Joan Rivers daughter, Melissa isn't happy with the way Kathy Griffin exited Fashion Police,saying she shit over her mum's legacy..During an interview with Today's Hoda Kotb ,she admitted Kathy wasn't the best replacement for her late mother, Joan Rivers.
"It wasn't a match on a lot of levels,My biggest complaint was the feeling that she kind of s--t all over my mother's legacy in her statement on leaving, and I know that was not an intentional reading of it, but that's how I felt. That was my takeaway, by [her] calling the comedy and the style of it old-fashioned. It's like, I understand what you're doing, you're trying to save yourself, but don't crap all over my mother to do it.""That was very personal. But as a professional, that was her choice, that's what she did. No hard, no foul, moving on." Kathy had said after her exit....
…There is a chasm of difference between making a joke about Miley Cyrus wearing duct tape over her nipples in public — which I think is totally fair game — and simply looking at a photo of her on a red carpet and saying she is ugly or a bad singer or pathetic or something like that…Look, God knows my — how shall I say? — repertoire over all these years on TV and live touring has used some language I wouldn't use today, but people just aren't into that stuff anymore and I get it. Name-calling and alliteration with no comedic context is simply the lowest hanging fruit.
