I caught this really late last night on the repeat and just had to find the transcript. From Anderson Cooper 360:
It's hilarious.
COOPER: Well, since this story broke, it immediately began to take on elements of a circus. And, today, it seems, they sent in a clown, a man who calls himself Prince Frederick von Anhalt, the latest Mr. Zsa Zsa Gabor.
He held a news conference -- you saw part of it in Brooke's piece -- claiming he had an affair with Anna Nicole Smith and might just be the father of her baby. It was one of the stranger news conferences we have seen in recent months.
In case you missed it, here are some of the alleged prince's other words of wisdom.

VON ANHALT: When I'm with a woman, I don't ask, did you have an affair with somebody before me or what do you do after me? I don't ask that. I have fun. That's all, and out of it.

COOPER: Well, you can see why the ladies love him.
He also talked about why he liked Anna Nicole Smith.

VON ANHALT: She was a girl you could love. She was a girl, what men like, a little bit childish. Men like that. You know, I don't know if you guys like it. I like it. I like when a girl is a little childish. I love that.

COOPER: Well, make a note, ladies.
Finally, the alleged prince seemed to be a little childish -- childishly coy himself.

VON ANHALT: I'm married. I'm happily married. I love my wife. I don't go out on the air and my wife can see me on television and say: I have a child. I have a child here. I have a child there. You know, I screw around.
You know, I don't do that.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
COOPER: You know, no, he certainly would never do that. That's certainly not why he called a news conference today.
