Kathy Griffin ‘Devastated’ Over CNN Firing As Trump Backlash Explodes
June 1 2017, Published 9:51 a.m. ET
Kathy Griffin is "inconsolable" after getting axed by CNN over her controversial Trump tweet, RadarOnline.com has learned.
As RadarOnline.com reported, the 53-year-old fiery red head posted a photo depicting herself holding a model of President Trump’s severed head yesterday and was subsequently fired by CNN, despite her apology.
“Kathy is just absolutely devastated right now and has been crying hysterically but no one knows what to say to make her feel better right now,” a source close to Griffin told RadarOnline.com.
“Kathy lives for the CNN gig and hosting NYE show is her proudest moment of the year. She just can’t believe that Anderson Cooper took sides when he has talked so much about Trump.”
As previously reported, Griffin promptly took down the disturbing photo after backlash exploded online.
But it was too late.
“Her non-celebrity friends are really worried about her right now,” the insider claimed. “But she asked her A-list pals such as Pharell Williams and Cher to tweet out support for her and they just haven’t.”
