When Tituss Burgess was a guest on “Watch What Happens Live” in July 2019, things turned icy. After Burgess gushed about his experience working with Eddie Murphy on the movie “Dolemite Is My Name,” Andy Cohen wondered how they got along behind the scenes. “He was very problematic for the gays at one point when I was coming up,” the host continued.
Burgess, who was visibly put off by this, replied, “Oh, I see, he wasn’t problematic for Tituss, and we had a wonderful time. … Any troubles he may have had with gay people I guess are gone because he loved me,” Burgess replied before saying something to someone in the audience. When Cohen asked Burgess about it, the actor replied, “Keep going, girl. Do your show.”
Following the episode, Burgess called Cohen out in a very long and very shady Instagram comment. “He should remember his talk show isn’t an episode of the real housewives of Atlanta!” Burgess wrote. “Sunday was a display of ratchet behavior by a well connected man having blatant disregard for one of his guests.” Burgess went on to appear on Wendy Williams’ show and, of course, the “WWHL” drama came up (via People). “I will not tolerate the dismantling of anyone’s legacy,” the actor stated, “especially not my own.” In a 2020 interview with Hollywood Unlocked, Burgess said he was no longer at odds with Cohen but still wasn’t cool with the remark.
