Joan Rivers goes on an absurd Emmy Nazi tirade



Red carpet fashion is important to Joan Rivers.  Rivers and her daughter, Melissa, have been making snarky comments on the event fashion of the stars on every awards show red carpet they were allowed access to for years.  And as Joan slowly seemed to be losing sanity, they slowly started losing TV airtime to do it.  Now, Joan and Melissa have been banished from our TV screens to the Internet to give their questionably qualified commentary on everything glamour.  Yes, red carpet fashion is so important to Joan Rivers it’s comparable to the Third Reich.

MyHollywood.com is the vehicle the Rivers used to spout a ridiculous Red Carpet Review, and AOL is refusing to link it. We don’t blame them.

The duo did their comedic routine for myhollywood.com on Sunday for the Emmys, and AOL was supposed to link to a chunk of it. But their segment was booted when AOL suits thought it was too offensive. In the routine, Joan cited the trend of men with “hair from the Third Reich. Tom Hanks – does that scream Nazi Germany? And . . . Julia Louis-Dreyfus – luckily she waxed her mustache. I know one of her neighbors, and if she leaves it for two or three weeks she looks just like Hitler . . . Heidi Klum? Super Nazi!”

Joan slurred through her typical bitchiness, Melissa relegated to her straight man role, which sometimes can be funny; calling Eva Longoria-Parker “Eve Longoria-PORKer” and saying Nicolette Sheridan was both worst dressed woman and best dressed man might pass as humor to critics of Desperate Housewives.  But the focus on the evening for them was comparing just about everyone to Nazis, from Ricky Gervais to Mariska Hargitay for “Third Reich” hair to Klum, who is German, being compared to Eva Braun, Hitler’s wife.  Melissa called her a “Super mom,” Joan responded, “Super Nazi!”

Just as delusional, Rivers outrage at being censored by AOL was again compared to Nazism.

Joan told us, “I was shocked that the suits at AOL have no humor . . . But that’s OK. I’ve been gagged more times than Linda Lovelace. AOL is like Holocaust deniers. They want us to believe 6 million Jews spent World War II in Boca and Anne Frank was in an attic for two years looking for Christmas ornaments.”

It’s time to put your mother in an assisted living facility, Melissa, she’s clearly lost the ability to differentiate between 2008 and 1945.  She lost the ability to differentiate between funny and not funny about 15 years ago.

  2. Kaiser says:

    Holy hell. Joanie, Joanie. That’s just horrible – what Joan needs is for NO ONE to pay attention to her assinine ramblings any more.

  3. Starla says:

    What the hell are these two still doing on the Red Carpet anyway? God I hate them. Joan “Pwastic Surgery” Rivers can barely talk, her face is so tight but oh so natural looking. Melissa is not any better. Get out the cattle prod & get these morons out. It’s time for someone who a has a grip on reality & knows what the hell is going on. Did I mention I hate them??

  4. KERRI says:

    Oh Dear, she’s beginning to resemble Michael Jackson, or is it the other way around? 😮

  5. vdantev says:

    She’s wearing a mask, right? Oh dear God, she isn’t !! 😯

  6. Syko says:

    The thing is, Joan, not a lot of people consider Nazis funny.

    And being German does not mean you’re a Nazi. Sheesh!

    You’d think, being Jewish, she’d be more sensitive. I think “sensitive” might not even be in her vocabulary.

  7. Dan says:

    Nice fugly pink gloves, Joan.

  8. DogRunner says:

    She’s nutz!

  9. Obvious says:

    That’s the only nice thing I have to say so therefor I won’t saying anythign other than,

    As jew, I am appauled by everything Joan. She is an insult do the culture as well as society and human kind.

  10. gg says:

    They remind me of those Playtex gloves people used to wear to wash dishes. “So flexible – you can pick up a dime!” Her nose looks just like Michael Jackson’s.

  11. geronimo says:

  12. Canadian Fan says:

    “AOL is like Holocaust deniers. They want us to believe 6 million Jews spent World War II in Boca and Anne Frank was in an attic for two years looking for Christmas ornaments.””

    maybe it’s me but that line is pretty efn funny 😆

  14. Cari says:

    Say goodnight, Joan.

    Time to go [away].

  15. Jess says:

    She looks like a statue from the wax museum.

  16. CL says:

    Her rant actually brought some chuckles from me.

  17. what says:

    she’s jewish?
    i’m so embarrassed.

  18. RReedy says:

    Is it just ME or do Joan and Melissa look like a pair of horses? Of course, one horse looks pretty deformed from all the plastic surgery. Still…….

  19. Lori says:

    Get a sense of humor people! Her lines are funny and its refeshing to see someone tell the truth instead of fawning all over these mannequins.

  20. journey says:

    to refer to people like tom hanks and the others as nazi-like is an insult. nazis were horrific mass murderers without conscience. it is not only demeaning to hanks, but it also belittles the true victims of genocide. anne franks would not find it humorous to have her experience tossed off as comparable to a boring night on the red carpet.

  21. Barbados Dagny says:

    I would never buy Joan’s book about plastic surgery. She had one operation too many. Melissa looks like the “lion woman”. I feel sorry for them.

  22. Karen says:

    Joan Rivers is a pathetic excuse for a human being. Why on earth would anyone celebrate or praise anything that comes from such a filthy mouthed hater?
    She’s one of the reasons so many people who never have met a Jewish person before have such a negative opinion of them. They all think that every Jewish person is loud-mouth, obnoxious, and filthy-mouthed. I makes me very sad.
