Andy Cohen Says He Regrets Asking Oprah If She Slept With Women On ‘Watch What Happens Live’

Buy Me A Coffee

Andy Cohen is rolling out the red carpet of nostalgia as he looks back at 15 wild and wacky years of “Watch What Happens Live.”

In a new interview, the 56-year-old TV maestro reminisced about the roller coaster ride that is his career, while popping the champagne for the 15th birthday of his Bravo late-night circus.

Now, grab your popcorn because Andy spilled the tea on one of his โ€œfew regretsโ€ โ€“ and yes, it involves the queen herself, Oprah Winfrey. Buckle up.

Flashback to 2013: Oprah, a sprightly 70, graced the WWHL set. Andy, ever the cheeky devil, decided to dive straight into the deep end of the lady pond. No, really. He asked Oprah if sheโ€™s ever taken a dip in the lady pond. Translation: has she ever had a romantic rendezvous with another woman?

โ€œI really thought I was being classy, asking Oprah a โ€˜classicโ€™ WWHL question,โ€ Andy confessed to ET, probably while hiding under a table. โ€œBut yeah, thatโ€™s definitely a top regret.โ€

Oprah, in all her regal glory, didnโ€™t miss a beat. She looked Andy dead in the eye and said, โ€œNo, I have not. Thank you.โ€ And you could practically hear the crickets and Andyโ€™s internal screaming.

โ€œIt was such an honor having Oprah on the show,โ€ Andy mused. โ€œAnd then I go and ask her about lady ponds. Seriously, could I not just enjoy the moment?โ€

But hereโ€™s where it gets juicier. Post-interview, Oprah didnโ€™t unleash a tornado of side-eye or make Andy swim with the fishes. She was cool as a cucumber. However, Oprahโ€™s BFF, the ultimate confidante Gayle King, later spilled that Oprah was a bit flummoxed by Andyโ€™s lady pond lingo.

โ€œGayle told me Oprah didnโ€™t know what I meant by โ€˜the lady pond,โ€™โ€ Andy said, probably while doing the facepalm of the century. โ€œI thought I was clear, but hey, Iโ€™m just thrilled Oprah even showed up.โ€

Despite this hiccup, Andy declared that his tรชte-ร -tรชte with Oprah is still his โ€œfavorite episode.โ€ Because really, how can you top making the almighty Oprah Winfrey wonder if youโ€™re talking about swimming lessons or secret sapphic soirees?

So hereโ€™s to 15 years of Andy Cohen and his gloriously unpredictable show โ€“ may the lady ponds always be murky, the questions always be spicy, and the guests always be legendary.
