Anthony Anderson was one of the two actors who reprised his role in the revival of Law & Order on NBC. However, after one season, Deadline says that he is moving on from the show, and will not be back in the Fall.
However, the actor will still be on television sets. Anderson and his mom are doing a travel series for E!. He just won’t go away.
Anderson Cooper had some breaking news to announce on his show yesterday. It wasn’t about politics or international affairs. He wanted to let the world know that he recently welcomed his second son, Sebastian Luke Maisani-Cooper, via surrogate. He also took time to thank that surrogate and her family for giving her baby life and love until the day he was born.
Cooper also revealed that he is sharing this baby with his best friend and former partner, Benjamin Maisani. Not only that, but Maisani is also in the process of adopting Cooper’s eldest son Wyatt, 21 months.
Wyatt is loving being a big brother to Luke. The toddler calls him that because he can’t quite say Sebastian just yet. Give him a few more years because that is not an easy name for kids to say.
Congrats to the three men on the fourth man in their family!
We know that Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper are very close. So close that in this photo Wyatt Cooper, who just turned one, is dressed like his uncle Andy. That causes me to have so many questions that I shouldn’t have. Do you have them too?
Anderson Cooper is hosting Jeopardy this week, and he already has a fan. That fan is his 11-month-old son.
“Wyatt has never seen me on tv before, and he likely won’t for a long while, but apparently he caught a bit of me on @Jeopardy,” he wrote. “It was a dream come true to be guest hosting, and to pay tribute to #AlexTrebek and raise money for @hashaiti.”
Now, can we talk about how cute it is that the toddler is watching his dad on TV like that? I can’t say I blame his dad for not wanting his son to watch him on CNN. The longer kids can go without knowing about hard news, the happier they will be.
Back in November, we sadly lost Alex Trebek to cancer. Even though he is no longer with us, the game show must go on. Therefore, Jeopardy is using guest hosts like Ken Jennings. He was the first one to get the job. Now, we know who will be the next after Katie Couric, Aaron Rodgers, Bill Whitaker, and Mayim Bialik. Those lucky four are Dr. Mehmet Oz, Anderson Cooper, Savannah Guthrie, and Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
There is an added benefit for them doing the show. The winnings of each episode they host will be matched and given to a charity of the celebrity’s choice.
This an interesting group of hosts, but I am still petitioning for Neil deGrasse Tyson to be a fill-in. He is knowledgeable, likable, and a cool nerd. He’d be perfect for the job! Another fun guest host would be Wolf Blitzer. He was so awful when he played the game; I’d love to see him fail as a host too.
