Anderson Cooper on Santa Controversy: ‘Don’t Even Know If I’m White Anymore’

By Jordan Chariton 

Anderson Cooper was in South Africa covering the death of Nelson Mandela last week when Megyn Kelly made her controversial comments about Santa’s race, so he weighed in on the debate on last night’s “Ridiculist.”

After revealing he failed in his quest to get answers directly from Santa, Cooper posed several questions.

“This whole debate is very confusing to me,” Cooper said. “What about the nine ladies dancing, the eight maids and milking…are they white? Suddenly I feel like I need to know: is Frosty the Snowman white? What about the little drummer boy? Frankly, I don’t even know if I’m white anymore.”

Cooper concluded by imploring Megyn Kelly:

“Help me Megyn Kelly, please explain what you meant…I just want my life back,” Cooper said. ”
