Joan Rivers had a long list of celebrity beefs: Gwyneth Paltrow, Fredricka Whitfield, Ray J, Kim Kardashian, Selena Gomez and Rihanna were just a small portion. Whether or not you thought her remarks were funny, the Daytime Emmy winner stood her ground, firing off unapologetic statements and fiercely making all of Hollywood her own stand-up act.
As reported here, the Fashion Police host has passed away at the age of 81 after suffering a cardiac arrest while undergoing surgery to fix damaged vocal cords. Rivers had been at Mount Sinai hospital since last Thursday, and on life support since Tuesday. Here are the top 10 celebrity beefs Joan Rivers had in her illustrious career.
10) Fredricka Whitfield
Rivers walked out on the CNN anchor for being negative during her promotion tour of her new book, Diary of a Mad Diva. She later spoofed the interview with David Letterman.
After the Seven actress poked fun at Rivers' plastic surgery, the comedienne responded, "I'm thrilled about this because it means she watches Fashion Police!"
When Oprah gained weight, Rivers mentioned, "You shouldn't let that happen to you. You're a pretty girl and you're single. You must lose the weight!"
When The Voice judge forget the lyrics to the national anthem during the Super Bowl, Rivers quipped, "Christina must have been thinking about food. That's why she forgot the words."
Rivers wasn't a fan of how Handler claimed the throne to late night TV: "She came out saying things like, 'I'm the first woman ever to do a late-night show.' She did this one day, and I followed her on the dais and I said, 'I guess everyone's forgotten the Johnny Carson show.'"
5) Selena Gomez and 4) Rhianna
When the two pop stars chimed in on the Israel-Palestine conflict, Rivers blasted the two: "Selena Gomez, who just came out of rehab, who I believe is not a college girl, Rihanna, who is beautiful and not the smartest bulb in the lamp; they see pictures of (dead) children and they go crazy," The talk show host continues, "I think Israel should show pictures of dead puppies and these girls will turn right around."
"Russell Brand has announced that he plans to write a series of children's books. First up: 'Horton Hears a Heroin Dealer.'"
During Kimye's much hyped wedding, Rivers teased, "As a wedding gift, Ray J gave Kim Kardashian his profits from their sex tape. It's 'Something Old' as well as 'Something Blew.'"
What would have Rivers said about the recent celebrity leaked topless photos? We only have a preview as Rivers once fired back at the Hunger Games actress, "I love that she's telling everyone how wrong it is to worry about retouching and body image, and meanwhile, she has been touched up more than a choir boy at the Vatican. Look at her posters,"
There is no else who can replace Joan River's sense of humor; she will surely be missed. Readers, what will you remember most about the sharp comedian?
