Andy Cohen unleashed a wild rant about outgoing New York City Mayor Eric Adams that left Anderson Cooper visibly cringing live on CNN.

Cohen and Cooper, who have been co-hosting CNN’s New Year’s Eve special for the past nine years, were putting away drinks for hours and bantering live during the network’s coverage of the celebrations in New York City.

Soon after the ball dropped in Times Square, Cohen, with a drink in his hand, said: ‘Watching the final moments of Mayor Adams’s chaotic…’

Before he could finish his thought, Cooper interrupted and said: ‘Oh no. I’m out.’

Cohen continued, ‘I just want to say…’ before Cooper interrupted him again. ‘Don’t,’ he said while attempting to walk out of frame.

But the camera panned out to keep the co-host in frame. ‘He got his pardons,’ Cohen continued with a slight slur, before Cooper said ‘I’m out’ once again.

‘I’m just saying, great, you got your pardons. Go off into the sunset,’ Cohen said. ‘We’ll fiddle with what we have, with what you’ve left us with.’

‘He can’t help himself,’ Cooper then said.
