## Transcript

For your late night highlight, fashion savvy Kathy Griffin put David Letterman on her worst dressed list. [ NOISE ] Yes. But the late night host didn't seem to mind too much. No, you're on the worst dressed list. Worst dressed list. Yes. Okay. I probably am, and I don't care. David, it's everything. [ APPLAUSE ] Look at, look at him though. [ APPLAUSE ] I don't know. But at least Griffin gave Letterman a few fashion tips after totally insulting his wardrobe. Just pose for the cameras and get his suits tapered in a bit. Yeah, we're sure he'll take you up on that, Kathy. Griffin does know what she's talking about when it comes to fashion, though.

The comedian is set to take the late Joan Rivers's place on E! 's Fashion Police. And she said in a recent interview on the today show she's determined to make sure her friend's fun and fearless spirit lives on. And I will continue, if nothing else, in her fearless style of taking no prisoners. But our styles were different, ya know? I'm a different human being. I'm more improvisational and I don't know what I'm gonna say. Griffin will join the fashion police cast when the show returns January Twelfth
