Kathy Griffin Social Media Post Draws Debate

Controversial comedian Kathy Griffin took to social media on Wednesday to share a personal update with her followers. In a tweet, Griffin announced that she is getting a divorce, and didn't hold back her feelings towards Valentine's Day by saying, "Fuck Valentine's Day and fuck all of you." The tweet also included a bold reminder, "Did I say that?".

In a follow-up tweet, Griffin expressed her gratitude for having three shows lined up for the upcoming weekend. She promised to make each member of the audience her personal Valentine, regardless of their sexual orientation. It seems like Griffin is using her comedic talents to cope with her recent personal struggles.

The comedian filed for divorce from her husband, Randy Bick, back in December. This announcement comes just a few months after Griffin revealed that she had gotten her lips tattooed, which surprised and shocked her fans with her swollen appearance.

This is not the first time that Griffin has used her social media presence to share personal updates and struggles. Back in 2017, Griffin made headlines when a photo of her holding a replica of the bloody, severed head of then-President Donald Trump went viral. The backlash she received from this propelled her into the spotlight, but not in a positive way. She claims to have suffered from PTSD due to the massive public backlash that followed.

Continuing her candid updates, in November Griffin shared that she has been using unconventional methods to deal with her Trump-induced PTSD. She revealed that she meows like a cat and moos like a cow during her yoga sessions. While some may view this as an odd coping mechanism, others see it as a vulnerable and relatable way to deal with mental health issues.

Despite her personal struggles, Griffin is still determined to entertain and make people laugh. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she revealed that her upcoming comedy tour will include jokes about Trump. In addition to this, she also made a plea to her fans to purchase tickets, stating that they were not selling well.

Griffin's recent tweets have caused some backlash on social media, with some calling her out for her vulgar language and erratic behavior. However, others have come to her defense, acknowledging the comedian's past struggles and the toll they have taken on her.

It is clear that Kathy Griffin is going through a difficult time, and it seems that her openness about her struggles is not only serving as a coping mechanism for herself but also for her fans who may be going through similar experiences. While her personal life may be experiencing ups and downs, it is evident that her comedic talents are still as strong as ever and she is determined to continue making people laugh. With her upcoming comedy tour and candid updates, it seems that Griffin is not letting her struggles get in the way of her mission to bring joy and laughter to others.
