Video - Anderson Cooper Cracks Up on Air During Gérard Depardieu Story

Anderson Cooper is usually a very serious person.

Last night during a story on French actor Gérard Depardieu peeing in the aisle of an airplane while waiting for take-off on the tarmac, Cooper broke into giggles and just couldn’t stop.

Anderson’s segment titled “The RidicuList” was laced with pee jokes and inferences to poop and public urination.

It was actually pretty funny watching the normally stoic Anderson lose it and crack up in such an uncontrollable fashion.

But the funny puns finally cracked his usually serious personality – and he lost it.

The airline in questions was CityJet, and they responded via twitter saying,

“As you may have seen on the news we are busy mopping the floor on one of our planes this morning. We’d also like to remind our passengers that are jest are fully equipped with toilet facilities.”

Cooper later told his viewers that this was the first time he has ever lost it like that on camera.

That may be true.

However, we do have another video of Anderson being pranked by CNN producers when they put up a picture of him from elementary school during a live broadcast.

Coppers show on CNN has been lagging in the ratings this year, coming in almost last place behind idiot Piers Morgan.

Ever since revelations that Anderson was gay surfaced, and rumors about him marrying his same sex partner after New York changed their same sex marriage laws, critics have wondered if Copper would be able to stay at CNN.

But Cooper has a certain hard hitting style of journalism that critics say make him an important asset to the network even if it’s not with his current show.

We kind of like the guy and think he’s easy to watch and brings a sense of fair reporting to the news that we don’t see on other networks.

We say keep him.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper to Marry Gay Boyfriend? Adopt a Child?

We’ve all heard the rumors.

We didn’t want to believe them...

But it turns out that CNN journalist and host Anderson Cooper may be ready to marry his gay boyfriend.

Copper has hinted about his homosexuality but has never really come out and addressed it directly, although he has appeared in “Out” and “The Advocate” Magazines.

Over the last several years Cooper has been linked with gay club owner Benjamin Maisini, and is frequently seen out in public riding bikes and shopping around New York. The two own an old renovated Fire House on Long Island - fire pole included.

Anderson, 44, is the son of wealthy Gloria Vanderbilt but has always wanted to make a go in television on his own merits – and not those of his rich parents.

But the National Inquirer is reporting that mama Gloria has all but outed the couple saying,

“Anderson and Ben are in love, but they were on the verge of breaking up. Between Anderson’s dangerous work assignments and Ben’s crazy hours at the club, the guys reached an impasse.”

They also say that Gloria worked hard to bring the two back together after they almost broke up. She says all she want’s is for Anderson to be happy and settle down with Ben and adopt a child.

When asked his sexuality in an interview Cooper responded,

"I understand why people might be interested. But I just don’t talk about my personal life. It’s a decision I made a long time ago, before I ever even knew anyone would be interested in my personal life. The whole thing about being a reporter is that you're supposed to be an observer and to be able to adapt with any group you’re in, and I don’t want to do anything that threatens that."

Cooper has discussed openly that he would like to adopt a child but says the lack of time and his career prevents him from doing it now.

And poor CNN - they may be in a bit of a PR crisis these days as just last week anchorman Don Lemon admitted that he was gay – not that there is anything wrong with that.

Were pretty sure CNN doesn’t want a whole lot of attention drawn to them because of their correspondents sexuality – ratings are low enough already.

Not that there is anything wrong with that…

CNN’s Anderson Cooper Pranked on CNN during Justin Bieber Story – Video

CNN correspondent Anderson Cooper was the butt of a practical joke today.

During a story about Justin Bieber a photo of Anderson when he was 9-years-old was put up on the screen.

And it was an extremely strange photo.

You could see the confusion on Cooper’s face as he stopped the News Anchor to find out why the photo had been used.
