["python","iterator"]
One-liner to check whether an iterator yields at least one element?

Currently I'm doing this: try: something = next(iterator) # ... except StopIteration: # ... But I would like an expression that I can place inside a simple if statement. Is there anything built-in which would make this code look less clumsy? I only need to check for the first item.
if any(True for _ in iterator): print('iterator had at least one element') if all(False for _ in iterator): print('iterator was empty') Note that this will consume the first element of the iterable if it has at least one element.
