Kathy Griffin strips down for David Letterman [Video]

Kathy Griffin caught everyone by surprise when she stripped down during CNN’s New Year’s Eve countdown broadcast from Times Square, and now she’s done it again. Recalling the “event” on The Late Show, Griffin decided to recreate the scene and stripped down for David Letterman.

“You know, it went well for me,” Griffin told Letterman of the stunt before stripping. “Every year I try to up the ante a little bit. I’ve done it for five years now and I’ve been fired four years in a row…One year I said the f-word so I had to give the money back.”

“I didn’t want to get fired,” she continued. “So this year I thought, ‘What can I do to not get canned?’ I thought it would be appropriate in Times Square to create a moment, so I took my clothes off. I didn’t tell anyone, I didn’t tell Anderson.”

After showing the clip, Griffin threatened to strip down in front of the Late Show audience, and .. well, Letterman gave her the go-ahead.

“Go ahead. Wow, this is nice,” Letterman replied, apparently eager to accomodate Griffin. “Is there anything I can do? I don’t think I should…Wow, oh my, oh buddy. We’re gonna need some pliers.”
