Andy Cohen welcomes Rachel Ray & Jenna Bush Hager to the Watch What Happens Live Clubhouse.
Bartender: It's the main person responsible for decking out the clubhouse, Mike Robbely. Mike is a PA at #WWHL & also the @GaySharkWWHL!
Drinking Game Alert: BUSH
Andy thanks his fans for all the tweets he's been getting wishing him well after his accident. Andy discloses to us the details about his freak accident. Andy said he had a little injury after the show and says he was completely sober when it happened. While he was getting ready for bed a mirror that was leaning against the wall fell on his head. When Andy felt the back of his head he looked at his hand and saw there was blood everywhere. He went to the emergency room and wound up with three staples in his head. Thank God he's ok!
Andy shows some really cute pics of a younger Jenna.
Poll Question:
Here's What:
1) Andy plays a game with Jenna called, "Daddy Like or Take A Hike?"
2) Andy plays a fun little game by putting Rachel's cooking skills to a test. They play "You call the Slots!" Where three random items appear after pulling the slot machine and Rachel must come up with the recipe for those ingredients. Rachel is incredibly imaginative.
3) Andy place a little gamelet with Jenna called, "When Bush Comes To Shove!"
Andy gives Jenna a situation with two choices and Jenna must tell us which she chooses.
AC: Who would you choose to be your Besty Betty White or Snoop Dogg?
JB: It's Snoop Dogg for sure!
AC: Would you rather give a foot massage to Dick Cheney or wax John McCain's back hair?
JB: A foot massage to Dick Cheney.
AC: Who would you rather babysit your daughter Ann Coulter or Dina Lohan.
JB: Jenna pleads the fifth on this question and says neither!
AC: Who would you rather do karaoke with Chelsea Clinton or the Obama daughters?
JB: The Obama daughters of course.
AC: Which of your parents would you rather go on a road trip with alone, George or Laura?
JB: That's not nice Andy, putting her parents up against one another. Jenna would rather spend more time with her dad because she hasn't gotten the chance to lately so she chooses George.
Caroline from Richmond called to ask Rachel if she is team Duke or team Martha?
Rachel is on Team Food. Everybody who likes to eat has a different take on the situation. Everyone's opinion should be respected. She thinks Gwyneth Paltrow is very devoted to everything she puts her mind to. Gwyneth is actually a brilliant cookbook author. Rachel has nothing but respect for Martha Stewart.
Valerie sent in a question for Jenna asking if she's ever seen her mom toak up, because she is a fan of Bob Marley?
Jenna has never seen her toke up, but does say she is a secret Rastafarian.
ShotSki Time!
GIF of the Night:
BelieWig it or not we are only 4 days away from Kim and NeNe on WWHL!
Andy asks what Jenna's thoughts are on the recent negative comments about the Obama daughters?
Jenna is fiercely protective of them. It's not a job that they wanted, so it's hard. Jenna had a hard time. They are great girls and have done an incredible job.
Jim, my new Twitter buddy @JimFromRaleigh called from you guessed it Raleigh North Carolina (my place of residence) to say it's so great to be talking to two huge Howard Stern fans like Andy and Rachel Ray. Rachel confirms she is a huge Stern fan! Jim goes on to ask Jenna if she's ever fooled around in the White House & what room did you do it in?
(Best Question of the night is awarded to Jim🏆)
Jenna says a lady never talks. Jenna's husband is in the audience. Jenna try's to avoid answering the question by telling us she was 19 years old when her dad became president. Then Jenna admits maybe there was a little hanky-panky in the White House, perhaps there was a kiss on the roof.
(Watch Jim's Q&A for Jenna here)
Debbie from Missouri called to ask Rachel out of all the housewives who have been to her show who is her favorite?
Rachel doesn't pick favorites in anything.
Game Time!
Andy plays with the ladies a game called "Presidential or Inconsequential?"
Jenna tests Andy's knowledge of politics from 2001 to 2009. If Andy gets incorrect Rachel gives him his medicine a spoonful of whiskey.
Andy got 4 wrong & 2 right & during the game revealed that he had had intercourse with a Secret Service agent. It was with one of Hillary Clinton's guys.
For playing along they both win Rachael Ray food scented body spray.
Andy gives Jenna a Barbara Bush Barbie doll. Jenna is going to give it to her daughter.
Jenna alongside with her sister Barbara will not be joining politics ever.
Sabrina called from Orlando Florida to ask Jenna if she was a housewife what would her house with tagline be?
Jenna's tagline would be quoted from her hero Dolly Parton, "Grab life by the rhinestones y'all!"
Rachel Ray is still looking for the right location in Manhattan for her restaurant. She's been looking for over six years. If anybody knows of a good location please let her know.
Andy throws out the Mazel of the Day because tonight it's necessary to have a double JackHole, all thanks to the Rockefeller Center tree lighting "spectacular".
Jackhole #1 of the Day: Goes to LeAnn Rimes singing a song called I want a hippopotamus for Christmas. Which made no sense to Andy. He even looked up hippos on Wikipedia and saw no connection to Christmas and a hippopotamus. Andy did learn while researching that baby hippos have to eat their mothers feces in order to digest there food. 😝
That Andy understands because he feels like he has just eaten crap after hearing her sing that song!
Jackhole #2 Goes to The so-called choreographer who was responsible for the children performing in Mariah Carey's song who look like they were plied with uppers doing hip-hop moves. Give them a break their just children. Andy thought getting staples in his head was bad but watching that was just pure pain for him.
Poll Results:
A BUSH Wins every time on watch what happens live! 😜
AfterShow:
Mike the PA behind the bar is single & ready to mingle & looking for a man these days.
Chad from Atlanta asked Jenna if she plans on singing in the today show musical?
Kathy Lee Gifford wrote the today show musical, it's either going to be a disaster or amazing or an amazing disaster. Jenna has a speaking role not a singing role.
Carolyn calling from LA asked Rachel if she has any sexy ideas for married girls?
Rachel really doesn't bring sexy to the bedroom and her married life. On her wedding night she wore a négligée and her husband laughed at her and said go get your pajamas. The sexy roll play things don't work for her and her marriage. Rachel thinks the sexiest way to anybody's anything is the Lady and the Tramp, you got to go with spaghetti. Spaghetti turns of her and her husband on.
Drinking Game: BUSH was said 14 times. Remember no drinking and driving kiddos!
Nicholas from Louisiana called to ask Jenna how her sister Barbara is doing?
Her sister is doing great she started A non-for profit called The global health core. She spends about a third of her time in Africa.
Jenna has been at two state dinners, one with Prince Charles. Jenna might've also been caught drinking out while she was in college. She apologized for that.
Alyssa from Kansas City asked Rachel what percentage of chefs actually come up with their own recipes?
Rachel honestly doesn't know the answer to that question but knows that she personally is always writing her own recipes. Every day she writes and no books every day. Rachel feels like explaining food on television is like storytelling. Rachel has every single notebook she has written in for the last 20 years of all her recipes, even ones that have not made it on her shows.
And with that Andy bids us a good night.
