Was she pre-deceased by Mr. Phyllis? When I was a kid and she was on Ed Sullivan that was one of the funniest things I had ever heard. I was glad to see Mr. Phyillis had his own label on Joan's index card catalogue.

I'm really heartbroken by this news. For some reason, it's hitting me harder than usual. I really thought she might pull through. Happy that she had a full life and career, didn't suffer, and went peacefully. But it's crazy how you can be so alive and vibrant one minute, and so NOT, the next. Rest in peace, Joanie. And thanks for all the laughs! I'm going to miss you a lot!

“A few days after 9/11,” Jonathan Van Meter recalled in a 2010 New York magazine article, “she called and asked me if I wanted to meet her for lunch at Windows on the Ground.”

This strikes me as funny in light of the 9/11 Memorial Cheese Plate.

"Somebody's gotta get control of Sharon Osbourne's tweets: "My heart goes out to Melissa and Edgar. Love and respect from the Osbourne family to you both.""



Even though it's off and odd, I have to believe she meant Cooper (whose legal first name is, I read somewhere, Edgar).

Whoopi could learn the value of punctuation: "My friend Joan Rivers has passed away once again…"

Rob Sheffeild's obit in Rolling Stone is brilliant. Comparing her to Morrisey is sheer genius. It also includes detailed examples for those who think the jokes in this thread are "insensitive" and thus completely miss the point.

Perhaps, after that, his bitter and jaded view of the world will finally get a little better.

I urge people (not the headband, I said people) to read the Sheffield piece:

The night Whitney Houston died, Joan Rivers ripped her apart on Fashion Police. Whitney was the #1 Must-See Look of the Week on Joan's Friday-night E! bitchfest, but not for the right reasons. They showed a papparazzi photo of Whitney looking rough in a T-shirt and jeans, escorted by R&B stud/reality-TV star Ray J. "What a chic way to come off a bender," Joan said. "She is living the American dream. Whitney Houston has gone from ****ing crazy to ****ing Ray J." Then she did a joke about asking Whitney if she’d really blown her voice. Joan croaked and wheezed: "'It's not true, Joan! And I will always love you!'"

A few hours later, Whitney drowned in her hotel bathtub, so E! wisely yanked the episode—it only aired once. (It lives on in my DVR — I was a hardcore Joan fan and Fashion Police junkie.) But it sums up Joan at her nastiest — she'd kick you when you were down, all the way to death’s door. She was gloriously mean — so mean that she would have responded to all the sentimental deathbed tributes with one of her oh, grow up. She died the way she lived — making a scene, complicating other people’s holiday weekends, generally being a pain in the ass. She was the Morrissey of her generation. I miss her already.


There's a lot more.

I'm reading the piece, Namo. This paragraph nearly made me soil myself:

'But as far as this fan is concerned, Joan did her most brilliant work as the madwoman in E!'s attic. She spent her golden years on Fashion Police, a very strange show where Joan sat in a cheap-looking studio with three minions paid to laugh at the boss' jokes. (Watching these sad ducks compete to laugh loudest was a sadistic kick—the closest we’ll ever get to seeing one of Stalin’s Politburo meetings.) In weekly bits like "Bitch Stole My Look" or "Guess Me From Behind," she trashed celebs she’d clearly never heard of before. Showing a picture of Florence and the Machine, Joan cracked, "I hope the machine is a vibrator."'

I laughed so hard at Jordan's work, particularly the words on the gravestone, tears came to my eyes.

Rob, I think the Sheffield piece is really astute. And the comparison to Morrissey strikes me as apt because he's another one whose early work entertained me but who lost me when he got just a little too nutzo and mean.
