Everyone loves a good Reddit AMA, or Ask Me Anything. It's the perfect opportunity for fans to get to know their favorite celebrities even better and for celebs to give all of us a glimpse into who they really are. In recent years, we have gotten some pretty amazing AMAs including Jane Goodall, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk. 2019 is off to a great start because one of our childhood favorites just had an epic AMA session.


The latest hit AMA comes from a little monster whom we all hold dear and identify with like crazy. Yep, Cookie Monster just hosted a Reddit Ask Me Anything.

He revealed his plan yesterday afternoon on Twitter.

From there, he created his Reddit thread.

The best part, however, was that he was using the entire AMA as a ploy to raise money for a pretty rad charity.

As would be expected, the questions quickly poured in.

(Personally, I support a Lady Gaga/Cookie Monster duet 100000%)

"Hi Cookie, besides the classic "'C' is for Cookie" which we all know and love, what would you say is your favourite song from your time on Sesame Street?" - berserkirk (Reddit)

Finally, one person asked the most important question of all.

"What's the most important part of a cookie?" - Cursed60Car (Reddit)
"If it chocolate chippie, it the chippies. If it oatmeal raisin, it the raisins. But me always think the most important part of cookie is having enough to share with friends." - Me_CookieMonster (Reddit)

Scott Bessent Blasted Over His Bonkers Suggestion For How To Bring Your Own Inflation Rate Down

Continuing to follow the example of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared on Meet the Press Sunday to blame Democratic President Joe Biden for the financial downturn caused by Trump's tariff fiasco, then lied repeatedly about the state of the economy.

Meet the Press host Kristen Welker played a clip of MAGA Republican Vice President JD Vance telling a conservative audience at a Breitbart News event that Americans owe the Trump administration "a little bit of patience"—apparently while they figure out what tariffs are and how they work since they're rolling back more of them to lower consumer prices despite claiming Trump's tariffs don't affect consumer prices.
