George Michael gave Dr. Phil McGraw a little tough love at his concert Wednesday night at the L.A. Forum.

“I probably shouldn’t say this, but it’s very me. Dr. Phil is here, and in the sea of faces he has this miserable look – he’s been doing it for the last hour,” the British singer said from the stage at McGraw, who was in the audience. “Maybe you need to see someone about that.”

A source at the show described the jibe from Michael as “very playful.”

Still, after Michael reprimanded Dr. Phil for scowling, many of the fans booed the TV counselor.

“He was a good sport about it,” said another observer.

McGraw wasn’t the only celeb ready to go-go at Michael’s show. Others who caught Michael on his current tour include Sharon Stone, Bo Derek, Lisa Rinna, Corey Feldman, Pink, Randy Jackson, JC Chasez, Cyndi Lauper, Kathy Griffin and Jonny Lee Miller with his fiancé Michelle Hicks.

A rep for Michael had no comment.

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.

Bravo’s A-List Awards took place at the Hammerstein Ballroom Wednesday night and it sounded more like a dysfunctional family reunion than an actual awards show. The whole show was pretty much a circle jerk for D-listers.

Kathy Griffin hosted and being the “hip” and “with it” comedian that she is, told jokes about Miley Cyrus getting VD and about Mariah Carey being old. She also said some other stuff, but I’m too tired to type it so I’ll just quote Page Six. Pay close attention to the swearing. Notice how Kathy becomes 10 times more edgy when she throws those f-bombs:

“That motherfucker George Clooney ruined it for all of us,” she yelled. “He decided to donate his Oscar bag to some bullshit environmental organization and ruined it for me.”

Griffin, currently on the cover of A Bear’s Life - a magazine dedicated to macho, “furry” gays known as “bears” - admitted she watched “Living Lohan” and is obsessed with Dina and Ali Lohan.

“I wish I could have had a manager mom out at clubs fucking guys to get me roles,” Griffin cracked. “My mom’s at home drinking a box of wine.”

There’s a magazine dedicated to hairy gay guys? You’re goddamn right there is. The pinnacle of achievement for any actor or actress is to grace the cover of A Bear’s Life and Kathy Griffin has done it. She’s made it. In the venerable words of Kathy, “FUCK YEA!!” But Kathy Griffin wasn’t the only one happy, Lauren Hutton was too. If you can’t see the video of Lauren’s acceptance speech up above after receiving a lifetime achievement award, let me or rather, let Page Six, yet again, describe it. It rivaled that of Halle Berry’s Oscar meltdown.

Actress Lauren Hutton, who accepted a lifetime achievement honor, slurred that she hadn’t slept in 46 hours, rubbed her crotch with the big silver award and mumbled “sluts” on stage.

After that, one clap turned into thunderous applause. Wow. The Bravo A-List Awards sounds like the classiest show out there. It makes the Oscars look like a used up whore. With VD!
