Andy Cohen may have prompted some explosive sentiments from Patti LuPone, but as he pointed out on “The Howard Stern Show,” he’s only ever gushed over her, himself. “I could make a four-hour montage of me licking Madonna’s a** on ‘Watch What Happens Live’ or on the radio,” he estimated.
That might not be an exaggeration. For starters, in a 2018 episode of Cohen’s SiriusXM show, Cohen laughed as Billy Eichner recounted the time he was so starstruck by her at one of his own Christmas parties that he could barely move (except for when he instructed Eichner to move so she could sit down). A few months later, in an episode of “WWHL,” Cohen revealed that he’d pushed Stephen Colbert out of his line of sight when he’d inadvertently blocked Madonna’s Met Gala performance. “And I don’t regret it, okay?” he joked of the incident.
Fast-forward to December 2023, when Madonna playfully lambasted him mid-concert, Cohen brought attention to his earlier comments of a montage, dedicating the second slide of his Instagram post to a collection of clips from “WWHL.” Well, there’s the evidence of him saying good things. However, something tells us that was a fun retort proving his innocence rather than a showreel meant to entice Madonna onto the show. After all, as he told Howard Stern, he’s past the point of trying to convince her.
