AceShowbiz - Well, the beef between Andy Cohen and Kathy Griffin seemingly is seeing no end. After the comedienne accused the Bravo boss, who was previously announced to replace her as co-host on CNN's New Years Eve show, of offering her a cocaine on multiple occasions, Cohen took to his Twitter account to personally deny the allegation.
"I am completely stunned by this story," the "Watch What Happens Live" host tweeted on Saturday, October 28. "It is 100|percent| false and totally made up."
I am completely stunned by this story. It is 100% false and totally made up.

Bravo spokesperson also addressed the allegation in a statement to Naughty Gossip. "This is completely false and we're not going to credit it with any more attention," said the rep.
Griffin alleged that Cohen asked her if she wanted to do cocaine before appearing on "Watch What Happens Live". "Both times I did the show, right before we went live, Andy Cohen privately asked me in an office if I wanted to do blow," the 56-year-old alleged in a 17 minute-long YouTube video titled "Kathy Griffin: A Hell of a Story". "I've never had a drink in my life. You guys know I'm no prude but I'm kind of like a straightedge, I thought he was kidding the first time."
She continued, "I was hoping he was kidding, the second time I do the show, same thing. So once again we're alone in an office and he's like, 'Wanna do some coke?' And I'm thinking, 'He's serious!' Trust me, he's going to say he's kidding and everything, no. He was asking me to do cocaine with him, that made me very uncomfortable."
The actress went on calling Cohen a "miserable boss" during the time she worked on "My Life on the D-List", which aired on Bravo for six seasons. "The whole time I was working there, I didn't know how Andy Cohen wanted to be me," she said.
"I didn't know Andy Cohen was on the red carpet, trying to be funny and asking questions on BravoTV.com," she said. "I didn't know when they ended 'The D List' and I desperately wanted to do a talk show, Andy Cohen would be the first television executive in the history of television to give himself a talk show-which seems to get picked up every season."
It came after Griffin slammed Cohen as "misogynistic" in her tweet after he pretended not to know her in a recent video interview. "Even when it's on tape, there are doubters? He is NOT kidding w paps. Was my boss for 10 years. Treated me like a dog. Deeply misogynistic," Griffin wrote alongside the said video.
When asked if he talked to Griffin, whose co-hosting gig on CNN's New Years Eve show was canceled due to the infamous Donald Trump's severed-head photo, Cohen jokingly responded, "Who? Who? I don't know her."
