ABC's "Good Morning America" show has redesigned its set to hide co-host George Stephanopoulos' "little-boyish mini-legs."
GMA added a silver panel across from the anchors' desk at mid-level a month ago, Page Six reported Wednesday night. The panel was added to cover up where Stephanopoulos rested his feet on the chair, which had been "visible and awkward," according to an insider.
Stephanopoulos is 5-foot-7, much shorter than his co-anchors Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan, who are 5-foot-10 and 6-foot-5, respectively.
"He's 5-foot-6 and is dwarfed by human trees Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan," the insider told Page Six. " 'GMA' initially thought using an anchor desk with elevated chairs would help the problem. Still awkward, George's little-boyish mini-legs were seen dangling."
Rumors surfaced in 2011 that Stephanopoulos could be replaced because networks executives liked the way 6-foot-3 Josh Elliot looked next to Roberts.
