“It is a sad day when an icon like Barbara Walters, in the sunset of her life, is reduced to publicly branding herself as an adulterer, humiliating an innocent family with accounts of her illicit affair and speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book. It speaks to her true character.”
- Star Jones on Barbara Walters new memoir, Audition.
Celebrity Smack reader ‘Lala’ attended a Kathy Griffin stand-up show a few days ago and says it was a blast.
As Lala tells it,
“First of all, it was packed with drunk queens - and of course, insane women like myself.
Kathy dished on everything. She’s met lots of stars, shared dressing rooms with them, etc.”
So what juice did Kathy share with her audience?
*She said Paris Hilton is retarded - and watching her type was like watching a bad video of a cat playing the piano. No shocker there.
*Barbara Walters said she “prefers Astroglide” when Kathy told her she plans on using KY jelly when her puss gets all menopausal. Who knew Babs preferred Astroglide?
*Paula Abdul is the new Whitney - on so many drugs, but she thinks Oxycontin is the main drug in her system, followed by several layers of other painkillers.
*At the Larry King 50th anniversary show, she saw Dr.Phil (she hates his ass) groping Jane Fonda. she almost came to Jane’s rescue , but she thought she could handle him herself. She was right - Jane told his ass off - something about hating republicans.
*She ripped Oprah a new one. Talked about how she ’s gaining her wait back, and how somewhere Gayle is shivering in the corner with a shiner. HA!
Thanks for sending those in Lala!
“I’ll just say that Barbara Walters is a very complicated woman. I like her but she doesn’t get me at all. She doesn’t even have any pretense of getting me.
I don’t play up to her or anybody because I don’t know how. My mother is always yelling at me to kiss ass! I’m really trying to learn. I wish I could tell you, ‘I know how to get Barbara Walters into the palm of my hand.’ But I just don’t have that ability. That’s why I always get into trouble.”

Paris Hilton called Barbara Walters from jail on Sunday, saying she is a changed person.
Walters said on this morning’s ‘The View’ that the heiress "sounded tired but totally aware of what she was saying."
Paris told Walters, "I feel as if I’m a different person. I used to act dumb. That act is no longer cute. Now,I would like to make a difference. God has given me this new chance."
Hilton says that she has taken up an interest in charity work, children, spirituality and even humility. "I haven’t looked in a mirror since I got here."
