Joan Rivers says Barack Obama should have pinned back his ears

obama meets with party 060109
Frozen-faced comedian Joan Rivers has a new interview in the NY Times Magazine in which she’s promoting her latest book “Men are Stupid… and They Like Big Boobs.” The 75 year-old admits to multiple plastic surgeries, including two face lifts, lip injections every six months, and liposuction. She also confirms to the NY Times that she was undergoing liposuction the day her husband, producer Edgar Rosenberg, committed suicide in 1987, adding “who knew?” As for what she thinks of future President Barack Obama’s looks, Rivers says he should have pinned his ears back:

Do you think you’re a plastic-surgery addict?
No. I think I’m in a business where you have to look good, and it’s totally youth-oriented…

Don’t you think most of us want to be loved for who we are, as opposed to some artificially enhanced version of ourselves?
That will never happen. Are you out of your mind?

Don’t you think you are lovable?
Let’s see how lovable I’d be if I wasn’t sitting in this penthouse.

What do you think of Barack Obama’s appearance?
I think he should have pinned the ears back years ago. They really annoy me. He represents my country now — pin back the ears!

Hillary Clinton?
She shouldn’t do anything. You want a woman to look a little weathered if they’re going to represent the country. I don’t want a secretary of state in a slit dress or the tongue hanging out.

Rivers certainly shouldn’t be criticizing anyone’s appearance. Her face is so waxen it looks like a poorly made mask. I never really noticed Obama’s ears until I saw caricatures of him with giant ears. Rivers is like a walking caricature with giant cheekbones, puffed up lips, and a too-small nose. Surely she was joking, but just like her constant Nazi references during her Emmy fashion critique, it wasn’t funny.

  1. Rivers was funny, once upon a time. Now, she’s just annoying and she needs to learn how to shut up. I don’t believe anyone cares what she thinks about Obama or anyone else.

  2. Big deal. She’s a comedian, it’s what she does. She knows what she looks like, it’s as much a part of her routine as any of the barbs she throws at everyone else. And Obama does have quite prominent ears. People are so sensitive.

  3. She’s joking around, all commedians are scrambling to find things to make fun of, of Barack Obama for. We’re lucky the only things they can think of is that he has big ears and can’t bowl.

  5. …This coming from a woman who can’t move her face. She hasn’t been funny in decades.

  6. Apparently she’s never had a guy with big ears go down on her, you hold the ears to keep his head in the right position. Just ask Charlize, she does it all the time with Will Smith.

  8. That’s a very superficial comment from Joan Rivers. Who cares about a pair of ears? It’s what’s BETWEEN the ears that’s important.

  10. Her face should be ‘pinned’ to a dart board. This is another has-been who is making the mistake that she’s still relevant.

  11. How can she tell? Her eyes are so narrow from all that plastic surgery, she can barely open them.
