Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper are the ultimate chaotic duo. They brought that wild energy to CNN’s New Year’s Eve coverage this year, and we couldn’t get enough. The hosts of Watch What Happens Live and Anderson Cooper 360 turned the night into a must-watch event with their hilarious antics and jaw-dropping moments.
A Surprise Roast for Anderson Cooper
As always, Andy and Anderson brought the party to CNN’s New Year’s Eve Live with Andy Cohen & Anderson Cooper. But this time, Andy had a little surprise in store for his best friend, Anderson. It was a night filled with laughs, tequila shots, and some shocking comments.
Diplo’s fashionably late Entrance sparks Anderson’s Joke
The night kicked off with Diplo, who was fashionably late due to his helicopter. Anderson joked about wanting to live that kind of life, saying, “I want one day to have a lifestyle where somebody says, ‘Oh yeah, he’s late. His helicopter’s running late.’”
But Andy, never one to miss an opportunity to roast his friend, jumped in with a dig at Anderson’s prestigious family. “Yes, the Vanderbilt boy suffers just like you,” Andy quipped, before adding, “But he doesn’t know about making love to a woman.” The crowd went wild.
Anderson’s awkward Silence sparks the Roast
Anderson, of course, was caught off guard. How did his sex life enter the conversation? Well, it all started with a question about Somebody Somewhere actress Bridget Everett. Andy asked, “Do you want to make love to her?” Anderson responded, “I don’t even know what you’re talking about.” But Andy wasn’t letting this one slide. “You don’t know what it means to make love to a woman?” he asked. “Yeah, you don’t. That’s been established on CNN right now.”
Andy’s relentless Teasing takes center Stage
The audience laughed, but Andy wasn’t done. “He don’t know about that,” he said, making sure everyone knew Anderson’s love life was a mystery. “If any of y’all had any question about that, he don’t know about that.”
Ralph Fiennes Joins the Fun
This roast session wasn’t just the highlight of the night—it was the moment that made the New Year’s Eve special unforgettable. But the chaos didn’t stop with just Andy. Even Ralph Fiennes, the star of Harry Potter, joined in on the fun. He appeared in a segment called “Recitations by Ralph,” which had fans howling. Ralph showed off a bit of skin, saying, “See my shirt. Only a little chichi out. Not my chocho.” The line immediately went viral.
Iconic Moments make Andy and Anderson’s NYE Special a Hit
