OMG- Joan Rivers!!

On Sunday I was at the NY Gift Show and I received a text that Joan Rivers was in my booth and dying to meet me. I rushed back there to see her and she was swarming around the booth pulling jewelry. She apparently is a BIG FAN!! She was super sweet and slightly demure which I know is surprising to think of Joan being demure but there it is…

For everyone who hasn’t seen her movie ..you should! It’s incredibly funny but has a slightly depressing undertone, partly due to her never ending driven nature to be in the public eye and get work. Unfortunately, Joan Rivers has never been given the credit for paving the way for tons of women comedians; since her debut on the Johnny Carson Show. She fought hard to create a new model and succeeded. I don’t think she has any regrets.
