Kathy Griffin insists she isn´t a bully
Kathy Griffin isn’t a bully. The Hollywood funnywoman — who has previously ripped into Sarah Palin and her daughters Bristol and Willow — is a long-time advocate of the LGBT community and talked about the issue of actual bullying, referring to the incident at Rutgers University where a student committed suicide after he was bullied.
“Look, if you think a comedian is a bully, what that tells me is you’ve never been bullied,” she said. “If that’s your idea of a joke, bullying somebody, than you know what, that’s very different.”
Palin, who called Griffin a “has-been,” had also complained about Griffin’s getting ready to play a Tea Party-like character based on the former Alaskan governor on an upcoming episode of Glee.
“I am very flattered by it because Ryan Murphy, the creator, I’m pretty sure he wrote the character for me because of my various fake controversies I’ve been in with the Tea Party,” she said.
