Aging Windbag Doesn’t Know When To Shut The Fuck Up

Posted by thelanetrain on June 20, 2008

Earlier this week, actress, comedienne, and plastic surgery enthusiast Joan Rivers was on England’s version of The View (called Loose Women…teehee) to promote her one-woman show debuting in London. According to Defamer, the conversation steered towards other famous celebrities, and eventually, Russell Crowe. Rivers, poised and ready for comment, looked directly at the camera and called Mr. Crowe “a fucking shit”.

Now we young folk wouldn’t be too surprised about such potty language, but unsurprisingly, the women on the show were shocked. Apparently Rivers didn’t realize that the show was absolutely live and the comment immediately sparked waves of complains to the station, including one from a woman in Leeds who was:

“Gob-smacked when that gormless woofter Rivers whinged with ‘er grotty loo-mouth on me telly.”

BLIMEY!

Rivers was then kicked right off the set of the show and didn’t even get her goody bag for appearing as a guest. Said Rivers:

“I have won an Emmy, been nominated for a Tony award, done every show and become an icon and when people ask me what is left in my career I have always said I don’t know, but I have never been forcibly thrown out of a TV studio. It is another milestone.”

Well good for you! But you did forget one thing. This isn’t the first time you’ve been thrown out for being a bitch.

The all too shocking clip below:

Oh wait…this just in, WNBC News Anchor Sue Simmons has a response:
