Who Would Win in a Fight: Anderson Cooper vs. Tim Gunn
Posted by Dan July 5th, 2007 at 02:36pm In Who Would Win in a Fight
In the closest battle yet, it appears that Heroes’ Angela Petrelli (looking very Cruella in the picture I found) has whupped Arrested Development’s Lucille Bluth. I agree with the decision, even though I have a deeper fondness for AD than Heroes. Lucille just doesn’t seem like much of a fighter is all.
This week’s battle might require some thought. We have two silver foxes duking it out in a winner-take-all bloodbath. It’s CNN’s news-reading pin-up Anderson Cooper (or Cooper Anderson, as my Mom calls him) versus Project Runway’s dapper father-figure Tim Gunn.
Don’t let age be too much of a factor (it is, after all only 13 years — Cooper’s 40 to Gunn’s 53 [thank you Wikipedia]).
Anderson Cooper
Strengths:
- Comparative youth is a factor
- Keeps in shape (probably takes kickboxing classes)
- Probably has a sassy fighting outfit
Weaknesses:
- Defensive about gay questions
- Former model
- Prettyboy (see Derek Shepherd)
Secret Weapon: Learned tricks of mental warfare as host of The Mole
Tim Gunn
Strengths:
- His name is Tim Gunn
- Commands authority
- James Bond-ish demeanor implies that he is downplaying his combat skills
Weaknesses:
- Probably doesn’t like to get dirty
- Would rather talk it out
- Probably blind without glasses
Secret Weapon: Too lovable to punch

Anderson wins of course, because his smile sweeps most of girls and big part of guy population also. And his luckiness to be in ‘training class hosted by girl’ is mental support, what is given only to handpicked public persons!

Anderson can stand up against powerful 200 mph winds, so him.

Anderson would win. He is rumored to favor rough trade Latinos in the bedroom so he knows street fighting. He probably also has a street posse of Latino homeys (or should that be homos?). His Yale education helps when brains are necessary. He was also on the rowing team, giving him some athletic prowess. And his time in Vietnam helps in dodging land mines. Finally, if all else fails, he can bribe his way out with his mom’s fortune.

If Tim won he would comfort Anderson with a sincere hug, but I think it would probably be a tie.

Love them both but think Tim could psyche Andy out, bringing him to his knees with sheer mind power. And wouldn’t we all like to see that?
