Anderson Cooper, Kathy Griffin New Years Eve 2011 - Full Video

CNN's New Year's Eve special with Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin proved just as entertaining as years past. Though Griffin didn't drop the f-bomb or try to undress Cooper on air, she did attempt to humiliate her co-host in other ways.

When the show came back from a commercial break, Griffin appeared on air just in her bra. "Are you kidding me? Are you serious?" Cooper said. Griffin proceeded to dance around in her bra, and professed that she had a crush on CNN pundit David Gergen.

Another highlight of the evening occurred after CNN ran a clip of the Green Goblin from the Broadway show "Spider-Man" "hijacking" the New Year's Eve show and kidnapping Cooper. Cooper failed to reason with the Green Goblin, and was eventually saved by Spider-Man. "They need you back in Times Square," Spider-Man told Cooper after saving him.

The clip came, well, out of nowhere, and Griffin could not contain her obvious bewilderment. "I'm giving you the slow clap," Griffin said after the clip finished. "[Like] at the end of every high school football movie where the guy with one leg comes out and gets a touch down. I don't even know...I'm trying to follow the story line. Have you been abducted by a goblin?"

Los Angeles Car Arson Case: 'Person Of Interest' Detained (VIDEO)

Monday in the Los Angeles area, and a "person of interest" was taken into custody for questioning in connection with the dozens of suspicious car fires that have hit the city since last week.

The developments came a day after police distributed DVDs featuring footage of a man, between 20 and 30 years old with a receding hairline and a shoulder-length ponytail, whom they described as a person of interest. He was seen on grainy surveillance video Saturday after emerging on foot from inside an underground parking structure on Hollywood Boulevard where a car fire was reported.

Fire department spokesman Capt. Jaime Moore said he couldn't say whether the person of interest detained early Monday was the man seen on the video footage. "It's still too early to say whether or not this person has any direct correlation with the number of fires that we've been responding to this evening," Moore said.

No arrests had been made.

Early Monday, firefighters battled 12 suspected arson fires at carports and garages. Ten occurred in Los Angeles and two were in West Hollywood, Moore said. They broke out shortly after 1:30 a.m.

Moore said authorities believe the latest fires were connected to the earlier ones. The number of suspicious fires now stands at 55, he said.

Detectives spent Sunday analyzing security video camera footage and following up on other leads after a half dozen more vehicles were set on fire on New Year's Eve.
