Anderson Cooper Gets His First Spray Tan ... With Snooki

Anderson Cooper is breaking a lot of ground with his new talk show. The renowned journalist is doing things he hasn't done before ... he's relishing daring, foreign experiences!

... Such as spray tanning.

On Tuesday's episode of Cooper's new day-time show, Anderson, the 44-year-old went for his first-ever spray tan, and he brought an expert with him: Jersey Shore's Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi.

Snooki gave her expert assessment of Cooper's skin state, saying: "Oh my God, you're pale! It's scary."

But she wasn't without compliments. "I had no idea Mr. 'Anderstand' had muscles," she said. "When he took off his shirt, he has this huge, like, peanut muscle. It was cool."

Watch it all go down (and see a shirtless Anderson) in the video above!
