Giggling Together

Wednesday August 24, 2011

ANDERSON Cooper is happy to make fun of himself!

The CNN star — who recently had an explosive on-air giggle fit, which went viral online — admits he’s always been something of a giggler.

“I’ve always giggled like a 13-year-old girl at a Justin Bieber meet and greet,” he said.

“There’s nothing I can do about it but I’ve never not been able to stop.”

Cooper claimed he had no idea anyone would catch onto, or care about, his on-air chuckles.

“I went to bed telling myself, ‘I doubt anyone will notice the giggle fit.’ I woke up and in the elevator the first thing my building super said to me was, ‘What’s wrong with your laugh?’

“It could be worse: I could have a viral video in which I throw up on a guest or drunkenly eat a hamburger on a bathroom floor,” he continued. “Not that I’ve ever done either of those things. Not yet at least.”

Recent reports claimed Cooper’s mom wants him to marry his boyfriend!

Sources say Gloria Vanderbelt is desperate for the CNN journalist to settle down with club owner Benjamin Maisini so she can get another grandchild, according to American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“Anderson and Ben are in love, but they were on the verge of breaking up,” a source said.

“Between Anderson’s dangerous work assignments and Ben’s crazy hours at the club, the guys reached an impasse.

“At her age, Gloria is desperate to see her son settle down and make a family. So she got right in the middle of things, and reminded each of them how lucky they are to have found love and to stop being so demanding.

“Then Ben said his real worry is that Anderson’s job keeps him in danger. Pretty soon they got a decent dialogue going and the breakup was averted.”
