Joan Rivers' plastic surgeon is The Joker

I'm the first to admit that reality TV is among some of my guilty pleasures.  I would like to think, however, that I'm one of those people who only watches the "good" reality shows.  Of course, that's a matter of opinion in and of itself.  But this is my blog, and only my opinion counts, so that means my opinions are fact.

Let's restate:  I like watching
some reality shows, but the ones I watch are the good ones!

The Apprentice is one of the shows that I used to watch, but for some reason, the whole "how is it that yet
another Rhodes Scholar is unable to successfully complete a task that Cub Scouts normally do?" got really old, really quick. Then, The Don & Mark Burnett changed it up by replacing Ivy League egocentrics with even bigger egocentric c-list celebrities (Gene Simmons, Andrew "Dice" Clay).  What have we got? Celebrity Apprentice.  OK, the first season was barely watchable, but we're on Season 2 and guess what (surprise, surprise)?  This batch of miscreants can barely get up in the morning without their bevy of assistants, much less stand up to Trump's ridiculous tasks or his mongo-ego.

And thus, the hilarity ensues...

The most awesome thing I've seen from the unavoidable bits and pieces of this season's Celebrity Apprentice is the one and only Joan Rivers.  She's been a side-show for years.  Remember when she used to do the Red Carpet for E!, but then f-ed everything up so terribly, that she was exiled to the TV Guide Channel?  Does anyone actually
get the TV Guide Channel?  Well, both she and her creepy daughter, Melissa, are two of the contestants on the show.  But Joan is a rare treat.  She's obnoxious, she's clearly suffering from Alzheimer's, she's got a nasally New York accent, but the pièce de résistance is the fact that this woman has clearly hired The Joker as her plastic surgeon.

She's apparently been "fired" from the show, but check out this clip and tell me that she's not The Joker.  Joan Rivers is one of the most ridiculous people I have ever seen in my life.  I can't stop staring!  How can anyone think this looks good?  I mean, at least she had it done.  I certainly feel better about my own looks knowing that I'll never be that creepy looking.  WHEW!
