Kathy Griffin Revealed Her Lung Cancer Diagnosis in August 2021
On August 2, 2021, Griffin revealed via Twitter that she’d been diagnosed with lung cancer, despite being a non-smoker.
“I’ve got to tell you guys something. I have cancer. I’m about to go into surgery to have half of my left lung removed,” she wrote in a statement. “Yes, I have lung cancer even though I’ve never smoked! The doctors are very optimistic as it is stage one and contained to my left lung.”
Griffin then underwent surgery to remove portions of her lung which altered her vocal cords, temporarily.
“Okay, so I have to explain my voice, you guys, listen to my voice,” Griffin said while appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Wednesday, December 1, 2021. “So I had surgery. You’re not gonna believe this. So I’ve never smoked. I got lung cancer. And in August I had half of my left lung removed. I’m not even kidding. And so now they like put the intubation tube too rough up my vocal cords. So now I’m like, Minnie Mouse meets Marilyn Monroe.”
