If you like your comedy with a healthy dose of snarking on celebrities, this week's Legend is right down your alley. Kathy Griffin likes to style herself as a "D-List" comic -- but one completely unafraid to share here thoughts. Coming out of the Groundlings improv company in the 1980s, Kathy rode her quick wit and self-described "potty mouth" to a stellar standup career and her own Bravo reality show (Life on the D-List), as well as several years co-hosting the CNN New Year's Eve show with Anderson Cooper. It all came to a screeching halt when she posted an inflammatory protest against then-President Trump in 2017 but over time she has rebuilt her career. That's great news for her fans, perhaps not so great news for celebrities with egos that need deflating! As always find extra clips below and thanks for sharing our shows!
Want more Kathy?
Kathy was initially a member of The Groundlings, but soon her standup comedy became her calling card. This early bit -- before her full celebrity trashing incarnation -- has a lot of fun and sharp slice of life comedy. https://youtu.be/3jZSDfYcQFE?si=aJPhIVIGfQsM1Ka7
Here's a fun sample of Kathy's standup show just before she started her Bravo show. Definitely NSFW, there is plenty of flame throwing "D-List" observations of "A-List" celebrities!https://youtu.be/JXGH1_3t4sU?si=K2_okjJnt6CDbu0E
After being shunned by networks and promoters after her Trump protest, Kathy eventually rebuilt her standup career -- though she picked up PTSD in the process. In true comic fashion she has incorporated some of the mean tweets she received into her act. https://youtu.be/TDA2NPwipgU?si=ifSdgQqIaaqYMHiz
