Oct. 30, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Anderson Cooper has been spotted with his boyfriend Benjamin Maisani in India, apparently to spend a vacation. It is common knowledge that the CNN reporter is gay, but he had never before been public with his personal life. No wonder, then, that the photographs taken of the two has cooked up quite a storm among the paparazzi.
It has been assumed that Cooper and his boyfriend Maisani are staying at an expensive heritage hotel at Jaipur in Rajasthan, India. Photos of the two were taken while they were lounging at the Rambagh Palace Hotel, where the two are staying. An inside source reported to the New York Post that on the first night of their arrival, the two had hit upon the romantic idea of filling the bathtub in Anderson’s room with bubbles and sprinkling it with rose petals. It is reported that they have boarded the hotel at a whopping three thousand and two hundred dollars per night. The hotel was rated the most sophisticated hotel in the world by the Conde Nast Magazine and is also one of the most expensive ones.
Maisani is the owner of a bar called Eastern Bloc in East Village. This is the second time he has been spotted with Anderson. The last time they were seen together was in June. They were spotted biking together. According to Anderson, he prefers not to talk about his personal life as he feels that it might harm his career. He stresses that as a reporter, it is imperative for him to mingle with all sorts of people and that exposed details of his personal life might ruin his chances.

There was no photo of them taken in India. Page 6 who started this whole rumor only said they were spotted there. Just so you know Page 6 is a gossip site that lies a lot about celebrities so you can’t take what they say too seriously. Neither can you believe the other sites that you obviously got your information from. BTW, that picture you have is them in NYC from June.

I sincerely hope that the
response “What Photo” was right. I really like Anderson but if the article is true it
cannot help coloring my interest in him.

Who Cares? Are there not a million more things worth discussing that Anderson Cooper’s alleged sexual preference? Besides, he is on tv. Everyone who is anyone on tv has rumors started. If this is true, nobody cares!

Despite all the remarks against the main conclusion, the preponderance of evidence still points to Anderson Cooper being gay.

“I really like Anderson but if the article is true it

What kind of person are you that the sexual orientation of your TV news anchor “colors your interest in him”? What difference does it make if he’s gay or straight? His sexuality won’t change the quality of the news he reports on. Still, it’s brave of you to wave your bigotry around like that. Most people wouldn’t have the courage to do something that stupid.

Bravo on your comment, Jason! I just hope that Rose person by “coloring my interest” meant - it bursted her curiousity and admiration of Anderson Cooper even more than before. :)

Who cares if he’s gay or straight! He’s very well liked, great at his job and for someone who’s on TV I think he still has a great head on his shoulders (compared to some others on TV) He’s private and very modest a trait that’s very hard to come by no matter who you are!……Appealing to the eyes as well!

It’s about time the public sees normal acting gay people. We’re not all flaming, woman acting guys. Most of my friends have normal mainstream and successful jobs. I hate it when the media shows crazy acting queens. It makes us look bad but most importantly it makes normal masculine guys too scared to come out.

why cant people just have an opinion. If someone thinks that his sexual orientation will change how they view him, then so be it. because u think differently doesnt mean that its right. Everyone wants christians to stop pushing their “religion” on everyone. Well how about other people stop pushing their views of sexual orientation on others and take comments at face value

@me:
I dunno, maybe because we are coming from a place of acceptance of all people, while Christians do the exact opposite by alienating and condemning people with different beliefs and sexual orientations. And to boot, why does religion have anything to do with this debate? This is about separating someone’s personal life with their (truly incredible in the case of Anderson) work. If it’s that hard for you to see how utterly dumb it is to put more emphasis on trivial aspects of how a person lives his life while ignoring the amazing body of work he has produced and offered to society, then I don’t know what else to say.

Anderson Cooper is a very nice looking guy and I believe him to be the best TV reporter of all time! If he is gay, straigh or bi, what is the difference in term of his job? I think it is no ones business what we do and with whom in bed! If he want to tell the world fine if not please repect him…

It doesn’t matter to me. I still love Anderson Cooper and he is very sexy.
