good morning everyone - it's friday! below i've got funny lady joan rivers (looking more and more like 'the joker' - her smile has been frozen in time) who stopped by martha stewart's daytime talk show yesterday (some of their quips are posted below) where the two ladies had fun playing with matzo - coating it in chocolate & nuts! i know most people find joan to be the most annoying lady alive but she has done so much work over the years (yes that kind of work too...) and she's had her share of ups and downs but joan is a total trooper & a great comedian (plus she turns 75 in june) i wish we'd see her back on the red carpet with her daughter melissa rivers - it was always way awkward & uncomfortable yet i loved watching celebrities squirm when they were forced to deal with her! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
on matzo and aging:
jr: can i just say - every time i see matzo it reminds me of my chest. flat and brown spots.
ms: joan! i don't know when women start to make fun of themselves...i wouldn't talk about that stuff ever!
jr: but your body's in better shape. you were a model, bitch.
on her upcoming trip to china:
ms: why are you going to china?
jr: again, a mistake. olivia newton-john called me and she said, 'this is for breast cancer, would you like to walk the great wall?'...i thought she said 'walk the great mall,' and i said, 'you got it!'
ms: did you learn any chinese?
jr: yes, i learned one phrase - 'i am single. are you?' i also think it's important to learn, 'where is gucci?'
on her love for sweets:
ms: you like sweets?
jr: look at my ass.
on the chocolate matzo:
jr: moses would have loved this!
on her matzo house:
ms: are they [the audience] laughing at your gingerbread roof?
jr: yes! they're laughing and i'm not even naked!
ms: i've made one side of my little roof, and it's very neat and perfect.
jr: and i've done mine free form. i think of myself as a modern artist.

hahahaha - that is so hilarious. Joan & Martha are not two people I would have put in a room together!
I like both of them. Joan *is* such a trooper. So is Marta, actually.

I love it - Jr's self-deprecating messiness is the perfect foil for Martha's "got-to-do-it-perfectly-every-time" craziness!!
