “Yes!”

“And guess what!?” Kelly added. “You guys all have favorite kids, too! You may not admit it out loud; you may say ‘I love all my kids the same,’ but you know in the event of an emergency, there’s one kid you’d reach for first.”

Mark agreed with Kelly and added that the other kids are aware of their favoritism! “He knows it, too, and the other kids know it as well,” he explained. “It’s very accepted. He’s just nicer to us! That’s what we say: He’s just nicer to us.”

So which of their three children — Michael, Joaquin and Lola — is their favorite?

“Well, we don’t really admit it,” Kelly said. “But it is Joaquin!”

Mark and Kelly were kidding, but should parents even admit they have a favorite? What do YOU think HollyMoms?

It’s about time — Kim officially states that she is not single. And mom Kris says stay tuned on the rumors about yet another new Kardashian reality show for Kendall and Kylie.

Kim Kardashian finally confirmed that she’s in a relationship with NBA basketballer Kris Humphries. After months of rumors, sightings and photos, it’s been getting pretty obvious — we’ve just been waiting for Kim to say it herself!

Appearing with her mom Kris Jenner on The Rachael Ray Show, Kim was asked about her relationship status and she was quick to state, “Not single.”

Asked about her previous vow that she was planning on staying single for a year, Kim said, “I guess I’m just a hopeless romantic. As much as you want to try, I guess it’s not the worst resolution to break. I’m having a good time, I’m happy.” Kim then proceeded to give her New Jersey Nets beau a shout-out, waving at the camera and saying, “Hi Kris!”

Rachael got Kris  to talk about reports that her two youngest daughters, Kendall, 15, and Kylie, 14, are getting their own spin-off reality show — and it looks like it’s a good bet that they will!

“We’ve been batting that around a little bit,” Kris said. “As long as they get good grades and keep doing what they’re doing and stay good girls. You never know!”

But expect to wait a little while before you see these two girls on their own show. Kris said that if it happens, it won’t be happening right away: “In a year or two. They’re a little young.”

Have you ever wondered how Nicole Polizzi, 21, became “Snooki”? You might not believe it, but it actually came from Julia Stiles‘ 2001 movie Save the Last Dance! “I think it was like eighth grade, and I was the first girl in my girlfriends to make out with a guy,” she confesses to Rachael Ray on the Jan. 21 episode of her talk show. “So you know Save the Last Dance Snooki the cootchie crook? It was the D.J. Anyway, my girls started calling me Snooki, so it just stuck ever since. I was in eighth grade!” But that’s not the only highlight from the Jersey Shore cast’s visit to the show: Ronnie Magro, 23, and Sammi Giancola, 22, talk about their relationship status, and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, 27, gives Rachael her own Jersey Shore nickname!

Ronnie says he and Sammi are still together, though their relationship has changed since the two became famous. “It’s pretty hard, but I mean you just deal with it day by day and that’s it,” he says. Sammi adds that “things are good,” but neither of them really elaborate on what happens behind closed doors.

And what would we call Rachael Ray if she became a Jersey Shore girl? Why, “The Appetizer” of course! “I think I thought of one backstage real quick!” The Situation says. “I was trying to think of something with like food and stuff like that weather it was the entrée, but I was like you know what, it’s the appetizer!”
