Today’s episode of “Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa” featured previously unreleased parts of Kelly’s interview with the late Shannen Doherty — her final before she passed — in which she shared the advice she’d give to her younger self.

“Play the game better,” Shannen told Kelly. “[Be] more cunning while saying less … I think that there was a way to not belittle myself where I start doing girl talk, baby talk, and, you know, batting my eyelashes, but I could have been more cunning, said a lot less, and done a lot better in my entire career.”

She continued, “I think that I threatened a lot of men in the business and they couldn’t handle me, and it basically destroyed my career, but yeah. That, and please pick better.”

Listen to the full episode on the SiriusXM app now. New episodes of “Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa” are available every Wednesday.
