Kathy Griffin on Amanda Bynes

Kathy Griffin is known for not holding back on anything. She always speaks her mind, even if her mind is saying/doing some incredibly embarrassing things. Remember when she kept try to give Anderson Cooper a blowjob on live television? Here is the video to refresh your memory. I do have to admit that even though it was incredibly awkward, it was pretty hilarious. Anyway, Kathy Griffin just had her very own one-hour stand up special on Bravo.

‘Kathy Griffin: Calm Down Gurrl’ is the name of the special and in the special, the 52-year-old talked to the audience about Amanda Bynes…

“So Amanda Bynes is allegedly doing stuff like going shopping, locking herself in dressing rooms for two hours and crying — do you know how many times I’ve wanted to do that. That sounds like a dream! You go into the dressing room, the lighting is horrible, you feel self conscious and you just want to take a bunch of clothes and blow off steam…Amanda Bynes has got it all figured out, I’m telling you.”

It seems like Kathy has taken a “gentle” approach when it comes to Amanda Bynes. She’s talking about her situation in a funny way…without being mean. That is something I wish more comedians would try to do. Griffin actually talked with Entertainment Weekly about being careful when talking about Amanda Bynes.

“I will say when it comes to Amanda Bynes that really is a unique situation. So what I’m commenting on about her right now is her tweets back to people are so vicious, they kind of define a bullying tweet. I’m not going to make fun of the fact that she seems to be legitimately troubled. I’m making fun of her tweets about Rihanna. The reason they’re so comical to me is Rihanna has so many millions of fans and she loves her thug life; She’s got those thug life tattoos on her hand. So personally, I would not want to tussle with Team Rihanna.”

I agree 100% with Kathy Griffin. In fact, I wrote an article about Bynes’ tweets to Rihanna and basically said that same thing. You mess with Rihanna and you’re probably going to get your ass kicked. I’m pretty sure Rihanna could even kick my ass, and you know what? I’d probably enjoy every single minute of it. I encourage it. I’d happily take my ass kicking with a big goofy smile on my face.

Please come kick my ass Rihanna…please.
