Comedienne Kathy Griffin is claiming that she and supposed ex-fiancé Steve Wozniak (the teddy bear billionaire co-founder of Apple) were never really engaged. In fact, she’s claiming that their relationship was pretty much platonic the whole time, even though she says they were dating. Griffin claims she and Wozniak never slept together – and she wore a giant fake engagement ring to the Emmys – which he didn’t even notice.
Kathy Griffin says she never went all the way with her ex, Apple co-founder billionaire Steve Wozniak. “We were dating, but were just friendly. I never f—-d him or anything!” she told Usmagazine.com during a visit to our NYC offices last Thursday. “The truth is,” she added, “we really were friends the whole time.” They definitely had their laughs together, she said.
“When we went to the Emmys together, I put on this really huge engagement ring and didn’t tell him,” she told Us. “There are these great photos of me posing with this great big fake diamond ring. He didn’t notice!” she added. “I was like, ‘Oh, by the way at the Emmys, I had on a fake engagement ring!’ And he was like, ‘Oh, that’s very funny.’”
She announced their split in April (they met in 2007 after he watched her perform). After they called it quits, she said “he met someone very quickly and then they [got] engaged.” No hard feelings, said Griffin, who plans to visit Wozniak (who appears on her Bravo reality show) in Saratoga, New York, on July 11. “I have had dinner with them, and she’s a thousand times more appropriate!” she said. “I hate to say it, but in the Bruce, Demi, Ashton [scheme of things], I’m the Bruce!”

My first reaction is that she’s trying to save face, but that doesn’t really seem like the self-deprecating Kathy Griffin we’ve come to know. It’s a little confusing that they were dating but “just friendly.” I thought dating happened once you felt more than friendly for someone, no? The thing about the engagement ring doesn’t surprise me at all – I know at least thirty guys that would never notice something like that unless someone pointed it out.
Griffin and Wozniak seemed like an unusual but cute match. From the interviews she did this past fall, it sure seemed like they were together in a more traditionally romantic sense. Either way they’re obviously still good friends, and it’s great that they can be happy for each other’s new romantic successes.

Go to one of her shows, she may be the funniest person working comedy shows. Never disappoints!
-
Love her. Kind of think that she might be doing her own D-List Punk’d on all of us - or perhaps she and Steve really were just friends, w/ nothing sexual.
Who knows? All new season of D-List is on!
-
I never noticed how truly huge her head was. Anyway, what kind of a woman goes around discussing things like that? I certainly don’t care if she slept with him or not, and it certainly isn’t my business. She has slept with worse, so she shouldn’t be bragging about not sleeping with Wozniak
-
I have a thing for redheads, and I used to think she was pretty funny, now she’s just annoying and sad.
-
I love her. She is so refreshing. Her goal on the show is to get oof the “D” list so it was obviously in good fun.
Side note- Bravo makes the best reality stuff on TV…Top Chef, Workout, Flipped Out…remember Blow Out? -
First off, Wozniak lives in Saratoga, CALIFORNIA, not NY, and second, he’s been dating the woman he “left Kathy for” for at least three years. Her name is Michelle Rose, and she’s been known around silicon valley as Woz’s girlfriend forever.

She’s one of the few comics out there that consistently makes me laugh out loud. I’m bummed that they aren’t really together, though. I was hoping they’d get married!
-
She’s great. She has everything financially so it is understandable that she wouldn’t sleep with him. On another note, I cannot help but marvel how she went full on into the plastic surgery mode right after working w/Brook Shields. Imagine having to look at gorgeous Brook all day? That would send most people to the doctor’s office.

a billionaire and nothing happened? i sure would have done something if it was me. crazy woman.

attention hungry loser.

He just used her to go to The Emmy’s !!!
P.S. You can get tickets from The Academy. Don’t tell anyone.

KATHY GRIFFIN ROCKS! You can totally tell when you watch the show that she, at least, is completely not attracted to him. And he doesn’t even seem interested, no???
She is hilarious though. Totally agree with mollination!

If you watch her show it’s clear they are only friends. In fact, I kinda always thought that was the point! I thought she was kidding the whole time?
