Anderson Cooper Staying Put in Prime-time News


88195879 The silver fox of a newscaster Anderson Cooper has been known to fill in for Regis Philbin occasionally on the Live! With Regis and Kelly show. But Cooper told People magazine there's no plan for a permanent placement on the morning chat fest, The 360 host cleared up any misconceptions that he may be replacing Philbin. "Regis is the king," Cooper cooed. "He's not going anywhere!"
"It's completely made up. I have no idea where it came from," Cooper said of the rumor. "Regis is not retiring, and I'm very happy with what I'm doing. I occasionally fill in for Regis, which is maybe how this came about. I love filling in for him," Cooper added. "I love working with Kelly Ripa. … It's nice to exercise different muscles."

For your regular dose of Cooper's sterling screen presence, stick to CNN.
