14. Kelly Ripa
The former soap opera star from All My Children, former co-host of Live With Regis and Kelly and the current co-host of Live! With Kelly and Michael, who is also regarded as one of the most powerful and beloved women in media, Ripa struggled with cigarettes for years.
According to a recent interview, she was never a serious smoker, but more of a “closeted” and “social” one. She would smoke while out having drinks with friends, or sometimes in her dressing room, trying to fight those pre-show jitters. She first decided to quit when she started having children, more precisely when she found out she was going to have her first baby.
However, she took on smoking again around the time she started filming Hope and Faith. Her co-star Faith Ford urged her to kick the nasty habit for good, and with her help she did. Ripa later said that the important thing is to replace a habit with another one (a positive one, of course). In her case, it was exercise five times a week.
