Kathy Griffin Admits She Tried To CommitSuicide After Trump Backlash: ‘I Took About100 Pills’
Hollywood Life ^ | 12/2/21 | James Crowley

The comedy icon opened up about her struggles with addiction and mental health amid her cancer battle during an interview with ‘The View.’

The 61-year-old comedian admitted that between lockdown for the COVID-19 pandemic and feeling like so many people were angry at her for her controversial photo holding a faux severed head for former President Donald Trump, she fell deeper into addiction.

While her story was undoubtedly emotional, Kathy eased the tension on the morning talk show by sliding a few jokes about Trump in. “I had fallen under the spell of pill addiction. I was really very addicted to prescription pills. I started probably kind of abusing them maybe a few years before the Trump thing—I’m not blaming it on him,” she said, as Joy Behar humorously gave her the okay to put the blame on the ex-president. Kathy jokingly blamed her battle with lung cancer on him. “He totally gave me cancer,” she quipped.

I saw that one of the real life crime shows was doing an episode about her. The boy’s sister said she (the evil girl) called or texted her after she knew the boy was dead and asked “have you seen your brother lately?” Can’t believe the evil bitch is already out.

Her inner evil was turned against herself with unpleasant consequences.

Just one correctly chosen pill would do the trick.

I don’t believe her. She kept doubling down on what she did.

One of the problems with those two is they live in a bubble. They think everybody thinks (parroting) like they do.

She does that severed head thing and is surprised that Trump supporters are upset? So she tries to kill herself?

Wasn’t that the point?

She is a pathetic individual with low self esteem, acting out. She is 61 but without her makeup on she looks like Florida Meth Woman in a booking mugshot.
