Ever the drama queen, the media personality’s video begins with a shot of the “Search Party” star at the Polo Lounge restaurant. Like a true actor, the media personality took her seat with flair, rocking her impressive red coat and sunglasses before giving the camera a sharp look.
The words “Trigger Warning: medical/graphic” and “You’re about to see something bad…” flashed across the screen, prompting those who passed out to leave before the next scene. The clip continues with shots of the “Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List” star in the hospital.
The scene gave fans a better look at the 62-year-old’s outfit: a striking red coat designed with black fur detailing, a red wrap top over a black camisole and dark blue jeans. Griffin completed the look with white socks and closed-toe shoes, plus a black handbag.
According to the GLAAD Media Award winner, she was at a “pre-op appointment” before surgery scheduled for the next morning. The Oak Park native noted that she was in good hands, describing her doctor as “a woman’s voice surgeon.”
The video shows her doctor performing a series of tests by sticking a camera up the TV personality’s nose to see her vocal cords. Explaining footage seen on a hospital monitor with overlay text, the “For Your Consideration” star stated that her left cord was paralyzed.
“Yes, I know my vocal cords look like mini vaginas. Deal with it,” the ginger-haired beauty joked before the clip transitioned to a post-op scene. Griffin was lying in a hospital bed, wearing the organization’s signature blue gown.
The surgery appeared to be a success when the word “YES” appeared on the media personality’s neck. Smiling brightly, the “A Memoir According to Kathy Griffin” author excitedly announced her return to the stage, saying:
“Hi, you guys. So I just had the latest surgery on my left vocal cord because I want to be in good shape for my big Vegas show on June 17th, and this is just part of the recovery from my lung cancer surgery. I am cancer free.”

The video ends with a picture of the comedian posing next to his surgeon, Dr. Barbu, who thanked him for the surgery. “So, I’m a little scratchy today, but I’ll be fine,” the cancer survivor concluded.
“I appreciate you all following my journey to regain my voice after #lungcancer! Big shout out to Dr.Barbu,” Griffin captioned the post, adding various hashtags, including “#wellnessjourney,” “#cancer,” and “#survivor.”
LGBTQ Activists Spend Easter Holiday Getting MRIs At Hospital
Before announcing her vocal cord surgery, the Oak Park native caused a stir on social media after revealing she spent her Easter holiday in hospital. In April, the 62-year-old updated his Instagram page with a picture of himself wrapped in a white blanket.
The standing personality sat outside the MRI room, not far from a door labeled with various warnings and cautionary notes. Griffin’s face was covered by a black nose mask while only the white tips of his shoes could be seen under the large blanket.
“Happy Easter???” the TV personality sarcastically wishes his followers, “Get an MRI.” Although the “Suddenly Susan” star did not share additional information about her trip to the hospital, the post left her fans worried.
Some social media users flooded the comment section with thousands of worried messages, wishing the entertainer well. The list includes celebrities such as TV host Ross Mathews, actress Rosanna Arquette, and producer Michael Hitchcock.
