Anderson Cooper Recalls Meeting Seth Meyers At The 'Gayest Gym' Ever

Oh, Anderson

Oh, Anderson.

The CNN host stopped by "Late Night With Seth Meyers" on Monday night, and revealed that he used to think Meyers was gay. They went to the same gym and "it was pretty much the gayest gym on the planet,” Cooper recalled, “And I assumed you were gay, ’cause… there weren’t a lot of other reasons to be there."

Meyers joked that he thought the gym was straight because this was before the CNN host officially came out in 2012. "Yea right," Cooper scoffed.

He said that he first talked to Meyers — who is married to lawyer Alexi Ashe — at the gym after seeing the actor imitate him on "Saturday Night Live" and being "thrilled" by the skit.

The whole exchange made us want to be a member of Cooper's gym so that we too could laugh, joke and share in the fun times.

Meyers also recalled, "I remember I talked to you one time, you were on the treadmill... I looked and you were running at like the fastest speed and you were just like, 'Hey, how's it going?' You were so calm. I was like more winded from making my way across the gym to you."
