We all worked on 'the career.' As if it were a totally separate entity in the room.

Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work is full of all kinds of layers and insight into the world of celebrity, women entertainers, groundbreaking comedy, workaholics, and the self-absorbed. One of those layers is Joan's only child, daughter Melissa, a celebrity now in her own right and every bit as sharp as her mother. This is a serious profile of someone who spent her life trying to be anything but.

If you watch this for anything, check out Melissa's thoughts on being raised by one of the most famous female celebrities to ever live.


"This business, you are mud your whole life," Joan explains when she talks about decades of rejection. And one of her funniest, oldest jokes about men and valuing a woman's intelligence: "No man ever put his hand up a woman's dress looking for a library card." Lol.

Thanks for your candor and rest in peace, Joan Rivers.

Tweetle, she has tweeted Jamie far more than 3 times. If you look at her timeline, it's more like 15 times, AND she removed some of the weirder tweets over the weekend.

PJ's momma said...

Actually, I looked again and I see 19 tweets from Milo to Jamie (with Kate mixed in two of them) and I know she deleted at least 2 over the weekend. That's a lot of tweets directly to someone she does not know at all.

Jeanne said...

I don't question why Kate and Jamie's tweets are so inane. That's what I would expect from those two. I question why Jamie is on twitter after all these years that Kate has been using twitter. There is some ulterior motive. There always is.

I would not be surprised if, in the future, TFW will say that she did it all by herself while battling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia just to get sympathy

Look out, she's taking a page out of Milo's book.

PJ's momma said...

Rhymes, sorry, I was talking about Milo. She removed some of her creepier tweets, the ones where she said she 'needed to get with' Jamie to talk. She's tweeted Jamie over 20 times. Ew.

AuntieAnn, I had read about the suicides and reason for comedy, but not the grave visit. How tragic. Probably more common than one would think or hope...some things are truly difficult for most of us to forgive.

Child abuse being one of them. Sometimes I think forgiveness is far overrated.

Auntie, sometimes you make me laugh aloud.

This time (36) you squeezed my heart.

I believe Mel was talking about Kate's number of tweets. That's the way it appeared to me:

I'm with whoever said it above....there must be something derogatory coming down the pike for TFW. She is spending *way* too much time trying to prove what a bestie she is with Jamie.

PJ's momma said...

Oops, Tweet-le, I am so sorry. I was reading on my phone while the dog got her teeth cleaned and I didn't see that. My apologies!
But Milo is still a creeper!

Wowser said...

Oh god! Did they actually quote Milo?? She will officially be an immovable barnacle on TFW's ass now......although we know she is so far up it she probably has brain damage from oxygen deprivation...ugh

Exactly. I was thinking of what Richard Belzer & his brother went through...and the G kids, as well as so many more.

Tucker's Mom said...

Watching DWTS and OMG, what did Julianne Hough do to piss off the hair and makeup people???
Zoinks!

The "do" is some mashup of high school class photos from the 1960's!
