Andy Cohen was called out by Madonna during the Brooklyn stop of her Celebration Tour — and he’s still not over it.
"Being called a 'troublemaking queen' by the Queen of Troublemaking is the thrill of a lifetime for this lifelong Madonna fan," Cohen, 55, wrote in an Instagram post on Sunday, December 17. "I BOW! Also - you must see the new tour, it totally blew me away!! What an incredible night. Can't wait to go back. #TroublemakingQueen."
Madonna, 65, spotted Cohen in the audience during her Celebration Tour stop in Brooklyn on Saturday, December 16. She singled out the Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen host in the front row and pointed him out.
"If you dare to say anything negative about me on your show again, you'll be in hot water," Madonna playfully teased from the stage. "You mischievous troublemaker!"
In the video, Cohen was shown shouting, "I love you," to Madonna. "Yeah, right. It's that kind of wild love. I'm familiar with it. I'm addicted to it too," she replied.
During a recent sharing of a video showing the interaction on Sunday, Cohen also shared several highlights from WWHL where he excitedly praised Madonna, even presenting her with his “Mazel of the Day.”
“You just continue to improve,” Cohen commented during a previous segment. In another instance, he commended Madonna for keeping “80,000 people dancing for two hours.”
Cohen recently posted a clip from a 2013 WWHL episode featuring himself and Ellen Pompeo competing in Madonna trivia, with Wendi McLendon-Covey as the moderator.
Despite being a big fan of the musician, Cohen revealed that he received a less-than-friendly text message from Madonna earlier this year.
"Madonna has not done the show yet, but I still hope she will," Cohen shared on "The Howard Stern Show" in June. "I was keeping a long list of interview questions for her in my Notes app in case she ever did the show, but she's kind of answered a lot of it already."
Cohen also mentioned that he and Madonna had been in contact "a couple years ago" when he and friend Anderson Cooper went to see one of her concerts.
"She told me, 'Stop allowing people to disrespect me on your show,'" he remembered. "I told her, 'I always speak so positively — on the radio and Watch What Happens Live. It's only the negative stuff that gets noticed.' I could easily create a four-hour compilation of me praising Madonna on Watch What Happens Live or on the radio."

Cohen explained that he plays a Madonna song “every 75 minutes” on his “Andy Cohen’s Kiki Lounge” radio station.
“That’s how many Madonna songs there are in the queue,” he added. “So, that’s how big of a fan I am.”
