When did Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper’s bond grow?
New Year’s Eve Live hosts, Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper, gave a glimpse of their sweet friendship during a recent interview with Parade. Andy and Anderson have known each other since the 1960s; however, their friendship levelled up when they went to Brazil together, according to Anderson. Andy felt that their creative collaboration, which fans loved, brought them closer as friends. However, he began to view Anderson differently during the latter’s 40th birthday. After that, they frequently went on trips together in the 90s and got even closer. “We did gravitate towards each other on these trips,” Andy stated.
