Cojo -- Flamboyant Fashion Critic

This page acknowledges the wit, fun and humanity evidenced by Steven Cojokaru, aka Cojo, fashionista and former fashion critic for Entertainment Tonight and The Today Show.

How can you not love Steven Cojokaru, more commonly known as simply Cojo? He's cute. He's funny. He's devastatingly witty. Even when he says things that are well, sort of mean.... he does it with such a mischievous grin that even the target has to laugh and forgive him.

In case you don't know who Cojo is, he's the kooky fashion critic often appearing on Entertainment tonight. He's always on hand at the Emmys, the Academy Awards, the People's Choice Awards, the Golden Globes and probably every other celebrity award show. Name a celeb award night and you'll find Cojo, interviewing stars and deciding who will be on his Best Dressed and Worst Dressed List for the evening.

I wish I had many pictures of Cojo but I don't. Sadly, I don't travel in the circles that would let me take his photograph myself, and the ones I found on the web are marked All Rights Reserved. And before you suggest it, my budget for this article (zero) doesn't cover license fees.:-)

Okay, I think we will all agree that Cojo is wacky. But is he too wacky? Does he cross the line from wacky to weird?

In 2008, approximately, Cojo made an impassioned announcement on Entertainment Tonight, saying he suffered from kidney disease and desperately needed a transplant. His close friend donated the kidney for the first transplant, which later became infected with polyomavirus. It was removed A second kidney transplant used a kidney that Cojo's mother donated. At this writing, the transplant is still successful.

Cojo wrote a book about his experienced, entitled Glamour, Interrupted: How I Became the Best-Dressed Patient in Hollywood.
