Last year, Kathy Griffin's reality show, My Life on the D-List, lost the emmy for Best Reality Series to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Ms. Kathy was not having it. She called BS during the Creative Arts Emmy's and made a scene. How I wish I was there to witness it.
Well, a year later, and the Emmy voters got it right. Kathy won Saturday night and gave what everyone is calling a "memorable speech."(By "everyone" I mean the two media outlets that discussed it within my earshot over the radio). During the speech, she discussed how celebrities often thank God when receiving their awards and how the emmy was "her god now" and that "Jesus can suck it." Oh, Kathy.
It is annoying when celebrities thank God for their wins. It's like when baseball players look up to heaven and blow a kiss after getting a base hit that scores the go-ahead run, or strike out a batter with the bases loaded. Ugh. God doesn't care about your baseball skills! Big Papi, you are the size of a house. You should be hitting homeruns and hitting the ball out of the infield! Pedro Martinez, God doesn't care that you can still strike people out. He is more concerned with your bad attitude and your association with that little person that acted as your Mini Me last season.
Okay, fine. Bobby Abreu does it and I'm not proud. BUT, God really likes him so it's okay. HA!
Anyway, after a year in which she divorced and lost her father, I'm really happy for Kathy and hope that Bravo renews her series for another season. I mean, she's the Red-Headed Oprah for goodness sakes!
