In today’s WWD, there was a report on a party held this past Tuesday at the Four Seasons restaurant, to celebrate a new book about Jackie Kennedy, “What Jackie Taught Us” by Tina Santi Flaherty.

In addition to Ron Gallela, Oleg Cassini, Arnold Scaasi, Susan Lucci, and Josie Natori, Joan Rivers was also in the crowd, reportedly to “deliver the laughs, despite standing near an oversized 1963 photo of Kennedy at her late husband’s funeral” according to the paper.

At one point, the plastic surgery- enhanced comic observed, “By the way, Jackie Kennedy caught in a rainstorm looked better coming in than I looked going out.” Well Joan, you got that right. And sadly, the same thing can be about all of us mortals.
