Hold onto your seats, because things got spicy on Sunday night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live! Andy Cohen took things to a whole new level during a game of “Truth or Kink,” and let’s just say it’s not your average late-night talk show segment. But here’s where it gets controversial... Was it all in good fun, or did Cohen cross a line by encouraging physical play on live TV? You decide.
During the game, Cohen invited his guests—Real Housewives of Potomac star Angel Massie and Bitch Sesh podcast co-host Danielle Schneider—to ask him “sultry” questions. The catch? If they answered, they got to whip him with a, well, whip. Yes, you read that right. Cohen, ever the provocateur, seemed to be enjoying himself a little too much. After reading the rules, he quipped, “Wow, this is gonna be fun for me,” leaving no doubt about his enthusiasm for the unconventional prize.
With each question, Cohen would bend over, presenting himself for the whip. But here’s the twist: Massie and Schneider were way too gentle for his liking. “Not too hard. You can go harder,” he urged Massie after her first attempt. Schneider, meanwhile, took a moment to shout out to her daughter watching at home, adding a layer of awkwardness to the already bizarre scene. And this is the part most people miss... While Cohen was clearly egging them on, the dynamic raised questions about consent and boundaries—even in a playful setting.
Frustrated by their light touches, Cohen eventually called on Stranger Things: The First Shadow actor Burke Swanson, who was hanging out at the Bravo Clubhouse bar. “You come over! The next time, he’s gonna do it. And he’s gonna do it very hard,” Cohen instructed. Swanson delivered, leaving Cohen screeching in mock pain and curling up in his chair. “Ow! Ow! Oh, wow. Alright, let’s go to break,” he joked, clearly loving every second of it.
But here’s the real question... Did Cohen’s antics go too far, or was it just another example of his fearless approach to late-night TV? Some might argue it was all in the name of entertainment, while others could see it as a step too far. What do you think? Let’s spark a conversation in the comments—agree or disagree, we want to hear your take!
