Griffin says the tour has been a “panacea for everything that ails me” after filing for divorce from Bick in December 2023 after four years of marriage and her having surgery to repair her vocal cords to repair damage from lung cancer surgery in June.

“Every show is truly a gift,” she says. “I know I’m a braggart, but I’ve gotten a standing ovation at the end of every show and I’ve been to 45 cities so far.”

“I’m so grateful to have a vocal fold implant,” she adds, before teasing, “I call it my ‘tit crew’ because it’s the only implant I have.”
