Kathy Griffin's "Dicks" Joke From New Year's Eve (VIDEO)

CNN had Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin cohosting their live New Year's Eve show, and Kathy made Anderson blush on more than one occasion.

When she said she may host a reunion of "Bad Girls Club" during a reality show conversation, she started to catch some flack from Anderson and those off-camera for her job.

Her response?

"I don't go to your job and knock the dicks out of your mouth."

Kathy Griffin's suggestion that Anderson Cooper fellates his guests was probably the funniest thing I've ever heard her say. Usually when I see her on TV I find myself asking for someone to explain to me why she's famous. A hilarious crack and a seeming fluke from one of the most profoundly untalented people in show business.

Well, my first comment was pulled...apparently you can use slang for the male anatomy when you post but not the female anatomy! How funny!!! KG is a classless loser. Period. I would rather slide down a razor blade into a pool of sulfuric acid than have to listen to her awful yelping.

[whatfreshhellisthis]

Yes, I'd prefer that for you, too.

[Primary]

F*** You :)

[BroMan]

This is a mainstream blog. Shouldn't I be shocked by "dicks" in the headline?

[jojojo]

OK to say Dicks--it's generally about making fun of males or their genitals. not OK to say"C" word or "tvats", because it might offend a female

[Primary]

Right on! I had a post scrubbed because it insinuated the 'C' word. Must have been a female editing the post.

Anyone opposed to what Kathy Griffin said had the option of changing the channel. Those who didn't and are still complaining, should apply her comment to themselves.

Those who don't like KG is becuase she tells the truth, and the truth hurts.

It was very fearless and enlightened of AC to cover the minor controversy the following night on his own show. Love him. And Kathy too.

I had no problem watching Anderson hosting the New Year's show alone, he can be pretty funny himself, but the addition of Kathy Griffin kicked up the crazy several notches. I thought she was hilarious and especially when she let that "dick" comment fly - I heard Anderson laughing after she said it too. Anderson consumed in giggle fits is always a good thing to watch and that's what she brings out of him. They better bring her back because the ratings were through the roof for the two of them together.

That woman lives to be crude and Fox should have known better than to "employ" her. She is talentless and obnoxious and thinks she is going to gain fame this way. NOT

[hudsuckerproxy]

Fox didn't hire her. CNN did (see story above).

And KG has already gained famed.

[hudsuckerproxy]

Oops. I meant "fame," of course.

[JhNyc]

Did you write that comment to embarrass yourself?

[HawaiianLady]

Can't figure out why people think KG is funny. I've always thought she was just crude.

[jcause28]

Don't forget very unfunny.

[JhNyc]

See above.

[JhNyc]

Crude, yes. Funny, yes.

[solarian]

griffin not funny or tslented, loser

[JhNyc]

Loser? Not to Emmy(s). Not to the troops she entertains.

[Archie1955]

Saying it to anyone is beyond appropriate and I think she should be looking for another job whether her by her own choice or not.

To answer all your comments - The evening was a HUGE SUCCESS. The remark made every known blog out there and even here there are over twenty five pages of responses. That is not bad for a cable news program. JOKES ON YOU. GO KATHY!!

And remember, that is what CNN is - a cable network. Not regulated by the FCC, unlike the broadcast networks. She could pretty much go as far as she wanted and eveyone (including CNN and Andy ((take a shot)) Cooper) knew that. They could not have bought better publicity from a two time Emmy Award winning comic. And if she is not your cup of tea- networks target 18-49 year olds. If you're ourside the demo, who cares if you don't watch, they were not trying to reach you anyway.

[DaveCullen]

Pretty funny stuff.

The story could have been clearer. In the read, it sounded like Kathy was saying it to Anderson. My eyes widened. Saying it to a heckler is another story.

[mocha59]

Bad move, Anderson. I couldn't watch your broadcast do to her voice. Love YOU! Even watching this video clip caused my husband to consider......

[Hephaestion]

Kathy Griffin is hilarious! God bless her and Anderson Cooper! They need to do a nightly show together! (though Anderson would need to OFFICIALLY come out before they could do that.)

[RobHughey]

I'd certainly watch it.

...but isn't doing two New Years shows together enough for Mr. Cooper to pretty much confess his orientation?

[Riem]

What I'd really like to see is an Ann Coulter smackdown a la Kathy Griffin.

[Midnightrain]

Great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mocha59]

Excellent show idea!!!!!

[hudsuckerproxy]

Kathy on Coulter back in 2006:

I too would welcome a full-fledged smackdown.

[JhNyc]

For all we know, it was Coulter she was talking to on New Year's Eve.
