Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper Sex Rumors Revealed: Bravo Host Tells Amber Rose the Truth

Are they or aren't they? The question has been on the minds of Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper fans alike for years. Despite vacations together, public appearances and rumors that the two were having sex, Cohen used a question from Amber Rose on his Bravo talk show Watch What Happens Live to deny the gossip outright.

According to Huffington Post, Rose point-blank asked Cohen, "Are you and Anderson Cooper f*cking?"

Seemingly taken aback by the query despite intense public speculation, Cohen responded, "No. We've never done a thing. We've never even kissed. We were set up on a blind date over 20 years ago in the early 90's and it never took."

Cohen went on to explain that despite being very interested in Cooper at the outset of their relationship, the feeling was not reciprocated.

"We spoke on the phone once," Cohen told Rose, "I thought the call went great but he said he could picture me wildly gesticulating and it turned him off. So we never went out but we became great friends ... never seen him naked or anything."

Cohen's remarks should put the rumor mill to bed, at least for a bit. As E! Online reports, Cooper has been very publicly committed to long-term boyfriend and gay dive bar owner Benjamin Maisani for years. The couple are assumed to be cohabitating in Cooper's renovated Greenwich Village firehouse in New York City.

Cohen, on the other hand, is still presumably on the market -- and isn't too shy to talk about it. Earlier this year on his show, the Most Talkative author confirmed past sexual relations with now-married N*Sync member Lance Bass. Both Bass and Cohen have since downplayed the tryst and later specified that there was no intercourse involved -- à la Bill Clinton.

Gossip reports previously linked Cohen to prefessional hockey player Sean Avery, but the two claim to only be friends due to Avery's heterosexuality.
