Actually, QVC does sell items that support charities at times. In fact, right now on their home page, they are talking about Friday and Pink Ribbono Beauty & Jewelry benefitting the Breast Cancer research Foundation.. One of the many items is a Marie Osmond doll. Nothing of Joan's listed, though. http://www.qvc.com/cgen/render.aspx?qp=promo|pink_ribbon&rewrite=no&cm_sp=VIEWALL-_-END-_-DEPT

How did I miss that on Chelsea Lately?) I dunno, Costa. You're just lucky, I guess.

Sea, I meant I don't believe Joan donates any of her earnings from QVC to charity.

That wasn't the interview. That was the opening bit on Ellen's show (where they were basically parodying themselves). Melissa can't act, either, even when she's acting out what she actually did! There was a sit-down interview with both of them and Ellen. That's what I missed and wished I'd caught.

I also have to say, anyone accusing the two still playing Apprentice of being "mean girls" should pay attention to the two of THESE women on Ellen. I'm sorry, but I didn't find Joan amusing. And I think she owes Brande an apology for calling her stupid yet again.

Well, but Brande... umm, "forgoo"??? Let's just say that Joan just may have a point.

When someone misspeaks it doesn't make them stupid, IMO

According to examples used above in posts about your children in school situations..... if your child made an error in speaking or in use of vocabulary would you be ok with kids on the playground calling him/her names for that mistake? I find that to be blatant bully behavior. Just because you can get a few laughs out of it and call yourself a comedian doesn't make it right IMO

I don't find any of them to be particularly respectful to any other one of them.

I think the most disturbing thing was the laughter from the audience while Joan was being quite rude. They were almost encouraging her. I do not find her to be funny. And based on her actions (and those of her daughter's) on this show, she will never ever get a dime from me for anything. Ever. (I would have thought the two of them might have been a bit more dignified, or even a tad bit remorseful, but instead they were blatantly gleeful and rude.) And LOL, Scooter and Stacey. I'd tell you what my nickname was in high school but I'd never live it down. Suffice it to say that I mispronounced one word, and then another word was misheard, and my family never let me live it down. Since I know what my IQ is, I can guarantee that I am not stupid (Scooter, you be nice, now! ).

Thanks for posting the Ellen clip, Aurora. Joan was a hoot and Ellen was obviously enjoying her!

I could live with never seeing either of them again. I used to think Joan was a commedienne. Now I see her caustic remarks are not tongue in cheek. So I no longer find her the least bit amusing. No matter what Brande does or doesn't do in this life, I will always have a lot more respect for her than someone like Melissa. And that is a lot because I do not like how the porn industry has influenced our way of life. I really hope Joan stays home this Sunday but I am afraid that will be too much to hope for.

Cost, how much money have you given to Joan before all this? I don't think I have ever bought anything that she has sold. It does bring up an interesting conversation. Is 'insult comedy' funny? Are people like Don Rickles, the insult dog, Joan Rivers and others that poke fun at others bullies? Is there a difference betwen 'going for the laugh' (which i believe Joan was on Ellen) and what some of the celebrities have said to one another during the course of the show?

Oooh Gidget... "caustic". What a perfect word! Annie, nothing. But now I never EVER will. I will boycott anything that has anything to do with those two women, including any TV shows they may be on. I think there is a line between insult comedy and what Joan is doing. She's being vindictive, and that's not insult comedy. The insult dog? He made fun of everyone and everything. And while he was occasionally offensive, it was all tongue-in-cheek. I saw way too much of Joan sticking out her tongue on Ellen, thinking she was being cute. And she wasn't. She was caustic and rude, and I'm done with both of them.

It is a great question/discussion Annie. One that has many different sides/opinions I am sure. For me, one of my pet peeves in working with the youth of America daily is how quick they are to call names. It makes me crazy. They don't even always mean it in a combative way, but go for the class laugh, which I think causes more trauma to another person to not just be called a name but have people laugh at them over it. I always call kids on it, of course, I also call kids on saying things are "gay" or "retarded" Don't even get me started on that pet peeve! Maybe because of the hollywood humor through the years of this type of behavior it is a lost cause. Many people think stuff like that is funny.....
