Anderson Cooper’s Best Giggling Moments w/ Andy Cohen From CNN’s New Year’s Eve Show

Anderson Cooper couldn't shake a few laugh attacks during CNN's "New Year's Eve Live!" The presenter, 56, appeared on the broadcast alongside his friend and co-host Andy Cohen on Dec. 31, and he couldn't stop giggling to kick off their night with their traditional yet infamous first shot of the night. After a few hours, the dynamic duo welcomed Neil Patrick Harris to chat with them live from Atlantis in the Bahamas, and once again Anderson couldn't stop cracking up during a fun drinking game of "Never Have I Ever." The host's laughing didn't faze the "How I Met Your Mother" alum, as he revealed it was "one of the great joys" for the end of his year. Anderson's giggles didn't stop with NPH. Close to midnight, the hosting pair welcomed John Mayer to the screen who called in from a cat cafe in Tokyo, Japan, while Anderson immediately erupted into uncontrollable laughter seeing the singer surrounded by kitties.

[@zyxw2000]

I've never seen their show before. Are they so giggly because they're drinking? FYI--cat bars and cat cafes are very big in Japan. There's now a cat cafe in California.

[@greeneyedwarlock882]

No Anderson Cooper was not so giggly because he was drinking. CNN cut down on their alcohol consumption big time because in the past few years, Andy Cohen kind of made a jerk out of himself. So they’ve only had maybe two drinks. What Anderson Cooper had become hysterical about was simply the image of John Mayer, sitting at that bar, straight faced, with all those cats asses walking by him, and pointed directly at him throughout the whole shot. John Mayer kept a complete straight face, and the juxtaposition of the two is what made Anderson completely lose his shit. I thought it was fantastic!

[@queenjustine66]

@@greeneyedwarlock882 they were having a shot at the top of each hour, and Anderson hardly drinks at all so it hits him harder. His helpless giggles are something i never knew i needed to hear so much =)

[@greeneyedwarlock882]

@@queenjustine66 Agreed on Coopers hysterical laugh attacks which were WONDERFUL. However I’m sure they only had 3 drinks at most but yes, they probably did help him with those laughing fits 🤣

[@Benz5469]

​@greeneyedwarlock882 They had 4-5 shots, which might not be a lot for somebody who drinks often (which explains why Andy was more composed throughout the broadcast), but since Anderson doesn't really drink at all it definitely hit him a lot harder.

[@progressive59]

They are totally flirting with each other too ❤🎉

[@queenjustine66]

Nah, they're good friends.

[@Taco_Raider]

What's the difference between Anderson Cooper and a freezer? A freezer doesn't fart at you when you pull out the meat

[@monejohn9973]

Whatever substance Anderson Cooper is on,Id love to try some.😅sounding like the joker but looking like an old gay vampire 😅

[@zyxw2000]

I hope you were joking. He's a very good-looking man. (No, I'm not gay.)

[@Rebwell]

Agreed, he and his laughter are beautiful 😆

[@greeneyedwarlock882]

You’re about 12 going on 8, right??

[@macareuxmoine]

Anderson is wasted on CNN. He should have his own channel: „I cure your depression“.

[@michelfraenkel4920]

only wierdoes laugh so unhinged after a cupple of shots

[@Bobby-dl6tg]

His laugh is so creepy

[@herbzzz]

Hard to imagine anything more depressing than watching this crap on New Year’s eve

[@zyxw2000]

Why did you watch it, troll?

[@balotofi]

watching it afterwards on youtube and then commenting, maybe?

[@sweettea2097]

Thought it was cringey. Had to turn it
