“I fainted at the end of my show. I’m embarrassed more than anything,” she said.
“Anyway I’m in Dublin, just leaving the show,” Griffin continued, “And I had one more story. I had five more minutes. I had gone for almost two and a half hours.”
Griffin then went on to make a reference to daytime talk show host Wendy Williams, who suffered a similar incident when she had an on-air fainting spell on Halloween.
“This one’s for you, Wendy Williams. Girl down. I had a girl down moment,” Griffin joked.
