Watch What Happens Live presenter, Andy Cohen, has revealed he is "waiting" to be cancelled and often wonders when one of his controversial remarks will "make it all fall down".
The 56-year-old Bravo star, who was recently cleared after being investigated by the TV network and parent company NBCUniversal following lawsuits from former Real Housewives stars, said he often thinks about how his public remarks will affect his career.
Speaking to Vulture, he said: "It's fascinating to me, the idea that you could say something and everything would be pulled away from you...
"Sometimes at night I’ll be in bed and I’ll think, Huh, did I say something? I’m always waiting for the thing that’s going to make it all fall down."
The late-night talk show host admitted he has to be "smart" with what he says now but said he enjoys being "provocative".
"You have to be smart about what you say because there's no nuance anymore. People are just waiting to be outraged by every little thing," he said.
He added: "I like being provocative. It makes me feel alive in a weird way. It’s dangerous. It’s spontaneous.
"I think it sometimes gets to the heart of who a person is. If you navigate it well, it can become something incredible and intoxicating. It's like dancing on the water: Are you going to go over or not?"
The Emmy Award-winning host said he credits having many celebrity friends before becoming famous himself for giving him "perspective".
He explained: "I had a sense of how to behave. And then I had a lot of people who were normal people who were becoming famous, Housewives who were turning into beasts as a result.
"So I'm ultimately very appreciative of the whole thing. And you have to keep that perspective. You can’t go all in on it. Because it can all go away tomorrow."
