Kathy Griffin Jokes She Wants to Be the Next Golden Bachelorette: “The First Episode … I F**k Each One”

Kathy Griffin is ready for love.

The comedian and actress stopped by Politickin’ with Gavin Newsom, Marshawn Lynch, and Doug Hendrickson to discuss her current comedy tour. While speaking with the group, one of the hosts asked Griffin if she had a love life at the moment, and she had quite the idea for one.

“Excuse me? I think I should be the next Golden Bachelorette,” she said on the podcast before addressing Joan Vassos, the first woman to lead this chapter of the Bachelor franchise. “So, the current one is great. I love her. OK, so Kathy Griffin’s the Golden Bachelorette.”

She continued, “Here’s my pitch. [In] the first episode, where there’s the most bachelors and the most roses, I fuck each one, each one, and then I decide. No hidden cameras, just a little blur here and there for the cellulite. Boom! Ratings gold.”

If ABC were to actually consider Griffin as the next Golden Bachelorette, she would be competing with all of the women of The Golden Bachelor season two, which has yet to be greenlit. While no show in the Bachelor universe has ventured into celebrity castings thus far, that doesn’t mean it never would. An ABC insider told Entertainment Weekly that the network would be open to meeting with Griffin about the gig.

The first season of The Golden Bachelorette aired its finale and After the Final Rose live special on Nov. 13, which saw (spoiler alert!) Vassos and insurance executive Chock Chapple get engaged after her main suitor Pascal Ibgui left the show because he wasn’t in love.

Elsewhere in the podcast, Griffin also briefly addressed her feud with Andy Cohen when asked if she had spoken to him recently. She explained that he was her boss at Bravo, and then she was fired, but she loved doing specials and had a talk show on the network for two seasons.

“I’m not his cup of tea,” she said. “And it hurts. It just hurts. I’m not going to say anything good or bad. It just kind of hurts.”
