The Internet Is Losing It Over Anderson Cooper And Andy Cohen's Drunk NYE Live Show

Remember when people were saying, "CNN had better let Anderson Cooper black out on New Year's Eve" for fighting for his life while covering Hurricane Milton back in October 2024?

Well, Anderson and Andy Cohen returned for their annual tradition of reporting live from Times Square, knocking back a couple of tequila shots, and every moment is going viral.

People noticed Anderson cracking up when he realized he had no idea that one of the funniest moments of 2024 was the disastrous Glasgow "Willy Wonka Experience."

Comedian and correspondent Roy Wood Jr. hilariously doubled down on why they won't catch him sipping or "slippin'" tequila on TV.

The internet had something to say about Andy's Freudian slip saying his trainer was "the em-bottom" instead of "embodiment," which was almost as shocking as the trainer being shirtless in the cold New York winter.

Folks got a kick out of Anderson roasting Andy's dance moves and outfit from a viral video of him dancing at a Dead & Company show in Las Vegas.

After Andy kept throwing shade at Mayor Eric Adams, Anderson tried to promote more "Kindness in 2025" and change the subject, which caught everybody's attention.

Both Andy and Anderson were caught entirely off guard when Diplo revealed that LSD wasn't just the name of his musical project with Labrinth and Sia, and he's really about that life on live television.

Comedian Whitney Cummings roasted 2024 and the mainstream media all in one fell swoop while the mainstream media cohosts giggled on the sidelines.

Andy let his intrusive thoughts win and asked a wild question to the sword swallower.

In my opinion, the best moment was Andy convincing Ralph Fiennes to read a monologue from Jools Lebron's viral "demure" TikTok video.

There's a reason Ralph is an award-winning actor because he bodied this monologue.

Andy and Anderson had the tipsy "comedic timing" down to a science.

This person said, "Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen on NYE is my groundhog day," and their hilarious antics predicts how the new year will turn out.

"CNN allowing Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen to get plastered on live TV every New Year’s eve is the only beneficial thing they have given to this nation," another person suggested.

In the end, people always look forward to Andy and Anderson's drunk NYE coverage.

And in case you're wondering if they survived the night without a serious hangover, Andy tweeted at 6:28 a.m. the next morning. Although, there's no telling if he actually went to bed.
