Joan Rivers thrown off TV's Loose Women set for four-letter outburst live on air

Joan Rivers has always had a rather colourful turn of phrase.

It just doesn’t usually get an airing on live daytime television.

But yesterday the 75-year-old American comedienne let loose on the ITV chat show Loose Women.

Perhaps taking inspiration from the title of the show, she let herself go, describing the actor Russell Crowe as a ‘piece of f****** s***’.

As her fellow panellists giggled nervously, an unabashed Miss Rivers explained she
thought her expletives would be ‘bleeped out’.

Instead, ITV executives bleeped out Miss Rivers herself, hauling her off the show when it went to a commercial break.

Yesterday, Miss Rivers, who was appearing on Loose Women to promote her theatre
show in London, said she was ‘thrilled’ to have been hauled off during a commercial
break.

‘They whipped me off. It’s the first time in 40 years,’ she said. ‘I’m thrilled – everyone keeps saying to me, “What more is there in your career? You’ve got every award there is”.

‘I’m certainly not mellowing with age. Viewers, people have heard the word f***.

‘People have heard it in Sex And The City, it’s such a common word.’

Miss Rivers made her comments when telling the other panellists about how she
interviews celebrities at the Oscars ceremony each year.

‘I enjoy it when they’re nice, and you know what I’m saying. You get someone like Russell Crowe, and you want to say to the camera he is a piece of – get ready to bleep this – f****** s***!’

Responding to gasps from the shocked presenters and audience, Miss Rivers added: ‘I did say get ready to bleep!’

Presenter Jackie Brambles replied: ‘But we haven’t got a bleeper – we’re live!’

Yesterday an ITV spokesman said: ‘We would like to apologise to Loose Women viewers for the inappropriate language used by Joan Rivers on today’s show.

'Loose Women guests are always briefed that it is a live daytime show and as such are reminded not to swear or use inappropriate language.
