Is Anderson Cooper Gay?
Just this weekend, I was trying to tell a friend of mine, that not only was Anderson Cooper gay, but has albeit indirectly, admitted it… she REFUSED to believe me … well, OK then … for her benefit, and now all yours:
The inadvertent self-outing speaks for itself. As an added bonus, I include this “cute” fan-boy dedication [and apologies to any Elvis Costello fans] to the CIA-plant, child-of-the-ruling-class, brown-shirt, ass-kissing, village-people idolizing, boy-wonder extraordinaire…
*Personally, I couldn’t care less about his lifestyle choices. However, when you’re on the television lying and deceiving the American public about things that really matter (i.e., the actions of traitors and foreign agents within their own government), please don’t also paint this false image of yourself along with it.
AFTERWORD [12/07/07]: Seeing that for some reason, this has now become, by far, my most popular blog entry, I feel that I should add an explanation to some of the items I wrote.
- I can only surmise that the reason for this blog’s popularity is that a lot of men out there think that Anderson is “hot.” To you, I will say the same thing I said to my little nieces one summer when they had a crush on Leonardo DiCaprio, and someone kidded them that he was gay. [And no, I don't know the answer to that one.] “What difference does it make to you personally?” and “No. He’s not going to call you!”
- Yes, he is a CIA plant. Read about it. There are probably many many others throughout the media (e.g., the guy from Daily Kos comes to mind). Research “Operation Mockingbird” and of how the CIA has boasted about the success of that operation and how easily they’ve been able to manipulate and control the information flow since.
- The “brown-shirt” reference is an allusion to Hitler’s “Brown Shirts” who helped put him into power. Coincidentally, many of them were homosexuals, and the generally agreed upon reason for that is that they were therefore “compromisable” (i.e., subject to blackmail). As expected, and as has always happened historically, these people are the first to go when the regime they helped put in power takes over (because they know too much). Read about the “Night of the Long Knives.” Finally, to any “insiders” reading this: What do you think is going to happen to you?
- As for the other adjectives; everyone knows he is a Vanderbilt, though less well-known is that he is also the heir to the shady Astor fortune. Whether he is actually a fan of the Village People is beyond me. I just wanted to add something something semi-ridiculous and semi-inflammatory, and “pillow-biting” would have probably offended my gay friends.

AFTERWORD [04/03/08]: Just in case there are people out there who still don’t want to believe the obvious, you may want to watch the last minute of the second video in “Who’s Your Daddy?“
I don’t think he cares how he’s perceived one way or the other. By now, most people know he’s gay and it’s not like he beards and dates women, he never does. He probably expects people to put two and two together and figure it out for themselves. A desirable 40 year old man who has NEVER been linked to any woman? C’mon people.
What did he say in that second video. I couldn’t make it out at the end.
At the end, 2ndAm, he says: “CLEARLY doesn’t have anything to be nervous about. [chuckles] Erica, thanks.”
Clearly it does not matter one way or the other what Anderson does or does not do in his private life. It does not have any effect on his journalism as he stated. He is a scribe with a private life that he prefers to keep private.
People are judged on wether they are good teachers, journalists, physicians etc. based on performance on the job, not what they do at home in their private domain. I like Anderson’s journalism, I am unconcerned with his home life.
Gwen, I think I expressed a similar sentiment. However, his “journalism” is the main issue, if you consider being a CIA mouth-piece as journalism. Anyone who’s seen The Good Shepperd couldn’t help but notice the homosexual undertones which went hand in hand with the agency.
