Getty Images Kathy Griffin is calling out Jimmy Fallon while claiming she has not been welcomed back to The Tonight Show in years. The 65-year-old comedian posted a video to Instagram on Tuesday (June 30), where she questioned why she has not appeared on Jimmy ‘s late-night show in more than a decade. Her last Tonight Show appearance was in 2013 with Jay Leno . Kathy Griffin says she might be banned from Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show “I have not done the Jimmy Fallon show since it was on at 12:30 Eastern and Pacific, so I guess I’m banned from the Fallon show, or inappropriate, or too controversial,” Kathy said (via Entertainment Weekly ). The Emmy winner explained that “when you’re banned from a show,” they don’t “usually tell you you’re banned,” adding, “They just can’t seem to find room for you. Kathy Griffin calls out Fallon for inviting Conor McGregor on the show Kathy made it clear that she personally really likes Jimmy , saying he was “always super nice to me” when she appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon . However, she took issue with some of the guests who have been booked on The Tonight Show . “I do think it was a bad call for him to have convicted rapist Conor McGregor on,” she said, referring to the disgraced MMA fighter’s June 16 appearance on the show. Conor was found liable in a civil sexual assault case in Ireland in 2024. “I think the Fallon folks made a mistake by having Conor McGregor on. I think it sends yet another message to women and marginalized folks everywhere that we’re not equal and you can do anything to us, and the perpetrators are still going to be out there being glorified.” Kathy added.

Take it from the most canceled celebrity in history – look it up. As the kids say, do better,” she said. In the caption of her post, Kathy wrote, “ Fallon , what kind of message are we sending here?! AND can we PLEASE save canceling people for the ones who actually deserve it?” Christina Ricci has also slammed Fallon for inviting McGregor on to The Tonight Show .
