Quote:
"I'm almost positive a certain beloved daytime talk show host once had me kicked out of a backstage dressing room at the Emmy Awards. I can't prove it, but this person, who has short blonde hair, has a mean streak that all of Hollywood knows about."
"Ellen did a monologue about how mean I am. I was in the dressing room like, 'Sh*t! You're another woman comic, c'mon!'"
"I don't know if Ellen gets that when I talk about women, I'm joking. I just feel really strongly about women supporting each other, especially women over 50 and women in comedy, because the people who still make decisions are still middle-aged white guys. We have to be better at not turning on each other."
Well kathys been telling that story for years and has no reason to lie about it. If I was Ellen I'd ignore it, especially with all the good medal of freedom press she just had
She wrote in her memoir that she once did a guest appearance on Ellen's sitcom in the 90s. She said that as they sat around the table doing a script reading, no one would laugh at any of the jokes unless Ellen laughed first.
Just look at how Ellen behaved the one time Kathy got invited to her show and you'll know
Kathy is a great person, nobody will come for her, she comes for everyone for fun but it's never mean spirited. She's always coming for "the brand" or relating personal experiences she had, she's never mean for fun, STAN HER !
