A Tribute to Greg Giraldo

There’s a new reason to make fun of celebrity roaster and comedian Greg Giraldo: He’s dead. This was first reported by comedian Jim Norton on Twitter and slowly verified by other media, but long after the “RIP Greg” messages hit Twitter.

Let’s hope for a roast-style funeral with Lisa Lampanelli and Jeffrey Ross as the funeral masters, live on Comedy Central. There would be no better way to send him off.

Fortunately, Giraldo, 44, who was hospitalized a few days ago after overdosing on prescription drugs, left us plenty to laugh about. Let’s watch.
