R.I.P

They say celebs always die within weeks of each other. Maybe it's true.

Easily the funniest woman of all time.

Wow, that's crazy. I know she was old at 81 but she looked healthy and full of energy considering her age. My wife loves watching Fashion Police on E.

RIP:(

I didn't even know she was in the hospital, she had a vocal chord surgery and apparently died because of that. If she never had that surgery, she probably could've lived a few more years.

Easily the funniest woman of all time.

Blazed a wide trail for a lot of other women to follow...

Was reading she got her first big break on Johnny Carson show, Bill Cosby recommended her when they need somebody at the last second... she did 5 minutes of stand up at the very end of the show, afterwards backstage Carson told her she was going to be a big star and invited her back for a full segment the following week

Best photo I could find (she seriously looks better with cake on her face):

Good riddance. :party:


:facepalm How's that whole " I'm a raging asshole" persona working out for you? Getting you where you want to be or are you still wondering why everybody thinks you're a fu*king clown?

oh the horror

Apparently Immortal has a personal vendetta against Joan Rivers
For some odd reason.


Yes, Joan has made some ridiculous remarks. Who cares?

I think everyone saw this coming. I loved her comedy. Very few people are as fast as her. She would destroy you in a roast. There was little you could do because she did not give a sh*t what you had to say about her.

Amazing talent. I wish she could have pulled through.

Never found her funny, found her quite obnoxious and extremely hypocritical whenever I've seen her on those fashion shows my girlfriend watches and she calls people ugly. Didn't wish any ill will on her though.

But anyway is it true she was actually have plastic surgery to remove folds of skin/wrinkles around her throat? Before the original reports and before she was on life support another site I was on had someone claiming that was what it was and later that day I saw news articles saying that as well. Is this vocal chord thing a cover up?

Interestingly, there is an investigation by NY health department about the surgery going on.

Really? I was thinking what I had heard was likely speculation/rumour/people wanting to believe but maybe there's something to it.

Its actually quite sad. See her here, so young and full of life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpPCFoXXhF0

And think of how it all turned out. The terrible plastic surgery, the fact that so many people hate her, how she turned out so hateful herself, etc.

Prime Rivers was before my time and probably every poster here...I don't think many here were into standup comedy in the 70s.

Anyway, I'm hearing her being compared to Howard Stern...Rivers was to female comedians what Howard Stern was to radio. She was edgy for the time and it opened the doors for a flood of other female comedians. Female comedians today basically view Rivers as a God.

Moms Mabley Phyllis Diller Lily Tomlin are the only other three that can compare.

Yeah I don't get this... She was a vile human being and we're supose to mourn her like she was a saint or something.. celebrity worship has taken a new low.

As the thread starter, I want to point out that I said nothing about mourning her. I just shared the thread because I didn't see anyone else post about it.
As far as I'm concerned, she made her money doing the same garbage these companies, like TMZ, do, which is obsess over celebrities and give Americans pure filth to encompass their lives.
At the end of the day, though, I will still say R.I.P
Mourning not required.

Though I was never a fan of hers, she wasn't vile. These Forever Alones on this site just couldn't handle her calling out their favorite celebs.

Eh.. I ain't even talking about her comedic work. She was a despicable individual.. Do you not think she played a role in her late husband offing himself?

oh .. I don't know the story behind that .. what did she do ?

DwnShft2Xcelr8
09-05-2014, 02:28 AM
To be quite honest... I don't and have never watched any of her work. No straight male would.. never was an oscar/ red carpet rider like some of you suspect folk.

As a straight male with desire to fukk pu$$y, I've run across her shows while hanging out with straight females, unlike some of you fakkit folk.

Separated with him. A week later, he killed himself.
Only know this because it was discussed on the news earlier today. I didn't even know she had a daughter until today.

Nobody here, including myself, saw prime Joan Rivers. The version we saw was the old, washed-up version of Joan. The fact that she was able to stay relevant into her 80's is impressive. RIP.

Good.
Can't say I feel bad for her after I read her comments on Palestine. Hope she rots in hell if there is one.

^^^ Rivers w/o makeup


So she looks creepy no doubt, lots of surgery...but I will say this, she looks like a creepy 40-50 year old, I wouldn't guess that she is 80 here.

IMO while the surgery made her look strange it definitely kept her looking younger than she really was.
