On Twitter Watch, Joan Rivers wrote ' Joan_Rivers Saw Spider-man last night. Loved it! The only disappointment was: I was rooting for the villains as they had the better costumes. Joan_Rivers I'm so excited I'm finally going to see Spider-man the Musical tonight! And, I found shoes to match the safety helmet I have to wear.'

You've seen her on Broadway. You've seen her light up the screen as Kristen Bell's costar in the largely unseen art film 'When In Rome.' You've seen her passed out in various gutters throughout New York City. Now, Natalie Joy Johnson conquers the filthiest gutter of them all - Joe's Pub. Under the micro-managing direction of has-beenthat-never-was, John Hill (her co-star in 'bare: a pop opera written in lowercase letters') Ms. Johnson is on a mission to corrupt you, touch you 'down there', melt your heart, and pretty much f**k you up.

Growing up as the daughter of one of the most iconic comediennes of all time could not have been easy, yet Melissa Rivers has managed to carve her own place in the Hollywood landscape as a producer and television personality herself, coming after nearly a decade of co-hosting the red carpet fashion rundowns on E! and the TV GUIDE channel with her mother Joan. Her (mostly) behind-the-scenes work as a producer on E!'s weekly FASHION POLICE show starring Joan is just half of her duties, as she also stars in and produces the new WE reality series JOAN & MELISSA: JOAN KNOWS BEST? Also, she manages to find the time to be a single mom and confidant to her legendary mother - and clean up after camera crews. I was lucky enough to speak to Melissa over the weekend in anticipation of tonight's special edition FASHION POLICE: SCREEN ACTORS GUILD AWARDS on E! and Tuesday's JOAN KNOWS BEST? on WE. Also, be sure to check out my weekend feature interview with Joan Rivers, as well.
