There was no shortage of fun during Friday’s on-air festivities. At one point, Cohen and Coopertook shotsin honor ofBetty White, whodied at age 99just weeks before her 100th birthday.
“We’re going to raise our first shot of tequila in honor of Betty White!” Cohen said as he prepared the drinks for himself and his cohost, who had just finished calling the late actress “a lovely lady.”
“This is in honor of Betty White, a life well-lived. 99 years!” Cohen said before the pair toasted to her legacy.
Later in the evening, after several more drinks, Cohen took verbal shots at N.Y.C. Mayor Bill de Blasio, who left the role at the start of the new year. Cooper attempted to diffuse the situation to no avail.
“Watching Mayor de Blasio do his victory lap dance after four years of the crappiest term as the mayor of New York [City],” Cohen told the camera. As he spoke, Cooper attempted to interject with “don’t go on a rant” and “this is how you want to start the new year?”
But Cohen persisted. “The only thing Democrats and Republicans can agree on is what a horrible mayor he has been,” he said. “So, sayonara, sucka!”
A stunned Cooper stared at his cohost and twice uttered, “Wow.” A giggle could be heard from behind the camera.

Cohen continued: “2022! It’s a new year! ‘Cause guess what? I have a feeling I’m going to be standing right here next year, and you know who I’m not going to be looking at dancing as the city comes apart? You!”
In addition to his Twitter confession, Cohenclaimed he was overservedon Instagram in both a post and on his Story, noting that he still had a blast.
“I was a hair over-served last night, but man did I have fun! I hope you did too. Happy New Year everybody,” Cohen captioned his Instagram post, which featured several goofy shots of him and Cooper from throughout the night.
Cohen shared a similar message on his Story before answering the big question: What were they drinking?
The answer: De Nada tequila and Mujen shochu.
“I was a bit overserved last night,” he said in the clip. “I had so much fun though, and I hope you did too!”
