Open Post: Hosted By Margaret Cho Confirming That Joan Rivers Drank Wine Out Of A Starbucks Cup During “Fashion Police”
A few years ago, the late, great Joan Rivers’ daughter Melissa Rivers claimed that Joan used to drink a little morning time Chardonnay out of a coffee cup while filming E!’s Fashion Police at 7 in the morning. Margaret Cho went on the PEOPLE podcast and backed Melissa up. Margaret worked with Joan on Fashion Police and she explained that they would film at “really weird” hours in order to cover the previous evening’s award show. Like at 4:00 AM. And while the other hosts would chug coffee to wake their asses up, Ms. Joan, who passed away in 2014 at the age of 81 (her face was only 17), opted for something a little more creative; she’d empty out her giant Starbucks cup and fill it with white wine. All the better to shit on celebrity fashion with, my dear!
Amy Poehler Is Directing And Starring In A Movie Called “Wine Country” For Netflix
Amy Poehler’s directorial debut will be in a Netflix comedy which, according to The Hollywood Reporter, is about a group of “longtime friends who go to Napa for a weekend getaway to celebrate a 50th birthday“ and for some reason it’s not called White Girls (And Maya Rudolph) Trip. Seems like a missed opportunity to me but they’re going with Wine Country as the title. In addition to directing, Amy will also be producing and is cramming as many of her lady comedy cohorts into the cast as she can.
