Sarah Palin isn't the only one surprised by her daughter Bristol's on-again engagement to Levi Johnston.

Kathy Griffin -- Johnston's date at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards last August -- was taken aback as well.

"Oh y did I trust my heart 2 a 19 yr old ice-fisherman/babydaddy from Wasila?" the comedienne, 49, Tweeted on Wednesday.

"Like Britney I'm putting myself on a 5150 psych hold," she cracked, referring to the involuntary psychiatric hold in which Britney Spears was placed in 2008.

Soon after their Teen Choice date, Griffin joked that she and Johnston were embarking on a romance, cooing about his "chocolate beautiful eyes" on CNN.

Bristol, 19, and Levi, 20, reveal exclusively in the new Us Weekly that they got engaged again two weeks ago.

The couple reconnected three months ago while working out custody arrangements for their son Tripp, 18 months. "I really thought we were over," Levi tells Us Weekly. "So when I went, I had no hope. I think we both just started talking -- and then we took Tripp for a walk."

    I know he's young, but doesn't he at least have some sense of taste. She's a hag. What is it that makes her a celeb? Does she have talent? I've yet to witness any.

    July 15, 2010 - 7:22am grossed out Says: @ "anonymous" No, it makes you a child molester. Congratulations." "Grossed Out" - a 44yr old sleeping with a 19yr old neighbor does not make them a child molester. >18yr is of legal age. Read some law books and get your facts straight.

    Kathy Griffin what are you doing with a 20 year old rookie? Isn't this ironic here? Where I live in Los Angeles, there are men (ages 18 to 25); there are these going out with teen women as young as 15 to 19. Kathy take me - I'm 38 year old single hunk. I prefer a mature woman. You won't have to be on a 5150 hold. I'll make you very happy each day.

    Kathy makes me physically sick to my stomach to hear her voice and see her face. One Larry King she kept running her mouth and would not let her mother get a word in.Disliked her even more when she got an award and make the awful remarks about GOD. The minute I see her promos on TV I change the channel.Pretty is as pretty does and you are ugly!

    Kathy is hilarious! I watch her show everytime its on! Get over it tea bag haters, lol

  • July 15, 2010 - 9:38am OMG "grossed out"

    First of all, I'll state the OBVIOUS. It was all a joke. Secondly, even if it was true, Levi is 19 yrs old and an ADULT. How would that make anyone a child molester? You are truly an idiot. Get a sense of humor.

  • July 15, 2010 - 9:10am Uptight Ain't Right

    Good grief. What a bunch of uptight sticks in the mud on this board. The whole Levi Johnston thing was a joke, but if you have no sense of humor like most of you people, you wouldn't get it. I love Kathy Griffin. She's hysterical. So what if she's vulgar with her jokes. Don't watch her show and don't watch her comedy routine. Personally, if most people would dislodge the stick they have permanently stuck up their butts they'd be a lot happier. Life is short, why spend it acting like an uptight prude?

  • July 15, 2010 - 7:22am grossed out

    @ "anonymous" No, it makes you a child molester.Congratulations.

  • July 15, 2010 - 6:37am yingzy

    levi just wanted to be famous and he's using everything, even hooking up with a much older woman, just to get the fame he wanted....

  • July 15, 2010 - 12:11am Gemma

    LOL! Take a chill pill people. Kathy G is an entertainer... none of it was serious... and if you paid attention around election time at all - LOTS of people bashed Sarah Palin. None of the Levi stuff was serious and you're pathetic if you ever really thought she was. It's her job to put on a show and be funny... Ever heard of sarcasm?

  • July 14, 2010 - 11:05pm blingbling

    Levi did her while in Alaska.

  • July 14, 2010 - 10:35pm B

    can someone make this woman go away.. i think the world has enough of her not-funny jokes.. attention wh**e..

  • July 14, 2010 - 9:42pm jbnj

    Kathy only reason to go out with Levi is because she has such a pathological hatred for Sarah Palin, that she would do anything to humiliate her and the her family. I'm glad Levi was man enough to admitt the bad things he said about the Palins were lies said out of anger and he apologized for them. I wish Levi and Bristol all the happiness and good luck in thier engagement and future life together.
