Profoundly Self-Aware Joan Rivers Storms Out of Interview

Dame Ednas shtick is tired and always the same. The fact that so many of you run so hot or cold on Joan is another reason why she is so succesful and so many other comedians look up to her.

"The fact that so many of you run so hot or cold on Joan is another reason why she is so succesful and so many other comedians look up to her."

Same can be said of former US VP Dick Cheney in a different context.

I don't expect every joke to work, nor do I expect every thing a comedian says to be a pearl, but this is very desperate, junior high-level stuff.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Some of you seem to have little insight into show business. If you think Joan looked desperate in her documentary, then welcome to the life of any working entertainer. Its always about the next gig and the older you get the harder it gets. Isn't Lisa Rinna dancing in Depends on TV right now. It's a tough business.

Rivers is a legend and the majority of comedians are thin skinned. I've read many of their bios and they all come from deeply insecure places-most are depressives who tend to cry a lot. It doesn't surprise.

I can't jump on this bashing of Rivers. She has done far too much and has an incredible work ethic. I think that's admirable.

She was using this interview for a PR stunt. It is quite obvious. Both this and her recent Michelle is a Tranny comment. It is plotted and contrived. Look, it has her name all over the inter web just as her book is coming out!

It's really a shame and rather pathetic that thinking someone is amateurish and has no sense of humor ... even though she is a comedienne ... is better than not thinking of her at all.

Really?

That's sad.

There are a lot of repugnant people I think about. I hope they're happy that I'm thinking they're repugnant. Apparently, that's a "good thing."

Seriously f*cked up.

I don't think Joan has any tear ducts left. If she does, they've probably been pullled up somewhere on the top of her head.

Dame Edna--she just asks where someone is from, raises her eyebrow ,and we all laugh.

I can say with absolute certainty that no, we all don't.

It's always the same thing. "They don't care how mean I am because they're all rich. And I am NOT MEAN."

I guess if Joan had to admit that these are human beings with hurtable feelings, her entire reality would collapse.

I love how she says, "They make 28 million a picture! What do they care what I think of their dress?"

Yet she cares what a reporter who makes a fraction of what she makes thinks of her in an interview.

What's good for the goose, baby ...

I guess if Joan had to admit that these are human beings with hurtable feelings, her entire reality would collapse.

She doesn't have to because she's a comedienne! It's just her job! And apparently, doing it for a really long time and making a lot of money excuses anyone for any kind of behavior. Sanctuary!

And I definitely believe that intentional cruelty is, in fact, vicious.

At any rate, Rivers is indeed smart and successful enough not to care about anyone but herself and maybe her daughter. She can be self-deprecating, but it's okay as long as she is in control of what is said about her because she's made it clear that she's the ultimate hypocrite when insulting or criticizing others. I did think she was funny at one time long ago, but now, she's run out of credit on deserving respect.

It's really a shame and rather pathetic that thinking someone is amateurish and has no sense of humor ... even though she is a comedienne ... is better than not thinking of her at all.

Remember when everyone praised Sarah Palin or Ann Coulter for being an opportunist? They just wanted people to talk about them, too. How admirable!

Besty...you don't really believe that Joan gave a rat's ass what that interviewer thought of her, do you? That stunt probably sold another couple of thousand copies of her book.

Oh, she's cared about what people thought of her in the past and cried about it. But the interviewer never expressed what she thought of Joan. She just brought up the obvious questions because...it's her job.

That stunt probably sold another couple of thousand copies of her book.

If it sold more books to suckers who thought it was a "stunt", then it would have sold to them anyway. Devoted fans of legendary divas are unflappable, regardless of how said diva performs or behaves. It's how Madonna goes double platinum on any album no matter what's on it. And of course, there are those who simply revere bad behavior. Even Mel Gibson has fans.

And it's all calculated and staged.

I repeat (and amend)... 82 years old and still...performing stand-up to sell-out crowds, writing and selling books, starring in two successful T.V. series (Fashion Police on E, and Joan Knows Best? on Lifetime), starring in a successful self-produced Internet series, In Bed With Joan, continues to hock her wares on QVC (where she has achieved unprecedented success), makes frequent guest appearances on a multitude of shows, and, most importantly (especially to her), CONTINUES TO MAKE NEWS!

She's a fighter and a survivor, and she's funny! At least to me (and her millions of fans). I love her!

So let's keep talking about her and keep this thread alive! Joan would love it!
