Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never dropped at mind?
Not in the event you’re Kathy Griffin.
In what has grow to be a bitter Recent 12 months’s Eve tradition, Griffin resurfaced a clip Saturday of Bravo honcho Andy Cohen pretending to not know her in 2017 after replacing her as Recent 12 months’s Eve co-host on CNN.
“Ugh. Every 12 months someone sends me this clip around Recent 12 months’s Eve,” Griffin, 62, wrote within the caption.
“This guy was my boss for years. Decided whether or not I worked at Bravo. Are you able to imagine seeing your ex boss on TMZ like…this? Ouch! Anyway, I can’t wait to look at Miley and Dolly tonight.“
The Post reached out to a Cohen rep for comment Saturday.
Within the October 2017 clip, which racked up 13,000 likes on Griffin’s ‘gram in a matter of hours Saturday, a TMZ reporter grills Cohen about landing the ball drop gig alongside Anderson Cooper.
“Have you ever talked to Kathy in any respect within the meantime? Did you run it by her first before you accepted it?” the reporter asks him, to which Cohen responds, “Who?”
“Kathy Griffin!” the interviewer repeats, to which he again replies, “Who?”
“I don’t know her,” Cohen, 54, states.
Because the reporter tries to make clear who he means by “Kathy Griffin” — describing her because the “ex-host” — he can’t consider the talk show host won’t admit he knows his former colleague. Cohen claims he doesn’t know why it’s news to him, flashing a goofy grin to the camera.
On the time, the “Watch What Happens Live” host admitted he was attempting a — failed — Mariah Carey impression.
Griffin co-hosted CNN’s Recent 12 months’s spectacular for nearly a decade before she was axed from the published in 2017.
The outspoken comedian was fired after a photograph of her holding a fake, severed head that resembled Donald Trump’s circulated online. Griffin lost several celebrity friends, including Cohen.
She has since called Cohen “one in all the worst bosses I ever had” and claimed he “treated me like a dog.” From 2005 to 2013 at Bravo, Griffin wore various hats, including starring in the fact series “My Life on the D-List” and hosting her own talk show, “Kathy.”
She continued their beef early this 12 months by revealing she “hate-watched” Cohen and Cooper ring in 2022.
In years past, Cooper and Cohen have poured back shots on-air, being obliterated by the point the clock strikes midnight. However the two are reportedly starting dry January one night early — they’ll not be consuming alcohol during their broadcast that is often filled with drunken tomfoolery.
“We aren’t drinking, but we’re going to have a BLAST,” Cohen told Page Six this week.
As for Griffin, she’s vowing to look at a pair she loves as a substitute this 12 months: Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus. The enduring duo will kick off Recent 12 months’s Eve on NBC and Peacock — which country superstar Parton guarantees shall be “legendary.”
