The lyrics from Taylor Swift‘s song, “Wood,” from her latest album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” made Anderson Cooper, the well-known CNN host, feel quite shy during a live broadcast. The notable journalist was co-hosting the “New Year’s Eve Live” broadcast alongside Andy Cohen. A clip from the live has now gone viral. In the video, Cooper could be seen breaking into uncontrollable giggles and laughter while reading the lyrics of “Wood.”
Anderson Cooper does ‘dramatic reading’ of Taylor Swift’s ‘Wood’
Anderson Cooper, the notable CNN host, recently performed a “dramatic reading” of Taylor Swift’s song, “Wood,” which appears to make several references to the anatomy of Travis Kelce, her fiancé. While co-hosting the “New Year’s Eve Live” broadcast with Andy Cohen, the journalist began reading aloud a portion of the singer-songwriter’s song lyrics.
The portion of Taylor Swift’s “Wood” song lyrics read by Anderson Cooper included, “Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me and opened my eyes.” As the CNN host began reading these lines, he appeared visibly shy. He paused to grasp what he was reading. In the meantime, his co-host, Andy Cohen, then told him to “Just keep going.” After that, the host continued, “Redwood tree, it ain’t hard to see / His love was the key that opened my thighs.”
As soon as Anderson Cooper read the next set of lyrics, “Girls, I don’t need to catch the bouquet,” he could no longer control his laugh and broke into giggles and laughter. The CNN host began to read the following line, “To know a hard rock is on the way,” but could not finish it as he burst out laughing from shyness. Meanwhile, his co-host, Andy Cohen, stood right beside him, smiling but holding his laugh, making the moment even funnier. “Okay, I get it,” expressed Anderson Cooper, after taking a little break from his laugh.
