Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper have revealed their favorite moment from their CNN New Year's Eve broadcast - and for viewers, it probably comes as no surprise.
During a morning-after interview with The New York Times, the iconic duo spilled on their long night, including the segment that made Cooper totally 'lose it.'
This year, the pair hosted their eighth New Year's Eve segment together, which featured a variety of guests like DJ Diplo, actor Jon Hamm and comedian Whitney Cummings.
But when asked to pinpoint a specific moment from this year's broadcast that was their favorite, they both admitted it was when actor Ralph Fiennes joined them.
During his appearance, Fiennes recited a hilarious monologue of this year's viral 'very demure, very mindful' video made by TikTok star Jools Lebron.
As he recited the clip, Cooper could be seen standing in a fit of laughter next to Cohen.
'I knew Ralph Fiennes was going to be on, but I had no idea he was going to do the "demure" thing,' Cooper admitted to The New York Times.
'I just lost it, I thought it was so funny,' the journalist added.

The duo have been friends for decades now, since the early 1990s, and have remained close
Cohen was also tickled by Ralph, but also enjoyed spending time with his longtime friend.
'I loved Ralph, I obviously enjoyed my parents,' Cohen told the outlet.
'I have to say, the big thing that is so fun for me is just the interplay with Anderson,' he continued. 'I mean, I love making him laugh. I love him making me laugh.'
'I love us giving each other crap. And that started with him ripping on my dancing and then us making fun of my wax figure [at Madame Tussauds].'
However, although it's their eighth year hosting together, Cohen admitted to the outlet that he does get a bit 'edgy' before starting the broadcast.
'I was a little edgy before the show, and I have to say the tequila shot at the beginning of the show really evened me out,' Cohen admitted.

At first, their mutual friend tried to set them up on a date, but they quickly realized they would not make a great romantic pair.

'We had a phone call to set up the date, and I knew within 45 seconds I was never going on a date with Andy Cohen,' Cooper shared during a 2017 appearance on The Tonight Show.
'He violated my cardinal rule, which is he asked me about my mom [Gloria Vanderbilt] within the first minute of talking to me,' Cooper cracked about Cohen.
In response, the Watch What Happens Live host protested that he was 'excited' because he 'wanted to date the Vanderbilt boy.'
Famously, Cooper's mother is the late Gloria Vanderbilt.
However, although they never went out on that date, they've become great friends, even taking their talents on tour for a live show in 2017.
