Kathy Griffin strives to keep it more real than Nene

- Wow, her dental work is looking great
There's perhaps only one person in the world who loves reality TV more than me, and oddly enough, she has her own reality TV show. Comedian Kathy Griffin, of Bravo's "My Life on the D-List," is the trash-talking tour de force hitting Atlanta this Saturday at the Fox Theatre. I talked with Kathy, or rather she talked to me while I laughed my ass off, about everything from Atlanta gays to Nene's new nose, so allow me to try to make sense of her sass.
On Nene's new nose from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta":
"Now you know, I've had some 'dental work' done myself. That's what we call it, 'dental work.' I mean, I've gone through two noses. And she definitely had some dental work. She's always talking about keeping it real, keeping it real. And I have to say, her nose job is not keeping it real. That's actually the theme of my show this Saturday: to keep it more real than Nene."
On Atlanta
"I love playing Atlanta. It's the oddest combination of bling rappers and women who love Paula Deen and loud-and-proud gays. My show is going to be like Beer Fest plus Gay Pride, just a Swear Fest, where cursing and offensiveness is celebrated. If you have nothing nice to say, come to the show!"
What she'll talk about at the show
"It's all breaking-news kind of stuff. Everything I'm talking about is current and happening this week. Like that JetBlue flight attendant? And lets not forget the 'Little Chocolatiers.'"
