Anderson Cooper, 49, appeared on the Nov. 30 episode of Watch What Happens Live! with host Andy Cohen, 48, alongside the show’s other guest, Kelly Ripa, 46. In addition to talking about their careers and love lives, Andy invited each of their personal assistants to join the set for a fun and revealing game of “Truth or Drink!”

For those who may not be familiar with the tell-all game, Andy, Kelly, and Anderson’s assistants were given a series of questions about their boss, which they had to answer. The assistants had the opportunity to either reveal the details about their employers or politely decline and take a shot. And Andy didn’t waste any time getting the game going!
In the first round, the assistants were asked to answer which celebrity their boss can’t stand. Andy and Kelly’s assistants opted not to answer the question, which meant they had to drink (Kelly drank for her assistant because she’s pregnant). But Anderson’s main guy, Joey Pinatauro, decided he was up for the challenge. “I’m going to say Britney Spears,” he said.
Anderson quickly tried to interject, saying he had “nothing against Britney Spears,” but Joey elaborated on his answer. “We have a Christmas party and every time I try to put a song on one of the playlists, he doesn’t like Britney Spears,” Joey said. Anderson tried to think of a better response, but kind of mumbled through it. Luckily, the game moved along to the next question. SO funny!
After a couple of rounds, the group stumbled on another tough one: “One Celebrity Your Boss Refuses To Have On Their Show.” All of the assistants answered this time, but Joey’s answer was still the best by far. “Probably somebody like one of the Kardashians or something like that,” he said. As the camera turned back to Anderson, he made a puzzled face before laughing it off. We saw that!
We have to admit, that game was super fun — probably not for Anderson, but it was definitely a riot to watch! Also, we should give the CNN anchor the benefit of the doubt. Anderson and Britney actually collaborated together back in 2013, when the “Make Me” singer joined Anderson’s Anti-Bullying movement, The Bully Effect. As for the Kardashians, Anderson admitted to Andy during another game on WWL in 2012, that he would never have any member of the reality family on his TV show. So it looks like Joey was spot-on with that answer!
HollywoodLifers, do you think there’s any truth to Joey’s answers about Anderson?
