Kathy Griffin: My Show's 'Going to Be A Sh*tstorm!'
Did you expect anything less?
She fired a warning shot last night on Watch What Happens: Live, but in case it's still not absolutely clear, no one knows what's going to happen when Kathy Griffin launches her talk show, Kathy, on April 19 -- not even Kathy. "Believe me, I'm not going to know what's going to come out of my mouth until the camera's rolling," Kathy tells The Huffington Post. "It's going to be, what's called in the industry, a sh*tstorm."

On top of the potential for some serious verbal assault, Kathy makes no promises that she'll even bother to leave her clothes on. "I'd like to do the first bottomless broadcast. I feel like anyone can do a topless show, but when's the last time you saw a nice, sensible shirt, heels and no pants? And I don't mean I'm hiding behind my desk like [Stephen] Colbert or Jon Stewart when they don't have their pants on," she tells the site. "I mean, I'm Sharon Stone, taking it to the streets."
Well, there's a goal. As for hot seat guests, the comedy firestorm adds, "I don't really want celebrity guests." Why so, K? "Because I don't know if I can continue to do the Lord's work, which is make fun of celebrities. If I'm sitting on the couch with Gwyneth Paltrow, how can I make fun of GOOP?"
There, however, is one exception to Kathy's law. Tebow. "If I have to book Tim Tebow, I'll do it. Of course, he'll have to talk about his stance on Prop 8, not basketball or whatever the f*ck he plays." Now there's a matchup.
