KATHY GRIFFIN: MY LIFE ON THE D-LIST – SEASON 5

The anticipated fifth season of the two-time Emmy winning series “Kathy Griffin: My Life On The D-List” premieres on Bravo on Monday, June 8 at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Even though Kathy is an Emmy winner, she must still battle life’s indignities as an under-appreciated, shunned and card-carrying member of the celebrity D-List. Griffin is steadfast in her mission to do whatever it takes to get noticed and get freebies and embraces her life on the D-List, relishing in those rollercoaster moments that she hopes will translate into tabloid photo ops that no one else would want.

Returning to the new season are Kathy’s “peeps” assistant Tiffany Rinehart, tour manager Tom Vize, her beloved mom Maggie and her unruly dogs Chance and Pom Pom. In the new season, Griffin’s a C-Lister in training and gallivants the globe seeking advice from her A-List idols including Suzanne Somers, Bette Midler, Gloria Estefan, Cher, Rosie O’Donnell and Paula Deen. Season four of “Kathy Griffin: My Life On The D-List” had its highest season ever, averaging over one million total viewers. Michael Levitt Productions produces the fifth season of “Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List,” along with Inappropriate Laughter for Bravo. The series is executive produced by Michael Levitt and Kathy Griffin.

Tonight’s episode begins with Kathy wondering if this is the year she gets off the D-List. After all, she is a two-time Emmy winner now. But a Grammy nod for her new comedy album may just be the catalyst Kathy needs to finally get her on the A-List. So Kathy, her assistant Tiffany and her tour manager Tom drop by the Grammy headquarters to see if she might be able to bribe the Grammy people into giving her the award. Later Kathy heads to Vegas to rub A-List elbows with the divine Miss M – that would be Bette Midler. Bette makes Kathy an offer she can’t refuse — a cameo in her lavish stage show at Caesar’s Palace! Against the clock, Kathy has to quickly learn the choreography, improvise a costume and come up with a hilarious zinger for her part in the show.
