Kathy Griffin Talks Celebs With Larry King

Comedian Kathy Griffin’s interview on ‘Larry King Live’ aired Tuesday, where she opined on several celebrities. On Paris Hilton, Griffin said, “OK, well that’s what’s interesting is you’d think she should be a D-lister and yet we’re in such celebrity crazed culture and people are so famous for being famous that what’s ironic is she’s as A-list as Meryl Streep, meaning if you’re throwing a big Hollywood party and you want lots of press coverage you’re as excited about Paris Hilton on her red carpet as you are about Meryl Streep which is a crime. But that’s the main thing, right, that sex tape actually really, truly catapulted her onto the A-list unprecedented.” As for Britney Spears, she remarked, “Oh, I think Britney is sort of continuing that classic line of divas that’s just going to keep going crazy forever, like Mariah Carey, like Liza. I think her whole life she’s going to be a little nuts and that’s what I love about her. But I think the nude photos are great. She’s got to dump the loser husband though, right? Come on, he’s living off her and he’s trying to be a rapper. He’s Portuguese now.” Check out the entire transcript at CNN.com.
