Tip it!
By Kathy Griffin
KATHY GRIFFIN & HER MOTHER WRITE BOOK
Maggie Griffin, author of TIP IT!: The World According to Maggie (Hyperion, June 29, 2010; Hardcover; $23.99)
Kathy Griffin, star of Bravo’s Emmy Award–winning show My Life on the D-List, is, ironically, no longer a D-List star at all. With a hit television show, a huge fan base, and a #1 New York Times bestseller under her belt—not to mention Levi Johnston as arm candy—Kathy is a bona fide star. In fact, even her mother, Maggie Griffin, a regular on the show, has become a star in her own right. Now the author of her own book, TIP IT!, Maggie is close on Kathy’s heels—much to her daughter’s chagrin. In TIP IT! Maggie presents never-before-discussed personal information (including why she calls Bill O’Reilly her boyfriend), thoughts on life in Hollywood (why she keeps up with the Kardashians), catchphrases and points of view (the correct way to drink boxed wine? “Tip it!”), and what it’s like to play the spotlight-stealing mother to her hilarious, loudmouthed “D-List” daughter, both on camera and off the record. TIP IT! not only shows us Maggie’s feisty personality but is a heart-warming example of a mother and daughter who—no matter how exasperated one may make the other—love each other unconditionally.
