You people who berate Joan Rivers; she is a put-down artist, that is her MO, her gimic- like Don Rickles. Either you like that kind of comedy or you don't. That doesn't mean she is like that in person. She is not. She is a very nice lady who has worked hard to get where she is. Of course she has had a lot of plastic surgery. So have a lot of other celebrities. At least she is honest enough to admit it. In a world that worships youth and beauty, how long do you think she would be around if she did not try to keep herself youthful and attractive?
