Andy Cohen Clarifies Whether He Greeted Ryan Seacrest On New Year’s Eve: ‘He‘s Got A Bug Up About Me’

deadline.com:

Greetings-gate continues. After Ryan Seacrest said on Tuesday that Andy Cohen never acknowledged him on New Years Eve while both were broadcasting their live shows for ABC and CNN, Cohen used his Sirius XM show Wednesday to, um, set the record straight.

And his claim is …. he never saw Seacrest standing 10 feet or so away. His co-host Anderson Cooper did, which is why he apparently waved to the American Idol host and mouthed “have a good show.” At least, that’s what Seacrest claimed on Live!

with Kelly and Ryan Tuesday. “I didn’t see him,” said Cohen on Andy Cohen Live. “I don’t even know what I, I didn’t see Anderson [Cooper] turn around and wave.

Usually what Anderson will do, and I should, I should call him back and ask him about this, frankly. But I think he’ll yell at me if I do… usually if he’s waving at Ryan, he’ll say to me, ‘Hey, there’s Ryan.’ You know what I mean?
