My Life on the D-List

[UCYOURGYPC]

If anyone here hasn't heard, tune in to the premiere 1st episode for this seasons, "Kathy Griffin: My life on the D-list" She flies to Vegas to see Bette Midler show, "The Showgirl Must Go On", and after Bette's performance, during a private dinner, Kathy asks Bette some advice on how to react to a Grammy win, so Bette calls Stevie! They talk aloud on speaker phone....I saw it last nite...It blew me away!

Besides being a long time friend, Stevie has been a Bette Midler fan since the 70's.
I have a Wild Heart Interview of her on the road/tour for WH, and she told the Interviewer she never goes on tour w/out her copy of the film, "The Rose"
LOVE IT!

It's funny because Kathy had joked with Anderson Cooper about that. He asked her what she liked to be called, comedian or comedienne and she told him that "comedienne" was sexist and pretended to be insulted that he said it. So, Stevie must have seen that and made a point of saying that Kathy was a comedienne because she's a "lady".

Summary from Yahoo (taken from television without pity)

http://tv.yahoo.com/kathy-griffin-my...e/209212/recap


Kathy brings up the Grammy award. Bette tells her she can't vote for her because she's not in the Academy. Bette offers to get Stevie Nicks on the phone. Kathy is extravagantly disbelieving that anyone can just pick up the phone and call Stevie Nicks. She's another one; her names just run together into one word: "Hello, Stevienicks!" calls Kathy. Stevienicks sounds friendly enough on the phone and is sure to get in a plug for Fleetwood Mac, who are apparently together again for the moment. However, Stevienicks encourages Bette and Kathy (and us, I guess) to see the show early in the tour, because there's a chance she'll hook up with Lindsey Buckingham out on the road, and you know how that goes. Kathy is delighted to be getting celebrity dirt she didn't even have to dig for. Stevienicks promises Kathy that she's got her Grammy vote, because she is her favorite comedienne. After Stevienicks explains that a comedienne is a lady comedian, Kathy gloats about being called a "lady". Bette is unconvinced. Then Stevienicks admits that she's not a voting member anyway and Kathy is understandably frustrated. Kathy tells Bette that Stevienicks is a wiccan, and quickly gets carried away with making things up about Stevienicks's coven.

Wow, that actually is not what Stevie was referring to. That was inferred by Kathy. Obviously, this reviewer got their wires crossed.

And even Kathy just said it to be funny. She didn't think Stevie said that.

If anybody watches Kathy Griffin-My Life on the D-List, the season premiere last night had Bette Midler calling Stevie Nicks so that Kathy could ask her if she would vote for her if she was nominated for a grammy for best comedy album. LOL It was short but pretty funny! It re-airs on the Bravo channel several times this week! Check it out if you're interested.

I guess you don't watch the show much? The whole point of the series is Kathy being a low level celebrity, and desperately trying to climb up ranks. If someone can't bolster her fame, she just bypasses them. It's all a big joke at this point, obviously Kathy has carved herself quite a solid footing as a very respected and famous comedian. No Stevie fans should be offended... Kathy would sh!t on her Father's grave if it'd get her an ounce of publicity . Honestly, I thought she was EXTREMELY light on Stevie... she didn't make fun of her for being a rambling, nonsensical kook, or a has been dried up former drug addict. For Kathy, she was absolutely reverent of La Nicks .

These shows are so scripted. It's no different (no more genuine) than Stevie making a guest appearance on Seinfeld and having George Costanza hang up on her.

Wasn't that Stevie's Marty (the Asian man that escorts her down the stage during the Edge Walk) Kathy called in to the room? Looked just like him, and maybe since Stevie isn't touring solo he's working with Bette in Vegas?

I stayed up until 2 a.m to watch it tonight and it was so funny! I love Kathy Oh I loved the part when Kathy hangs up and was like you know Stevie is a wiccan and Bette was like no she's not, she's an angel and you are the witch! Haha, that was great! Thanks for the heads up everyone!

Bette said he used to be Fleetwood Mac's tour manager or something like that, so you're probably right .
