Anderson Cooper’s stalker shows up at his apartment with 6 bags to move in

jtm-018337.jpg

I love stories of celebrity stalkers. They make you feel a little bit saner by comparison. So you spent three hours googling that guy you have a crush on. At least you didn’t send him six vials of your fingernail clippings. But I’m guessing celebrities don’t get quite the same level of comfort that their stalkers give me. And to be fair, they run the gamut from relatively benign to totally flipping crazy to murderous. On Friday Anderson Cooper filled in for Regis on “Live with Regis & Kelly.” In the opening banter, Anderson mentioned that he was renovating his apartment and had just gotten a call from the contractor. Apparently a woman who has been stalking him for over two years had just shown up at his apartment – with 6 bags in tow. She told the contractor that she was moving in. And was not joking.

Anderson is really generous in his description of the crazy lady. “I don’t know if stalking is the right word exactly… but emailing me aggressively for the last two years.” Talk about diplomacy. Most people would say something like, “Look there is this mentally deranged whack job who’s batshit crazy and stalking me.” The worst thing he said was, “So that was kind of creepy.” He also mentioned that he had no idea what his stalker looks like. Something tells me I should probably spend less time chilling around Columbus Circle hoping to run into Anderson Cooper for the next few weeks.

  2. ROTFL!! I love Anderson Cooper! I wanna marry him right away and get his children. He is THE perfect man… wait… that sounds pretty crazy… but… pfew… not as crazy as trying to move in with him just like that. LOL :lol: That story was awesome! You just have to love that guy!!

    And JayBird, once more: Kudos!! And I am rather glad I am not the only one trying to fetch a glimpse of him. ;)

  3. Guys, there are more important things happening than this in the world: Charlton Heston died, why haven’t you posted about that yet?!

  4. while charlton heston was certainly an emminent actor and worth eulogizing, it’s pretty silly to try and make us feel guilty for drooling over coop. drooling over coop doesn’t stop just because something else happened in the news.

  5. I would rather look at pics of Anderson ANY day of the year than look at pics of Charlton. He’s dead, he was right wing, he ran the NRA for a minute…ok, case covered, back to Anderson…CB Rules!

  6. I wasn’t trying to make anyone feel guilty at all for “drooling over Coop”. I was just trying to get someone at CB to report an event that I deem important and yes, maybe more important than this bit of news. Repeat: that I deem more important.

  7. Anderson Cooper makes Kelly Ripa look like an idiot. She’s always been cute and perky but when you sit her alongside a “real” newsperson, she comes off like a giggly high schooler painfully trying to keep up. Not good.

  8. It’s not really difficult to make Kelly Ripa look like an idiot…it’s pretty ingrained in her, seeing as how she IS one. Screechy, narcissistic, insecure, all about ME, etc.

    Anderson is a doll; smart and snarky. It would scare the hell out of me if someone just showed up to move in. Wouldn’t it freak you to know that someone knew where you lived well enough to do that? Yikes.

    For all the privilege being a celeb entails it sure as hell is freaky the downside they have to tolerate.

  9. Charlton Heston? Blech.

    Anderson’s great and I hope his stalker(s) don’t go any further than they have already.

  12. It’s not just celebrities who are being
    stalked. There are people out there like
    you and me being stalked every day.

    Stalking has been labeled a male crime.
    With over 40% of women over the age of
    25 not being married, this crime is a growing
    statistic amongst women.

    This isn’t a joke, this the real deal that’s evening
    taking place with teenage girls. So if this is
    a re-hash, it’s something that needs to be
    addressed.

    Female stalkers are doing it to establish intimacy
    and with over 40% of women over 25 years of age
    being unmarried, can’t you imagine how many other
    stalking cases that go unheard of?

    You have to be John Cusack, Michael Douglas,
    George Michael to list few of the men who have
    been stalked by women, to capture the attention
    of the media.

    How about a Chris, Terry, Eric or a Brian? The
    guy just around the corner.

    charlton heston was hot when he was young. as annoying as his politics were, he was most definitely a hollywood legend. RIP old man…

  18. Lol, this story is so funny. Just made me think of that character Libraesque- I hope that is the spelling- who stalks celebrities on the internet.

    Poor women, alot must be going on upstairs.

  19. why stalk a gay man? its not like you can get anything out of it unless you are male. maybe she is like a claymate? living the fantasy that her idol is hetro?

  20. Not quite. Anderson is open and freely admits who he is. I find Clay Aiken detestable because he feeds off his naive and misinformed fans. AND is a jerk about it all. The Coop has class.

  21. Re Anna - I’m sure that the CB writers are writing up a full cover on Charlton Heston’s death - and are waiting to have the full story before posting. Their measured approach may be seen in the coverage of Heath Ledger for example.

    I have noticed however, that they rarely have updates on a Sunday, which is why it’s not here. Probably something to do with kids and significant others needing attention.

    Greedy beggars - don’t they know we needs our gossip!!!! ;-)

  24. I have a little son and a husband, but yesterday I was busy doing my taxes and my husband took my son out to help me out. I do try to take most Sundays off for my family though. I wanted to put some time into reporting Heston’s death and do his life some justice.

    Of course we all know, so what? He talks about getting children. Biologically he needs me for it. ;)

  29. Charleton Heston was a legitimate civil rights activist as well as blockbuster movie king in his day. Dying during the weekend of the anniversary of the assassination of Dr. King is a significant coincidence.

    I’m saddened at the lack of respect towards Mr. Heston. There was more to him than just ‘president of the NRA’; and there was a reason why he was for the NRA as well.

    We shouldn’t forget the past just because we’re bored by it. We shouldn’t fear the past just because we’re ignorant of it, either.

    RIP Mr. Heston

  30. As for Cooper and his stalker, this story doesn’t make sense. Anyone with a smidgen of internet expertise can trace anyone anywhere — and Cooper has the money to trace to the microscopic level.

    She’s been emailing him for years? Sounds like the ‘crazy’ has been encouraged. Anyone else think this could possibly be a way of stealth bearding for a gay celebrity male? Because, again, this story doesn’t make sense.

  31. No, I sure don’t think that. And I seriously doubt that Anderson encouraged any of it

  32. Why would he need a “stealth beard’ ? That makes no sense. He’s about as out as you can be and hooking up with Carson Kressley made it a smooth shave. I’d happily be his BFF in a heart beat.

  33. Stalkers don’t give a flying hoot what your sexual orientation or marital status is. So the idea that this stalker is a “beard” to make him seem more straight is incredibly laughable.

  35. What possible good reason is there to defend the NRA? NONE! He might have been in civil rights marches years ago but it was just a photo op as with so many celebs. He’s been a racist, right wing nut for many MORE years! Has anyone “pried the gun” from his hand yet?

  36. I didn’t realize how funny Anderson Cooper was until I watched him while he was guest hosting on Regis and Kelly. He’s quite witty and charming, especially making light of his stalker situation. Did you see how Kelly was totally flirting with him. I wonder how Mark feels about that?!

  39. I think stalkers are the biggest fans of celebrities. They get as much recognition as the celebrities. They are forever linked to a celebrity of their choice by a deranged event.

  40. Anderson was subbing in for Regis again. Talk about flirting. I think Kelly genuinely wants him. This wasn’t just comedic flirting. If Mr. Consuelos slips us she’s on Cooper’s knob.
