BEST OF 2008: GLOBAL STARS -- KATHY GRIFFIN: BEST COMEDIENNE ON TV

One of my favorite comediennes is Kathy Griffin. She is the funniest comedienne working on TV today.

Kathy Griffin has an Emmy-winning My Life of the D-List -- one of the most hilarious side-splitting shows on tv.

Kathy Griffin has appeared on Larry King and was so good that Larry King had her host an episode of his show (the topic was on paparazzi and Kathy Griffin ripped through it in the funniest manner imaginable. Does CNN have the episode stored anywhere online? I am sure people who love comedy would love to get their hands on it!) Kathy Griffin also has appeared on Jay Leno and always has the audience in stitches -- although sometimes it looks like she is just too sharp for the audience to catch some of the nuance/speed of her jokes!

She is one of the best things working on TV today and brings much needed laughter into the world.

She has her own website: http://www.kathygriffin.net/
