[When comic Kathy Griffin, in her show in Dublin,] referred to “being in the United Kingdom,” she was startled by the reaction of the Dublin audience. The packed crowd of die-hard fans turned on her, hissing and booing. She seemed thrown off-balance, and had trouble returning to her story.
La Kid, right now,

***************

UD‘s cousin Karen (actress
