Kathy Griffin underwent a hysterectomy on Friday after she found herself at risk of developing cancer again. 

The My Life on the D-List star, 64, shared her story including a funny anecdote about her nurse who was confused by tariffs, calling them terrorists.

‘Happy Monday! I had a hysterectomy on Friday, that’s right they took out the uterus, the fallopian tubes & the ovaries,’ Kathy wrote on Instagram.

‘Pre-cancerous, blah blah blah,’ she continued. ‘I’m going to do a @patreon post later about my private ‘nurse’ (who possibly…got her scrubs online).

‘I sent her home because she also thinks that ‘tariffs’ are ‘terrorists.’ So she kept saying stuff like “I don’t like Trump anymore because the price of eggs is going up and now he’s adding terrorists!”‘

In the caption of the post, Kathy wrote, ‘Not to be an a–hole, but how do I NOT have a reality show to capture all of this??? I mean, you can’t write it. It’s too real.’

In 2021, Kathy announced that she had stage one lung cancer and that she needed to have surgery to remove half of her left lung. 

A few months later, she revealed she was cancer free.

Last week, Kathy revealed the way she punks her friend Sharon Stone.

‘I’m friends with Sharon Stone and one of the things I do to torture her is adding her to random text chains with people she doesn’t know,’ the Suddenly Susan alum told Us Weekly.

 ‘I have her on four text chains now, and she keeps side-texting me and says, “I’m going to f**king kill you. Stop adding my phone number to people I’m never going to meet.”‘

During a November 2024 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Griffin explained how the prank all came out.

‘My new favorite hobby is that every time Sharon Stone blows me off for a dinner date, I add her to a random text chain,’ the comedian revealed, making Kimmel crack up. ‘And Jimmy, she, like, wants to kill me.’

‘How many times has this happened?’ Kimmel asked.

‘Around four,’ Griffin said. ‘And they’re like 17-person text chains.’

‘And it’ll say, “Sharon Stone has been added to the conversation?”‘ Kimmel asked.

‘And it’s her real number,’ Griffin added. ‘It’s not her office number.’

‘I like that,’ Kimmel said while giggling. ‘I’m going to use that, I like that idea.’

Griffin also appears to be reigniting her long-standing feud with Will Smith.

The controversial comedian claimed the actor gave her the cold shoulder when they worked together decades ago—years before she would go on to slam him for his infamous Oscar slap.

During Tuesday’s episode of her Talk Your Head Off podcast, the actress recalled her early days in Hollywood when she landed a guest role on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in 1990.

But according to Griffin, Smith, then a rising star, completely ignored her until the moment they filmed

‘This was the first big gig I had,’ she said, adding, ‘He did not talk to me until show day.’ 

Griffin explained that the episode was sH๏τ before The Fresh Prince had even premiered, at a time when Smith was primarily known as a rapper.

She explained that Smith had ‘ignored her all week because he’s launching a gigantic show.’

‘When I finally got to talk to him on shooting day, which was Friday, I said, “What would you like me to call you, Fresh Prince or Will?” And he said, “You can call me Will,”’ she continued.

‘So I did, and I was, you know, nervous around him, because I’d seen all his videos, and Jazzy Jeff was there for a day, which was great, and the live audience went crazy when they saw Jazzy Jeff. He may have even DJ’d, if I recall correctly.’

While she acknowledged the pressure Smith was under as the face of a brand-new show, she claimed he was distant all week, only warming up when cameras rolled.

‘He really took his time to kind of get to know me a little bit,’ she said. ‘And he was asking about me and helping me relax.

‘I didn’t tell him I was nervous, but I think he could tell that I hadn’t done a show this big before.’
