Griffin: 'Nobody would mistake me for Aniston'

Kathy Griffin has reportedly revealed that she is not sure why she "wasted time" worrying about her appearance.

The 48-year-old comedienne has previously been candid about going under the knife for plastic surgery procedures. However, she has now admitted that she is "embarrassed" by never-before-seen photos of her post-surgical liposuction operation in her new memoir Official Book Club Selection: A Memoir According to Kathy Griffin.

She told People: "What I can't figure out is why I wasted time worrying about my looks. I am a comedian. I'm not on the runway in Milan."

She added: "Believe it or not, people don't come to see me really thinking I'm going to look like Jennifer Aniston."

The My Life On The D-List star, who recently won a bikini poll in the publication, said that she is ready to be viewed as "a stupid shallow sex object" because of the honour.

Griffin will host the Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards on September 12, while her Bravo programme was nominated for an outstanding reality programme Emmy.
