Kathy Griffin is always being banned by one program or another. For the fourth time she has been banned by The Today Show. Is it a ban if you have been banned more than once? When it gets to four times it is more like a suspension than an actual ban. Plus, she works for the same network so it gets kind of awkward when you want to plug her show but can't because she is not allowed on another show on the same network. Kathy says she was banned by Natalie Morales because Natalie thought Kathy was rude back at the Golden Globes. Kathy says she was not at the Golden Globes. I think she was banned from those.
Does Natalie Morales have the clout to ban someone from the Today show?
ReplyDeleteI love Kathy Griffin ! I don't even know who Natalie Morales is ! Most of these Hollywood types (in Natalie M.'s case, those who THINK they are Hollywood types), have no sense of humor and are so used to being kowtowed to, that they can't handle someone like Kathy Griffin. Love her ! Love her stand up !
ReplyDeleteI think Natalie has a "friend" who has the clout....
ReplyDelete@misch yup you nailed it! However, just heard GMA beat Today in the ratings. Heads will be rolling soon.
ReplyDeleteI thought Matt and Natalie had an affair, therefore Natalie can do and say what she wants?
ReplyDeleteso Natalie is confusing Kathy for Ricky Gervais?
ReplyDeleteOr it all could just be a PR stunt for her talk show.
Who the hell is Natalie? I like GMA better anyway. Can't stand the whackadoodle, Kathy Lee.
ReplyDeleteMatt better reel Natalie in a bit. She just got Ann Curry fired--what a glutton.
ReplyDeleteLove Kathy! Natalie needs to relax and have a sense of humor. With all of the stress and negative news going on in our world today, it's nice to have a good laugh! To quote Sergeant Hulka "Lighten up, Francis"
ReplyDeleteCount me in among the Kathy Griffin fans! Love her!
ReplyDeleteOMG, Natalie is horrid. She and Ann need to skip off into the sunset and let somebody else take over.
ReplyDeleteKathy is making a career out of getting banned so she's probably thrilled. Great new material.
It is such a publicity stunt. NBC Universal owns Bravo.
ReplyDeleteIsn't this the same Natalie called out by Julia Roberts during the Globes or Oscars year before last when she said "Who's Natalie?" Yeah, that kind of says it all.
ReplyDeleteIf I could ban people, I would ban Kathy Griffin. From EVERYTHING. I just can't stand the woman...and I use that term loosely. "Shrewish harpy" might be more accurate.
ReplyDeleteLove Kathy....it's her job to get herself banned from these shows....great publicity for her new show that starts Thursday.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for it!
@AKM
ReplyDeleteAgreed time a billion.
i love her too!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Griffin said something in the makeup room on another show (on Bravo or NBC) and one of the techs told Morales at *her* next spackle, er, makeup session.
ReplyDelete@weezy lol! I love her as well :)
ReplyDeleteYou're not banned if they keep inviting you back...its called ratings or depending on the time of year, sweeps. KG has a new show so this is her attempt to drum up some stupid publicity.
ReplyDeleteI love Kathy and have seen her live twice. First time she was on for 2.5 hours.
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of Natalie Morales before reading this. Seriously. And Kathy loves the negative publicity, so that bitch can shove it.
Oh Kathy, you silly, vulgar ginger. Love you to death!
ReplyDeleteI have been a fan of kathy for years! Im glad that she will call out these fake as celebrities and put them on blast! Let them ban her it just proves she is hitting a nerve!
ReplyDeleteI don't really like KG's tv series, but her standup specials are absolutely hysterical.
ReplyDeleteNatalie didn't get Ann Curry fired, Ann Curry got herself fired by being so spectacularly bad that people couldn't stand to watch her.
I just watched Tired Hooker the other day. I think she's hysterical. I love anyone who calls celebs out for their bullshit.
ReplyDeleteDid Ann Curry get fired? I keep hearing it's going to happen, but I wake up to Curry every morning still.
ReplyDeleteHenriette, I don't think it's official yet, but it's coming.
ReplyDeleteRock on Kathy you are the best
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Curry leaving, watching some of the Today Show and Meredith Viera is coming back for the Olympics! No mention of Curry, so was she canned?
