Andy Cohen says he 'regrets' asking THIS question to Oprah Winfrey > 자유게시판

Andy Cohen revealed that one of his few regrets in life involved his interview with Oprah Winfrey. 

The 56-year-old Bravo host admitted that he felt awkward about asking the billionaire media mogul, now 70, if she had ever slept with a woman during her 2013 appearance on Watch What Happens Live, per his interview with ET on Friday.

More specifically, Andy asked Oprah if she had ever 'taken a dip in the lady pond.'

'It meant so much to me that Oprah Winfrey did the show,' he recalled. 'It's gone brilliantly and I turn around and ask her if she's every had sex with a woman. I mean, couldn't I leave it alone?'

Cohen — who recently admitted he worries about getting 'canceled' — added: 'That's probably one of my few regrets.'

In a video clip shared by ET, the Color Purple star responded to Andy's question with a direct stare and a firm, 'No, I have not. Thank you.'

The Bravo boss went on to say that the interview was a 'huge moment' for both him and the talk show. 

'I'm such a fan of Oprah,' he added. 

According to Andy, Oprah remained 'super cool' and assured that 'it was not awkward' once the cameras stopped rolling. 

However, Oprah's friend Gayle King later informed him that the former talk show host might not have fully understood the question.

'Gayle King told me later that week that Oprah didn't know what I meant by "the lady pond,"' Andy recalled to the outlet.

'I thought I explained it pretty well there, but listen, I was so grateful that Oprah did the show and I still am. That remains, I think, my favorite episode.'

Andy, meanwhile, said he holds Patti LuPone in high regard as one of his favorite guests. 

'I mean, Patti LuPone has no F's to give so she is the perfect clubhouse guest,' he explained. 'She's been here many times.' 

Andy's comments come after he claimed that 'outrage culture' has changed the Real Housewives culture in recent years.

The Bravo boss — who has been named in a bombshell lawsuit against the network by RHONY alum Leah McSweeney  — said that since launching the franchise over 15 years ago, the creators have had to swiftly adapt to the evolving cultural landscape.

'Producing a show about politically incorrect women in 2024 is different than producing a show about politically incorrect women in 2009,' Andy told The Hollywood Reporter in May.

'We are living in an outrage culture now, and everyone has had to adapt to that,' he continued.

Andy added that viewers' 'sensitivity' has grown more acute, attributing this shift to the pervasive influence of social media.

'Sensitivities have changed over the years. Social media has a huge impact. There's not a lot of room for nuance these days,' he claimed.
