Joan Rivers, born Joan Alexandra Molinsky, was a comedic force of nature who carved her name in American entertainment history. Her career spanned decades, encompassing stand-up routines, television hosting, and even writing.
Rivers' rise to prominence began in the vibrant New York comedy scene of the 1960s. Sharing the stage with legends like Woody Allen and Richard Pryor, she honed her signature style - sharp wit laced with self-deprecating humor and a healthy dose of celebrity barbs. Her big break came with appearances on "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson." Recognition of her talent, Carson became a mentor, but their relationship later turned sour due to Rivers' decision to host her rival program.
Undeterred, Rivers became a trailblazer for women in late-night television. In 1986, she shattered glass ceilings by becoming the first female host of a network late-night talk show, "The Late Show with Joan Rivers." Though the show was short-lived, it paved the way for future generations of female comedians. She later hosted her own successful daytime talk show, "The Joan Rivers Show," which garnered her a Daytime Emmy Award.
Beyond hosting duties, Rivers was a prolific writer, penning several books that showcased her humor and unfiltered observations. She also dabbled in acting, appearing on shows like "The Love Boat" and even lending her voice to characters in animated films like "Shrek 2."
However, her red-carpet interviews truly cemented Rivers' pop culture legacy. Armed with her quick wit and signature red carpet fashion, she wasn't afraid to ask celebrities sharp, sometimes uncomfortable questions. Though often outrageous and bordering on the offensive, her commentary was undeniably entertaining, turning her into a red carpet icon.
Joan Rivers' legacy is complex. She was admired for her sharp wit and unapologetic humor but also criticized for pushing boundaries and occasionally crossing the line. Regardless of the perspective, one thing remains undeniable: Joan Rivers was a comedic pioneer who broke barriers, paved the way for future female comedians, and left an indelible mark on American pop culture.

Elegance and Quality
You got that right
She worked hard in a lot of dives to build her career and achieve her success.
She earned every thing she had!
Warmth, light, and classic elegance! We miss you, Joan...
She was a super star in everyway
You got that right
I learned that for Thanksgiving She would include,by invitation,a few Homeless ppl. It was a great gesture.
Joan lived life to the fullest and it showed in her beautiful home. 💝
This apartment has always just made my heart leap, I absolutely love everything about it! Nobody did it like Joan! We miss you so much, your humor is much needed these days :(
Like Zsa Zsa, she epitomized vulgar shallow values.
The craftsmanship in that apartment is amazing.
I don’t think there are still people who could do it, hopefully one or two still left who can produce such beauty with their hands.
Some old buildings are almost works of art and it’s sad when they get knocked down to put up concrete and glass square boxes.
It must have taken a whole team of people to keep the apartment that immaculate.
Lovely place for a lady who made so many people laugh and her videos continue to do so. Thank you Joan.
Beautiful and exquisite, classic Hollywood home, of the ages. 👍
It really is!
its new york city not hollywood
@@rangerboy7877Joan was part Hollywood, but, very New York.
The Person who purchased Her Penthouse, completely stripped it down to the bare bones.
Absolutely beautiful
Joan was a great lady and is sadly missed. She deserved everything she worked for and was a class act.
My goodness, what a palace!
Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful just like 👍🏾 Joan
Thank you! Cheers!
I loved Joan…brilliant, funny, and designer. Miss and love her.
I met Joan Rivers at QVC . I was invited to a party where she was attending.. lovely sweet woman.rip joan
Absolutely beautiful. I wish it was featured in Architectural Digest
The home was beyond magnificently decorated. The video was well written and beautifully narrated.
New subscriber
Awesome class. Royalty interior. I couldn't have sold it if I were Melissa. It's all that she had left of her Mother.
❤Absolutely gorgeous apartment❤She was the best❤Iconic comedian❤love from Finland❤
I miss you Joan
I love Joan Rivers and I miss her very much. Once in a party during the 90's in NYC, while she was attending to close friends at her fabulous penthouse, she told me that her mansion once was owned by members of the J.P. Morgan family.
❤BRASIL❤.
Joan did very well! Beautiful and çlassy!
Couldn't agree more!
Shes the one and only miss her everyday the best best best
Wow, just wow! ❤
Gorgeous, she had the perfect blend of cozy home feel and lavish elegance
Intriguing floor plan what with the little balcony or gallery areas looking down into the two-story-high rooms. --- People may not know that Joan Rivers had a college degree in Anthropology. --- In a fascinating interview with Charlie Rose (also on You Tube) Joan Rivers talked about how she and her husband Edgar would go out on Fridays to buy books and that if one of them was interested in a book, the cost didn't matter. Ms. River said that the book buying was their "charity". I think she may have meant in how they were supporting bookstores. I didn't see many books in the apartment featured here and I suspect Joan Rivers gave many books away over the years. Since she kept remarkably detailed accounts of her performances, I wouldn't be surprised if she kept a record of the books she read. Wouldn't it be fun to know what Joan Rivers during her lifetime. I imagine it would be an impressive list.
She had lavish taste
Melissa has a beautiful home in LA. She auctioned off most of the furnishings and decor and sold the NYC penthouse I’m sure she did pretty well for herself
I don't think she's sold this apartment, it's sat on the market for many years. It's too ornate and needs to be completely gutted and renovated.
I saw Melissa’s LA house on a design show . It was being redone and I have not seen the final result
Lovely absolutely Lovely
I THANK YOU FOR YOUR GIFT OF LAUGHTER !!!
🕊️Rest In Peace🕊️
🌹🦋🌹🦋🌹🦋🌹🦋🌹🦋🌹🦋
Very elegant, great taste
Thank you! Cheers!
Breathtaking❤
Simply spectacular!! 🦋🥰❤️
Thank you so much!
Wow" that's the best 😍😍😍
"Pre war" is the ultimate NYC.
We enjoyed that very much.
Glad you enjoyed it
Absolutely beautiful !!
I had no idea how her residence looked.. Why didn’t her daughter continue to live there ??
Because young people do not appreciate this kind of architecture, decor, environnement. It's a special style like you found in Paris or in a castle.
Joan’s daughter Melissa was raised in California and was attending university when her father died. This home is in New York City. I don’t believe Melissa ever lived there although she may have briefly. When Joan died, Melissa was a divorced mother established with her own home and career in California. Melissa’s home in California was in a far less formal style as was Joan’s country home in Connecticut.
Unbelievable decorating accomplishment!
😍 Spectacular 🙂
The main living space had served as the original house's ballroom and had been on the building's second floor before the penthouse was added on and it was relocated. I remember seeing on some TV show (probably here on YT) Joan wanting to sell some of the decorative items she had bought as antique - to find out they were modern reproductions and worth a small fraction of what she'd paid - she was not pleased. Can't say I blame her.
This video lifted my spirits after having watched a CZcams video showing "affordable" apartments in London, full of black mould rotting windows and so on. Either way, I couldn't contemplate living at either extreme.
That is absolutely gorgeous. I love it.
I was surprised it's so over decorated and garish. I thought Joan would be more sophisticated. Thanks for the look!
Beautiful!
62nd between 5th & Madison.
I wanted to see the kitchen as it was when she lived there.
Me encantaba era facinante y q clase tenia😊
Stunning apartment. I read that the buyer of it striped everything and turned it into a white box.
I hope that’s not true. What a shame that would be. Miss her!
I love her photo at 7:32.
Yeah!
She went through a lot to earn every penny. She earned it all with hard work. She was funny, and honest.
❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤❤I LOVED IT !!! SHE WAS DIVINE!!! LOVE HER SHOWS SHE WAS A GREAT LADY, AND SO IS HER DAUGHTER.....
She was actually very fond of Mrs. Spencer
How is it that nobody seems to remember Rivers' endorsement of Donald Trump, claiming that as a businessman he would "know how to get things done"?
She was blinded by her time on the Apprentice, which she won. I find it hard to admit now...but I was also a huge fan of the Celebrity Apprentice show. He honestly didn't seem that bad back then. I didn't pay attention to news stories about him (if there were any at the time).
@@justinwilliams7290 Thank you for your considered reply, which makes some sense. And however tempting, it wouldn't be fair to speculate as to how Joan would have reacted to the way Trump tormented Kathy Griffith like that
A nice place.
Q departamento maravilloso eso es clase😊
Joan’s Russian heritage gave her a regal decorating style.
I just couldn't live in a place like that. It's rococo and much too large for my taste. The only room that appealed to me is the library. Joan herself was an absolute hoot, though.
It’s over the top.
Very nice.
This must be the place that really didn’t have a normal kitchen, it had a micro kitchen where you mostly just could heat things up or make eggs etc. she did not like to cook so this was fine with her.
Loved Joan, apt is gaudy
Loved Joan Rivers.
She really believed in free speech.
Remember her saying she have parties and she have Tiffany what nots around apartment.they would just go missing. Like so many of those townhouses, the kitchen was size of butler’s pantry. Large enough to warm food for parties.
I can't stand when people swoop in and purchase only to flip.
Joan reminds me of Iwona Trump, her home style
The way that joan rivers had , it was magnificent an opulent , but if it was transformed into something contemporary , it doesn't keep the same value or specialist that she once had , so whoever purchased that and modernized , it should really be ashamed themselvesthey really need to turn it back into what it once was
It is a beautiful apartment, however the pink and all the ruffles need too go. It is exquisite though.
The woman who knew too much.
Like Big Mike…
Did I miss the kitchen?
She died right after making a comment about the Obamas
can we talk?😏
If it's been updated for a more contemporary lifestyle, I'm sure it's lost all its architectural detail.
😳
It’s too bad she didn’t age gracefully instead of all that plastic surgery! She would still be alive if she didn’t let her vanity ruin her life
Joan did age Gracefully.. by choice, Cosmetic Surgery was just a part of her own Personal expression of Who she was and will always be.. especially for those of Us who’ve loved her n still Cherish the memories Joan gave us .. be Kind, life is shorter than you think♥️
I can't even imagine what the property taxes are for this place and the monthly dues for maintenance of the bldg.! Oh wait, I found it...$16,812 per month for monthly maintenance and $10,976 monthly tax bill. It's a shame she died the way she did and it could have been prevented. Otherwise she would still be with us.
Wish she was stilĺ hear ,she would have lots of jokes in this crazy times.But she would very sad hoow people are treating Jewish people.
Ok, looking at the floorplan, who designed this layout? Not a layout I'd want 🤷♀
It was designed many decades ago. Modern tastes in homes have changed a lot since then.
Were her belongings auctioned?
Yes
@@rocker76m88 When? Where? Thank you.
@@josealmeida76 I believe the auction is closed
@@rocker76m88 I would like to see the catalogue.
@@josealmeida76 Google it on Christie's
Twentieth Century excess
It's a shame her daughter Melissa got rid of everything soon as her mother passed she could have open a museum after selling the place her fans would pay to see her jewelry artwork and even furniture but Melissa only cared about the money
So you mentioned ,she was an actor, a writer etc but you forgot to mention a deranged interior designer. Truely grotesque
Great views but it's gimmicky. A large living area and smaller rooms squashed in. Like Greenvale in the '80's.
She was murdered with that procedure
Melissa is not a lavish style lady, this apartment complex was designed for her mother as she lived a lavish lifestyle with expensive taste, antique things, that’s not Melissa’s style. I wouldn’t like it either.
Joan lived a plastic surgery life, she was artificially enhanced made beautiful and the opulent style was artificial. She left Melissa a lot of money. Her grandson is rich too. She took care of her family. It’s a shame that she gone. Sometimes her mouth got her in trouble. I would nit want to visit her house I would feel out of place, as I’m a simple woman.
She did not own Fabergé eggs. These kinds of factual flubs drain from the video’s authenticity.
How do you know this?
She owned the original necklace with the miniature eggs. She loaned it to the museum that had an exhibit. I have a copy of the necklace she sold on QVC. Both were beautiful.
She owned Faberge items (picture frames) if I'm not mistaken.
What a dump
After being for sale for years it is now off the market for lack of interest.
sadly, as all previous luxury homes on the Upper East Side, it will be torn down and replaced with a luxury high rise tower
What happened to the contemporary buyer who wanted to give it a modernist 'refresh?'
I miss her bless her soul
that tablecloth in the entry way is horrible. Looks like it is from Micheals Craft store
