Even without knowing Anderson was there, I knew that No 1 was the one from the beginning. When he turned and pushed Anderson to move, I knew this kid was used to taking charge of things. His walk of confidence and taking over gave it away.
tigergreg8 I knew it by the Push, as well.
Same! Screamed professional stage child.
I knew because he was wearing red.
Also in the video you see everyone wearing red costumes!🎆🌅🎇💕
Hats are all red costumes too
In the 90s at my work, we used to chat with Kitty Carlisle often, my boss could really get her to talk. I find it difficult to believe she wouldn't have known Anderson through Gloria Vanderbilt already who definitely would have been in her same social circles at the time.
That's probably how he got on the show.
Good points. Hard to believe Kitty wouldn’t have ever met Anderson.
There's no business like show business.
There's a difference between knowing the name of Gloria's son and recognizing him in a circus outfit trying to lie about his identity. She might have met him as a baby let's say, but it's likely the kids at that age were usually separate from the adults.
Could it be be bcuz children don't usually go to cocktail parties? Going to the same parties doesn't mean they were buddies and visited each other's homes. Just a thought....
the number 3 little kid was too cute. did anybody even tell him to pretend he was a bear trainer lol
At 2:10 Nipsy recites his bear poem ʕ•́؈•̀ʔ
I bought myself a little pet bear
He follows behind me everywhere
People are saying Nipsy is losing his mind
He’s all over town with his bear behind
How could anyone think it was number 3. He was adorable but had no clue.
It could have been like the "youngest clown" episode where the kid clown purposefully acted increasingly unsure and disinterested to throw them off. Kitty was on the panel for that one, too. ua-cam.com/video/rSWI4o2gRIY/v-deo.html
Funny part is that Cooper was wealthier than all the celebrities....
Today...his mother Gloria Vanderbilt wasn't that wealthy--by this time none of Cornelius Vanderbilt's descendants had a net worth that reached seven figures.
@@tomservo56954 when she Died last Year She had a Estate in Excess of 1.5 Billion Not Sure where you got your Information from but her will is a Public Record
@@gwb7875 I said at the time (mid 1970's)....clearly those jeans did quite well by her.
@@gwb7875 Gloria Vanderbilt made her money.
@@merricat3025 She didn't make her Money She was Born a Vanderbilt her Grandfather was at One time One of the Wealthiest Men in America look up Biltmore Castle and Her Second Husband was Wealthier than her he was Worth at the Time of his Death an Estimated 800mil she was Worth an Estimated 500mil and She made even more Money with her Clothing Collection is in the 80s but dont think She was Self Made when she was Born Rich Married Rich not Once but Twice and had 4 Children 1 Anderson's Twin Brother Commit Suicide.
Anderson totally rocked that hat. He was also quite convincing.
And he's been lying to people ever since 😆
Projection!
He never once told his viewers an election was stolen. Good try though
aquaman: You're the liar fact deniar.
Exactly!!!!
@aqua6613 He never lies, you filthy repulsive punk.
I gotta wonder.....if Nipsey Russell ever wrote a book compilation of his poems.....it would be a best seller
Poems are a front runner to song lyrics or rap music writing. He has a wonderful gift of rhyme.
prick once said (on another game show) that the only difference between making love & rape, was romance...makes me wonder if he would've survived MeToo, must have some dirt in his past, if that was his true feeling about sexual assault
Laura Nolastnamegiven It's hard to know, and we'll never know. NR is not here to confirm what he may have said nor give any explanation. Decades ago, there was a different view about sexual assault. In general, if a woman wore "seductive" clothing, rape was considered her fault. The aggressor may have been tried in court, but the female was seen as part of the problem for choosing to wear something that excited a man sexually. Society later discovered the motive for rape is not sexual desire, but rather desire for power...iow violence. Hopefully, the confusion has been cleared and victims of abuse don't accept the blame for another's actions.
@@donnawoodford6641 oh, I don't disagree, I just remember hearing that, I think it was on Match Game, years ago, on Game Show Network, and being shocked that anyone would think that, even in the mid-late 1970s, or that they wouldn't edit that out, sensing that it was too controversial, or unpleasant a topic for afternoon (I don't think this was the evening version) television...I wish I remembered the facial expressions on the rest of the celebrity panel, or the audience's reaction, but I don't
I think what it is was called a lymrick
I felt sorry for those Bears. They look really sad
I agree, I imagine they were treated rather cruel to learn to obey like that. They looked wayyyyy to docile for a wild animal. Poor things are at rest now and enjoying life elsewhere, thank goodness.
@@Theyralltakenfu Well, it keeps them off the streets.
Lol. I knew I'd find one of these comments.
@merricat3025 you felt sorry for the bears for a good reason.
"Physical punishment has always been the standard training method for animals in circuses. Animals are beaten, shocked, and whipped to make them perform-over and over again-tricks that make no sense to them. The AWA allows the use of bullhooks, whips, electrical shock prods, or other devices by circus trainers."
Ignore comments by people who are either unaware of the cruelty or just don't care about anyone but themselves.
Thankfully circuses with animals are outlawed completely in six states so far and have various restrictions in the other states in the US.
"More than 45 countries, including India, Italy, Iran, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, and the Netherlands, have already passed laws banning the use of wild animals in circuses."
Your informed compassion is refreshing.
Horrible. Animals do Not belong in circuses.
He had a fierce demeanor even at age 10.
@nickxero2740 Nah. He wasn't until only after wearing that costume. J/k.
🚬👴🏿🥃 COOPER IS A FRUIT CUPCAKE
@nickxero2740🚬🧔🏿🥃 HOW DO U KNOW AND WHAT PART OF PLATOS RETREAT DID U HANG OUT AT?
@DonnaL-xv6tu 🚬👴🏿🥃 TELL THAT TO YOUR HUSBAND
#1 pushing Anderson to get going was so cute. But #3 stole the show with his clueless smile.
🚬🧔🏿🥃 COOPER IS A DOILY
apparently kid #3 became the production designer for ant-man and the wasp, Ant-Man, Baywatch, and Horrible Bosses
as i watch all these old shows, i’m constantly aware of how things have really changed. i don’t think that THESE bears were treated badly, but others were. and yeah, they were free, but they had to wear muzzles. even that little baby bear and she had to walk on her hind legs - i think she was too young for that. adults do it in the wild, but i’ve never seen a cub do that. 🐻🐻❄️
She's a year old so it shouldn't hurt her.
They are definitely being treated roughly. This is NOT OK. Animals are not here to do tricks for humans or live in cages and trucks in traveling shows and circuses. Thank goodness animal acts have gone by the wayside.
*Before he was a star..., he was still a Vanderbilt, from one of America's most wealthy and influential families...*
I know. I wondered if the people who produced this show knew that he was actually a Vanderbilt.
@@kaymuldoon3575 His dad knew somebody associated with the show and got Anderson and his brother on the show.The brother acted like a tennis player according to Anderson.I dont know if a copy of that show exist.
In my book he is not a star , but a fake news idiot!
@@kaymuldoon3575Of course, they would have. Kitty Carlisle was a NY socialite.
Yes, but from a young age he was told he had no inheritance, so he became a hard worker.
Those kids really socked it to Nipsey with his line of questioning. I literally lost it after hearing their answers. :D
🚬🧔🏿🥃 U LAUGH EAZY AND TOO MUCH
After number 3 first answer, we all know he’s not the right kid lol
And awww the lady in green trying to make feel #3 smart haha. That was sweet of her.
It really was- she seemed like a sweet person in real life. She was a regular panelist on this show. Before the show became less formal, they would always wear elaborate evening wear on the. It took her hours to get ready. Different time.
." . . . . and my Mommy makes jeans with her name on them"
And a perfume.
And she makes Satanic Shadowbox Art too!
Tthom2 as a ten year old, he probably didn't know or care what his parents did......….his time was spent with nannies
@@tinfoilmagnolia2546 Goodness, but what a jealous and hateful thing to say. Oh, that's right. You're a RepubliKKKan.
@@leonply it's TRUE
...and I go to Dalton School. THAT says it all back when this was made in NYC.
When I was a teenager growing up in NYC....the show was taped at NBC (30 Rock)....I attended many tapings
John Perry Yes- I never went to this show, but I saw “What’s my line” a lot.
The 1970's were truly the era of quasi-celebs who were "famous for being famous". Viewers were never sure what they DID exactly... or where they came from.
So unlike the Kardashians of today, right?
Poor bear 💔❤️
If Betty White was on the panel she would have given that bear trainer a piece of her mind. 🐻
Anderson was given a bit of a flashback years later. When another correspondent was giving a story about Justin Bieber, on how he was supposedly a brat when he appeared on "CSI", a picture of Anderson from this episode of "To Tell the Truth" suddenly appeared on screen. The explanation they gave him for the picture appearing was a "technical glitch".
🚬🧔🏿🥃 COOPER IS A DING DONG
This episode was videotaped sometime in 1977. Does anyone have the exact date when it was recorded? I do not. Mark Goodson - Bill Todman Productions regularly produced five To Tell The Truth episodes on the same day. It was always a weekday.
Foreshadowing rocking the purple....😂
So this is how Shepherd Frankel got his start in show business....Amazing.
Love no. 3. The kid had no idea what was going on.
He was so much younger than the other two, so that's probably why. He grew up to become a production designer. I just looked him up.😊
He looks exactly the same now, only older. He was age 9 at the time of this telecast.
That is kind of young for a fifth grader.
Dang .. I was fooled both times! ..but you sure can still tell that's Anderson :)
Nipsey Russell, what a cool dude.
Those answers given to Nipsey Russell were hilarious!
OMG Anderson had that serious newsreader persona even then 😅
Kitty Carlisle was probably friends with Anderson’s parents
Kitty was friends with so many people
The middle one is Anderson Cooper before it was revealed who was the real circus performer. I can tell by his eyes.
You could tell by the fact that he was the one pictured in the thumbnail.
I thought it was because of the ball indentions on his chin .
I think that it is the child in blue, since his costume is different than the other two. He smiled a lot, and seems honest.
Nipsey Russell was a genius.
I always loved his poems.
@e n what?
Bill Cullen was having none of that joke...
Nipsey Russell was a comic genius. Albert Einstein was a genius.
I was the Talent Coordinator on the next incarnation of TTTT hosted by Robin Ward.
That wasn't a year old bear, it was a one month old bear.
kinda funny that most of the panel pegged Anderson as a bear trainer.
THAT'S ANDERSON COOPER?!!! LOL!!! HOW FUNNY! LET ANDY COHEN GET A COPY OF THIS!!! LOL!!❤😂😂❤!! A BEAR TRAINER??!! HE'S ALWAYS SO STRAIGHT FACED! HE DOES LOOK THE SAME THOUGH!!😂❤
Of course, Anderson’s costume is the most fabulous!
I can tell number 2 is Anderson! Happy Birthday, Anderson!
I used to love this show! Still do!
They're all ADORABLE!
I wasn't quite sure number 2 was Anderson until I saw that smile.😅
He looks like Jan Brady in that black wig!
The comment I was searching for!! I thought it was her in the thumbnail!
That poor bear cub had it's mouth strapped closed. That's awful.
Well, you know the celebrities must be protected from the people and animals they don't really care about.
That's how they train them not to bite!
The bear can eat, drink, and breathe just fine. It’s also a common muzzle used on dogs and other animals that can bite. I don’t like circuses and am glad to see that at least here in the states circuses have pretty much disappeared. However, that muzzle is harmless and the bear is not only fine, but, given the circumstances, safer for not being able to bite anyone who might react harshly.
Its no different to some dogs that need to be muzzled. Sometimes they bite. Bears are still wild animals.
To tell the truth......teaching children to lie like sociopaths for 30 years.
Nipsey Russell was the best
At what?
Flamboyant!
Oh yeah, the bears seem really delighted.
They would never get by with doing that crap to animals today...thank the Lord! Kept watching because of Anderson.
It was super obvious to me that it was 1. He was the only one who actually knew the logistics and safety protocols of a circus!
I think all the celebrities knew too but wanted to act dumb so the kids could at least get some money.
If you're wearing headphones, turn up the volume, you can hear the director.
You can hear "PAN" during the contestant intro, even without headphones. Seemed to happen often during that time. An example is on that 'Telephone Game' TPiR segment Wink posted a while back: ua-cam.com/video/KzrZCLB-DF4/v-deo.htmlm42s (you can hear "Take 3" I think)
I happen to be be wearing Gloria Vanderbilt jeans as I watch this lol. Not planned😊
Anderson Cooper in the early days. Love it!
Why?
he was a douche then as well as now!!!
I’ve seen this episode a few times. I adore Anderson Cooper today in 2023 and can’t control myself each time I see him on To Tell the Truth. 🩵
Love little Robin too. 🐻
🚬🧔🏿🥃 COOPER IS A DOILY
he rocked that purple outfit I bet his new baby gonna look like him 100 % and where that hat lol
He is a homosexual.... no babies born to him😕
@@suzyjackson5514 he just had son by sperm being put in women HELLO
@@suzyjackson5514 you can't possibly be that ignorant to believe that gay men can't have biological children. In vitro fertilization has been around for far too long. Do better.
Mean cruel people are so crazy attacking Little Cooper. They have to play the game! And proving truth works then and today. These boys are cute.
Anderson has a NYC metro accent here, that he doesn’t have as an adult. And it’s true, he went to the Dalton school, whose yearly tuition is close to probably over 50K a year (2023) well the third kid goes to PS 75 (Elementary Public School #75)
Even as a child Anderson had so much composure and intelligent
Anderson has a NYC metro accent here, that he doesn’t have as an adult.
@@MikeCee7 American Broadcast accent. It’s a learned thing.
@@StormyDayIt’s not so easy to lose a New York accent If it’s so, talk to Sylvester Stallone, Tony Danza, Bernie Sanders, Donal Trump, all 4 of the Ramones, Mariah Carey, the current mayor of NYC, (I forgot his name) etc. etc. etc.
@@MikeCee7 you have to WANT to. I don’t think any of those people you mentioned wanted to lose their accent. Sylvester Stallone is from Philly.
@@StormyDay if you didn’t come across your mind yet, I’m from New York metro area, and I have not lost my accent and I WANT to lose it.
Animals need their home ..not circus..how do you want treats to perform tricks and be locked in cage alone all the time.
You do realize this was decades ago, right?
Most of these animals wouldn't even be alive if it wasn't for the market for them. They are raised from birth to do this and know no other way. They can be held in captivity and live good lives.
I love Joe Garagiola!
#3 is Chuck Shumer
What year is this show?
...not to mention heir to the Vanderbilt fortune.
Yes, my mother is Gloria!
Anderson has and still works hard.
@Kirk Moore She really didn't have a lot of money left. She left one son her apartment and Anderson got the rest of her estate.
They were already going broke not long after the Biltmore in North Carolina was built. That is why they turned it into a museum. I don't think it has been owned by the Vanderbilt's for a long time. They swindled a lot of their money. Good thing Gloria had connections and could design. Her kids were raised very strangely. They were not treated like they were wealthy, Anderson's older brother, Carter Vanderbilt Cooper, committed suicide on July 22, 1988, at age 23, by jumping from the 14th-floor terrace of Vanderbilt's New York City penthouse apartment I remember my family talking about how strange it was that his mother didn't seem very bothered by it.
Nice to hear Alan "Big Red" Kalter.
Turn the volume up and you can hear the director--probably leaking from a crew member's headset.
I sort of thought it was number 1 also. Yes, I knew it couldn't be Anderson, but number three sort of had "that look" too. But number one seemed to have the confidence and presence of someone who would be comfortable performing in front of people.
It's always funny having kids answer questions on TV shows. They're always brutally honest.
Now that's classic TV
What year is this episode from?
Season 1977 -1978
Nipsey Russell has more hair than when he appeared in the series "Car 54 Where Are You" several years before this. In that show, his hairline was far more receded. I wonder if he wore wiglets like Bing Crosby?
Did he say he goes to the Dalton school?
It's weird that all these future celebs in the entertainment industry first got their big breaks from these old game shows. All of which now makes me feel that none of this was just a coincidence; that the producers really intended to cherry pick "contestants" to bring on to the show who originally signed up for work in the entertainment business.
The uniform of #1 matched the adults in the video. Gave it away immediately.
Nipsey was hilarious ❤
I would have loved it if he said "My name Anderson Cooper. I'm 10 years old and I go to the Dalton School and I'm a Vanderbilt."
He’s so adorable
Kitty and Bill vote together they're usually correct!
I like him better as a kid.
Baby Bears? That's some Tiger King kind of sh@t there. Bad in retrospect.
10:49 - Anderson Cooper, the future CNN journalist.
I noticed that
CNN isn't journalism - at least not now.
@@robbernath Now that's what I called Before They Were Stars.
Anderson Cooper was great at saying that kid’s name. just by that, i’d’ve picked him :)
Even at a young age he had a very distinctive upper class accent
Oh my God, it's Alan Kalter! I loved you on Dave's Late Show!
When you see the video of the circus performing bears their trainors are wearing the same costume/color that contestant #1 was wearing ... & his demeanor was much more mature than the others ; Anderson was just smart & nervous * Those adults laughing at them were idiots and Nipsey was ahead of his time ...incredibly gifted & could have been a famous rapper *
and my mother is Gloria Vanderbilt.
They sort of give it away when they show the footage of the bear act and all their costumes are red, just like what contestant #1 is wearing (intentional or coincidence?).
If someone showed up at the airport in swimwear today TSA would have a field day!
They’d have fun with pat down.😉
I was just sure that Anderson Cooper was number 3. I was convinced that number 2 was the bear trainer, because he had so much confidence. The first boy didn't have much charisma, so I assumed he was not either the trainer or Anderson. But yes, pushing the other boy to go, that was certainly a good clue.
They said their names right from the start...Why would you think that?
No clue how they can do this to the bears. They don’t wanna live like that.
Nipsey 😂
Wally Naughton Jr... is he related to Cal?
#Talladega Nights
Aw, Anderson missed his cue at 4:48!
"journalist" 😂😂😂😂
Ba baba baa ba baaaaa doesn't that shit make you miss simplar times ,🥺😆😁
Number 1 had the uniform closest to what his parents wore! Style and color!
What a "blast from the past."
Alan Kalter was the announcer. He later worked with Letterman
And in the same studio. Those celebrity panel CBS game shows were taped on weekdays in the Ed Sullivan Theater where Letterman did his CBS show. My dad worked around the corner and I was often in attendance watching the tapings. The shows that go back to the early 50s like "What's My Line" were exceptions in the early years as I believe they were broadcast live.
He was cute then and extremely handsome now
I bet no one knew Anderson was the son of Gloria Vanderbilt.
He did a really good job.
You mean he's a star now??
poor bear
