Anderson Cooper Laughs Off Seth Meyer's Barbs at White House Correspondents Dinner
2:08 AM 5/1/2011 by Gregg Kilday
Comedian had joked about the journalist's tight t-shirts.
CNN’s Anderson Cooper didn’t take offense at the barbs that Saturday Night Live writer Seth Meyers directed at him at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner held Saturday night in Washington, D.C.
While Donald Trump didn’t crack a smile during the steady drumbeat of jokes Meyers aimed at him -- and he could be seen by the CSpan cameras beating a hasty exit as soon as the dinner ended -- Cooper took the ribbing in stride.
After the dinner, Cooper tweeted, “I’m a huge @sethmeyers21 fan. Its an honor to be mocked by him.”
In a riff on various members of the media, Meyers -- who has parodied Cooper before on Saturday Night Live -- made fun of Cooper’s penchant for tight t-shirts.
“You can always tell how much danger Anderson Cooper is in by how tight his clothing is,” Meyers began. “If he’s in a bulky, yellow slicker, then it’s a hurricane that’s still off shore. If he’s in a khaki vest, he’s maybe in the Green Zone in Baghdad. But if he’s in a child-size white t-shirt, bullets are flying, he’s getting punched, he’s pulling kittens out of the rubble.”
Then came the punch line: “So what I’m saying is, if you ever see Anderson Cooper with his shirt off, turn off your television and run.”
Later on Twitter, Meyers responded to Cooper’s tweet of approval, by saying, “I’m a fan in return. Thanks for being a good sport.”
In a separate tweet, the comedian also said, “Enjoyed WHC dinner immensely. Anxiously awaiting Trump’s rebuttal.”
If Anderson Cooper takes off his shirt, the last thing I would do would not be turning the TV off...!!! Are you kidding? I have been waiting for that moment for years.

Apparently not everyone at Justin Bieber's concert in Sydney, Australia had Bieber fever.

What just happened? Some of Justin's stunned fans took to the internet to complain about the egg incident
Footage of the incident showed two eggs landing within a metre of the Canadian superstar.
Then four more eggs appeared to fall from directly above the singer, prompting some internet users to question if the incident was all a set-up.
According Australia's Herald Sun, Justin didn't miss a beat during the egg incident.
He continued performing as a helper quickly cleaned up the mess.
The egg attack outraged many Biebers fans who quickly took to the internet.
One web user named Taylor wrote on Thejustinbiebershrine.com: 'I was soo angry when I saw this, I hate whoever did this. Why bother?'
Another fan took to Twitter a warning: 'Dear person who threw eggs at @justinbieber in Sydney, you now have over #9millionbeliebers after you, be afraid! We go harder than hard!'

Mocking: Katy Perry sang an acoustic and tuneless version of Rebecca Black's Friday on stage in Melbourne last night
There are probably a lot of teenage girls who would be thrilled to bits if Katy Perry decided to sing one of their songs during her concert.
But not Rebecca Black, who will no doubt be feeling a little disappointed with the Firework star's 'tribute' to her.
Perry poked fun at the teenager when she performed her song 'Friday' at her gig in Melbourne yesterday.
You know the words: With a sarcastic look on her face, Katy led the audience into a rendition of the chorus
And Katy decided the only way to sing it was out of tune, mocking the fact that the 13-year-old used auto-tuning on her vocals.
As she started an acoustic set during the gig, Katy, 25, with a mocking wide-eyed look on her face, declared to the crowd: 'So I can't play the flute. But that's ok. Because everything magical happens on a Friday.'
She received loud cheers from the audience inside the Rod Laver Arena, with one, who was recording the performance, declaring: 'No way'.
Big Down Under: Rebecca Black, seen here arriving at LAX airport yesterday, had 15,000 Melbourne fans singing her song
Rebecca Black, who comes from California, shot to fame earlier this year after heavily auto-tuned video of Friday went viral.
But unfortunately for the teen, it attracted a barrage of criticism and even death threats after her video was viewed by more than 110 million times on YouTube.
And Black admitted she was shaken by the vicious comments she received online.
Speaking on Good Morning America last month, she said: 'When I first saw all these nasty comments I did cry. I felt like this was my fault and I shouldn't have done this and this is all because of me. Now I don't feel that way.'
