LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Caption Joan RiversShe slams Victoria Beckham and even pokes fun at Oprah.
In her one-woman show, “Joan Rivers: A Work in Progress by a Life in Progress,” Joan Rivers takes aim at Hollywood. And as Access Hollywood’s Maria Menounos found out in an exclusive interview, the years have definitely not softened Joan.
In fact, she even offered a brand new look at an age-old feud with fellow icon, the late Johnny Carson.
“I don’t know what the hell I did to that man!” Joan told Maria. “I think he was a son of a b****.”
Joan’s battle with Johnny began over 20 years ago, when the comedienne dared leave as Johnny’s permanent guest host of “The Tonight Show” to star in her own show for Fox.
“When I got my show on Fox, we never spoke again,” Joan added.
Joan told Maria her battle with Johnny is just one of her many dramatic lifetime experiences she shares in her amazing stage show at LA’s Geffen Playhouse.
The comedy show, which Joan not only wrote, but also stars in, is a fitting peak to the Geffen’s season highlighting women in theater.
Set right before a big Hollywood awards show, Joan offers audiences an introspective look at aging, going through life’s ups and downs and being a woman in Hollywood.
The show will wrap up its run at the Geffen Playhouse this weekend. For information on tickets, CLICK HERE!
