Howey Mandel stopped by live with Kelly and Mark on Monday, and things got a bit tense

when hosts Kelly Riepa and Mark Consuelos brought up his recent.

Seventy of Birthday.

They complemented how great he looks, but Mandel quickly called it out as a backhandy

remark tied to his age.

Riepa tried to clarify they meant he looks great period, not just for Seventy.

Still, Mandel pushed back, insisting the age mentioned made it feel like a caveat, no

matter what.

Consuelos owned up to it, agreeing that was the intent.

Mandel compared it to telling a stupid person they're smart, and yeah, Consuelos went

along with that one too.

The crowd laughed it off, and Mandel lightened the mood by turning to them and declaring

he's actually gorgeous.

The show even set up a partition for his germophobia, but he accidentally knocked it loose

while walking out.

Meanwhile, a former America's Got Talent hopeful, Turn Drag Race star, is shading Mandel

these days over her old audition rejection.
