Andy Cohen’s February 24 appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show was everything fans could’ve wanted.

How to Watch

The host of Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen covered a wide range of topics with host Kelly Clarkson, speaking about everything from his affinity for edibles (“No one is judging here,” said Clarkson) to what it was like meeting a wax statue of himself! It’s an appearance well worth watching in its entirety, and both guest and host had an absolute blast hanging out with each other!

To amp up the entertainment value even further, Clarkson’s production team even tracked down some seriously old-school photos of Cohen to sprinkle in throughout the episode, and they didn’t disappoint.

His hair was so gloriously long back in the day, and we’ll never pass up any opportunity to see Cohen in all of his curly-haired glory.

The first throwback pic can be found at the 6:46 mark and sent Clarkson’s audience into a frenzy: a college-aged Cohen posing next to a Mr. T wax statue at Madame Tussauds London looking so hip with his curly, dark, shoulder-length hair. He looked great!

Andy Cohen and Kelly Clarkson look at a photo on a screen on The Kelly Clarkson Show Season 6, Episode 96.

And the trip down memory lane didn’t stop there.

At the 12:45 mark, another fascinating photo appeared on screen — and Cohen told viewers exactly what they were looking at.

“There I am at Jim Morrison’s grave with a cigarette in hand,” Cohen deadpanned.

“You’re so cool,” remarked Clarkson.

Despite the difference in hairstyle over the decades, Cohen looks pretty much the same as he did in college! What’s his secret?

These are the songs Andy Cohen wants Kelly Clarkson to cover

Our favorite take away, however, from Cohen’s epic appearance was discovering his wish list of songs he wants Clarkson to perform for Kellyoke in the future.

“Are you at all a Deadhead?” Cohen asked. “Because I would love for you to cover some [Grateful] Dead in your Kellyoke.”

“We always need ideas, let’s do it!” Clarkson chirped.

But Cohen didn’t stop there.

“I have another strong suggestion for you — what about “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia?” he said, referring to the classic song made famous by former Voice Coach Reba McEntire!

“Have I done that?” Clarkson asked, looking over to My Band, Y’all. “That’s a good one, write that down!”

Stay tuned to future episodes of The Kelly Clarkson Show to see if Clarkson grants any of Cohen’s requests!
