A truly good friend would caution her about treating people so badly, even in jest. It just isn't funny, only cruel. She had seen the danger in past behavior yet chose to continue acting as she does. I do hope that she gets some real friends who are not afraid to tell her the truth about such things.
@@candice4855 Thank you! I have seen too many people who hold on to bitter feelings and use it in the guise of humor to lash out at other people, because they are not properly dealing with it. In her case, being a professional comedian, it is easy to exploit her problems in this manner to profit financially and professionally until pushed too far to be hidden within the humor anymore. I just do not understand how people can be so surprised that she received backlash for her behavior, that people can be so blind to the fact that we always reap what we sow, more than we sow, and later than we sow, just as Kathy did. I do hope that she recovers in every way.
@@jezra4427 That's true. Also men who don't fit the stereotypes of what is thought of as a "man" are treated like women - second class, such as how gay men and artsy men are treated badly all the time.
@Denise Higgins Sorry that happened to you. I have have a lot of depression. There are a lot of people who don't know what to say or how to empathize because they have low empathy. I have been lucky to have some very good people who have been supportive and loving. The ones who weren't, I have had to "unfriend" them. I truly believe those type of people are incapable of being authentic friends. I don't want them in my life. I'd rather have a couple people in my life than the ones who are just Fairweather friends.
This woman helped me so much when I was a teenager and learning to accept myself for who I am. Would’ve been devastated to have heard she committed suicide after helping me abstain from it in my darker years
I had never thought about it that way, but she was there when I was 17 and without friends, and watching her specials made me feel so happy, I learned and accepted so much about myself thanks to her and her stand-up specials and reality show. She’s important to me. Love her so much.
As someone whose attempted suicide, judgment from others to such an extreme could literally kill someone. cancel culture has become dangerous. It almost feels like an eye for an eye culture now. When we lack forgiveness and we discard people, there will be a dangerous ripple affect. I’m genuinely concerned about people justifying their harassment because someone said or did something that was ‘inappropriate’ Is our goal to drive people to suicide??? It’s become a disgusting society
turns out actions do have consequences. When you willingly put yourself in the spotlight your actions will be judged Don't act like this is anything deeper than what it is
@@hollyjay3628 people are so harsh when they can hide behind an online identity. But these are real people and the hate that is heaped upon them has real consequences.
@@hollyjay3628 No, people are frustrated that other people had their lives destroyed for a lot less. Some of it was from things being spun out of context or for words said a decade ago. Most of which probably don't have the financial gains to go to court. The whole world hates Trump, even when the picture came out. Yet people were still outraged. She needs to take accountability. Mind you, since day one I supported her right to post that picture. But she should have knew she would have lost friends, fans, and contracts. She isn't a Punk Rock star. She should have realized her demographic and how her demographic is the folk that get offended the most.
I attempted suicide in my past, but I promised myself that if I lived though it, I would do my best to make a positive contribution by making them laugh / trying to make people happy - life, friends, strangers... - at my expense, not at the expense of others. That doesn't appear to be what she's done. Folks aren't telling her to "jump," but if she decides to, that's her choice.
Her “friends” left when the going got hard (cough) Anderson Cooper etc, a friend stays and holds you up in the good and bad times. It is so painful to lose friends, when they turn their backs on you. It’s heartbreaking. But at least Kathy will now know who her friends are. Who she can rely and lean on. Wish her the best x
Yeah, I think when it comes to it people are weird or complex in general, you probably get better loyalty from an animal like a dog or cat.. humans are usually all for things that benefit them, people is drawn to hords but its only the benefit of it not the person per say, but still people in movies and social media live of that, can never end well in the long run, 😎
I am so relieved that your suicide attempt failed. A good friend took her own life not too long ago, and it’s an impossible thing to reconcile. Please know you are loved and valued and worthy of love and your life is important…even without your career. I love that you make us all laugh and I’m grateful, but you were also a fabulous daughter and a generous person to many. I wish nothing but the best for you wonderful woman, please try to be kind to yourself.
What a lovely, kind and thoughtful sentiment. I’m so, so sorry about your friend. I agree, it’s a blow to the gut to hear that someone you know has chosen their fate in such a way. Those personal thoughts and feelings can be well-hidden, a singular secret kept only to themselves for fear of judgment or simply shame. I dated someone in college who killed himself, and, yes, even these many years later it’s hard to believe he’s gone. I still don’t understand why he did it. Kathleen has made me truly laugh with her unique take on celebrity. I, too, am so happy to see her looking well and beautiful. We love you Kathy!
Sorry, but it didn't outrage me. I didn't find it objectional. It was so very clearly a political statement by a comedian. I'm still a bit shocked that it accelerated the way it did.
What she is experiencing is KARMA! Sorry she’s sick but wow… she was a terrible person and said and did nasty things about other people. How about some apologies???? Let’s start there Kathy and we’ll see how sorry we feel for you. There are lots of people out here sick in this world with no money and no resources. Let’s get real here!!!
@@meganmahoney5380 She doesn't owe you anything, least of all an apology. If you don't like her, don't watch her interviews. Seems simple enough. And she wasn't asking for your sympathy. Just stating facts: addicted to OTC drugs, attempted suicide, pulled out of it, sought treatment, now diagnosed with cancer. Grow up
Agreed. And i also wonder how much of it is an artists idea and you show up and just do it. It was not a big deal for me, fine if other people criticized it but it shouldn’t have ruined her career.
GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO EXCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE THE COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE... KEEP UR HEAD UP..
Seeing how she mocks god I’m sure he doesn’t care anymore. Bible is clear. He said he hated Esau but loved Jacob. Esau was a mocker and sold his birth right. So that means god doesn’t love everyone.
Love you Kathy! I hope your inspiring story will reach all those suffering from what you’ve been through. With fame and fortune you have a huge platform. I’m glad you’re using it! Thank you!
In the 1990's I produced a pilot for a show about soap operas, with Kathy as the host. She was amazing - not only talented but so down to earth and professional! I can not believe either of us is old enough for that to have been the 1990's. My fervent wish is that we both get much older.
Kathy was normal and *very* funny in the 90s and 00s but by 2013 she became more and more fame hungry, mean, not nearly as funnyand would do anything to stay in the spotlight and then the Trump incident backfired on her.
Had no idea! :( I saw her in person stand up and I LOVED IT she’s hilarious and loved her show too. I get her humor , and she’s brought joy to me many times from her comedy yet realism to a subject. She’s a part of our history, it’s not an easy position
I never really liked this woman but its amazing when you hear someones story that you realize you have more than a few things in common with them. Having been through some of those struggles i can really empathize and wish well in her recovery
I’m going to pray to Joan Rivers to come help her friend! Joan had some very low times and I think if Joan was still here, she would have already been the first to give support to Kathy! Joan never apologized for a joke and would never do so. We are living in another time but I hope Kathy is going to be ok. I love her!
LOVE Joan Rivers and wish she was still here too. I love that she never apologized, and survived her critics. I think the difference is she was like the female Don Rickles, people expected her to be as rude and crude as the men. She was a genius.
This lady's comedy got me through such a tough time. She's a HILARIOUS story teller. The picture stunt was not well thought out, but I respect her for taking a stand against someone she's known for years and knows is a doofus. I pray for her mental and physical health. I think she's going to have great success in the future if she can pull through. Thinking of you, Kathy. I love you.
You find her behavior acceptable because of your politics. I used to think Kathy was great, then she became bullying and hateful, and her career disappeared like a fart in the wind. She will never be relevant again.
@@jeffw1267 You guys are really obsessed with Griffin, dreaming to erase her from the map yet she's still here. You have to act delusional about her being over etc to keep going but basically y'all started a dumb game that she won.
@@jeffw1267it’s acceptable, because our constitution gives us free speech. I don’t agree with her political stance, but what happened to her was just plain wrong.
@@HSfox True but career wise it was not a smart thing to do. Even though I don’t condone violence like that, Trump is someone who on my opinion has brought that upon himself. But Anyways i still feel bad to her how she was blackballed completely, no wonder she just disappeared after a while
In what world is it ok to hold “bloody” decapitated head of a president of the United States, I don’t care who the president is.. and she expects sympathy??? And yet remains un-remorseful. I used to be a big fan of hers because she was the underdog but never gave up.. I wish her well but karma had everyone’s address
I don’t even know if it was so much for holding up the severed head, as it was her vindictive and vile comments to anyone who doesn’t agree with her. She seems to be very childish.
Karma is a bitch with a long memory and pretty much zero sympathy for any other crap you've been through, but all kinds for what you've caused. Good luck, Ms. Griffin. I hope being a classless, mean-spirited bitch was worth it.
Man did this message tell my story. I barely survived my brother’s suicide, and truthfully there are times I still fight it. His pain rolled downhill like a snowball that keeps growing and growing and getting faster and then hit me and the rest of my family. It never ever goes away. 9 years later and I just cried yesterday again. One of the ways I made it was watching the D List, Kathy’s talk show, read her books, listened to her Reading her books, u name it. I wish I could have helped Kathy like she helped me. I’m so glad she is still here, not for me as much as, for her family and close friends! Love ya Kathy!!
Jesus. Talk about hitting rock bottom. She’s a real survivor who went through hell and, amazingly, came through it. I’m sure every day’s still a struggle, but so much respect for her perseverance. Also, shame on the people who went after her family members. And extra shame on the friends who fled.
This was a side of her we haven’t seen in a while. She was very calm, peaceful, and healthy with some weight back on. She looked amazing. I wish her recovery in her addiction and from cancer. Love you Kathleen! ❤️
@@janetmcarthur5257 I love all those things! Based on your other vile RUclips comments insulting people’s body types and defending the insurrection on the Capitol, you are clearly a miserable and disgraceful human being. Sucks to be you!
Cancel culture sucks, but honestly she took a couple months off, then started her "comeback tour" then attacks a woman in the street, then, a tell all documentary. She milked that didnt she
Why do you feel bad for her? nothing happened to her she didnt do to herself? This is bullshit she did a terrible thing and she payed the price like we all have to. Dumb dumb dumb
You will never change in my eyes Kathy! You’re a hard worker and you just did what so many were thinking. You’re a pioneer! Keep going! Sending you so much love!!!!!! 💕💕💕💕💕
I hope surgery, and any other treatments, go perfect and Kathy gets better quickly. Addiction, suicide attempt, and cancer are no frickin joke. I'm glad she is sharing her battles. I send her best wishes.
She's a genius. Went on a harassment campaign trying to get progressives to doxx and harass children even after she knew the children were innocent. Then completely washed her hands of it by telling a sob story about addiction and harassment and leaving out the fact that she started the whole mess.
My god. I'm a big Kathy fan. Until now I never knew this is how bad it got for her. Hearing this, I just feel incredible sadness... Kathy has brightened so many of my days. I don't care what the circumstances are: nobody ever deserves to go through this much. That stupid photo was artistic expression and supposed to be a metaphor for something 45 said. How it's completely unravelled into almost destroying this woman's life is absolutely unthinkable and appalling, FAR more so than that photo. I hope she stays strong and perseveres. ❤️
Bless. She's been thru such a brutal time. I'm really not surprised to hear that she suffered so deeply & was suicidal. Losing her "friends" had to have been beyond traumatic. I've always applauded her honesty and forthright nature. I'm so happy she wasn't successful in her attempt to leave this world. I'm enormously gratified to hear that her husband is so loyal and supportive. Speaking from experience, that makes a big difference. I do hope she will be happy and at peace going forward. Bless
I agree. Losing friends and family 👪 is very very traumatic. Her so called friends were actually conditional friends. It reminds me of the Jehovah's Witness organization. The GB of that religious culture, shun people when they make mistakes and your entire social network within this culture turns against you when you are shunned. A great many of people have committed suicide, in this organization. Child SEXUAL ABUSE is also a major problem that the leaders cover up. The Australian Royal Commission case #29 proves this. It took place in 2015. The whole culture of Jehovah's Witnesses are brainwashed and are in a DOOMSDAY CULT.
@@Kiss_lynda I agree....to a point. I don't think she had any idea how that "Trump head" skit would be received. I DO think that shunning her completely was way too harsh. Anyone in the public eye that does anything subversive should expect some backlash. I just think this was too extreme.
@RN RN If she is lying ...its very sad that she would have to do that.😔...bottom line, you never know what someone is going through. Let's have more compassion and stop being so critical of each other and judgemental. Evidently she has challenges. Like we all do.
@RN RNOk. But remember, God said in his word the Bible that there will be a resurrection of the righteous and unrighteous. So, its God's decision to determine who rinders that kind of judgment. There are a lot of people in this world that have done very serious bad things. Hitler, was very bad & definitely demonic for what he did. As well the Assyrians on how 🤔 they did people even how they killed them. They were known for their cruelty and brutality. I not saying two wrongs make a right but we don't really know these people, we just see or witness an action. We have all errored and are imperfect. And some people do things like Kathy and don't APOLOGIZE. Coumo...the new York mayor apologized for his wayward disrespectful actions towards women and came to the conclusion to resign. Now whether it was a dishonest apology or not, we have to remember that we can not read hearts. Only God can. But one thing I can say about him is that all these other high profile, high position idiots that defile women and disregard, and disrespect them have not even given an apology to the victims. A struggling person is not a bad person. Jesus talked so much about forgiving one another and sometimes we can't even forgive ourselves. I truly appreciate your perspective and your voice and opinion on how 🤔 you feel, and I respect that. I just know that some folks are very slow learners and when egos get in the way, that's where they Etched, God, Out= E.G O....all we can do is pray. Even the Bible tells us to pray for our enemies.
So, Trump actually saved her life. She didn't know she had an addiction until she f' upped with that picture she took! She should send The Don some flowers.
That comic "stunt" she pulled with the severed head killed her career. I mean imagine some comic taking a pic like that with an Obama look alike. "Oh, it's just comedy. It's suppose to be funny." No, it's not. She crossed the line and now is paying the consequences. What did she think was going to happen? It's called Karma.
It would be a horrible thing to do to anyone. I guess she really hated Trump but still that's disgusting to depict an image of such gruesome violence towards anyone
I’m a republican but I love Kathy. That’s her opinion. Can’t hate people because they think differently then yourself about some issues. Her ASAP Rocky interview was so funny.
She took it too far, thinking she could politicize her routine with a severed head. Must have forgotten that a few years earlier severed heads, courtesy of ISIS, were horrifying people, not amusing them.
What Kathy did with that bloody head was Despicable. She should be ashamed of herself but she's not. I think she's crude and rude and not funny at all. She's aggressive and a bully
Its sad that you have to go through something so difficult to figure out who your true friends really are. For those who said they were her friend were actually really selfish and childish and even though its hard in the moment, you will come out of it a better person as you shed all that extra dead weight
I love Kathy Griffin. If she were a man, she would NEVER get the kind of hate that she does. She’s unapologetic and bold in a American society that doesn’t value free speech anymore (if it ever did). I may not agree with all of her political beliefs but I was raised to believe that everyone has the right to their own opinion. Stifling someone’s opinion is dangerous. I’ve seen her stand up with my mom and we both adore her. Sending lots of love and support to Kathy 💖
If she had 2mg Valium pills for example, they're INCREDIBLY small and light. 100 in a bottle. If your body is used to a large amount already and you get medical treatment fairly soon, you can potentially survive since so many sleeping and pain pills are gradual release. It's when people crush them that it's very difficult to save someone because of how quickly it hits the bloodstream.
So she’s upset people turned her back on her because of the Trump photo? She jumps on the hating Trump bandwagon but she can’t handle it when people hate on her the same way people hate on him? I bet she loves when him and his family get death threats but it’s too much for her? The irony…
This breaks my heart. I hope Kathy knows how much she has given to the world and I hope she knows how valuable she is. As someone who has attempted to commit suicide, I learned how short and valuable life truly is. Take some time Kathy, heal yourself and know life is what you make of it, it’s not what happens to you that defines you, but how you respond to it; you are worthy and valuable and I hope you come back stronger than ever and bring the laugh and joy to the people again, I am rooting for you.
I had no idea that it got *THAT BAD* for Kathy. I have so much love and admiration for her. I have grown up watching her for decades. I’m so proud that she survived and she’s still fighting. I certainly empathize with her for almost giving up. ♥️
Well I'm halfway through the video and obviously she has not changed a bit she is still rude rough and inconsiderate she is not Joan Rivers funny at all Whether you like trump or you don't is irrelevant he is still a human being he is a father a grandfather and a husband. It's one thing to make a few lines and let it go but her chasing down a guy down the street is ridiculous. And it's not funny. Don't the woke people call that bullying?
Never been a fan of hers, don't care for her personality. However, I'm wishing her the best, so glad she's getting the help she needs. Also, I'm so sorry for the pain she had that caused her to attempt suicide.
She was an evil witch. She is getting back what she put out into the universe. It's called KARMA Cindy Foster. Recognize her name and learn how to play her game so all ends well 4 U. Have nice day hun.
She had horrible judgment and paid for it. She only proved my point in never liking her. Sorry people drove her to this, but she had to have known that she was pushing things too far.
Me too... never care about her. The thing is... I cannot say: "Oh poor her..." because I'm a recovering drug addict and my story is 10 times worse than hers. And the story of some of my friends are 10 times worse than mine... I lost friends. Money. Health. Etc... it's not a competition but what I mean is she's not the only one who's having such many hard battles and we ALL are survivors of trauma and mental health issues... so... I don't feel sorry for her. I never like her kind of humour and I think she made bad choices and decisions in her life but come on... to say that your addiction begin to be worse because of the Trump administration...!?! Come on now! Take responsability for what you do and say in life and face de consequences... BUT... as a recovering drug addict myself, I wish her a lot of joy and health and a long time life recovery. If she's doing the work and learn from her mistakes, like we do... I respect her for that. God bless, 🙏🌟🙏
She wanted to inflict harm on the Covington kids without knowing the full story.. What kind of human are you who would do this. No one wishes her this diagnosis but don't treat her like a victim..she is a soul less cruel self absorbed person
Right, even after all the other footage came out of the black Hebrew Israelites and the old Indian harassing the kids she still kept calling for people to post their names and addresses. Then has the nerve to cry about people who posted hers as a response. And when people showed up and started harassing her she still blamed everyone else.
I've supported this Lady from Day 1. I've never stopped. I won't stop. I even wrote her a long letter after the infamous photo to come work for her -- for free. Never heard back. She got a bad rap for the same thing a lot of people were feeling. I hope she survives this and thrives. The world needs more women like her. ❤
She got “democrated” by those that often remain silent and now using every trick to get out of the hole she’s in. Ppl vote with their opinions as apparently she thinks she can unfiltered. Stop with the faux victim, you reap what you sow.
@@a.j.patron9214 WHERE HAVE WE HEARD THAT BEFORE? FROM ALL THE WHINY LIBTURDS WHINING ABOUT "SYSTEMIC RACISM" AND "WHITE PRIVILEGE." STHU LIBTURD AND SIT DOWN
I am not a fan of hers I don't think she's very tasteful or very funny so it's probably better she is out of that business as we all know it's very artificial and also very Is hypocritical in so many ways. I have walked in her shoes though and I feel for her and will pray for her as a human being that she continues on the path of recovery. Maybe this go around she'll try to vote for trump
I've watched this video several times. I definitely think the loss of her mom was a huge factor. If she tried to commit suicide in June 2020, that's three months after Maggie passed. She was without a doubt struggling with losing her, as anyone who is as close to their mother as she was would. That's another big reason why I feel for her.
@@Pancakeshouse85 Oh, I didn’t know her mom died! She was so funny on Kathy’s show years ago, and you could tell they loved each other so much. My mom and I were best friends, and I still grieve for her…my mom died in 2012.
@@kathleenwyatt563 I'm so sorry to hear that. I sincerely think that was a big factor in Kathy's deteriorating mental health. I hope she's reached the other side and has gotten better now.
@@Pancakeshouse85 Thank you for the kind words, and I wouldn’t be surprised either if Kathy’s illness was exacerbated by losing her mom. Such terrible pain.

@@remmary100 just know if your teachable then a new way is learnable. Selfish place is recovery i had to make it every choice about my safety and set boundaries that helps ... Detox is a deadly game if no help is involved.
"I was convinced someone was gonna harm me or jump me" Proceeds to chase a man and woman down the street cursing at them because the woman said "We love Trump." Gotcha 🙄 I don't like to hear about people attempting suicide, I have struggled with my own issues in that regard a few times in my life, but I don't feel sorry for her, she helped lay the groundwork of the cancel culture society, and like most people who do that, they forget that we are all human and therefore flawed so eventually at some point, they fall on the swords they set up for others. I used to be a fan of her, she was funny and I would always watch her shows but she lost me as a fan during the Trump presidency. I didn't then and I still don't agree with people being labeled awful things because of a vote. Alot of these celebrities lost their damn minds and some of them are still on a tangent. I am very over celebrities, they are not people I feel who should be allowed to deem themselves our moral compass nor should they be those we look up to, alot of them are putting on an act anyways, I mean look at this situation, she made a mistake and people who she thought were close friends didn't speak to her again, they are not these supportive rocks for people they claim to be, they are all so very fake. I mean these people tell you to stop speaking to your family if they support someone politically, telling them to be horrible to their families and cut them off because of who they voted for, and she's suprised they treated her like she was a plague, I'm not. I do wish her the best with her cancer diagnosis.
Calling someone out who yelled at you in public is not the same as death threats and harassing someone's sister who's dying in the hospital. Nowhere close.
I can’t say I’ve been a fan of Kathy’s but I do like some of her comedy to a certain extent. As a recovering addict myself, I knew she was addicted to pills when I watched her on an episode of The Wendy Williams Show a few years ago. Like they say, takes one to one. Everything about the way she carried herself on that episode was very clear to me that she was on something. For those who don’t know about addictions it might not be easy to spot but once you’ve been in those shoes, you can spot an addict from a mile away. You can tell she is no longer abusing pills, she even looks a bit younger. Hope she continues to do better.
Not a fan of hers at all. However, I certainly don't take pleasure in hearing about her current health issues. I pray that God helps clear the bitterness that is surrounding her and blesses her with recovery from her illness and that she allows God to guide her in the right direction. So that she can be a strong witness to what God is able to do.
Puleez, STOP with the God stuff. Worship whatever if the many Gods out there as it is a free country and is your right ... just keep your religion to yourself
@@seattlejayde he or she has the freedom of speech to express their love for God and Jesus right here just like you have the right to not believe or receive it. And, respectfully, if you don't like it, then don't read it and move on. Don't go around giving people orders learn to be respectful and agree to disagree.
I feel bad for her, however, she seems like the kind of person that went around hitting people with a sledgehammer and then became a delicate flower when the inevitable blowback came. I’m glad to see her doing better.
We love you Kathy, Social media and drugs ahs killed waaaaay to many Americans. We all make mistakes but I couldn't imagine dealing with worldwide backlash, That takes a strong person; And then to get Cancer after beating the addiction? WOW!
@Defenestrate I think we should still pray for her. Pray that the Lord moves something in her. My brother always tells me, I don’t believe in your boloney so keep it to yourself, but I always say I’m still going to pray that the Good Lord reveals himself to you, and brings you back, no matter what you think brother I love you ,and I won’t stop praying for you….. Think about it. If we don’t pray for them, who will?
It is so easy for pills, alcohol, and drugs to become a coping mechanism in place of prayer, exercise, and other positive forms of emotion management. We are in your corner Kathy and grateful that you are getting well.
You really missed the mark with your comment as it comes off very ignorant and you made it about yourself. Not everyone is religious, especially Kathy, as she has made it known she is Atheist. Just remember that what you may think is easy to choose one thing over another, that usually isnt the case. If youve never had an addiction to substances than you wouldnt know how hard it actually is to choose what you call easy
@@asmrp2p903 are you kidding me? We are all prone to addictions and my comment was simply empathizing with her and the plight that we all face. We all have to fight to maintain healthy coping mechanisms.
So glad I'm not part of the celebrity world, they have major mental problems compared to the rest of the country. I'm just thankful that I am a conservative with traditional values and not associated with liberals or the woke mob or cancel culture. I'm still living like it's the 1990s, having fun with my simple, content life. It seems like the musicians, actresses and other celebrities are all just a mess. I'd choose my private - small life over fame and fortune any day. The things that Hollywood is involved in is just not in alignment with my values.
When I was 20 years old, I was approached by a playboy scout to do a Playboy video. This was in the early 1990s. I didn’t want to do nudity and I told him no, and he said just come to one party in and check it out and make your decision. I went to the Playboy mansion for one party and the drugs and depravity that I saw there shook me to my core and I never looked back. Hollywood is truly sick. There are many pedophiles in Hollywood as well. I have realized that many of these people have sick and twisted childhoods, and so they fall prey and are easy victims for this type of lifestyle.
If you're not angry with Trump there's something matter with you the man tried to blow up the capital killed 500,000 people because of his own ego racial divide do I have to go on?
As long as you hate or upset God you will always be in misery. Can't live for the world and not for God. Obsessive Alcohol drinking, partying and cursing others instead of helping isn't a way of life.
It was not but the media had to throw her under the bus even though everyone was ok with it. We have seen Obama made fun of, burn in effigy and even worst. Wish they had been more like the right wing media, they would double down on that and if you question them, they immediately remind you what the other side does it up to. You fight fire with fire.
I love Kathy Griffin more than anything saw her live on Broadway. New York was so excited she got a very very royal deal and I have people in recovery and NA and AA. I’ve been in the Naren on fellowship and the Al-Anon fellowship and you go Kathie my prayers are with you.
They weren't your friends to begin with Kathy, if they stop talking to you just because you got bad press for a stupid photo.... They were concerned only about their careers!!!! They were not your friends!
The world would be a poorer place without Kathy Griffin. Being able to make millions cry with laughter is a gift…..and that’s the gift she keeps giving.
@@alantinoalantonio I am not one to judge. I may be opinionated politically on Twitter and I keep learning the more critical I am the more I learn I have my own "stuff" to work on. Basically, I have a lifetime of stuff to work on.
@Mike M I am personally working on judging less and leading with love first. Appreciate Kathy sharing. We are so polarized politically and we don't have to be. We can lead with love and have respectful debates. Just like high school students in speech and debate. I am not perfect on the respectful debates but I am working on it!
I'm so shocked by her drug addiction and cancer diagnosis. I would've never guessed she was using drugs. I'm going through the same thing right now and to know she is too makes me feel not alone. I can't wait for her comeback. Love ya, Kathy!!!!
A friend runs in when everyone else runs out. Actually, it's healthy for Kathy to find out who her friends are. Now she knows.
Yup, and One of the realest lessons.
A truly good friend would caution her about treating people so badly, even in jest. It just isn't funny, only cruel. She had seen the danger in past behavior yet chose to continue acting as she does. I do hope that she gets some real friends who are not afraid to tell her the truth about such things.
@@ThundermansThunder bravo!
Best thing that ever happened to me
@@candice4855 Thank you! I have seen too many people who hold on to bitter feelings and use it in the guise of humor to lash out at other people, because they are not properly dealing with it. In her case, being a professional comedian, it is easy to exploit her problems in this manner to profit financially and professionally until pushed too far to be hidden within the humor anymore. I just do not understand how people can be so surprised that she received backlash for her behavior, that people can be so blind to the fact that we always reap what we sow, more than we sow, and later than we sow, just as Kathy did. I do hope that she recovers in every way.
People who don't support you even in a bad time aren't your friends! Friends will help you even if you make a mistake.
Women in male dominant career fields get critiqued much more than men. What she did never warranted all the murderous hate she got.
@@jezra4427 That's true. Also men who don't fit the stereotypes of what is thought of as a "man" are treated like women - second class, such as how gay men and artsy men are treated badly all the time.
Problem is she turned her back on her friends many times.All her Hollywood friends disowned her,even CNN
@@eddiebarrera469 It seemed she was very loyal to Anderson Cooper, but he was quick to stop being her friend. Brooke Shields remained her friend.
@Denise Higgins Sorry that happened to you. I have have a lot of depression. There are a lot of people who don't know what to say or how to empathize because they have low empathy. I have been lucky to have some very good people who have been supportive and loving. The ones who weren't, I have had to "unfriend" them. I truly believe those type of people are incapable of being authentic friends. I don't want them in my life. I'd rather have a couple people in my life than the ones who are just Fairweather friends.
This woman helped me so much when I was a teenager and learning to accept myself for who I am. Would’ve been devastated to have heard she committed suicide after helping me abstain from it in my darker years
I had never thought about it that way, but she was there when I was 17 and without friends, and watching her specials made me feel so happy, I learned and accepted so much about myself thanks to her and her stand-up specials and reality show. She’s important to me. Love her so much.
@@themarquis336 same here
Same for me.
Did she teach you to hate white people and the president also? While praising China?
@@MrMuaythai84 how weird that this is your response to saying someone helped stop them from committing suicide.
As someone whose attempted suicide, judgment from others to such an extreme could literally kill someone. cancel culture has become dangerous. It almost feels like an eye for an eye culture now. When we lack forgiveness and we discard people, there will be a dangerous ripple affect. I’m genuinely concerned about people justifying their harassment because someone said or did something that was ‘inappropriate’
Is our goal to drive people to suicide??? It’s become a disgusting society
turns out actions do have consequences.
When you willingly put yourself in the spotlight your actions will be judged
Don't act like this is anything deeper than what it is
@@samuelhutchins7421 so her feeling suicidal is what she deserves??
@@hollyjay3628 people are so harsh when they can hide behind an online identity. But these are real people and the hate that is heaped upon them has real consequences.
@@hollyjay3628 No, people are frustrated that other people had their lives destroyed for a lot less. Some of it was from things being spun out of context or for words said a decade ago. Most of which probably don't have the financial gains to go to court.
The whole world hates Trump, even when the picture came out. Yet people were still outraged. She needs to take accountability.
Mind you, since day one I supported her right to post that picture. But she should have knew she would have lost friends, fans, and contracts. She isn't a Punk Rock star. She should have realized her demographic and how her demographic is the folk that get offended the most.
I attempted suicide in my past, but I promised myself that if I lived though it, I would do my best to make a positive contribution by making them laugh / trying to make people happy - life, friends, strangers... - at my expense, not at the expense of others. That doesn't appear to be what she's done. Folks aren't telling her to "jump," but if she decides to, that's her choice.
Her “friends” left when the going got hard (cough) Anderson Cooper etc, a friend stays and holds you up in the good and bad times. It is so painful to lose friends, when they turn their backs on you. It’s heartbreaking. But at least Kathy will now know who her friends are. Who she can rely and lean on. Wish her the best x
Yeah, I think when it comes to it people are weird or complex in general, you probably get better loyalty from an animal like a dog or cat.. humans are usually all for things that benefit them, people is drawn to hords but its only the benefit of it not the person per say, but still people in movies and social media live of that, can never end well in the long run, 😎
He chose to protect his livelihood, understandably, like most people would.
She’s a really terrible person, and she knows it.
Sometimes the best thing a friend can do is abandon you. Especially if you're basically normalizing murder and violence against half the country.
Most people's friends are not really their friends, they're just people they know.
I am so relieved that your suicide attempt failed. A good friend took her own life not too long ago, and it’s an impossible thing to reconcile. Please know you are loved and valued and worthy of love and your life is important…even without your career. I love that you make us all laugh and I’m grateful, but you were also a fabulous daughter and a generous person to many. I wish nothing but the best for you wonderful woman, please try to be kind to yourself.
What a lovely, kind and thoughtful sentiment.
I’m so, so sorry about your friend. I agree, it’s a blow to the gut to hear that someone you know has chosen their fate in such a way. Those personal thoughts and feelings can be well-hidden, a singular secret kept only to themselves for fear of judgment or simply shame.
I dated someone in college who killed himself, and, yes, even these many years later it’s hard to believe he’s gone. I still don’t understand why he did it.
Kathleen has made me truly laugh with her unique take on celebrity. I, too, am so happy to see her looking well and beautiful. We love you Kathy!
too bad she didnt follow thru
@@marchayburn2617too bad you didn't.
Sorry, but it didn't outrage me. I didn't find it objectional. It was so very clearly a political statement by a comedian. I'm still a bit shocked that it accelerated the way it did.
What she is experiencing is KARMA! Sorry she’s sick but wow… she was a terrible person and said and did nasty things about other people. How about some apologies????

@@meganmahoney5380 She doesn't owe you anything, least of all an apology. If you don't like her, don't watch her interviews. Seems simple enough. And she wasn't asking for your sympathy.

@@pattykelly6621 get real! I don’t need an apology but a ton of other people do. And no, I don’t watch her LOL
And please remember we are “all entitled to our own beliefs”
Agreed. And i also wonder how much of it is an artists idea and you show up and just do it. It was not a big deal for me, fine if other people criticized it but it shouldn’t have ruined her career.
GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO EXCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE THE COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE... KEEP UR HEAD UP..

Keep coming back!
Seeing how she mocks god I’m sure he doesn’t care anymore. Bible is clear. He said he hated Esau but loved Jacob. Esau was a mocker and sold his birth right. So that means god doesn’t love everyone.
Accept

Love you Kathy! I hope your inspiring story will reach all those suffering from what you’ve been through. With fame and fortune you have a huge platform. I’m glad you’re using it! Thank you!
In the 1990's I produced a pilot for a show about soap operas, with Kathy as the host. She was amazing - not only talented but so down to earth and professional! I can not believe either of us is old enough for that to have been the 1990's. My fervent wish is that we both get much older.
My friend met her a few years ago and they also said she was extremely down to earth and nice!
Kathy was normal and *very* funny in the 90s and 00s but by 2013 she became more and more fame hungry, mean, not nearly as funnyand would do anything to stay in the spotlight and then the Trump incident backfired on her.
@@patr70 I agree. I lost respect for her when she said she wouldnt take Joans job and then DID.
I love her work ethic.
Had no idea! :( I saw her in person stand up and I LOVED IT she’s hilarious and loved her show too. I get her humor , and she’s brought joy to me many times from her comedy yet realism to a subject. She’s a part of our history, it’s not an easy position
I never really liked this woman but its amazing when you hear someones story that you realize you have more than a few things in common with them. Having been through some of those struggles i can really empathize and wish well in her recovery
I’m going to pray to Joan Rivers to come help her friend! Joan had some very low times and I think if Joan was still here, she would have already been the first to give support to Kathy! Joan never apologized for a joke and would never do so. We are living in another time but I hope Kathy is going to be ok. I love her!
@Tom Edwards obviously 🙄
LOVE Joan Rivers and wish she was still here too. I love that she never apologized, and survived her critics. I think the difference is she was like the female Don Rickles, people expected her to be as rude and crude as the men. She was a genius.
Joan Rivers right before she went to have her operation accused Michelle Obama of being a man..That may have done her in.. She always spoke the truth.
Yess I remember that ! That was strange timing forsuree

This lady's comedy got me through such a tough time. She's a HILARIOUS story teller. The picture stunt was not well thought out, but I respect her for taking a stand against someone she's known for years and knows is a doofus. I pray for her mental and physical health. I think she's going to have great success in the future if she can pull through. Thinking of you, Kathy. I love you.
You find her behavior acceptable because of your politics. I used to think Kathy was great, then she became bullying and hateful, and her career disappeared like a fart in the wind. She will never be relevant again.

@@MissSusan1 I would've double down. tRump is a disgusting pig and his followers have said worst things about the Obama's.

In what world is it ok to hold “bloody” decapitated head of a president of the United States, I don’t care who the president is.. and she expects sympathy??? And yet remains un-remorseful. I used to be a big fan of hers because she was the underdog but never gave up.. I wish her well but karma had everyone’s address
I don’t even know if it was so much for holding up the severed head, as it was her vindictive and vile comments to anyone who doesn’t agree with her. She seems to be very childish.
Karma is a bitch with a long memory and pretty much zero sympathy for any other crap you've been through, but all kinds for what you've caused. Good luck, Ms. Griffin. I hope being a classless, mean-spirited bitch was worth it.
Man did this message tell my story. I barely survived my brother’s suicide, and truthfully there are times I still fight it. His pain rolled downhill like a snowball that keeps growing and growing and getting faster and then hit me and the rest of my family. It never ever goes away. 9 years later and I just cried yesterday again. One of the ways I made it was watching the D List, Kathy’s talk show, read her books, listened to her Reading her books, u name it. I wish I could have helped Kathy like she helped me. I’m so glad she is still here, not for me as much as, for her family and close friends! Love ya Kathy!!
Jesus. Talk about hitting rock bottom. She’s a real survivor who went through hell and, amazingly, came through it. I’m sure every day’s still a struggle, but so much respect for her perseverance. Also, shame on the people who went after her family members. And extra shame on the friends who fled.

She is definitely a strong woman!
@Mike SandersNo. YOU do.
What? Kathy doesn’t have lung cancer. She’s gonna be on another show. You’ll see
She's a genius. Went on a harassment campaign trying to get progressives to doxx and harass children even after she knew the children were innocent. Then completely washed her hands of it by telling a sob story about addiction and harassment and leaving out the fact that she started the whole mess.
This woman is pure evil. No one will pity her except Demon-rats. Did you see what she did to Donald Trump?
My god. I'm a big Kathy fan. Until now I never knew this is how bad it got for her. Hearing this, I just feel incredible sadness... Kathy has brightened so many of my days. I don't care what the circumstances are: nobody ever deserves to go through this much. That stupid photo was artistic expression and supposed to be a metaphor for something 45 said. How it's completely unravelled into almost destroying this woman's life is absolutely unthinkable and appalling, FAR more so than that photo. I hope she stays strong and perseveres. ❤️
Bless. She's been thru such a brutal time. I'm really not surprised to hear that she suffered so deeply & was suicidal. Losing her "friends" had to have been beyond traumatic. I've always applauded her honesty and forthright nature. I'm so happy she wasn't successful in her attempt to leave this world. I'm enormously gratified to hear that her husband is so loyal and supportive. Speaking from experience, that makes a big difference. I do hope she will be happy and at peace going forward. Bless
I agree. Losing friends and family 👪 is very very traumatic. Her so called friends were actually conditional friends. It reminds me of the Jehovah's Witness organization. The GB of that religious culture, shun people when they make mistakes and your entire social network within this culture turns against you when you are shunned. A great many of people have committed suicide, in this organization. Child SEXUAL ABUSE is also a major problem that the leaders cover up. The Australian Royal Commission case #29 proves this. It took place in 2015. The whole culture of Jehovah's Witnesses are brainwashed and are in a DOOMSDAY CULT.
😂 she brings it on herself.
@@Kiss_lynda I agree....to a point. I don't think she had any idea how that "Trump head" skit would be received. I DO think that shunning her completely was way too harsh. Anyone in the public eye that does anything subversive should expect some backlash. I just think this was too extreme.
@RN RN If she is lying ...its very sad that she would have to do that.😔...bottom line, you never know what someone is going through. Let's have more compassion and stop being so critical of each other and judgemental. Evidently she has challenges. Like we all do.
@RN RNOk. But remember, God said in his word the Bible that there will be a resurrection of the righteous and unrighteous. So, its God's decision to determine who rinders that kind of judgment. There are a lot of people in this world that have done very serious bad things. Hitler, was very bad & definitely demonic for what he did. As well the Assyrians on how 🤔 they did people even how they killed them. They were known for their cruelty and brutality. I not saying two wrongs make a right but we don't really know these people, we just see or witness an action. We have all errored and are imperfect. And some people do things like Kathy and don't APOLOGIZE. Coumo...the new York mayor apologized for his wayward disrespectful actions towards women and came to the conclusion to resign. Now whether it was a dishonest apology or not, we have to remember that we can not read hearts. Only God can. But one thing I can say about him is that all these other high profile, high position idiots that defile women and disregard, and disrespect them have not even given an apology to the victims. A struggling person is not a bad person. Jesus talked so much about forgiving one another and sometimes we can't even forgive ourselves. I truly appreciate your perspective and your voice and opinion on how 🤔 you feel, and I respect that. I just know that some folks are very slow learners and when egos get in the way, that's where they Etched, God, Out= E.G
O....all we can do is pray. Even the Bible tells us to pray for our enemies.
I hope she finds the light her soul deserves 🙏 ;
she deserves what she sows !
So, Trump actually saved her life. She didn't know she had an addiction until she f' upped with that picture she took! She should send The Don some flowers.
That comic "stunt" she pulled with the severed head killed her career. I mean imagine some comic taking a pic like that with an Obama look alike. "Oh, it's just comedy. It's suppose to be funny." No, it's not. She crossed the line and now is paying the consequences. What did she think was going to happen? It's called Karma.
Oooooh, if that was done with obama? Hell to pay!!!!!
It would be a horrible thing to do to anyone. I guess she really hated Trump but still that's disgusting to depict an image of such gruesome violence towards anyone
I’m a republican but I love Kathy. That’s her opinion. Can’t hate people because they think differently then yourself about some issues. Her ASAP Rocky interview was so funny.

I love Kathy Griffin. If she were a man, she would NEVER get the kind of hate that she does. She’s unapologetic and bold in a American society that doesn’t value free speech anymore (if it ever did). I may not agree with all of her political beliefs but I was raised to believe that everyone has the right to their own opinion. Stifling someone’s opinion is dangerous. I’ve seen her stand up with my mom and we both adore her. Sending lots of love and support to Kathy 💖

If she had 2mg Valium pills for example, they're INCREDIBLY small and light. 100 in a bottle. If your body is used to a large amount already and you get medical treatment fairly soon, you can potentially survive since so many sleeping and pain pills are gradual release. It's when people crush them that it's very difficult to save someone because of how quickly it hits the bloodstream.

So she’s upset people turned her back on her because of the Trump photo? She jumps on the hating Trump bandwagon but she can’t handle it when people hate on her the same way people hate on him? I bet she loves when him and his family get death threats but it’s too much for her? The irony…

This breaks my heart. I hope Kathy knows how much she has given to the world and I hope she knows how valuable she is. As someone who has attempted to commit suicide, I learned how short and valuable life truly is. Take some time Kathy, heal yourself and know life is what you make of it, it’s not what happens to you that defines you, but how you respond to it; you are worthy and valuable and I hope you come back stronger than ever and bring the laugh and joy to the people again, I am rooting for you.

I am not a fan of hers I don't think she's very tasteful or very funny so it's probably better she is out of that business as we all know it's very artificial and also very Is hypocritical in so many ways.
I have walked in her shoes though and I feel for her and will pray for her as a human being that she continues on the path of recovery.
Maybe this go around she'll try to vote for trump
So she jokes about chopping a humans head off for press but can’t take heat when common people don’t find murder funny?
I am surprised her mom Maggie was not mentioned. I would have asked if the passing of her mom contributed to Kathy's downfall.
I've watched this video several times. I definitely think the loss of her mom was a huge factor. If she tried to commit suicide in June 2020, that's three months after Maggie passed. She was without a doubt struggling with losing her, as anyone who is as close to their mother as she was would. That's another big reason why I feel for her.
@@Pancakeshouse85 Oh, I didn’t know her mom died! She was so funny on Kathy’s show years ago, and you could tell they loved each other so much. My mom and I were best friends, and I still grieve for her…my mom died in 2012.
@@kathleenwyatt563 I'm so sorry to hear that. I sincerely think that was a big factor in Kathy's deteriorating mental health. I hope she's reached the other side and has gotten better now.
@@Pancakeshouse85 Thank you for the kind words, and I wouldn’t be surprised either if Kathy’s illness was exacerbated by losing her mom. Such terrible pain.
Wow, I was so shocked when she said she's 59. She looks so much younger.
Your eye doctor will see you now
@RN RN lol
6 years recovery from prescribed pills... We are worthy even if other people think we are not....
Congrats and well said.
WE REALLY ARE WORTHY!!!!!! 👏 CONGRATULATIONS!!!
How did you do it? Congratulations!
I knew I couldn't live this way anymore . I fought in failed a few dozen times and then I got serious. Joined a recovery program and work daily for a new way.
@@remmary100 just know if your teachable then a new way is learnable. Selfish place is recovery i had to make it every choice about my safety and set boundaries that helps ... Detox is a deadly game if no help is involved.
Love you Kathy hang in there
Let’s not forget that an 11 year Baron Trump saw the picture and thought his father was dead. She’s disgusting
She mocked Rush Limbaugh when he was diagnosed w lung cancer
Karma’s a bitch ain’t it?🙃 Sorry, no sympathy whatsoever for that bitch.
"I was convinced someone was gonna harm me or jump me"
Proceeds to chase a man and woman down the street cursing at them because the woman said "We love Trump." Gotcha 🙄 I don't like to hear about people attempting suicide, I have struggled with my own issues in that regard a few times in my life, but I don't feel sorry for her, she helped lay the groundwork of the cancel culture society, and like most people who do that, they forget that we are all human and therefore flawed so eventually at some point, they fall on the swords they set up for others. I used to be a fan of her, she was funny and I would always watch her shows but she lost me as a fan during the Trump presidency. I didn't then and I still don't agree with people being labeled awful things because of a vote. Alot of these celebrities lost their damn minds and some of them are still on a tangent. I am very over celebrities, they are not people I feel who should be allowed to deem themselves our moral compass nor should they be those we look up to, alot of them are putting on an act anyways, I mean look at this situation, she made a mistake and people who she thought were close friends didn't speak to her again, they are not these supportive rocks for people they claim to be, they are all so very fake. I mean these people tell you to stop speaking to your family if they support someone politically, telling them to be horrible to their families and cut them off because of who they voted for, and she's suprised they treated her like she was a plague, I'm not. I do wish her the best with her cancer diagnosis.
I thought that was so strange, too.
agree 100%
Calling someone out who yelled at you in public is not the same as death threats and harassing someone's sister who's dying in the hospital. Nowhere close.
I can’t say I’ve been a fan of Kathy’s but I do like some of her comedy to a certain extent. As a recovering addict myself, I knew she was addicted to pills when I watched her on an episode of The Wendy Williams Show a few years ago. Like they say, takes one to one. Everything about the way she carried herself on that episode was very clear to me that she was on something. For those who don’t know about addictions it might not be easy to spot but once you’ve been in those shoes, you can spot an addict from a mile away. You can tell she is no longer abusing pills, she even looks a bit younger. Hope she continues to do better.
Kathy Griffin is amazing. She's a survivor.
@Dan F you dude. My guess is she'll outlive you.
Not a fan of hers at all. However, I certainly don't take pleasure in hearing about her current health issues. I pray that God helps clear the bitterness that is surrounding her and blesses her with recovery from her illness and that she allows God to guide her in the right direction. So that she can be a strong witness to what God is able to do.
Puleez, STOP with the God stuff. Worship whatever if the many Gods out there as it is a free country and is your right ... just keep your religion to yourself

@@seattlejayde he or she has the freedom of speech to express their love for God and Jesus right here just like you have the right to not believe or receive it. And, respectfully, if you don't like it, then don't read it and move on. Don't go around giving people orders learn to be respectful and agree to disagree.
Sorry what you struggled with but that’s no accuse to be so obnoxious that you harass people on the street.
She’s awesome! Hoping for a speedy recovery for her. 💖💖
She lost her "work" because of her behavior.
I feel bad for her, however, she seems like the kind of person that went around hitting people with a sledgehammer and then became a delicate flower when the inevitable blowback came.
I’m glad to see her doing better.
She and her democrat friends bullied Roseanne while knowing her history of mental illness. That's karma for Kathy.
@@Ran-33 yup f her and lets go brandon!
People threatened to kill her, she was terrified and that makes her delicate? No bro. Just no.
We love you Kathy, Social media and drugs ahs killed waaaaay to many Americans. We all make mistakes but I couldn't imagine dealing with worldwide backlash, That takes a strong person; And then to get Cancer after beating the addiction? WOW!
*too many
@N 827 Are you a Christian?
Praying for you Kathy. 💛
@Defenestrate I think we should still pray for her. Pray that the Lord moves something in her. My brother always tells me, I don’t believe in your boloney so keep it to yourself, but I always say I’m still going to pray that the Good Lord reveals himself to you, and brings you back, no matter what you think brother I love you ,and I won’t stop praying for you….. Think about it. If we don’t pray for them, who will?
We're all praying for Kathy Griffin.
Though addiction and suicide makes me sad, she made her bed.
I find her grasping to rebrand.
Ugh. The way she interacted with those few people on the street. Seems like a lot of anger underneath her “trying” to be funny. Not a fan.
She sounded bitter.
She sounded like a stupid lunatic Karen, chasing them down the street yelling and then accused the man of “coming at her”.
Yep, complete trash. She needs to stay away from the spotlight.
APOLOGIZES WHEN SHE DOESN'T WANT TO BE CANCELLED, TAKES THE APOLOGY BACK WHEN THEY UN-CANCEL HER AND SHE BECOMES A 'STAR OF EVIL'?
Yes...like who you are, then you reap what you have sown. It's hard, but she was NASTY beyond belief to others. Chickens have come home to roost.
Gosh...watching her screetching following that Trump supporter she is a nasty piece of work.
What was that crack she made at an awards show about Jesus? Not feeling sorry 4 her, SO NOT sorry!
It is so easy for pills, alcohol, and drugs to become a coping mechanism in place of prayer, exercise, and other positive forms of emotion management. We are in your corner Kathy and grateful that you are getting well.
Speak for yourself.
How can she pray for her health if she's an Atheist?
You really missed the mark with your comment as it comes off very ignorant and you made it about yourself. Not everyone is religious, especially Kathy, as she has made it known she is Atheist. Just remember that what you may think is easy to choose one thing over another, that usually isnt the case. If youve never had an addiction to substances than you wouldnt know how hard it actually is to choose what you call easy
@@asmrp2p903 are you kidding me? We are all prone to addictions and my comment was simply empathizing with her and the plight that we all face. We all have to fight to maintain healthy coping mechanisms.
So glad I'm not part of the celebrity world, they have major mental problems compared to the rest of the country. I'm just thankful that I am a conservative with traditional values and not associated with liberals or the woke mob or cancel culture. I'm still living like it's the 1990s, having fun with my simple, content life. It seems like the musicians, actresses and other celebrities are all just a mess. I'd choose my private - small life over fame and fortune any day. The things that Hollywood is involved in is just not in alignment with my values.
When I was 20 years old, I was approached by a playboy scout to do a Playboy video. This was in the early 1990s. I didn’t want to do nudity and I told him no, and he said just come to one party in and check it out and make your decision. I went to the Playboy mansion for one party and the drugs and depravity that I saw there shook me to my core and I never looked back. Hollywood is truly sick. There are many pedophiles in Hollywood as well. I have realized that many of these people have sick and twisted childhoods, and so they fall prey and are easy victims for this type of lifestyle.
I'm glad you're happy, but I've known plenty of traditional and conservative people with all the same problems.
I still think she’s desperate.
Self-sabotage is the worst. I am not a fan, but I truly wish her peace.
Hi
Same exact here, Never liked her or her work but I wish her well
Your issues? You freely expressed yourself. Your freedom to express yourself doesn’t mean people have to agree with your anger.
If you're not angry with Trump there's something matter with you the man tried to blow up the capital killed 500,000 people because of his own ego racial divide do I have to go on?
Kathy is one ballsy incredibly strong lady and I wouldn't expect anything less from her and I'll always have her back❤
Wow! I feel for anyone with an addiction and suicidal 😢🙏🏾
That's me 😔
@@queenfpbt1212 - please fight and don’t give up. I’m in recovery and no longer suicidal. There is hope!
As long as you hate or upset God you will always be in misery. Can't live for the world and not for God. Obsessive Alcohol drinking, partying and cursing others instead of helping isn't a way of life.
I feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t feel like the trump head was that big of a deal
It was not but the media had to throw her under the bus even though everyone was ok with it. We have seen Obama made fun of, burn in effigy and even worst. Wish they had been more like the right wing media, they would double down on that and if you question them, they immediately remind you what the other side does it up to. You fight fire with fire.
@@HSfox agreed, it was all superficial outrage
I love Kathy Griffin more than anything saw her live on Broadway. New York was so excited she got a very very royal deal and I have people in recovery and NA and AA. I’ve been in the Naren on fellowship and the Al-Anon fellowship and you go Kathie my prayers are with you.
They weren't your friends to begin with Kathy, if they stop talking to you just because you got bad press for a stupid photo....
They were concerned only about their careers!!!! They were not your friends!
I’ve always loved here n still do
The world would be a poorer place without Kathy Griffin. Being able to make millions cry with laughter is a gift…..and that’s the gift she keeps giving.
It's not all that uncommon for people who try to make others laugh to have very sad lives themselves.
yeh I get that and agree about making others laugh..but that photo was not funny...it was rather disturbing
GRIFFIN GOES AFTER A LADY WHO VOICES HER OPINION, HER MAN DEFENDS AND PROTECTS HER, AND GRIFFIN WHINES 'VICTIM'. SICK
That wasn’t a suicide attempt….it was a cry for attention and for help. A cry to be seen.
I’m so sorry for your pain! Your work is not done here Kathy
Such a good reminder that we need to lead with love. (Even when we have different political views) Sending you Love! Thx for being so brave to share
Right. I hope she learned that holding a cut-off bloody head resembling a President is not leading with love. Hard lesson.
@@alantinoalantonio I am not one to judge. I may be opinionated politically on Twitter and I keep learning the more critical I am the more I learn I have my own "stuff" to work on. Basically, I have a lifetime of stuff to work on.
@Mike M I am personally working on judging less and leading with love first. Appreciate Kathy sharing. We are so polarized politically and we don't have to be. We can lead with love and have respectful debates. Just like high school students in speech and debate. I am not perfect on the respectful debates but I am working on it!
Been there Kathy. I know what it feels like to think there isn’t a next chapter. But there is. There always is.
I'm so shocked by her drug addiction and cancer diagnosis. I would've never guessed she was using drugs. I'm going through the same thing right now and to know she is too makes me feel not alone. I can't wait for her comeback. Love ya, Kathy!!!!
Prayers to you, overcoming cancer, and addiction. Two toughies for sure! You are stronger than you think, you got this
You are not alone. 🤗
Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
My prayers are with both of you. Have fun and success.
