Andy welcomes Melissa Etheridge & Gretchen Mol to the Watch What Happens Live Clubhouse.
Bartender: It's Erin Moriarty From 48 Hours & CBS This Morning!
(I tweeted this question before the show and Andy answered it when he introduced the bartender.)
Full circle moment: Andy was Erin's intern a few years back. For CBS Sunday morning. Back then Erin asked Andy to transcribe some tapes for her. Andy replied he could not do it but then when she looked at him very angrily and almost fired Andy, he came back and he did it and said it was a miracle and then he became her favorite of all time.
She also happens to be interviewing Andy about his new Book #TheAndyCohenDiaries November 9 on CBS.
(Fun Fact) Melissa is a gold star gay as well as Andy.

Patty from Boston asked Melissa if she feels younger artists use auto tune too much nowadays?
Melissa just wrote a piece for billboard about autotune. She feels that autotune is hard for an artist because they use it on the record and then they have to go on tour without it. (several houswives right now wish they would've talk to Melissa before they made their own singles)
Gretchens mom is no longer teaching high school but she is painting.
Gretchen if you could appear on the cover of Vanity Fair again would you do it. She has no regrets about doing it.
@Danimo950 asked a question Via Twitter.
Melissa hasn't talked to Brad in over 10 years. Melissa famously sang at Brad and Jennifer Anderson's wedding. Earlier today she said in an interview that she sang Ramble On. A fan Rhonda who is the biggest Melissa fan corrected Melissa and said she saying a whole lot of love. Melissa has never spoken or met Angelina. She never meant to mean that comment in a mean way, it's just calling it brave is not something that she would do. It was more fearful to do then Brave. People can do whatever they want it's their bodies.

GIF of the Night: Goes to Josh Altman & his puppy.
Andy asks Erin what it's like standing behind the bar?
She says this is actually like the perfect job for her because she's passed two bar exams. (Very Punny Erin!)
The audience is filled of 22 people and four them are from the cubbyhole tonight!
Ryan K sent in a question & asked what Melissa thought about Miley Cyrus says cover of Led Zeppelin's babe I'm going to leave you?
Melissa says Miley Cyrus can sing and she loves watching her & she loves watching her rebellious side.
Kaitlyn from New York asked Gretchen how she wants Boardwalk Empire to end?
Gretchen doesn't want it to end but she always wants her character to sort a win. She hopes the show will make the fans happy and that it will be very impactful.
Andy suggests maybe she'll wind up owning her own whorehouse in the end.😂
Michelle from Washington asked Melissa what her favorite edible marijuana is?
Melissa is not very fond of the edibles because when you eat them it does a little different thing in your head then when you smoke so she's not crazy about them.
Andy finds the edibles make him more sociable. He finds them to give him more energy.
Gretchen compares them to butter.
Melissa says why are we drinking and if he says because we can't do that here in New York. (Pst it's illegal still)
Ironically Melissa from Denver Colorado where it's legal asked Gretchen if she was a madam in real life what she would name her whorehouse?
Mol's mansion of mystery and magic.
Game Time!
Wouldn't it be fun if there was a window and musicians would come and squish their butts up against the glass? Andy ranges for that exact game to be played with Melissa and Gretchen called Bum to my window! 😂
You can watch the entire clip here!
Andy shows famous musical asses pressed up against a window. Melissa and Gretchen must guess who belongs to that famous ass.
Melissa wins 5 to 3!
Plug Alert: For playing along Melissa and Gretchen both win Mazel Undies available on ShopByBravo.com
Erin has some really big murders coming up on 48 hours soon. She even bought her own special 48 hours shot glass that she might leave for Andy to display.
Andy asked Melissa if there's a secret lesbian society in LA?
Melissa says yes there is but they're not that much fun.
Maggie from Pittsburgh Kallsen to ask Melissa if there was a movie made about her who would she like to play her?
Melissa says Jennifer Lawrence. She's very cool and a really good actress.
Gretchen didn't like filming sex scenes with her on-screen child. Sex scenes are hard!
Mazel of the Day: Goes to Julia Pierson the secret service chief. It'll be easier for the present Obama to sleep without a ton of men barging into his sleeping quarters. Andy's never had a problem with random men barging into his sleeping quarters. Andy doesn't live in the White House, yet. 😜
Jackhole of the Day: Goes to Kim Jong-il who has gotten so chubby that both of his ankles have fractured. He's a dictator who is a dick that loves taters!
Poll Results:
