An emotional but resolute Kathy Griffin told a throng of reporters Friday morning in Woodland Hills that she was “standing up” against what she claimed was bullying in the wake of the release of a photo of herself posing with a likeness of President Donald Trump’s severed head.
Griffin apologized for the photo and video but said that “the mob mentality pile-on” that followed inspired her to speak out.
“He broke me,” Griffin said of President Trump. “It’s just not right, and I’ve apologized because that was the right thing to do, and I meant it.”
On Tuesday, Griffin and celebrity photographer Tyler Shields posted a video of Griffin holding a severed, bloody head resembling that of the president. The video showed a straight-faced Griffin slowly lifting the bloody head.
