I worked around him and can truly say that Gay was not his agenda. I literally saw breakdowns of audience targets and it was spread across so I do believe him.

The loafers, hmm. My jury's out on those. (Kind of want! Kind of hate!) But here's something one of his friends told me when I was writing about Cohen a while back: "His parents loved him." And that sounds ridiculous but actually it's sort of marvelously key to him. I think he believes the world is a good and kind place and that people are funny and nice, and dishiness and table-flipping is funny but not the sign that people are bad or actually badly deranged. I guess, in short, he is all Anne Frank about things. This is sort of refreshing in the age of the bitchy Internet commenter. It's a good thing!

Though I too wish he'd be a bit less executivey but, you know, whatever, he works for NBC Universal! I'd be uptight too.

Also I wish gay magazines were less gay, but that is asking too much.

"but the can't get enough of him, even though he says his network isn't gay and that he doesn't want the spot light."

Me talk pretty one day.

Andy Cohen is those two-tone loafers he's wearing. The worst.

@nicepony: Hideous! And you know that he considers himself a "tastemaker". In fact, there's probably a plaque that says that affixed to the bottom of his shaving mirror.

Andy Cohen is not the boss of me, and his network is gay.

'An enthusiastic, sophisticated, entertainment-based, aspirational view of' sucking dick is what makes me gay, in fact, Bravo.

The thing that annoys me most about Cohen -- and perhaps the reason why he should stay behind the camera -- is that he is wholly unforthcoming in interviews. He is so guarded, so TV executive-y, and so contrived, that every interview with him reads like a corporate press release from NBC Universal. He is incapable of revealing anything interesting and personal. In other words, he utterly lacks the quality that makes reality TV personalities so compelling.

Executive, reveal thyself!

He gives off a former-fat-kid vibe. And, nothing wrong with that. Doesn't seem like a bad guy. Just clearly exulting in the attention, pretending he didn't engineer it himself.
