Anderson Cooper Admits his Hysterical Laughter on Gerard Depardieu Segment, “Embarrassing” [VIDEO]
Viewers React to Anderson Cooper’s Hysterical Giggle Over Gerard Depardieu Peeing Segment
Just how the viewers love CNN’s Anderson Cooper even more after his uncontrollable laughter in “The Ridiculist” segment featuring actor, Gerard Depardieu.
The popular CNN news reporter and anchor has admitted feeling embarrassed after his hysterical laughter while delivering a pun-filled news item about Gerard Depardieu’s peeing incident on a plane.
The clip has become a web sensation after it aired on CNN showing Cooper and his failure to control his giggle-turned- hysterical-laughter as he was reading the lines.
Watching the video, it was clear that the news anchor was caught on tape saying (while he was trying to compose himself) that this clip would certainly make it on YouTube. And it did. And he thinks that the laughter is ‘embarassing’.
“I giggle everytime I try to read through it. Hope I don't mess this up,” Cooper tweeted after the incident, which he himself, noted The Hollywood Reporter could not have known that it would draw that massive amount of attention when it hits the web.
“It’s embarrassing, but glad you laughed as well,” Cooper was quoted as tweeting to one of his followers. “It's a goofy laugh, but I'm stuck with it,” he added.
Cooper may think it was embarrassing. But most of the viewers adored him for his laughter, saying, “he was human after all”.
Here are some of the viewers’ thoughts on Cooper’s “Ridiculist” segment, according to The Hollywood Reporter:
Maureen Soricelli: “You cheered up a great many of us today, and you are almost as good as the laughing baby on YouTube.”
Karen L Wheeler: “Laughter is the best medicine right? Anytime I need a laugh, I can watch that.”
Teri Cerar: “it was so funny. We've all had those embarasing silly moments. Just not on camera.”
Lowell Miller: “Just proves you're human. Your reports from Africa made us cry and last night made us laugh. We needed it. Thank you.”
