Andy Cohen Looks Back on the Question He Wishes He Never Asked Oprah
Kilian Melloy READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Andy Cohen looked back recently on his decade-and-a-half of "Watch What Happens Live" and zeroed in on an intimate question he posed to Oprah Winfrey in 2013 – one he wishes he hadn't asked.
Oprah's appearance on Cohen's show "was a huge moment," Cohen said in remarks to Entertainment Tonight, Page Six relayed. "I'm such a fan of Oprah," he went on to say.
So much so, that he couldn't keep himself from asking the queen of talk shows a slightly naughty question about her sex life (namely, whether she might have "taken a dip in the lady pond...").
"You ever been with a lady?" Cohen reiterated.
Oprah gave a tart response, though with a sweet demeanor, saying, "No, I have not, no. Thank you."
Ouch!
"Okay, that's probably one of my few regrets," Cohen reflected. "It meant so much to me that Oprah Winfrey did the show. It's gone brilliantly and I turn around and ask her if she's ever had sex with a woman. I mean, couldn't I leave it alone?"
Is he kidding? He's Andy Cohen, after all!
