Joan Rivers Messed With the Wrong People

by Ivy Jacobson

Apparently, Joan Rivers is just old and doesn't care anymore. She's now throwing major shade at the best of them (hello, Jennifer Lawrence) and now, apparently, the youngest. Rivers shockingly made little North West her latest victim during a stand-up show on Jan. 17 in LA when Joan Rivers called North West "ugly." Oh no. She shouldn't have. She really shouldn't have. I've been truly scared of Kanye West ever since he unleashed the angriest Kraken on Jimmy Kimmel on Twitter — so either he's carefully calculating the perfect storm against Rivers, or he's choosing not to address it.

During Rivers' show, she explained how she and the Kardashian family share E! as a TV network for their shows, Fashion Police and Keeping Up With the Kardashians. She said she saw Kim Kardashian and North come into the office on one occasion and remarked to the crowd, "That baby is ugly… I’ve never seen a six-month-old so desperately in need of a waxing." Yikes. It's one thing to mock someone's dress, but an adorable baby and her eyebrows are quite another.

Twitter commentary ranged from the funny:

To the appalled:

Kardashian already lashed out at Twitter followers who accused her of waxing North's eyebrows once, so I hope the poor thing doesn't grow up with some eyebrow-phobia. Leave North West's eyebrows alone (said Chris Crocker-style). She's a 7-month-old baby who is getting cuter everyday. Not cool, Joan.

Hopefully when North has developed more motor skills and has learned to speak, she'll come up with a sassy retort of her own. And when she gets even older and makes her first red carpet appearance, she will stun in whatever custom ensemble she's wearing by Uncle Ricardo Tisci, and her brows will, too.
