Joan Rivers, Comedy Icon And Straight Ally, Dead At 81
Joan Rivers, a comedian who could truly be described as legendary and a longtime ally to the LGBT community, has died at age 81 in New York’s Mt. Sinai hospital, reports Variety.
“She passed peacefully at 1:17 p.m. surrounded by family and close friends,” her daughter, Melissa, said in a statement. “My mother’s greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is
difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon.”
More to come.
