Details: Amazon.ca Kathy Griffin was made for these times. In our celebrity-obsessed, Page Six, TMZ, reality show culture, she is our Dante, dishing and dissing on celebrities, the famous and infamous. "Here's the dirt," she promises at the beginning of this Emmy-nominated standup special, and the diva of the D-list delivers. Cher, with whom Griffin spends an unforgettable birthday at her Malibu mansion, comes off grandly, as do Rosie O'Donnell, Betty White, Don Rickles, and Tracy Morgan. Not so much the Jonas brothers, or perhaps the unsuspecting James Gandolfini. For a special recorded in 2009, Griffin's material holds up well. Chatty Kathy's accounts of her experiences at the Grammys and the Emmys, like Cher, never get old. The special is presented unbleeped, which is a bonus, as are about 12 minutes of unaired bits. The best concerns a text from Sarah Silverman, whom Griffin had thanked for mentioning her in a Playboy article about women comedians, which, typically, snubbed Griffin. --Donald Liebenson
