What enticed him to stay? Well, according to Broadcasting & Cable, which broke the news today:
According to industry sources, Cooper's old deal was worth in the neighborhood of $2 million a year and his new payday is more than double that amount.
Just to put it in perspective, that's about 2.5 million sessions with a Tier 1 Equinox personal trainer.
