Princess Die 1,864 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Joan Rivers was an idol of mine. One thing I admired about her was that what she said were never really "insults", but more like "reminders" that we all have flaws. It almost always came from a place of compassion. Anyone can dispute this, but we lost a cherished gem that has long been grounded into bedrock that makes up the awe-invoking behemoth that is Pop Culture: A honest, frank look at ourselves. Nod if you wanna make love with the enemy. ❤ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VioletGaGa 1 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Some guest on her show from way back (I don't know which show) said this about being on. It was pretty funny. He was so nervous being interviewed by Joan because of her known one-liners that he sprayed deodorant in his eye before going on and they had to call a doctor. He said she was very sweet. But he watched her interview Lucille Ball while there and here's what he said about watching that interview. I don't know why, but this moved me. "But, in reality, Joan was not the Queen Bitch she liked the public to believe she was. At the time of my encounter with her, I watched her conducting a nightmarish television interview with the legendary Lucille Ball. On this occasion, there was nothing much to love about Lucy. She was visibly drunk, rude, offhand and dismissive towards Rivers. Joan, keeping her voice gentle and her face warm and sympathetic, showed no sign of noticing the great star’s hostility. I expressed my astonishment at Ball’s behaviour and asked Joan: ‘Why were you so nice to her when she was really horrible to you?’ Her face softened and assumed an entirely different character from the acerbic and abrasive diva the public usually saw. ‘Honey,’ she said, ‘Lucy battles the demons of depression and I’ve been there myself. She’s made a lot of people laugh during her not very happy life. I think we owe her, don’t you?" this made me tear up :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great post. I didn't think I would be this sad about her passing. I guess I took her for granted. :( Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLuna 12,732 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Can't say I'm shocked, I mean I think we all saw it coming, but it's still incredibly sad. May she rest in peace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 375 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Joan Rivers paved the way for people like Kathy Griffin, Margaret Cho, Chelsea Handler & others.

Emvee 7,686 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well ****. Always sad when you hear another human being just couldn't make it through. She obviously had many more years ahead of her... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 375 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 And the amazing thing is, she was literally still working until just last week, at the age of 81. One of the hardest working people in the entertainment industry, nothing could stop her! So much respect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
