Summary
- Comedian Kathy Griffin is launching a new leg of her tour.

- Griffin faced backlash and a DOJ probe for a Trump mask photo in 2017.
Comedian Kathy Griffin is set to launch the latest leg of her "New Face, New Tour" stand-up show starting this Friday in Tacoma, Washington. The tour, scheduled to run through January 2027, will feature many of her signature celebrity anecdotes.
Griffin plans to share previously untold stories about "The View," including backstage experiences with the late Barbara Walters. She humorously acknowledges that not being able to defame the deceased allows for more candid discussions. Griffin also commented on her surname connection to "The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, joking about potential MAGA leanings in her own relatives.
The comedian is also revisiting the aftermath of a controversial 2017 photo where she held a mask resembling Donald Trump's bloody head. This incident resulted in a Department of Justice probe, though she was cleared. The experience led to industry repercussions, detailed in her 2019 documentary "Hell of a Story."
