Andrew Cuomo Is Okay with His Fans Calling Themselves 'Cuomosexual'
Television show host Ellen DeGeneres shared a video where she interviewed New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. DeGeneres asked him if he had a problem with people calling themselves “Cuomosexuals,” and the governor’s response was interesting.
For her at-home episode of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” DeGeneres spoke to Cuomo informing him that she was a “Cuomosexual.” She explained to the governor that the person who had started the trend was Trevor Noah.
The television show host further asked Cuomo if he knew people were calling themselves that and if he had an issue with it. While smiling at the endearment the official said: "Yeah, I think that's a good thing."
