KATHY GRIFFIN: MY LIFE ON THE D-LIST ... To Kathy Griffin. Warmest wishes, Renee Zellweger.
Everybody in LA is really snobby, ... They were all like, 'We gotta go - on our way to do RenŽe Zellweger's house.' It was a typical LA experience. If you want to go to a restaurant in LA, you have to be on Desperate Housewives .
This is when Casper Van Dien gets to have his moment in the sun.
Look, you guys, I know I'm not Courteney Cox. But I'm telling you, the house is better than me. They were like, 'I don't think so.'
Phoenix is great. I love Phoenix, ... I love Scottsdale. I love the James Hotel. I have a Kathy Griffin suite. I love -what's that place called? AZ 88. I had never had a cheese crisp, so I went to - oh, can't remember. We went to the State Fair, where I was all about the deep-fried Twinkie. I ate every deep-fried thing - oh, it was heavenly. I ate until I got sick.
I can criticize your religion all I want, and you can criticize mine. I don't like this whole climate of, 'You can't ever say anything bad about the group I'm in, cause every group is untouchable.' We can all criticize each other and engage in debate all we want.
That's life when you're on the D-list.
I prefer being known for my stand-up because I write it. I love being an actor, and saying other people's words is great. But then, when I do stand-up, I love getting my own point of view out there.
There's one thing that's really great about waking up early, and it's not jogging or greeting the day - it's just that that's when they make doughnuts.
I have to tell you, though, the sexism in late night talk is so profound.
It was a nightmare having cameras in the house 10 hours a day for a month.
I have a no-apology policy.
I don't like doing movies, period. Movies are hard. I like TV.
