Small in stature but blessed with a big mouth, this feisty redhead started out with the Groundlings improv troupe before launching a career in stand-up comedy. After a handful of small film roles and TV guest spots, Griffin gained national prominence as Brooke Shield's sarcastic sidekick on four seasons of Suddenly Susan. After the sitcom ended in 2000, she found her niche in reality television. Whether winning on Celebrity Mole Hawaii, hosting Average Joe, discussing her extensive plastic surgery and huge gay following, or dishing about celebrities such as Clay Aiken, Nicole Kidman and Whitney Houston on Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List, this acid-tongued comedian has been alternately revered and reviled for being herself.

  • Performed with Lisa Kudrow, Jon Lovitz and Phil Hartman in L.A.'s Groundlings improv group.
  • Dated Quentin Tarantino, who later included a scene of her stand-up act in his movie Pulp Fiction (1994).
  • Appeared as a nurse in Eminem's "The Real Slim Shady" video.
  • Found an obsession and career niche in reality TV, winning $233,000 on ABC's Celebrity Mole Hawaii, hosting NBC's Average Joe, making a cameo on The Surreal Life and launching Bravo's Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List.
  • After undergoing LASIK surgery in 2003 to correct her vision, she had severe complications. Dr. Robert Maloney of Extreme Makeover presided over the procedure. Griffin has been an outspoken critic of Dr. Maloney and LASIK surgery ever since.
  • Was fired as a commentator from E! Entertainment Television after cracking a joke about juvenile actress Dakota Fanning entering rehab at the 2005 Golden Globes.
