Cheers to Tradition

Cheers to Tradition While co-hosting CNN’s New Year’s Eve Live, Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper rejoiced over the end of a previous alcohol ban. Returning to Times Square, Cohen, 55, revealed their plan for a celebratory toast, including his own tequila bottle.

Their playful banter on drinking traditions was a highlight. Cohen’s tease about “daddy getting his juice” and Cooper’s response sparked humor. Despite Cooper’s unpreparedness, Cohen’s readiness with tequila kept the toast on track.

Cooper seldom

Cohen’s reminder that Cooper seldom drinks outside the NYE special triggered fan excitement. Social media buzzed with desires for a lighthearted Cooper and Cohen on-air. Fans joked about “bullying CNN” into allowing their on-screen drinking, relishing the return of their iconic shots.

However, the duo faced restrictions during the 2022-2023 broadcast due to Cohen’s controversial remarks in the prior year’s drunken state. Cohen’s comments about Ryan Seacrest’s group and Journey during the 2021-2022 special led to their alcohol ban for the subsequent broadcast.

Mayor Bill Cheers to Tradition

Amidst the broadcast buzz, Cohen’s pointed jabs at Mayor Bill de Blasio sparked controversy. However, after reflecting on his comments about Seacrest, he expressed sincere regret. Speaking candidly on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live, he acknowledged his mistake, attributing it to inebriation.

To dispel rumors of a feud, Cohen extended an olive branch to Seacrest during a call to “On Air With Ryan Seacrest.” Both clarified their stance, stressing no lingering discord between them.

Broadcast

The drama escalated when CNN enforced a sobriety clause for the upcoming broadcast. Cohen humorously acknowledged the dry event, albeit with hints at alternative coping mechanisms to navigate the lengthy telecast.

As anticipation built for the next show, Cohen rallied for a reconsideration. In an interview with E! News, he fervently appealed to CNN, hoping they’d permit imbibing once more. He emphasized the significance of keeping the New Year’s Eve atmosphere lively, highlighting viewers’ discontent from the previous year’s sober broadcast. Cohen underlined the audience’s desire for a more vibrant and engaging celebration. Cheers to Tradition
