Chaos on 6th Avenue

Outside the Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Chelsea about an hour ago there was a commotion that only a high class hooker, a Jesus freak, or Joan Rivers could cause. Turns out she was accosting people to ask them "Who do you think should be the next couple to break up?" As you can see from the expressions of the folks on 6th Avenue and in the nearby diner, nobody's quite sure what to do about the situation and at least one lunch was ruined.

I vote for Joan and Melissa to break-up next!

Eeek! That's dangerously near my apartment. Maybe I should get a room in midtown until she's back in the cage.

I would like for the stitches holding her together to break up.

Its nice knowing that we have one less surgically mutilated death mask to worry about out here in L.A.

Poor Joan is one more lift away from sporting a goatee.

Oh, grow up! Joan is fa-a-a-a-bulous! :)

I used to be a big Rivers fan, but she stopped being fabulous and turned scary. I now understand why her husband killed himself to get away from her.

I think its LONG overdue to have Gee Dub and Laura Bush break up. That thorazine should have worn off by now, erasing the glassy-eyed grin from her perfectly smooth, otherwise exressionless face. I can't wait for her tell-all book and interview with Diane Sawyer.

I agree with Paul that the Shinybabydollface lady needs to be put back in her cage till Oscar night.

I'd like to nail her daughter Melissa's feet to a board and force feed Foie-Gras down her throat..if it can get past her botoxed yap. Annoying Biatches!!

Agree with Matty - Towleroad is so current it's now hourly!

... and oddly enough, there wasn't even a camera crew! Joan is just walking around NY with a microphone.
She looks like my dog when he would stick his face out the window as we drove along the freeway... minus the slobber of course.

Oh, Andy--remember that all "real" New Yorkers use "Avenue of the Americas" instead of "6th Avenue"!
heh heh heh...

The ruined lunch....was that your own?

Kids--I was there. She really is Madam without Wayland Flowers and without the sticks us her ass (as far as I could see). I told her "George Bush and Dick Cheney". She laughed--as much as her poor face would let her. Freak.

Haaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaa!! That's just what she looks like! I was trying to think...

Poor thing. She is trying so hard to remain relevant.
Posted by: orbicon | Jan 11, 2005 9:07:44 PM
relevant, hell! She's trying so hard to remain ALIVE!
Posted by: M@ | Jan 11, 2005 9:29:09 PM
Maybe it's time for her to break up with her plastic surgeon ! She looks like an hurricane is blowing on her face ! Mummy I am scared ...
Posted by: Steph & Alek | Jan 12, 2005 9:57:18 AM
Are you sure it wasn't one of those wax figures with some type of audio devise inside for the sound? I'm sure her mouth didn't move while talking with all that plastic surgery and botox!
