Andy Cohen is no stranger to stirring the pot, and he did just that during CNN’s New Year’s Eve broadcast, firing off some sharp words about former NYC Mayor Eric Adams. As the tequila flowed, Cohen criticized Adams’ time in office as “chaotic,” prompting a quick and rather scathing social media response from the mayor, who suggested Cohen should seek help for his public intoxication. Talk about a roast!
Cohen seemed unphased by the backlash, proudly showcasing an Instagram snap of a supportive Starbucks coffee cup that read, “You did amazing last night.” This wasn’t Cohen’s first controversial moment on New Year’s; he previously went viral for an equally colorful rant about former Mayor Bill de Blasio. What’s a New Year’s Eve celebration without a little controversy, right?
While many viewers found their antics entertaining, the back-and-forth certainly demonstrates the fine line celebrities walk between fun and the fallout. With Cohen’s reputation for being candid, one can’t help but wonder what he’ll say next to keep the audience on their toes!
