NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Denise Richards looked stunning in a little dress and heels despite the fact that New York City is now experiencing a deluge. However, as photographs of the 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum surface online, viewers get anxious about what she did to her face.

Denise went on 'Live with Kelly and Mark' to discuss Lifetime's latest Real Housewives movie, 'Hunting Housewives'. She arrived prepared to impress in a light blue tweed-style short dress with cap sleeves, bejeweled pockets, and button lines.

The preppy dress looked sophisticated, with a delicately ruffled hem that highlighted her long, toned legs. Denise added a dash of glamour to her preppy short dress by wearing sky-high, sparkly stiletto shoes.

Amidst the glam, fans couldn't help but ask on Instagram, "What the heck happened to her face?" While one quipped, "Omg I didn’t even recognize her."

One user guessed, "Why does this look like an AI combo of Denise Richards and valerie bertinelli." A fourth user joked, "When there is no filter available."

One user claimed, "She looked better with blonde hair. This brown hair makes her look very aged." Another user chimed in, "I can’t wait to see the facetuned pics on her IG where she looks like a completely different person."

Some fans went on to call it, "A hot mess." "Yikes! I didn't even recognize her," wrote another.

'RHOBH' alum Denise Richards almost flashes Live audience in near-wardrobe malfunction

Denise nearly flashed the 'Live with Kelly and Mark' audience while wearing a skimpy blue dress. She donned a short, light-blue dress that required her to cross her legs to avoid revealing anything she didn't want to expose on live television.

She kept her legs crossed, but in a way that revealed a bit more than she expected. As her interview with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos progressed, she appeared to be unaware of her precarious situation.

Denise stayed in the same position for almost the whole interview. Her toned legs were on full display as she wore a pair of white floral peep-toe shoes.

She remained in the same posture in the interview about 'Hunting Housewives'. Even after the broadcast went to commercial, it didn't appear like anyone noticed the oversight.

Denise Richards' daughters had ‘no interest’ in her career until they saw 'RHOBH' alum on 'Friends'

Denise's girls had little interest in her job until they saw her on one of their favorite television series. The actress revealed that her children Sami Sheen, Lola Sheen, and Eloise Joni Richards were surprised to find that their mother had been on an episode of 'Friends'.

"Do your daughters think it was cool you were on an episode of Friends? Because I was on an episode and my kids think it was the [coolest]," co-host Mark inquires.

"They’re like, ‘When did you do that?’ I’m like, ‘Before you were born!’"

"Right, and it’s so funny because my kids had no interest in knowing anything [about my career], they didn’t care, but I think they saw me on a TikTok with the hair thing, and they were like [excited], ‘You were on Friends!?’ I was like, ‘Yeah!'" Denise recalls.

"Suddenly you have a full career," co-host Kelly, jokes. "Yes exactly!" Denise agrees.

Denise Richards and Nene Leakes barely cross paths in 'Hunting Housewives'

Fans may be startled to learn that, despite appearing in the same scenes, NeNe Leakes and her co-stars in 'Hunting Housewives' have never met.

"The scenes I was in with her, she wasn't on set," Denise revealed. "We had a stand-in, but Kim Johnson got to work with her."

She said, "I was hoping I'd be able to work with her!"
