People Are Hating On Andy Cohen’s New Year’s Eve Hosting Performance on CNN
Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen teamed together on CNN for the network’s New Year’s Eve show, and as it were many Twitter followers weren’t so happy with his performance — demanding them to bring its original cohost, Kathy Griffin, back.
Kathy was fired after her controversial photo where she held a severed head in Donald Trump’s likeness. She has been publicly critical of the new choice, and even filmed a video calling out Andy Cohen after he pretended not to know her name in a TMZ video.
Andy was brought in as a replacement for Kathy, and Twitter was not impressed.
Considering they are best friends, Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen have absolutely zero chemistry. Anderson seems like he wants to be anywhere but Times Square. #CNNNYE

Someone please bring back @kathygriffin to #CNNNYE! This shit is boring AF & I’m sick of hearing Andy promote the damn housewives. Sorry, but Kathy & Anderson were perfection.

Andy doesn’t seem to be too funny. He’s only good at reigning in angry housewives in a reunion show. They should’ve kept Kathy or promoted @donlemon or @richardquest next to Anderson. #CNNNYE

Andy Cohen is SO condescending. He just made fun of the elderly. OMG. And both he and Anderson are making fun of the people in Times Square. It’s a shitshow. AWFUL.
