In the resurfaced clip, she even points out the gays in question:“Watch the #Gay men get quiet!!” #JoanRivers #Comedy #LMFAO #JoanRiversWasRight #StandUp #JoanRiversTikTok #LOL #LMAO “Either [gay men] or strong women,” she adds.Even Babs caught a stray, with the comic joking, “You can never say anything to gay men either about Barbra Streisand being ugly or Princess Diana.”Despite the combined talents of Greg Berlanti and Katherine Hahn, the much-anticipated show hit a roadblock.The princess was, of course, beloved by gay men in part for her advocacy during the AIDS crisis.
She treated men suffering from HIV/AIDS with dignity and respect when many were afraid to be in the same room as patients at all.
She even personally opened the first AIDS ward in Britain in 1987.Rivers reasons for hating her can’t quite leverage themselves against the reasons to love her, but she held them all the same.Among her reasons were that the princess “didn’t know when the good times were with her.”“‘I’m not happy, I’m not happy, I’m not happy.'” Rivers mocked with her tongue out. “She was tall, she was thin, she was gorgeous, she was young, she was rich, she had a husband who didn’t want to sleep with her.
She had a crown!”This was far from Rivers’ first time throwing shots at Diana posthumously. As a friend of now-King Charles and Camila, she was vocally critical of Diana as Charles’ ex-wife.
