Kathy Griffin looked nearly unrecognizable as she stepped out in Los Angeles this week amid backlash over her recent anti-Trump TikTok post.

The comedian, 64, was spotted enjoying a walk with a male friend near her $8.8million Malibu home on Tuesday, July 1.

Griffin was noticeably makeup-free and her flaming red hair looked wild as it blew around in the breeze.

The Suddenly Susan star was also missing her signature bangs.

For the stroll around her neighborhood stroll, Griffin rocked a T-shirt with her face from her 2017 Laugh Your Head Off World Tour.

She completed the low-key outfit with black yoga pants, blue New Balance sneakers and a cross-body purse with two water bottles peeking out of it.

Kathy Griffin was almost unrecognizable when she was spotted in Los Angeles this week. This comes as she faces criticism for a recent anti-Trump TikTok post. The photo was taken in 2024.

Griffin, who looked to be in high spirits, was joined on her walk by a muscular, gray-haired gentleman wearing all-black.

Just days before Tuesday’s sighting in LA, Griffin sparked fury by sharing a video showing artwork of four severed heads of billionaires – including Donald Trump.

She shared a clip to TikTok, stitching a video showcasing a piece of art that consisted of intricate cloth heads of four billionaires, with ‘blood’ dripping from their neck. 

The four decapitated heads depicted are Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and the current president, with the video panning across them hanging on the wall. 

The clip ends with Griffin tilting her head and nodding with a very slight smile, as the text above her reads: ‘That’s all.’

‘For the first time ever… no comment,’ she captioned the clip.

The pointed video comes after the comedian caused mass outrage in 2017 when she posted a clip showing her holding a fake decapitated head made to look like Trump.

The act caused the media personality to lose her hosting gig with CNN, which she had had been a part of since 2007.

Viewers quickly flooded to the comment section of this latest clip – many disturbed by the gory artwork.

‘Thought inciting violence was bad,’ one user questioned.

‘Did you not learn from the first time?’ commented another.

Someone else simply wrote: ‘What is wrong with you?’ while another snarked: ‘Ah look who’s so pathetically desperate to stay relevant.’

Others supported Griffin, praising her in the comments section of the video.

‘Queeeeeeeennnnn. 100000 steps aHEAD of everyone at all times,’ declared a user.

‘You were the pioneer, Kathy,’ gushed another.

In May, Griffin shared a video to her YouTube channel referencing the infamous ficitional beheading picture, complaining that late night host Stephen Colbert made her cry by ambushing her about the incident during a 2018 interview.

The comedian, who said she had attempted to ban him from discussing the topic, called Colbert a ‘d*ck’ and branded the interview as a ‘bulls**t ambush.’

Griffin argued the CBS host’s line of questioning was ‘laced with misogyny,’ and accused Colbert of punching down on a ‘D-list celebrity.’

The claims came seven years after interview had taken place, and nearly eight after the controversy that caused Griffin to lose her plum hosting gig at CNN.

The interview with Colbert months later saw her lightly pressed about the May 2017 photo-up.

Griffin said she’d just been questioned by the Secret Service over the photo and had begged with Colbert to avoid the topic.

First, showrunners obliged, she said – before recalling how they shifted course at the 11th hour.

The comic compared the ensuing experience to a grilling one might expect on ’60 Minutes’ instead of a satirical talk show. She claimed Colbert – a comic as well – ‘kept going and kept going’ with his questions.

‘And then the tears came,’ Griffin said. ‘I just remember thinking, “He would not talk down to the guys like this. He just wouldn’t.”‘ 

The video sparked mixed reactions online, with some defending the comedian and others fuming

Griffin claimed she did not release her tears until the interview’s conclusion.

‘I was still smiling and waving, and I could feel them coming down my cheeks,’ she proclaimed, before claiming an executive producer went up to her to ask about her tears.

At the same time, she said the producer tried to explain away Colbert’s line of questioning.

‘”He just couldn’t get over the picture. He just can’t get over it,”‘ she recalled of what the staffer alleged said.

‘And I go, “What’s for him to get over? I don’t understand. It wasn’t a picture of his decapitated head.”‘

At the time, Griffin doubled down that it was her right to take a photo of her holding what looked like the president’s decapitated head under the First Amendment.
