Kathy Griffin Breaks Out Lingerie For NYE

by Cate Carrejo

Kathy Griffin, notorious cohost of CNN's New Year's Eve festivities, pulled perhaps her most daring stunt ever during the last moments of 2015 — Griffin walked out into Times Square in just her bra on live TV and Twitter totally exploded. Despite the 45-degree weather, the notoriously raunchy 55-year-old comedian disrobed during her walkout, taking off the coat she was initially wearing to reveal just her bra and her "rockin bod," in the words of cohost Anderson Cooper.

Griffin started the night in her leopard print pajamas, relaxing in bed with Anderson Cooper, and during her wardrobe change, Griffin apparently had a different idea. Griffin removed her blue fur coat to reveal a lacy, dark blue bra and immediately posed for pictures with fans in the crowd. Cooper seemed extremely concerned about Griffin’s exposure to the weather, but Griffin led with reckless abandon into the cold night.

But this actually wasn't the first time that Griffin went topless for New Year's Eve. During CNN's NYE coverage in 2012, Griffin spent part of the celebration without a shirt. Apparently, she liked it so much, she had to do it again, producing a huge Twitter reaction. Although there was a decent amount of hate for Griffin online, she also got a lot of compliments on her figure and her bold move. Check out the best tweets from Kathy Griffin's hilarious stunt.
