Kathy Griffin Is Banned From The Today Show Again


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?

I 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 !

I think Natalie has a "friend" who has the clout....

tracynator said...

@misch yup you nailed it! However, just heard GMA beat Today in the ratings. Heads will be rolling soon.

Sadie said...

I thought Matt and Natalie had an affair, therefore Natalie can do and say what she wants?

timebob said...

so Natalie is confusing Kathy for Ricky Gervais?

Or 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.

Megley said...

Matt better reel Natalie in a bit. She just got Ann Curry fired--what a glutton.

Love 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"

Count me in among the Kathy Griffin fans! Love her!

OMG, Natalie is horrid. She and Ann need to skip off into the sunset and let somebody else take over.

Kathy 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.

RocketQueen said...

Isn'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.

AKM said...

If 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.

Love Kathy....it's her job to get herself banned from these shows....great publicity for her new show that starts Thursday.

Can't wait for it!

@AKM

Agreed time a billion.

KPeony said...

i love her too!

Maybe 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.

Katja said...

@weezy lol! I love her as well :)

CrazyCatLady said...

You'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.

Mango said...

I love Kathy and have seen her live twice. First time she was on for 2.5 hours.

I had never heard of Natalie Morales before reading this. Seriously. And Kathy loves the negative publicity, so that bitch can shove it.

MadLyb said...

Oh Kathy, you silly, vulgar ginger. Love you to death!

nettalovesrobin said...

I 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!

mooshki said...

I don't really like KG's tv series, but her standup specials are absolutely hysterical.

Natalie didn't get Ann Curry fired, Ann Curry got herself fired by being so spectacularly bad that people couldn't stand to watch her.

Lelaina Pierce said...

I just watched Tired Hooker the other day. I think she's hysterical. I love anyone who calls celebs out for their bullshit.

Henriette said...

Did Ann Curry get fired? I keep hearing it's going to happen, but I wake up to Curry every morning still.

mooshki said...

Henriette, I don't think it's official yet, but it's coming.

Skippy said...

Rock on Kathy you are the best

Henriette said...

Speaking 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?
