Swimming: Phelps Races Hairless Coop in 60 Minute Swim-Off - Guess Who Wins?
Our fave silver-haired fox Anderson Cooper challenged GQ cover boy Michael Phelps to a swim-off during their 60 Minute interview last night. The result wasn't a surprise - I mean Phelps owns, like, 1000 gold medals - but what was a surprise was Coop's completely hairless body. But I guess living in Chelsea, NYC will do that to you.
Watch the full clip:

I think it's weird how the title says Phelps challenged Coop, but the article says Coop Challanges Phelps...

Cooper looked pretty fast actually!

The only reason they inaccurately titled this article was to garner more attention and readers - PlanetOut should be aware that libel suits can also be persued by Headlines alone - as this headline is completely untrue and the people who don't actually read the article or watch the video (roughly 70% of individuals just browse headlines) and only scim the title will believe it...

Wow, what a great piece I could never get tired of looking at Phelps or AC, they're both so down to earth.

is anderson, gay ?
Posted by: r2kin2 | December 02, 2008 at 06:16 PM
Yeah, I agree Anderson, flirted with Micheal pretty strongly. At least he has class, after all, Anderson is Gloria Vanderbilt's son...He looked great for a middle aged man, too bad he didn't wear a speedo!
Posted by: timothy | December 02, 2008 at 06:39 PM
If only there were some way I could suck Anderson Cooper's whole body at one time....Oh, baby! Always nice to see Michael Phelps' great physique, I just keep wishing he'd take some of that money and do something about the absolute horror show that comprises his entire head. Wow, that's some kinda homely!

"Don’t tell me you don’t want to talk about personal life when you wrote a book about your father’s death and your brother’s death. You can’t move this big mass of personal stuff out for public display, then people ask questions and you say, ‘Oh, no, I didn’t say there was going to be any questions.’ Don’t tell me you can’t talk about your personal life and then, when they send you overseas and you do a report that consists of your voice-over and pictures of you in a custom-made, blue-to-match-your-eyes bulletproof vest, looking somberly at these scenes of human devastation—like a tourist—and that’s your report. Your shtick is your personal life."
--Keith Olbermann on Closeted Anderson Cooper, 2007
I have to say Olbermann has a point. I've long felt that if a celebrity makes appearances with "dates" or, say, write books that spill all the personal beans except for whom they spoon with at night, then they are being a hypocrite and I can't get too outraged when they get questioned about the part of their personal life that for some reason isn't as relevant as the rest.
Olberman doesn't deny who he is - he loves cooch and gets as much as possible. He's also very sharp and champions more gay issues than Cooper has the balls to even acknowledge. You can bet your ass that if Olberman interviewd Thomas Roberts he wouldn't have whitewashed Thomas' homosexuality.
Personally, I'm bored with Anderson Cooper. I used to admire him (and I still do as a newsman). But as a person, I think he's a coward.
