Kathy Griffin Booed By Troops After Calling Bristol Palin Fat At USO Event

December 6th, 2010 9:33 AM

As NewsBusters reported Sunday, vulgarian Kathy Griffin called Bristol Palin fat during her opening monologue of the USO's Divas Salute to the Troops broadcast on VH1.

New footage shows the potty-mouthed comedienne was lustily booed by troops in attendance (video follows with transcript and commentary):

KATHY GRIFFIN: Let’s talk about “Dancing with the Stars.” “Dancing with the Stars.” Yes. Yes. We’re going to talk about, and we got two words: Bristol Palin. Yeah, that’s right. Come on. Come on. You’re gonna like this. She’s the only contestant in the history of the show to actually gain weight.

(BOOS)

No, come on, come on. She gained like 30 pounds a week, I swear to God, it was fantastic. She’s like the white Precious.

(BOOS)

You can boo louder than that. Come on, boo me. I love it. I love it. War is hell, war is hell.

What a creature.

How did the USO and VH1 agree to let this thing host such an event?
