Kathy Griffin: Strong Black Woman

Reviewed by:
Gregg Braverman

Rather than taming her cute-as-a-shit-dipped-button spaz act to broaden her fan base, in her latest unwarranted one-hour special, the carrot-topped comedienne refines it to appeal solely to celebrity news junkies and salivating lardos creaming for E-list nattering. The Humor Torch lobs her vitriolic gossip at A-listers as if she were the ugly cheerleader, thankful to make the team but not as pretty, as popular, or as slutty as the squad captain. Griffin does get one star for guts after dropping trou for an entire bit. If she keeps that up, she'll be a hit at Caesars…Smut Palace.
