Would have been nice to be able to actually hear Anderson talk.

[@johnsmith100]

Yup, that lady there is a man eater :)

[@hugoeekhout]

Its clear why she doesnt have 3 shows

[@sheelahales4738]

She would not let poor Anderson get a word in. SO RUDE

[@pamplayer4086]

Can she shut up n let Anderson talk the show is not all about her why have guests if they can’t get a word in very annoying thank u very much

[@aec9174]

Dear Lord, she has the loudest voice I've ever heard!!! Let the man talk!!!

[@Nicolek122202]

Why hate Anderson? He didn't control who his mother is (which, by the way, is his best friend). He's actually a very polite, funny guy. I had the pleasure of meeting him in NYC a few years back & he's a really nice guy. By the way-his dad was dirt poor growing up in Mississippi. Anderson is very humble and far from rude or arrogant. Furthermore, his mothers money isn't going to him. He has his own money.

[@carpediem2445]

Indeed!

[@moufpiee7225]

Nicole Khamsawath you must know how of an exaggerated Reporter he is on CNN. You must know know about the pool in his other mansion in NC. The Biltmore Mansion.

[@Nicolek122202]

Okward_Krew darling...boy, oh boy! He has changed! My opinion of him and respect for him has ALSO changed. Tremendously! If anything, you could call me anti-CNN, lol!!! 😂What a damn shame! Was an excellent reporter. Now he’s a political hack & utter disgrace!

[@CMRinehart]

Anderson did get his moms money. Google it.

[@MrRocktex1978]

he is an awful biased journalist so what do you know

She was soooo annoying. can u let Anderson speak?

I totally agree. I really wish I could have been there to slap the crap out of her, and tell please let Anderson talk!

Michael B Omg I know !!! Anderson NEVER talks about this aspect of his life and finally he’s telling us some interesting stuff (like his cousin still lives there) and this idiot guest keeps talking over him with her unfunny jokes.

[@laurieb2296]

Michael B I was going to type that! She is annoying! Then she says you had a horrible childhood. Hello his dad died when he was 10 and brother committed suicide .Love ❤️Anderson and the relationship he had with his mom... priceless!

She really got on my nerves

[@dianasargent4861]

WHO was the RUDE Interviwer? Consta tly interrupted Anderson, then had the audacity and poor choice to sarcastically made fun of his childhood!!!!

[@Human4Peace]

Stop interrupting him!!

[@TaDarling1]

The Co-Host Judy Gold was horrible. She kept over-talking Cooper. He couldn't get a word in. She was asking him to help her get a show but she's not even capable of conducting a decent interview and allowing the interviewee to speak.

[@TerryComo2010]

She should stop interrupting! ANNOYING!

[@doberman1ism]

I worked at the Cornelius Vanderbilt estate The Breakers in Newport Rhode Island. It is a architectural wonder. It is a 75 room Italian Renaissance villa that was used only six weeks out of the year during the summer and was always referred to as a Cottage. I met The Countess who lived on the third floor and she was such a gracious woman. I believe she was Anderson Cooper's cousin or aunt. I know that The Countess had grown up in The Breakers. Working in that magnificent Villa is a job that I truly enjoyed it and look back on with fond memories.

[@pilotjones9866]

Aidah Di Leoni does the vanderbilts still own that cottage? Like do they have full control and authority over what happens or is it partially owned by a museum or something?

[@danyellerobinson5940]

San Simeon and Hearst castles are lovely

[@kira24ist]

Felix Qt the property belongs to the preservation historic society in Newport. They are removing the remaining family members from the top floor apartment. They have full control of the property -pretty much they lost the property to the state. No one sells a mansion for 376K. The preservation is transforming the mansion into a Welcome Center and will allow businesses in the property (corporate rental) as an extra income for this “preservation”. They removed the family saying electrical, plumbing were outdated and therefore not fit for residential. But it’s not dangerous enough to ban people from going in and out of the museum. The vanderbilt family says they have kept the third floor renovated and up to code - that the preservation is basically kicking them out.

[@annmcdonald7713]

[@stanairmi]

Uuuugh.... that voice!

[@DustyRoyce]

It is very unfortunate that this woman was being incredibly rude to him, kept interrupting and basically shaming him for his family history and wealth that wasn’t just given to him. He built his own brand, reputation and successful career and deserves the 3 shows.. he is a very humble, respected and kind man who didn’t deserve this kind of negativity directed at him.

[@JeannieH1006]

So true. She was horrible!

Does that woman actually know what a normal volume of speech is? Is this her "I am being a comic voice"?

[@poiui843]

Why are they screaming like that?

[@Pius-XI]

Would have been interesting if she let him speak. No wonder Americans are know for being loud with her as an example.

[@StevenTorrey]

When Anderson Cooper is on with Kelly Ripa, he says he is from the poor side of the Vanderbilt's.

[@donnawoodford8145]

Anderson shouldn't have to explain himself to anyone. He knows that the family money is gone, and lucky for us, he graces us with a combination of being real and goofy at the same time.

They invented jazz

He's so funny! Kinda ordinary.

[@racer83racing]

these cottages had to be huge because the guests had maids and butlers etc. so the house had to function as a hotel; Alice Vanderbilt was very upset at the huge size of the house when she first saw it but the architect had to make it functional for entertaining

[@happyday2440]

Convert this mansion into a homeless shelter

[@DL-uv1ob]

@@happyday2440 regarding possible uses for the Breakers... If you actually wished to suggest something useful to help the homeless, use your head. Changing The Breakers into a homeless shelter would only result in turning it into a money pit with no source of income... ultimately helping no one as it deteriorated. Instead, if anything, keep The Breakers as is (profitable) and require a certain percentage of the income be used to build and maintain real homeless shelters. Tourism and events would allow for a constant revenue stream. Not to mention, what is a homeless person going to do in Newport? It's wildly impractical. I would like to presume your flippant and ridiculous comment was facetious rather than just petty, ignorant, and full of envy. :::rolling my eyes:::
