The criticized photos with the decapitated head of a doll similar to President Donald Trump is costing comedian Kathy Griffin dearly.

The CNN news network announced Wednesday that it will no longer have the irreverent humorist in his special New Year's Eve program, which he presented with Anderson Cooper for 9 years.

"CNN has terminated its agreement with Kathy Griffin to appear on our New Years Eve program," the Atlanta, GA-based network explained in a statement.

Those responsible for the communications company made the decision to terminate his relationship with Griffin despite the fact that the comedian had apologized in a video posted on networks on Tuesday night, after her session with photographer Tyler Shields caused a angry controversy for its strong content.

"I'm a comedian," said Griffin. “I went over the line. I pushed it, and crossed it. I went over The image is too disturbing. I understand that it is offensive. It wasn't funny, I get it.”

The also actress noted that she had asked Shields to withdraw the snapshots.

What was meant to be a grace did not even make his friend Anderson Cooper laugh, who declared himself "horrified" by the photographs.

"It is clearly disgusting and totally inappropriate," added the presenter in a tweet.

President Trump also went to the networks to show his rejection.

Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11-year-old son, Barron, were very shocked by this, "said the president. "How sick".
