“But get this, it’s Chris Pine who Harry Styles spat on!” she continued. “So he doesn’t want to be here and get this question for him,” Griffin added, referring to Kimmel. “The reason you called me is you know, I’ve been vilified all my career,” she said, joking that she was even spat on by Harry Styles once: “But I asked you to.
