Why Doesn't Graviton Become "red-shifted"...

It is said that as a massive star collapses, it appears to become increasingly red-shifted over time, as well as vanishingly dim. An outside observer will percieve the star to be eternaly collapsing as Alex said, therefore, as with gravity, one should always be able to still detect escaping photons (has nothing to do with Hawking/Bekinstein radiation). This could be interpreted as saying that a blackhole never actualy turns completely black, but simply "asymptotically approaches" the appearence of being black. (Once again, please ignore Hawking-radiation phenomenon).
