Cookie Monster joined Eichner as he quizzed some of the Street’s famous residents using his unique interview tactics that fans of “Billy on the Street” will be familiar with.

A few weeks ago, in response to the Trump administration’s recent budget proposal — which suggests cuts in federal funding for “Sesame Street’s” network, PBS — Eichner sent out a tweet that contained the hashtag #JusticeForBigBird, and included a couple of photos featuring himself and then-First Lady Michelle Obama gallivanting with the big yellow guy.
It was recently anounced that Eichner will have a prominent role in the seventh season of “American Horror Story.”
