91 years ago today, Joan Alexandra Molinsky was born and became known to the world as 'Joan Rivers', one of the greatest female comediennes of all time. Rivers became a comedienne, actress, best-selling author, talk show host, writer, producer, and business entrepreneur. She died on September 4, 2014 after complications from throat surgery.
Remembering Joan Rivers on what would be her 91st birthday

I get the whole "trailblazer" thing and the admiration that succeeding generations of women comics had for her. But even from the Ed Sullivan days I never found her funny. Audacious and breathtakingly rude? Yes, but that could never be confused with funny. While I never cared or thought much about Elizabeth Taylor, I truly loathed the fat-shaming (before that phrase even existed) that Rivers subjected Taylor to. It was mean, disrespectful, and misogynistic.

It was supposed to be a simple endoscopy procedure.
Gastro-enterologist Lawrence Cohen, MD, who was the medical director of the clinic until resigning after Ms. Rivers's death, reportedly found a polyp when he performed the endoscopy. Reports say he then let Ms. Rivers's personal otolaryngologist, who was neither credentialed nor privileged at the ASC, perform a biopsy on her vocal cords. The throat doctor, identified as Gwen Korvin, MD, was only authorized to observe Dr. Cohen. It's unclear whether Ms. Rivers had given Dr. Korvin consent to perform a biopsy.
The airway manipulation during Dr. Korvin's attempted biopsy likely triggered a laryngospasm, which led to cardiac arrest. Attempts to rescue Ms. Rivers failed, which has fueled speculation that there wasn't an anesthesiologist in the room.

Once she started the red carpet coverages, I found that as well. She was just plain nasty to some celebrities for no good reason. Gillian Anderson being one of them.
Her documentary was very revealing. She not only took care of Melissa and her grandson, but had employees and kids of employees that she financially supported as well. I wonder if she felt she had no choice but to keep going because so many people depended upon her.

The JR documentary A Piece of Work, made by a pair of Brits--I believe it came out a few years or so before she passed--was fascinating. She really never stopped, and I don't think that was for the cameras. It was my favorite film of that yeah. She had that cool apartment right near fifth Avenue and 59th St., where I paid my respects a few days after she died. There were many other people there as well, a few cops, a few barricades.
I saw Disney's Tarzan on Broadway when it was in previews. Intermission came, and when I turned around as she was across the aisle, one row back. I wish I knew then what I learned later on: she was perfectly fine with people approaching her to chat, etc. A missed opportunity
And yes, regarding Tarzan., the first 15 minutes were freaking amazing. The rest, not so much.

And how did he ruin her career? The only misfire was the FOX show. He was the one who helped engineer all the stuff on the Tonight Show.
Maybe Carson shouldn't have been such a shitbag and given Joan the same treatment he gave David Brenner who also had a talkshow that aired opposite his on ABC around the same time. There was no problem welcoming Brenner back with open arms after his show tanked. Why not the same for Joan, aside from the obvious?

I've known a few people like Joan Rivers. Brilliant minds, racing thoughts, hilarious, often wildly inappropriate and sometimes cruel. I enjoyed Joan during her career as well as the documentary near the end of her life. I can see her supporting trump, the taxes thing and that she new him long before he went into politics. He's always been an ass and a creep but originals like Joan often don't judge others the way more rational people do. He inhabited the same realm of wealthy people who don't follow rules that she did. She might hurt some feelings and offend people while he'd destroy democracy and jail respectable people if he gets another chance. Big difference between the two.

That is in the documentary "A Piece of Work". Joan was never known to be PC, and anyone who knew her style of comedy knew she went after everyone.

R64 She didn't go after everyone.
Joan never made jokes about AIDS patients, blacks (individuals yes like Oprah but seldom "the blacks"...), Jews (she'd make some about relatives but very PC & nothing like Jews are better at business, etc.). She did make a few gay jokes that made me cringe & she never had anything nice to say about any lesbian/bi famous woman ever. No Rosie, Gillian, Ellen, Melissa, etc. I don't know why they seemed to get under her skin, but they did. She obviously didn't like the way many dressed on her fashion shows but it seemed more personal than that. On the red carpet she seemed like she couldn't send them packing fast enough. Joan's gay shows on her talk shows were always gay men related & never lesbian related. Maybe 1 show at the most (for tokenism).
Joan was a superfan of all republican presidents as she was a lifelong one herself. No democrats. Joan & Melissa loved GOPer Steve Forbes (who had supergay Malcolm Forbes as his father) even when he came after THE GAYS to appeal to religious right voters back in the 90s as a Hail Mary campaign pass. His anti-gay rhetoric bombed & he slithered away off the public stage. The Rivers never apologized for dismissing his attacks on our community. I never liked either one after they signed onto his ANTI gay hate campaign. Money Money Money is all they both truly cared about.

Joan's private persona was very different from her public one. She volunteered delivering meals to sick and needy people for decades (including many Thanksgivings and XMas holidays) She also donated time volunteering for the Red Cross.
She paid medical bills for her staff's families, and paid tuitions for their kids to go to college.
She hosted the first celebrity AIDS fundraiser back in 1984 in Hollywood, and make frequent appearances at AIDS fundraisers throughout the 80's and 90's. She also left a sizeable amount of her 150-million-dollar estate to AIDS charities when she passed.

The sad truth for us to realize at R70 is that if Steve Forbes started trashing the Jewish community for right wing votes back in the 1990s the Rivers duo would've dropped him in a heartbeat.

Melissa has said that there were four members of the Rosenberg family: Edgar, Joan, Melissa, and “The Career.” The Career was the most important member that everyone else had to revolve around.
Joan said that once her Fox show was canceled, Edgar became severely depressed, to the point that Joan felt it was detrimental to the other members of the family (of course including The Career), so she threw Edgar out of the house. I think Joan said that one of the reasons she did that was because he refused to get medical help. He then committed suicide.
When The Career is the most important member of a family, I think it’s likely there will be suffering of all kinds to the other members of the family.
