Anderson Cooper to Fan: B****, What Are You Doing?

iPhone snap prompts some colorful language

(Newser) – Anderson Cooper had some choice words for a fan who tried to snap some iPhone photos of him during a 6am plane flight yesterday. "I grabbed the guy on the shoulder and I said something to the effect of, 'Bitch, what the f*** are you doing?" he told Kathy Griffin on her new Bravo show last night. "Normally I would just be like, 'We're not going to win this one,' but I've lately become emboldened," he noted. The weirdest detail, notes Cooper: Olympic skater Johnny Weir was sitting next to him, the Los Angeles Times reports. Cooper seemed a little embarrassed by his potty-mouth. "It was one of those things, as soon as I said, I was like 'I can't believe I said this to this guy,'" he confessed. Click to watch the interview.

Eh... it is probably polite to ask before taking someone's picture, even if they are a public figure.  Then again, I don't really like folks calling me 'Bitch' either so I'm sure my reply would have been equally 'colorful'.
