NEWSKathy Griffin Claims Britney Spears Is 'Too Free' After Posting Parody Clip of the Pop Star’s Concerning Knife Video
Kathy Griffin is apparently not sure Britney Spears should be this free!
On the Tuesday, October 3, episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the comedian discussed the recent clips of Spears dancing around with knives.
Kathy Griffin uploaded a parody of Britney Spears' video with a real knife.
“I fear the #FreeBritney people, I do, but sometimes, a person can be too free,” the 62-year-old quipped, referring to the movement in support of the pop star’s release from her conservatorship in 2021.
“All I’m saying is, I love you gays and I love you #FreeBritney people, but you didn’t have a plan,” she joked.
Following the comments, Jimmy Kimmel played a TikTok Griffin created mocking the “Toxic” singer’s concerning clips.
Similar to Spears, Griffin wore a bikini in the footage as she erratically waved around a knife and a spatula, however, the redhead clarified her weapons were “not a prop.”
