Kathy Griffin Confirms ‘Fashion Police’ Job Offer, Says May Not Be ‘Right For Me’

The “Fashion Police” vacant spot that has been open since Joan Rivers died in September might not be filled by Kathy Griffin.

Access Hollywood caught up with the Kathy at the “Make Equality Reality” event in Beverly Hills on Tuesday where she filled us in on possibly taking over for her longtime friend and fellow comedian.

“They did offer it to me,” Kathy said of the “Fashion Police” spot.

But timing might prevent Kathy from stepping in to the gig.

“I don’t know if the situation is correct at this time for me or right for me at this time,” she said.

Regardless of who they pick for Joan’s spot, Kathy hopes they keep Joan’s biting comedy style on the E! series.

“I really hope they continue in the spirit of Joan’s work,” she told Access. “She brought a fearlessness and a brand of humor into our homes that we really need.”

Adding, “Somebody’s gotta be out there poking fun at the ridiculousness of all of this!”
