Joan Rivers has said she was shocked to be kicked off today’s edition of ITV1 talk show Loose Women after she swore live on air - an outburst that prompted almost 50 complaints from shocked daytime viewers.

Rivers, 75, stunned the all-female Loose Women presenting team of Jackie Brambles, Coleen Nolan, Jane McDonald and Carol McGiffin when she described Hollywood actor Russell Crowe as a “fucking shit”.

Probably not the best move eh?!?

“I thought there was a seven-second delay,” Rivers told MediaGuardian.co.uk. “They earlier showed a picture of a man with an obvious erection under his coat so I thought it would be all right.”

“I have won an Emmy, been nominated for a Tony award, done every show and become an icon and when people ask me what is left in my career I have always said I don’t know, but I have never been forcibly thrown out of a TV studio. It is another milestone,” she added.

When told how many complaints the comment had received, Rivers said: “This is ITV - I want a recount.”

Hey, at least she can have a sense of humor about it. I’ll give her credit for that much.
