CNN's Anderson Cooper on Wii: "Whyyyyyyyy-iiiiii??"

charlequinI think it's really said:
really[/i] sad that kbear is trying to spin this as some sort of fanboy vindication or something when it's pretty clear that what happened is the guy knows nothing about videogames and thought the lame attempt at product placement was, in fact, lame.

What's with singling me out when half the thread had the same reaction? You Wii fans are way too defensive.
 
Failed product placement!

I thought it was funny. Im not against the non game movement but I cant bring myself to take Wii Fit seriously. I would be like "Is this a workout?" too, coming from someone who goes to the gym religiously.

The Silver Fox (his tabloid nickname) is hot! There's something daddy-like about him. I'd do him... yeah.

Anderson Cooper goes to my gym... thought I'd share. <3 <3


So does his early-twenty-something latin top bf.

wait, he really is gay?
Not that there's anything wrong with that
 
Yes, he's really, really gay.

The gym's the David Barton on 7th & 23rd & in Chelsea. Alexander McQueen and his twenty-something ex-porn-actor top bf go there too actually.

My best friend happens to know Cooper's former trainer, and he had told me Cooper fancies very young men, very young. I guess you're just confirming what he told me.
 
I know jarrod's telling the truth about the gym, because he mentioned Cooper's bf as latin, and we all know he doesn't go for the white guys.

Plus, he totally seems like a Chelseaboy.

But Alexander McQueen has an ex-porn-star bf? I thought that was Marc Jacobs?

Well, they did show it on Ellen, too - so Nintendo is targetting the gays. I mean, why not target people who work out already?

Because I somehow suspect that for a person who is used to multi-thousand dollar exercise machines with expensive personal trainers, a little white wobbly board is probably not going to seem that appealing as a way of exercising.

And Anderson is a bottom? Man I totally would not have though that.
That's hot.
 
RE: Brian Williams

That was just a guess by me there from a rumor / article I read about "a famous national news anchor has a revolving door open for other men" and the only one that made sense was Williams. Gay-Gaf, does your gaydar detect anything there?

ACKKK! I meant Marc Jacobs. :/

I'm quitting the gym at the end of the month though, moving to Williamsburg (help me!).

Im in this camp too. I dont really think it targets gay people per se.

This thread has totally turned into a gay celebrity gossip thread. So, where's Nick?
Click to expand...

he is posting in other threads flaunting himself being gay making sure we all know he's gay, because after all, we can't tell by his username colors.

well yeah, he doesnt visit the gaming side. It would be too un-gay for him!

j/k nick, if you're watching!
 
Step sucks... they could have at least put it on hula hoop for him... everyone knows how to hula hoop.

Eh. I have free access to one average and one fantastic University gym, as well as a set of weights and a bench right in my living room closet. Doesn't make Wii Fit any less attractive.

Just thought it was odd how he name-dropped me for laughing at the video when half the thread had the same reaction. Bizarre..
 
I got interviewed by Anderson Cooper (or someone at Ch1) back during the Haitian protests here in Miami. They picked a handful of us honors kids to share our thoughts. I thought I made a good point, but I had a zit on my chin that made the shot totally unusable anyway. At least, that's the excuse I've been using the last 15 years or so. :lol Yeah, it's crazy to think that he started off doing high-school news stories. PEACE.

I don't know this for a fact, but Alexander McQueen totally has to be living in LDN.

God, I would slit my throat if I were forced to live in Williamsburg.

It's really worth wading through hipsters for this apartment... pretty ready to leave Chelsea anyway, the constant cruisers and living in a 300 square foot studio get old fast.

people really cruise in such a manner? Man, I have been living in the wrong part of gay new york. not to say I would do anything unsafe, but it would still be fun to see for a bit.

To be fair, I probably wouldn't mind if I wasn't married.

As is though, walking down 8th Ave is like running the gauntlet. And it's worse in the gym actually... avoid the steamroom at all costs!

Is 8th ave as bad as San Francisco used to be (and might still be) in the past? I mean, do people just hook up out of nowhere? I have tried to stay away from that scene in NY but I have always wondered if it existed.

AC is crazy, step aerobics are the best.

I think he just didn't want to "make a fool of himself" and was caught off guard. had he been notified of the segment and/or been doing a segment on Wii fit he would have had no problem playing it.
 
Wii Fit is awful so it does my heart good to see AC all weirded out by it.

Still, it just seemed he was just disinterested in this portion of his show rather than legitimately disliking the product
