While Andy Cohen appreciates that being added to Hollywood’s legendary Walk of Fame on Feb. 4 is certainly a major milestone in the increasingly multi-faceted career of the Bravo reality television…
reality television producer and host, he says from the moment he began working in media he felt like a shining star.
Cohen, too, rarely shies away from his own on-air messiness; following a recent tipsy, ungracious shade-tossing at competitors during his annual New Year’s Eve broadcast on CNN with pal Anderson Cooper, his self-aware response only appears, typically, to have even further endeared him to his audience.
Cohen’s ascendance blossomed when Trio, where he won his first Peabody Award for producing the documentary “The N-Word,”was absorbed into Bravo. His savvy producing imprint was soon on much of the network’s most-loved programming. “I was really excited to be given the opportunity,” he says, though he proceeded with caution. “One of the smartest things that I’ve done in my career was that I didn’t go all in on it too quickly. I did not think that I was valuable to Bravo as a host until I was valuable to Bravo as a host, and that took a while. I was still in charge of programming, and then I dialed back my responsibilities to just being in charge of development,” he says.
“It’s the only live show in late night. Sometimes it’s awkward. Sometimes it’s amazing. Sometimes it’s messy. Sometimes it’s emotional. It’s most oftentimes silly, but it’s always an authentic experience, and I just think people crave authenticity.” While “Housewives” continues to thrive and with the recent two-season pickup for “WWHL” he’ll pursue an array of bucket-list names to make hoped-for appearances — Michelle Obama, Madonna and Diana Ross are among those on his wish list — Cohen’s building a thriving multimedia footprint.
