Joan Rivers and Kathy Griffin had a once in a lifetime type of friendship. The two comedic legends’ closeness was clearly shown both for the cameras and off the cameras. From television shows and red carpets to galas and even roasts, their bond appeared to be an irreplaceable one. After her friend’s passing, Kathy wrote a touching piece in the Los Angeles Times about Joan, saying “To see her do stand-up at 81—and an audience did, just the night before she underwent that procedure—was to witness a committed stand-up on a mission to make you laugh.” Griffin will now be joining the E! family as a new host of Fashion Police, along with celebrity stylist and TV personality Brad Goreski.
