If seeing Christmas decorations before Halloween stresses you out, you should probably stop reading this post.
Earlier this month, CNN announced that Bravo binch Andy Cohen would replace Kathy Griffin as Anderson Cooper’s co-host on the network’s annual New Year’s Eve special. CNN had fired Kathy from the gig following her whole decapitated Trump head photo scandal that you know about, I know about, we all know about it. Do I need to recap it? No? Cool. All you need to know for the purposes of the next 200 or so words is that Anderson distanced himself from Kathy and Kathy made fun of him for being kinda wack.
Well, things kept happening! On Friday, a TMZ paparazzo ran into Andy Cohen on his way out of an airport on Friday and asked him a bunch of questions, as a TMZ paparazzo is wont to do. Among those questions was “Have you, uh, talked to Kathy [Griffin] at all [about taking over as Anderson Cooper’s new co-host]? Did you run it by her first before accepting it?”
“Who? I don’t know her,” Andy said, an obvious reference to Mariah Carey’s gif’d to death though nevertheless iconic J.Lo snub.

Kathy saw this shit and got mad!
“Even when it’s on tape, there are doubters?” she tweeted in response on Friday morning. “He is NOT kidding w[ith] paps. Was my boss for 10 years. Treated me like a dog. Deeply misogynistic.”

I’d just like to remind everyone that it’s Oct. 27th, Halloween hasn’t even happened yet, why are we talking about New Year’s, and some people have war in their countries.
