“I’m just gonna say it wasn’t a match on a lot of levels,” Rivers told Kotb, also saying that Fashion Police will return to airwaves:
“We were a family, cast and crew . . . and we went back too soon. And just like a family, when the matriarch dies, the sisters started fighting; and someone tried to marry in — not a great match, live and learn. ‘Fashion Police’ was a little jewel and it was the last piece I had of my mother . . . I felt like all these people were so out of control, including the person who made the allegation about racism. They took the last thing I had and smashed it.”
I’m all for honoring the legacy of Joan Rivers, but Fashion Police—a show that barely cared about paying its writers—might not be the best way to do it.

Well, this is grim: Two of
Johnny Depp’s pet dogs face potential euthanasia because the actor smuggled them into Australia—where he’s shooting
Pirates of the Caribbean 5: Drown Me Before There’s Another Sequel—and failed to observe the country’s 10-day pet quarantine law.
“Australian officials say Johnny and Amber Heard failed to declare [Yorkshire Terriers] Boo and Pistol when they arrived on a private jet last month,” reports TMZ. “Under Australian law the dogs are supposed to be quarantined for a minimum of 10 days … just to make sure they’re not carrying any foreign diseases into the fragile ecosystem.”
Australia’s Agriculture minister has given Depp and Heard until Saturday to get the dogs out of the country. [TMZ]
Kim Richards of
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has been charged with public intoxication, resisting arrest and battery of a cop following her early morning, April 16 episode at the Beverly Hills Hotel, during which a drunk Kim—who now claims she was distraught after watching the
RHOBH reunion (same)—was thrown out of a restaurant and arrested for disorderly conduct. She then, at the police station, kicked a cop. In for a penny, in for a pound, as they say. [
