Check Out Birthday Boy Anderson Cooper Before He Was a Silver Fox

Along with the throwback photo, the TV journalist wrote, "Thanks for all the lovely birthday wishes. My friend Andrea sent me this. Clearly taken a long, long time ago. Probably 1993." The photo appears to have been taken when Cooper was around 26, about four years after he graduated from Yale University.

Cooper, who has previously referred to himself as "pigment challenged," hasn't always been so keen on his signature style. During a 2012 episode of Watch What Happens Live!, Cooper talked to his best bud and almost-birthday twin, Andy Cohen, about his hair color landing him on People's grey-haired stars list.

"In my mind I still have salt-and-pepper hair, and there is no pepper left, it's all just salt," joked Cooper, who also gave his friend a birthday shout out yesterday.
