Anderson Cooper Reveals Why He Never Dated Andy Cohen

Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen were set up on a blind date long before they were famous and they never actually made it to the date!

The 49-year-old CNN anchor says that he was talking to Andy, 48, on the phone before their date, but the Bravo host broke his “cardinal rule” of dating.

“Andy and I were first set up on a blind date, which never happened because we had a phone call and after two minutes I said, ‘I’m not dating this guy,’” Anderson said on Watch What Happens Live. “He broke my cardinal rule … he mentioned my mom within the first four sentences of meeting me.”

Anderson appeared on the show alongside their mutual friend Kelly Ripa and they all brought their personal assistants along with them. Make sure to watch the video of the assistants revealing details about their bosses!
