Wolf Blitzer Dances On "Ellen" (VIDEO)

Add Wolf Blitzer to the list.

The CNN anchor, who will host his final "Late Edition" this weekend with appearances from Dick Cheney and Nancy Pelosi, has danced with Ellen DeGeneres.

"If it's good enough for the President-Elect of the United States, I guess it's gotta be good enough for me," Blitzer told Jack Cafferty on "The Situation Room" Friday.

The appearance was taped Thursday and will air Monday on "Ellen."

Watch a preview:

Barack Obama appeared on "Ellen" twice, dancing first in October 2007 and then again in February 2008.

Blitzer's cable news colleague Chris Matthews is, of course, infamous for dancing on Ellen's show after he groped her and threw her to the ground during his appearance in March 2008. Matthews returned to "Ellen" in November, but refused to dance.

This is the most disturbing thing I have ever seen. And I think she picked that Flo Rida song on purpose to make Wolf look as awkward as possible. Mission Accomplished.

[Kaccey]

Oh I think he really wanted to cut loose.

[Smith808]

Does Cafferty ever genuinely smile?

[dlvme2]

That was cute. It is nice to see something lighthearted when the rest of the news has been pretty glum lately. It is also a reminder that everyone has something that is likable about them.

Wolfie has rhythm. I actually looked pretty hot! Never thought I'd be saying that....

Now that's change you can believe in....

[Rachael78]

wow. I thought I was the only one and it was my dirty secret. I can't stand Blitzer, but he looked a teeny tiny bit sexy. Eeeep! I said it.

[Dovescorner]

lol i hear ya! Wolf does look sexy dancing with Ellen

[Dupree]

Wolf looks darn cute and sexy dancing with all the rhythm of a soul man at heart. I actually enjoyed watching him dance that I played it several times (maybe I have issues?). It is nice to see someone who acts so "stiff" in their professional role...show a total different side of themselves. Go WOLF>>>GO and cut the rug and jammmmmm

[LeftLeaner]

Wolf, I didn't know you had it in you.

Good Job!

[Nick2]

He's cute! He's got great rhythm. He didn't make that face a lot of white guys make when they dance. Hee.

[LynnW49]

Wrong. Matthews did not "grope" Ellen. He tried to thwart her fall and his hands were near her breasts. You're trying to turn it into something it was not.

I expect more from HuffPost, but I don't get it.

[Kambriel2]

Now we have to be fair. He didn't intentionally grope her, in trying to save her fall he did get her breast in a yin-yang grasp. She fell when he realized it and she realized it and he let go.

What made it a 'grope-arama' was Ellen riding the incident in several other episodes, making fun for self-defense techniques, lots of teasing and other digs. Chris Matthews proved to be a good sport about it, and Ellen said so. They can laugh about it, so why shouldn't we.

Now if she'd only get Keith to come dance with her...I'm waiting for that...Or Rachel!! How cool would that be?

[preatorius]

The man has rhythm, and stays on beat. Thats what dancing is all about.
A+

[preatorius]

You are wrong , wrong , wrong!
Wolk Blitzer is a soul man from way back!
The man can dance!
SEXY!

[misty1]

I love to see ellen dance think of it a gay white woman with style and determination who can
bust a move. That's progress. Wolf needs lessions

[RODERICK098]

Maybe he has lesions.

[Oxfarm]

I love it. Years ago I saw my first Ellen show on a cross country flight, and the dancing bit really hooked me. It's actually a really fun ice breaker for the guest. I mean, who is in a bad mood after dancing?

Wolf was cute, trying to be so cool.

[GiannaX]

Hey, Wolf did get his groove on AND he didn't grope Ellen in the process. lol
Very cute. I look forward to watching the whole segment on Monday.

[JoeDoorman]

Shouldn't Blitzkrieg be on CNN shoveling propaganda down America's throat.
Oh yeah, things aren"t going his way right now, back to the song and dance.
