Anderson Cooper Finally, Finally Admits That He Likes Dick

Anderson being coy in his pool at his summer home.It's been a long time coming. In fact, it's been almost five years since Anderson Cooper and Jodie Foster were on the cover of OUT Magazine's 'Glass Closet' issue. But now, perhaps pressured by other celebrities and their subtle comings out, and by this recent Entertainment Weekly cover story that implicated him as a holdout as well, Anderson finally penned an email to Andrew Sullivan admiting, "The fact is, I'm gay." Also, he's super proud about it, and not ashamed, and his reasons for keeping it semi-hidden all this time were purely professional and blah blah blah. This both is and isn't a big deal. Yes, most of you already knew this (though a few of your straight gal pals probably wanted to given Andy the benefit of the doubt). But a lot of the country didn't, and now they will, and Anderson is a huge person in the news world at this point. Our first out major news anchor. DOn't expect him to go blabbing to OUT about whether he's a top or bottom or what his type is (but we're pretty sure he likes em dark/Latino and that he is a big bottom, but we digress).
