Who knew a sword from a porn company could get you in so much trouble?
Comedy icon Kathy Griffin just sat down with
Kathy’s story starts all the way back in 2007. She was hosting the GayVN Awards and NakedSword’s Sister Roma was there to present her with an official NakedSword sword. Kathy was apparently fond of the sword and never got rid of it. So when she was under investigation and had to disclose all of her weapons, the sword “was suddenly federal evidence.”
“I’m assuming it was Jeff Sessions himself along with POTUS who initiated the opening of the federal investigation on me by the Secret Service as well as the U.S. Attorney’s Office. But when all of that happened, they had my attorney do a search in my home, and ‘I was like, OK, fine.’ Then, during my under oath interrogation ― because I want people to know I didn’t just, like, get a phone call. I had to actually be interrogated under oath,” Kathy said in the interview. “And they said, ‘Do you have any weapons?’ and I was like, ‘I actually have a sword,’ and they were like, ‘Oh boy.'”
Apparently a sword is still considered a weapon even if it’s a NakedSword! Who knew?
“What I explained to them is that I had this sword from hosting the gay porn awards and I ended up describing the plot of this gay porn called Justice to the feds,” Griffin said. “I got that sword and hosted the GayVNs 10 years ago, but it was significant for me to host the Str8UpGayPorn Awards this year. Not only was Sister Roma there again introducing me, which was great, but sure enough, the NakedSword porn company was one of the sponsors again! I had to half jokingly tell them, ‘Oh, my God, this is great!’ [Lowers voice to a conspiratorial whisper] Don’t give me another sword.’ [Laughs] Like, let’s just go with a commemorative plaque instead. But it all came full circle, baby. There was Sister Roma, there was the NakedSword company and there was gay porn ― and all of it was about defending the First Amendment, dammit!”
So how many straight federal agents learned what NakedSword was because of Kathy Griffin? How many “straight” federal agents had to play dumb and act like they didn’t know what she was talking about? How many went home to whip out their cocks and watch Justice right after she was done describing it? Sound off below and be sure to read the entire interview with Kathy over at HuffPost.
