Fifteen celebrity contestants tackling trivia about Washington, D.C., competing for their favorite charities—it’s Jeopardy! Power Players.
Before the taping started, nearly all of the players confessed to being nervous.
“I'm worried about this buzzer. That's what I'm worried about. I'm worried about clicking in too fast or too slow. I don't know,” said journalist and talk show host Anderson Cooper.
The winner of each round collected $50,000 in charity money. The runners-up each got $10,000.
“If I lose again, I'm a big jeopardy loser. You lose all your credibility. No, well, I don't know how much credibility I have but I lose whatever I have,” Anderson Cooper said.

If Anderson thinks his credibility is at stake because of a loss on Jeopardy, he should have had the same concern for his failing attempt at show host.
One things for sure.
This guy loves face time.
