After Cohen recovered from his drunken rant, the host expressed he had just one regret, shading Ryan Seacrest.
The host appeared on SiriusXM show Radio Andy on January 3 and admitted that he should not have slammed the ABC broadcast and its host.
He claimed he liked Seacrest and explained he said those things in a drunken stupor.
During the New Year Eve show, Cohen shaded the American Idol host who hosted Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve for ABC from elsewhere in Times Square.
"If you look behind me, you'll see Ryan Seacrest's group of losers performing," said the drunken host and added that their competitor's show had nothing to offer.
The media personality also noted that the reaction to his commentary was blown out of proportion and hoped Seacrest heard his radio clip.
